    Actually, a very good lady friend of mine has tattoos and piercings just about everywhere (yes, there too). But, she's a really nice person and good company and in a strange way all the artificial embellishments seem to suit her.

    Default Tattoos

    I've yet to see a good one. But then the following did create an impression on me. Poo I stink was tattooed not once but on each of this specimen's feet.

    Here's a good question. Do you find yourself identifying and agreeing with other 'Grumpy Old gits'? Or do you find their observations predictable and annoying?

    Not much of a choice, but I'd sooner watch soaps and cookery than 'Reality' TV!!!!!!!!!!

    I turn them all off though and football (bet that'll annoy some of you).

    As a GOG founder member I need to mention that threads like this are nothing compared to the "forums" that operated in my youth in the public bars up and down the country. Real-time moaning beats virtual moaning every time . . .

    What about those people who play with their pissing iphones all the time. It's very, very annoying.

    And, be honest, WTF is there to watch on the TV these days? Soaps (shite), reality paint a house, cook a meal, train a dog, eat a meal, buy a house abroad, drive over some frigging ice, decorate your home, spend a night with the traffic cops, round-up some sheep, lay a hedge, etc. FFS who thinks this complete dross up.
