This place has been slowly sinking since 2013, at this stage I'd take a holiday with the money you save from every pack.

The Lovely Fags thread won't let that happen mate. Go on, have a pop in there, make yourself comfy, you'll feel better trust me.

Back on Topic but tiny Triumphs, I recently have struggled to tie my own laces, I can't explain it more than my hands aren't great and I struggle with finer details. To a point I fell over at Trees because my shoes were so loose and a poor child thought Santa had injured himself. Got my Vans tied up today, took some work but yeah was sound

That's brilliant. I never manage to tie my shoes or boots tight enough, so have been wearing Skechers for goodness knows how long, apart from when I'm in my walking boots with Vicky.

Last pack I bought was in December 2019 when 20 Marlboro red cost about £9 or thereabouts. The fag counters are boarded up now, but I caught a glimpse of the price list the other day when they opened the cupboard to restock. £18.35 now for the same packet of fags. No way I could afford now to smoke 20 a day.

Whenever I want a 20 deck, I just get one of my mates to steal the whole meat section. The cashier is usually so flustered they forget I haven't paid.

They shut at 11, shall I meet you there in 10?

My first Novella officially goes live on June 18th.

Quick follow-up on this - Thanks to those who purchased and left reviews - very much appreciated. 204 sales and 2400 pages read so far.

Not the reason for the post though.

This guy has just agreed to read for the audiobook. Mental!

My nine year old son was never an outdoors kid. He’d rather stay at home and read, build something out of cardboard or create some films or graphics on his iPad. As such, he’s never wanted to learn to ride a bike. We’d buy him one every few years and he never gave a shit. Couldn’t balance, would immediately give up. Every time.

Next year, there’s a cycling proficiency class in school. We explained he’s going to be the only one who can’t do it already.

He asked for us to buy him a new bike. We started practicing today. I worried it would be a long summer, but he’s already nailed it! Cycling on his own, flying around. Can’t get him to come in!

We’re going to cycle down the shops together to steal some cigarettes.

I was the only person when I was in Year 6 who couldn't ride a bike. The entire class made our teacher take a full day out of our classes to teach me how to ride a bike even though I didn't do the cycling proficiency just so I could ride bikes in the summer with them. 

One of the best memories of my childhood. Also crashing into a hedge with most the school watching was half my swansong of being the class clown.

So Im on a diet (again), but doing fairly well this time. Im having meal replacement shakes for lunch, and I found some in Asda at £9 down from £15. Figured that was a good price so picked up 2 bags.

 

They rang up at £3.38 each, and the woman at the self checkout confirmed it for me. I was so happy I even paid for the meat.
