Definitely quantity over quality there Warnock

Will watch the football and F1, but 2 duff fixtures and a race when virtually everything has been decided Laugh

£40 for 8 lessons spread over 2 months seems v dece value. Cheap enough to just fire into it, just wondering if anyone can speak for the quality of the courses they offer?

Did a few, years ago, like a long time yonder. Okay, the Indian cuisine one I did, or can remember, was basically an Indian mum getting us to bring in the ingredients and she'd walk us through a curry, in the kitchen at Gillespie's.
Folks attending were pretty normal, but can't imagine the zoomers you'd get now!

Grey suit, white shirt and a dark knitted tie. Might need to stick with black shoes though.

Aye, they are quality. I did some language and music classes with them.

Michelle Mone looks to be taking all the flak for the tory party dealing their pals on on ppe contracts.

It's a shame if it detracts from the rest getting it tight, but she's one of the most unpleasant people on earth. Have a pal who used to nanny for her kids and she says mone is a terrible human.

Especially pleasing that she jumped ship to England and the Tories and is now being hung out to dry as as she's just a jock at the end of the day.

See that yank cunt that killed Harry Dunn and fled didn't even turn up for sentencing and ended up with 8 months suspended for a year Oh Cleese

won't serve any time.

While the fleeing and short thrift towards the court stuff (all probably on the advice of counsel) is shite patter, I wouldn't expect a middle-aged mother with no record to get a custodial sentence for what basically amounts to a tragic accident. Heart-breaking for his family but it's really just one of those occasions where he's drawn one of life's short straws.

On a lighter note, I had birds chucking themselves at me yesterday! Crowe

First of all, as I turned off the main road to go into work I had to make a very swift tirn of the wheel to avoid squashing an already fucked but not yet deid seagull, on it's back, wing askew and one leg waving back and forth. Then on a back road between Kennoway and Markinch I had to break for a raptor of sorts, a big yin, some sort of hawk tried to swoop down on some carrion just as I came round a bend in the road. On the A92 heading back to Edinburgh, somewhere in teh void that is Lochghelly/Cowdenbeath I had two separate wood pigeons just evade the van across my field of vision! They're mental! I 'll give them the benefit of the doubt with the low winter's sun making it difficult on this occasion but otherwise I'd say they were just plain dumb!

Was listening to a few tunes on YT while wasting my morning there, and put on 'Gimme Little Sign' but jumped back to another tab immediately, then I hear Chris Rock! wtf! Was a live version as introduced by I assume Mr Duran on Thee Mr.Duran Show. Hmmm, anyway good song.
