[Cindres]

Nope, just got my facts wrong as usual.

Anyone been to the Handmade Burger Company? The Blue Cheese & Bacon ones are meaty orgasms.

Went to the one at the MetroCentre. Think I had the blue cheese, whatever it was it was fucking amazing.

 

[Indrid Cold1]

Is the big tasty with bacon the best burger maccies have ever done? I think so. Just had one for lunch, they also do wedges in there instead of chips nowadays. It was quality. I bet I'll be on the bog for the rest of the afternoon though.

Any uk-GAF on the piss tonight? I am off into Liverpool city centre for a few ales now that I've been paid finally, hope everyone has a good weekend!

 

[CHEEZMO™]

Yup.

Coming down really quick. Came out of nowhere too.

 

[Lirlond]

It snowed in glasgow last night, must have been heading south, don't worry it was pretty light up here, gone by morning.

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

No snow in Belfast but it's really bloody cold.

 

[Meadows]

Nothing going on in York...as usual...fucking bupkis redneck city.

 

[CHEEZMO™]

I think it's because I live on a hill. We get weird weather up here.

 

[Psychotext]

I could swear you posted a before and after pic from the same location at some point (last year?)... that image is really familiar to me.

Yup, in Meadows' snow thread.

It's from the window at the top of my stairs.

The IT Crowd - Okay so it's not current TV, but it's pretty much aimed at the kind of people that read GAF. Not my cup of tea really but really rated (the episode where the Irish guy pretends to be disabled is probably the best thing ever)

I saw that episode for the first time just last night and I was laughing until I could no longer breathe. The bit with Mos at the bar just put me right over the edge.

OK, this is me:

Send him to Lidl's and he can do all three on a budget.

[Jedeye Sniv]

Yup. XLBDC is massive. Sounds like someone has been getting ripped off.

If anything the XLBDC is too big, I start to get meat sweats halfway through them, and I feel all clogged up with cheese and beef.

Subway for lyfe yo. Footlong BMT on herb and cheese, lettuce, onion, southwest and mayo. It's kinda pathetic that I walk in and they start getting it ready for me now...

Change that to a 6 inch with double meat and it'd come quite close to being the best thing they do.

It always surprises me how much it's posted here on GAF but then I guess their headlines do grab attention.

[SteveWD40]

Shopping!

Selfridges, Harvey Nicks, The nicer end of the Arndale (opposite Selfridges essentially), the strip alongside M&S where some other nice places are (Ted Baker, Reiss). St Annes Sq across the way where French Connection and the like are.

You can' go wrong in that part, it's all the shops you could want within a square mile.

 

[Meadows]

Affleck's Palace!

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

Where do you live: Belfast.

Wait, another one? :O

Seriously, N.I-GAF, we could overtake the whole of GAF at this point

 

[SteveWD40]

Affleck's Palace!

Meh, only if you are 15 and into alt / goth / rock scene, otherwise it's way out of the way of any other decent shops.
