Man Talk 29th June

Man talk 29th June 

Lots of talk about big name swanky restaurants opening in Liverpool  this week.All good, but how about a word for the little people. And let's celebrate the host of independent eateries that have sprung up around Bold St recently. From Moroccan and  and Asian Fusion cuisine to Indian and Mexican street food. The area has become swamped (in a good way) with hip and trendy cheap places to eat and socialise. It reminds me of New York it's so random and just to prove the point  there is even a Friends inspired coffee shop.if you haven't already check it out your bound to find somewhere  'There for you.....'

If your a footballer what do your clothes say about you? Remember back in 96 when Liverpool turned up at Wembley in their white suits. They were dubbed the ' Spice boys' and basically stunk the place out with their performance. All flash and no Bash they got whooped by bitter rivals ManU . Step forward 20 years, to this years champions league final.  Barcelona chose a double denim ensemble as their club outfit. If as they say clothes maketh the man, then could this rough and rugged look have inspired the team to work hard dig deep and eventually claim the prize. LFC and EFC take note try turning up for the first game in a boiler suit and wellies, it's a  ready for anything look, and perhaps Brendan and Roberto should try a hard hat and Hi-Viz jacket combo so the fans know who to aim all those insults at. 

And whilst were at it when does pre season start for the St. John's ambulance,? Great job that they do. But fitness levels last season were shocking.I'm always worried by the time they reach the injuried players it's usually them who look like they need the oxygen and a stretcher..

It's about this time of the year I'm badgering Barbara about why 'we should have gone to Glastonbury'. And she never tires of telling me about the 'joys'of having to camp in a field. The pleasure of queueing for the 'long Drop'. Of Being covered in mud, hungry, tierd and moaning about being to hot/cold/wet. Glastonbury never fails to ignite my inner wannabe rock fan. unfortunately my sensible other half is there  to remind me it's always better on TV. And bonus you can go to the toilet and not lose your spot. 

Wonder how many people are staying at Glastonbury in a 'Gothavan' advertised as an all black top to bottom caravan. It's the ideal little rock star wannabe camping number - paint it black why don't you 

My favourite Glastonbury story of the week was about Lionel Ritchie - he was described in an article as a 'cat daddy' modern speak for any man over fifty years old who still does it for the younger ladies - Easy like a Sunday morning indeed 

We spent a heated couple of hours last week considering how we would divie up 93 million if it had been one of us that scooped the Euro lottery jackpot. After buying the obligatory 'big' house the new car and the holiday, and of course give a bit away. Nobody knew what they'd do with 'loadsa-money' - we did however all agree 'it wouldn't change us! - yeah right???

Talk about a long player Radiohead Frontman Thom Yorke's Latest Song Is 432 Hours Long And Will Take You Over A FORTNIGHT To Listen To. - Only for the die hards

Model behaviour - Couldn't believe the quote in a fashion magazine from a very well known hipster blokey model. He was asked where he gets his style inspiration from, and in all

seriousness he replied 'From the homeless, they can put anything together and it just works” - yeah those homeless people have really got it going on. No homes but amazing dress sense!- unbelievable!!

Did you see the story from

Cornwall that a ban on mankini's has cut crime in Newquay  by nearly half - merseyside police take note 

Are you a 'Jetrosexual' or the type of guy who is ready at the drop of a hat to  hop off for a weekend of fun in the sun
