  1. Don Revie. His Leeds team were dirty and nasty and his behaviour as England manager was underhand.
  2. It’s another example of American traditions invading our lives. Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving which is of course a Thursday and a lot of Americans take the day of and head for the roads which is another suggestion for the origin of the name.

  17. Some girl you know?
  18. Smart motorways why?
  19. Leave it alone. You can’t improve on perfection
  20. If it doesn’t work then just suck it out and squirt it back in again.
  21. That’s the answer to everything.
  22. Low Glycaemic Index. Good for diabetics. Unfortunately in my case it reacts with the Metformin tablets to give excruciating squirts,
  23. Indeed so. He’s a battering ram that breaks up the defensive formation. It disturbs their shape and creates opportunities for others. Much better than our ponderous efforts of recent years.
