Crafty Canary 495 Posted January 5, 2017 It amuses me that some people actually believe TG is a professional scout. Professional wind up merchant more like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buh 0 Posted January 6, 2017 Don''t forget the washer fluid top up for the qashqai TG The grit on the roads is a nightmareVision is important on the road, and on the pitchI know you don''t take risks like low washer fluid though. It''s just not worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Number 9 0 Posted January 6, 2017 I imagine TG will stop at the Sainsbury''s garage this morning for fuel and topping up washer fluid.Good to check the tyre pressure when you''re a professional relying on the vehicle.A pot noodle, banana yoghurt, pork pie and a Woman''s Weekly magazine.

British Petroleum or Shell only. BP always exceeds my expectations, especially when they have a Wild Bean Cafe - superb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Number 9 0 Posted January 6, 2017 The impression I get is that Mr Grit was a player, rather than a coach, prior to taking over the scouting operations.We probably had posters of him during his playing career on our bedroom walls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 5,517 Posted January 6, 2017 Don''t forget though True that with supermarket fuel you can occasionally take advantage of those excellent deals like high powered torches and self-warming gloves. Perfect for those long winters slog days under the cold grey skies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,746 Posted January 6, 2017 With all the tens of thousands of miles you cover TG i would have thought supermarket fuel was a no brainer when it comes to Nectar points and Tesco Clubcard ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mello Yello 2,293 Posted January 6, 2017 True Grit''s small fish hook rapidly attracts all the Pink ''un maggots - who ''me me me'' all want to be the first to be skewered and impaled upon it......Whilst the sensible fish just nonchalantly circle around True Grit''s enticing hook, totally ignoring these misanthropic maggots......Preferring instead, to watch these maggots with their post count boosting, attention seekin'' squirming and wriggling antics, with great amusement.....

Mr Apples 1,320 Posted January 6, 2017 It''s understandable that anybody would be envious of TG''s credentials and ''Living the Dream'' lifestyle, but that was just a wholly inappropriate response from Mello.Anyway, TG do you favour a carbonated soft drink for the cup holder or the flatter, fruit juice variety? I''m partial to a Glaceau Vitamin Water, which provides important dietary supplements and avoids unnecessary bloating during the journey.Apples Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
