UsedToGoToCentralPark Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 But a lot of places don't accept them because they charge the retailer more. What benefit do you get over Visa, Mastercard whatever? The membership rewards scheme is pretty impressive which gets me cheap flights. Thats the main driver. It's also a charge card so one bill per month. Tbh the only places that come to mind that don't accept it are B&Q and Tony Macaroni. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Most small local businesses have signs up saying no American Express. It's also not accepted in a lot of places abroad, at least in places like Italy in my experience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajwffc Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Wolves goalie, Rui Patrício, wearing number 11.It looks wrong but he has a good reason for not wearing number 1. He went for number 11(plenty of other numbers available)in respect to the player that was number 1 last season retired in the summer with leukaemia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a good reason for not wearing #1 in that it's retired by the club, he doesn't have a good reason for wearing #11. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Roundabouts that change the usual left hand as left/straight on to left only with no warning. Alloa area is particularly bad for this. It's probably more dangerous to change roads to this than to create a traffic flow system like this. Town planners just said f**k it let's not go with the Highway Code today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I am getting sick of folk bitching about "modern" hip hop all of a sudden because Eminem released an album. I am not a huge hip hop fan by any stretch of the imagination. I love a lot of stuff from the Golden Age as much as I love any other albums I own or listen to. I've enjoyed quite a bit of the Drill stuff coming out of South London over the last few years and I can see a pretty clear line from Wu-Tang through to Kendrick Lamar in production style and jazz influences that always perks my ear up but, in general, I don't talk about it as it's not my area of expertise. Yet, suddenly, Eminem released an album and so many folk I know, who never mention hip hop, ever, are going on about how good it is to have "proper" hip hop again and shitting on everything else that's currently available. I don't even mind Eminem but all his little fan boys, who listen to nothing but Stone Roses, Oasis and Neil Diamond 364 days of the year, getting a stawner because the guy they liked when they were 14 because he swore releases an album is doing my tits right in. Saw one guy, he's in his late 20s, bitching about the quality of lyrics in modern day hip hop and how he and his pals grew up with proper word smiths. f**k up mate. You grew up with Soulja Boi and 50 Cent. When I get back to Greenock I'm gonna chib him with a sharpened Erik B and Rakim vinyl. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that a few years back and they were at my door not long after I'd walked in the house. I just drove off and completely forgot to pay. Is what I said to them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blootoon87 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Need root canal I had that last month, I was shitting it. It was a doddle though, two teeth done in 15-20 mins, barely felt a thing. Of course it could be that the nerve was already dead. Either that or I'm hard as f**k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
