I was outside Throston bookies and overheard two blokes talking.
"It'll definitely happen on Friday morning" one (who was wearing a football scarf) said.
They both then stared up and out to the East.
I reckon there's some overseas investors planning a take over.

Anyone else heard owt?

It's the arrival of the much delayed squirrel and black pudding pies at the butchers. :wink:

I was outside the bookies in Silicon Valley and a passing venture capitalist told me that Google have heard about our self-driving bus. They're buying us to stop competition for their self-driving cars and we'll be playing in Google colours under the name Pools.
