Bought a Double Decker from the vending machine and a Twirl dropped out too. That's about as much win as I'm going to experience today anyway.

That's the kind of win that would make my week. Particularly as they're both favourites of mine.

Anyone who placed a bet on them at the start of the season must be feeling pretty chuffed - odds of 5000:1 FTW I believe.
On the Chris Evans show on Radio 2 this morning the sports guy pointed out that the entire Leicester starting 11 cost less than some individual players at some of the bigger clubs :lol:
I imagine the LCFC wage bill might be going up a bit next season mind.

My workmate is a lifelong LCFC fan - he's just buzzing today.

I bet Ranieri is looking forward to Chelsea away, so he can give Abramovic the beady eye and middle finger. :lol:

There's better than that. It's tradition that once the title is won, every team that club then remains to play gives them a guard of honour. So Chelsea's players will have to applaud the Leicester players, and manager I believe, onto the pitch at kickoff. Right under Abramovic's nose...

Mind you, given Chelsea's performance is what has finally given Leicester the title and the fact that Ranieri is very much still loved by the Chelsea fans, I think apart from one sour faced Russain in the Director's box every body else will be happy as Larry.

I'm alive! I'm alive!

Plane nearly crashed on the way to Istanbul and cabin pressure failed on the way back so we had to use oxygen masks plus we managed to avoid all the protests, murders and riots on Sunday.

Did you distract the pilots with your stockings photo? :lol:
Seriously, that must have been pretty scary. Any idea what happened?

The cabin pressure failed on the way back so we had to use oxygen masks for about half an hour until the manual system was working. That also meant we had no heating, food or water. They eventually fed us about 3 hours in to the flight. I have pics and may post them if I get time today.

That sounds... eventful!

Good to know you're still breathing, Caz.

Just bought a new computer chair from auction. Brand new with labels on. Looked up the manufacturer when I got home to see the (current version of the same) chair retails for over £300.

I paid £8.64. Actually £6 but they add 20% VAT and 20% buyers premium.

You picked a bad day to give up smoking, right?

its a small one but......
Managed to get out of work exactly on time yesterday so go to the station slightly early so was able to jump on a train just before they started cancelling a load on them. This will have saved me at least an Hr of extra commute
