    aye, thats basically my life :D

    yeah i get the piss taken out of me that i support he boro, but when we beat arsenal 2-0 this season, it shut all my mate up :D (they all support arsenal, and chant fanatically, that its like my second team:p)
    oh and the fact that i have this seasons boro shirt with drogba written on the back, gives them more reason to piss me off :D

    Hey all U British Bloks...Would U happen to know a good site for British TV Torrents..As I'M kinda partial to your shows, I like the fact that they are not censored as harshly as American TV..Do like your game shows better especially the riskay ones..Don't care for the shorter series [6, 12 episodes ] but gettin used to it

    I'm only kidding, no worries. We used to be, but we've kinda mellowed out in the last 15 years. We're all a happy group of islands now. Once we realised it wasn't a good idea to be pissing off your most important trading partner.
