@JohnBrewin_ It doesn't understand that as an Arsenal fan, Keir would have recorded himself throwing the takeaway at Gazza, to show on his YouTube channel
@Ginger_Tucci Before I moved to MCR I used to commute in from Hudds. On Saturday by 11am the Hudds to MCR train would be full of hen parties from the northeast on their 4th bottle of prosecco. Outrageous scenes
