I'll no bother then.

Honestly fascinated by the complete drivel this man talks  

He is something else. Clearly searches for his name/handle on twitter and gets in spats with anyone who mentions him.

Quoting folk that call him Peter and saying, 'THAT'S MR HITCHENS TO YOU'.

Got to respect a man that just wants to sit and get into e-scraps.

Mak v MR HITCHENS at some Edinburgh festival event plz

Mikey, this is a weird question, but I had a flashback earlier today and wanted to clear something up - when you were at Stirling did you ever do a history module on twentieth-century Africa? Remembered a guy who looked vaguely how I remember you looking being absolutely buzzing when I shoehorned a picture of Bouzid into my Algeria presentation

Think I did actually

Can't remember Bouzid popping up at any stage but I didn't pay much attention at Uni.

Very upsetting if you have forgotten my insights into Algerian life

Forgotten just about everything. Used to live there and hardly remember anything about that

The boy on the mobility scooter while feeding the pigeons (this time) outside Farmfoods reminded me of Jacques Cousteau the other day.

It's as down to earth as you'll get round these parts. Apparently, back in the day the Rainbow used to shift near on 25 boxes of fish on a good Saturday.

You been to East Coast? Tremendous  

Rainbow used to be where you'd go to get your deep fried pizza at lunch time. Pretty fucking horrendous grub though.

They're out of order saying all the pubs are dangerous. Begbie set foot in one and didn't get assaulted...

The bad news just keeps coming in 2020.

There's actually a boy that used to start steaming out of every orifice when folk ordered a none alcoholic beverage in The Ship Inn. Told some young lad to fuck off out the pub unless he's ordering drink once

Probably would have killed him if he'd seen Francis sipping a Diet Coke.

Don't forget that it was a pint of Diet Coke from the gun, not even a can with a glass that he could pretend he was using as a mixer.

Haven't, but heard good things said. Jaz on the other hand must be a clear 4/4; that's rank btw!

Had a Jaz's once when I stayed in Mussy - it's shite.

Aye, Jaz's is rancid.

East Coast is on par with that one down at Newhaven Harbour where Harry Ramsden's used to be. All the fish is freshly caught.

Fish supper for under a tenner? St Andrews isn't far off; up it's arse these days. Haven't even bought chips out of tere in over a year.

£7.50 for a supper last time I went in I think. Too handy for stumbling along the road after an evening in the boozer
