I see you're tasting the local delicacies Steve now you live up there. Must admit I enjoy the Whiskey myself but havnt seen any Claret and Blue snails yet !
I sense a Favourite Whiskey thread coming on, or is it Whisky ?

Both the distilleries? Thought there were 8, more planned and another a short swim away on Jura, (the only one of them that I have toured). Both lovely islands.

It's an advert for Coca-Cola, who are a Premier League sponsor.

... 'And all I ever knew... Over you.' 'We're West Ham." :D

And I thought the Blackpool anthems were evil. :-)

Is there actually a Burnley supporter who has painted their snail up, or have Coca Cola magicked it up for marketing

It's a ****-take of our team and fans.

There's more racism against Burnley folk in that ad than any perceived racism of a golliwog with your marmalade.

Charles and Maurice Saatchi in Landown sneer at L'escargot and a bit of claret at Langdons... Haha, great coca cola ad and Alison Moyet for the handbags at ten paces Burnley squad and blubber fans.

I bet they couldn't play football either of them.

The Saatchi Gallery is just of the Kings Road, 'draw' your own conclusions.

Neither. It's a photo of David Luiz turning in the box after been left for dead by that speedster Sam Vokes in our 3-2 win last season at Chelsea.

They've just airbrushed the colour on to his head and body so that he's not easy to identify, but you can easily make out his face if you look closely.

All I ever knew... Over you. Alison Moyet. The most condescending thing I have seen this year, DESIGNED to nullify the masses over the political coup that took place yesterday.

YOU SUCKERS SUCKING UP TO ANYTHING COS ITS GOT BURNLEY ON IT.

Muggins.

The exact opposite of ebeneezer good and I doubt on the football league show, when the NU Masters are being paraded, that will be the tune, it'll be rap and stormzy etc.

It's funny how Sleaford Mods sound when they are re-mixed isn't it? Just like Alison Moyet....
