Daggers Posted 29 February 2008 Posted 29 February 2008 Can they run a rail service? I don't ****ing think so. I paid the ludicrous price of £3.00 to travel to the NEC and back and had to stand all the way to and from New Street. Outrageous. Thank **** I don't live on the Leicester-London line.

Daggers Posted 29 February 2008 Author Posted 29 February 2008 Not my area I'm afraid, I'm Virgin Media! Sort out my bloody box then. It never records stuff properly anymore and the Hi-Def doesn't work. And the internet has gone slow this afternoon. And Branson looks like a twat. Sort them now.

Maybe if you ply me with alcohol whilst simultaneously promising not to groom me tomorrow.
Daggers Posted 29 February 2008 Author Posted 29 February 2008 Thats not virgin... There we go - I thought it was. How come it's so bloody expensive on that line then?

I wouldn't want to walk it, bus it or drive it at this time.

I wouldn't want to walk it, bus it or drive it at this time. The day the penny drops with some people that I am rarely serious about anything will be a big day indeed. It was cheap - but the poor sods having to stand all the way to Glasgow would not see it as value for money.
Daggers Posted 29 February 2008 Author Posted 29 February 2008 Isn't it Crufts this week? Or is it next week? It was Soldiers of Fortune Expo. I even had time afterwards to pop into Crochet & Raffia-work'08.

Wycombe Fox Posted 29 February 2008 Posted 29 February 2008 Sorry Dags, I came into this thread from the wrong end of the stick - I thought you'd found one!
MC Prussian Posted 29 February 2008 Posted 29 February 2008 In Birmingham? You'll find what you're looking for in the most unusual of places.

Alexikokopops Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 £3 pint?Don't you live in Leicester? What the f uck are you playing at!? It costs £2.90 for a pear kopparberg in a pub near me and that's in Coventry!
Bellend Sebastian Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 on braunstone gate most places are nearer £4! You've clearly not been drinking in the Black Horse
StroudFox Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 You've clearly not been drinking in the Black Horse Is that the Black Horse in Blaby or a different one?
andyh1884 Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 on braunstone gate most places are nearer £4! You've clearly not been drinking in the Black Horse Is that the Black Horse in Blaby or a different one? I'm gonna guess it's the Black Horse on Braunstone Gate
StroudFox Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 I'm gonna guess it's the Black Horse on Braunstone Gate Ahh thanks, not lived in Leicester for a while!
Dr The Singh Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 I'm gonna guess it's the Black Horse on Braunstone Gate Soar point, r-code, and a few others are around £2.80!! Sumo, Mobius and few others, pass the £3 mark!! Why not just go to jacksons supermaket and by 24 bottles for a tenner!!

Strongbow Super's where it's at, although you have to go into the nastiest, scummiest offies to find it. 99p per can and well worth the effort
The People's Hero Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 Maidstone isn't as bad as I thought then. When did Leicester get trendy?
Dr The Singh Posted 4 March 2008 Posted 4 March 2008 Strongbow Super's where it's at, although you have to go into the nastiest, scummiest offies to find it. 99p per can and well worth the effort I know just the place, it's on narborough road, near oasis bar, next to 786 kebab shop, it's called west end off licence, it also stocks Kestral Super, Special Brew and Gold Label aswell. If your going to the game on saturday, me, master fox are going there to stock up, so maybe you should join us for a drink sesh at Mandela Park!!
