    115K - This is how we meet people on a budget :rotfl: :D

    I was chatting to someone yesterday who works in Manchester and had guesstimated 100,000 Rangers fan were outside his office :eek: He was dreading trying to go home :rotfl:

    :p

    That sounded awful, I don't know why the police would be surprised tho, put alcohol and football together usually seems to beget violence

    I was very disappointed with Hogmonnay, I went to 2007/2008 new year just gone.

    It was okay, but nothing special, wouldn't go again.

    I'm sure that I'm in the same situation as a lot of people here, I've recently split up with my ex who kind of dictated my life for the last five years - all my friends were her friends after I moved in with her up north (leaving my friends and family behind).

    When we split it sorta meant that I don't have anything besides work, sad I know!

    I'm just starting to try and get back into things, but this whole friend finding thing is a whole lot harder than I remember it all those years ago :\ Everyone round where I now live is only interested in football and going out into town and getting wasted, which I'm not really too bothered about either of (yawn).
