Monday 6th: “Geordies Here!” Manhattan and The Bronx

Not my usual idle threat at this time of year brought on by the shit weather that this country calls a summer, or this year in particular by the shabby way our club is treating darling Joey Barton. The car is sold and our belongings are packed into boxes, flogged at knock down prices, given away or spread into our neighbours’ wheelie bins (in the dead of night) throughout a half mile radius.

Fashion (turn to the left) 28.2.2011
Tweet I was talking to my mate Graham over a pint in town. Unique your Graham, as all who know him will testify. He somehow manages to fuse together an intellectual insightfulness with Geordie docker’s vocabulary. For example I, rather … Continue reading
