    Friday joke time!!

    A 6-year-old little girl goes into a pet shop and asks in a childish voice... Good mowning Sir, do you have any wittle wabbits? Why of course my little princess, what colour would you like the rabbit, black or white? Actuwally, my python doesn't give a fuck what colour his dinner is! 😱

    Cheers 585👍 He was out with his girlfriend and probably stayed at hers 'coz he's not at his Dads - no response from either to messages or calls, which isn't unusual! Hopefully he'll wake up OK, but then he'll be gutted when he realises where he should've been...😃

    FREE 18-24 ticket for today, anyone...

    My grandson went AWOL overnight and, despite me putting out an APB, missed the coach to Reading.😔 I've got his ticket with me and don't want it to be wasted, like he probably was last night!😱 The ticket's for a seat in the West Stand Upper Tier and cost £15 but going free to a good young...

    Friday joke time!!

    Three old blokes, regular posters on AVFTT (no names no pack drill), are sitting on a bench in Stanley Park, talking about life and about the struggles of ageing. First one says, l'm having a heck of a time taking a crap. I strain and I groan and it bloody well hurts, nothing seems to help...

    Are you an Optimist or a Pessimist?

    Looking back to when I posted this thread after two successive 1-0 away defeats against Wigan and Derby and before the home draw against Wycombe... Before the Wigan game, I'd checked the date of the League One Play-Off Final (Saturday 18th May) and booked my next well-deserved😜holiday flying...

    Are you an Optimist or a Pessimist?

    Lovely to see so many Pessimists turning into Optimists since Tuesday night's football results. Doesn't it make one feel a lot happier looking on the brightside? Even though we might be well-piffed off if we don't eventually "get to where we want to be" - FFS, I sound like Simon Grayson when...
