There's one on talk sport (I think it's for an on line greeting card company) and some woman says really, really, really, really, about a dozen times. Had to turn it off as I just couldn't bear it.

Yep, even with low expectancy of radio adverts that particular one stands out like a honeymooners k**b.

Clickbait

 

Headline is saw yesterday was 'Lord of the Rings Star Dies' - it was some bloke who played a random orc.

Headline I saw today was 'The Walking Dead Star found dead' - it was some bloke who played a random zombie.

How do you know he wasn't already dead?

That’s the one that made me write the post lol 

 

I detest that advert. I'd actually used the company sometime last year as they did a hilarious Alan Partridge card, but I'll never use them again. 

 

I also refuse to name the company as I guess they know its annoying and people will talk about it lol

Mane's Senegal

Salah's Egypt

Rooney's Derby 

And so on

 

The Rooney one is a marginally forgivable as its a manager who has selected the team but the player's (team) is ridiculous and massively disrespect to the other players in that team.

The Rooney one doesn’t bother me, it’s like when you here Brendan Rodger’s Leicester are taking on…

 

The manager is the leader of the team, it’s their team and they are going into a game.
 

Completely agree with the player one, so disrespectful to the other 24 players in the squad.

No wonder refugees and others, want to cross the channel to get here. 'Abdul' and his family are put up in a £5000/month hotel and he is unhappy.

Although his reasoning is valid, many others will be reading this story and thinking, yup, the UK's the place to go.

Story here.

I think you'll probably find most refugees who attempt to reach Britain are doing so for other reasons than financial gain. Additionally Germany and France I'm aware offer more economically to refugees than ourselves, I believe they also let them start working sooner if claim decisions haven't been made. Also don't forget we also take in less than Turkey and Germany for example.

You can tell he hasn't been here long. £500-£600 for a flat, I doubt he would be chuffed about his move to Burnley

Been following a bit of a diet to get in better shape, just gone and binge eaten about 1500 calories of junk thanks to that Leicester performance. Properly annoyed. 

I feel that..
