Even the most mundane 'fact' or experience is greeted with amazing or some such. Even folk in the street are at it now. "Aldi's sprouts are a penny cheaper than Lidl's" "Amazing". "Managed to haul myself out of bed five minutes earlier today". "Brilliant". Or "The bus was on time today". "Fantastic" although I suppose I have a bit of sympathy for the last one.

How about :- "The roof's blown off Tannadump and maybe the DAB prats will have to refrain from criticising the old stand at Dens now". "Now that is just brilliant, fantastic, awesome".
Legend......another one taken too soon....sleeping with the angels...my personal irritations.

And fitba wise......"not enough purchase on it"......Ron Atkinson started that.

And I know that this shouldn't annoy me but it does......in a shop once the transaction is complete and you have your change......"Will that be all for you today".......of course it will, otherwise I wuda said before I got my change.
