    Carpets versus Pet Hair.

    Sawdust failed me. Nobody say have you tried sawdust. The scenario. Two years ago I bought new carpets for the bedrooms, landing and stairs. It looked fantastic by the way, great job and I was very happy. Thing is, when discussing the type of carpet I was after I was clear it had to be pet...

    Harmonica (Part 2)

    The first thread is locked. Quite right as well. So I went and bought a guitar and harmonica a couple of months back. Then forgot all about it for ages. Until last week. My job has been stressing me out. Everton have been stressing me out since 1996. They did make me happy in the 80's. This is...

    Harmonica

    *Insert mouth organ jokes.* It's about knowing when to suck and when to blow etc. But seriously. Are any of you harmonica players? I want to learn how to play a harmonica properly. I guess it's just practise. Are any keys better than any others for learning? Budget about £30 for any brands...

    Amazon.co.uk - The Bad Experiences

    Been using Amazon on and off for years now. Never really has an issue. Until Monday. I checked my emails Monday morning and got an Amazon notification regarding I had changed my log in details. Sure enough when I tried, my log in no longer worked. I phoned customer serives after searching for...

    Work Contract v Actual Hours Worked

    So as some of you know I had to leave the Asda last summer after surviving two consulations in recent years that left me struggling on minimum wage. I started working as a night manager in Morrisons at the end of August. I had heard some grim stories about working for them, but the same could be...

    Cavity Wall Insulation (The Gov Scheme)

    So what do you lads reckon? Best thing to do? Worth while? Had a nightmare afterwards? Share your stories. It is FREE, but do you pay for it in the end? Do you just fill the cavity with sawdust? Got a survey being done later, but not convinced at all.

    Happy Birthday BBC

    Happy Birthday to me. Happy Birthday to me. Happy Birthday BBC, Happy Birthday to me. Every flippin' year I have to do my own thread. Thanks lads. Just thanks. To be fair, all the mates I used to have on here who might have done a thread...have all been banned. Quite rightly so as well.

    Carpets

    I haven't had to buy carpets for a few years. The last time I did, I didn't have pets. So a genuine question for the lads and ladies on GOT... Any suggestions for pet friendly/stain resistant carpets? Types, brands, woven, tuft, etc etc Genuine recommendations. Like most people I am looking...

    In the Mire 1994/2017

    Share your memories. How bad were we? Do we blame the players or manager, or both? Last game of the season, May 2nd 1994. Everton are bottom 3 and getting relegated, unless the results go their way. 20 mins in and we are 0-2 down. Get one back with a Graham Stuart penalty. Wimbledon miss a...

    Google Maps

    Apologies if you lads have done this before. Open Google maps. In the search box, type in gobsites, but place an extra letter 'h' in the appropriate place. See what happens.... Do you lads know of any other funny/odd searches? I just saw that 'empty seats' takes you to Manchester City. It's...

    Name Your Favourite Planet

    In support of @summerisle I would like to start a thread that will thrill @Donald Twain to bits, but not impress many others. So we are on planet Earth. Most of us, most of the time. But what is your favourite planet? It can be one of those out there, or one of those you have seen on Doctor...

    Re:Cycling

    Lads and the occasional lady, Last year, I was tipping the scales at somewhere over 14 stone. I am not very tall and battling through middle-age like a good-un. I was carrying around 30% body fat. We are talking something like an extra 4 inches around the waist. I didn't look massive, but it...

    Happy Birthday to Me

    I know my value has sadly slipped over the years, but this must be 3 years running you lot have let me down. Except for @Donald Twain, top man. So go ahead, somebody write first in the next post. But before the next post, my dad has bought me a kettle. I don't need a kettle and this is what he...

    Being 18

    Exam results day reminded me of something I did back in the day. I had an A Level exam in a subject called 'Rights and Responsibilities'. The exam was at 6pm on a Friday night as it was an open age exam for working adults also. This is when I was at an age when all I was doing in life was...

    @ Yermates

    Lads lads. So many seemingly belligerent threads going on in here again. How about we just recognise friendship, warm glowing feelings and niceness? All you need do is @insertnamehere Easy. Peace and Love man x

    GOT Fatness Log - 2016 Style

    Forget diets and exercise. Eat what you like and be happy has to be a philosophy for life. This is probably not a thread for @Bruce Wayne who is very slim and sensible. In fact, he can unleash a barrage of sensibility when he wants. Was probably Head Boy in his school days. So. What treats...

    Watching Everton: Do Not Disturb. FB Ads

    England. Win or Not Win Tonight. The Poll.

    Simple question. We are a very diverse and mostly friendly set of lads and ladies on here. In the heat of banter, do you want England to Win or Not Win? Play nice everybody.
