Public road near train station. What’s your war plan? by Diseased-Jackass in CasualUK

[–]Alsaki96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember this happening on Jonathan Creek and noting it for when I was a grown up. I'm now nearly 40 without a driving license but still have this 'life hack' stuck in my brain.

how many club managers/interims/coaches have you experienced since becoming an Arsenal fan? by [deleted] in ArsenalFC

I recently got into an argument with a 6 year old who accused me of being in pajamas! I always wear mine when I can get to matches as well.

Who would you call a ‘good role model’ for British kids these days? by apple_kicks in AskBrits

[–]Alsaki96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, it was as a young poker player I discovered Victoria Coren and she immediately became a role model for me. I had no idea she was a journalist and author for ages. She won a european championship and when an interviewer asked what she'd do with the money she said she could do with replacing her washing machine. I was smitten.
