Forgetting to switch off my week-day alarm. I was looking forward to a slight lie-in today after a late night out.

So Arriva are operating a Sunday service today but aren't accepting Teen Cards until after 0900. Well that's my plan for "Seaburn here I come" ruined.

I had another alarm set for 19:55 (was a reminder that X Factor was on), so when I was deleting that alarm last night, I realised that I hadn't switched off my usual weekday 05:45am alarm.

Managed to have almost three hours extra sleep, so I'm glad I remembered! Not to rub it in or anything... [emoji14]

Is there a shoe-shop in Metrocentre that isn't owned by Mike Ashley?

No idea, Schuh maybe?

Thankfully I made it, and it was decent apart from hearing a close friend of mine (Bazza) was upset.

Kurt Geiger? Wink

And yes, Schuh.

I hate shoe shopping.

Don't think I'd suit heels but I'm willing to give them a try!

The 'Mike Ashley' comment was precipitated by the fact I'd walked from Scruff Soccer, into USC, then into Sweatshop before realising I was actually looking at the same deals.

He does seem to be getting pretty ubiquitous when it comes to sportswear. I'll confess that my current trainers are from Sports Direct, mind. It's the only place that had laast year's grey with a little bright pink instead of this year's white with mint green or orange virtually all over Nike Dart 10 and 11. (It's them or granny beige shoes and I might be old, but I'm not ready for granny shoes)

Is the USC in Metrocentre closing? The one in Newcastle is.

Normally go to JD myself as the one in Newcastle has everything.

All USC branches are closing. Newcastle has already gone.

Ah that's good then, can't stand that shop. Sports Direct is okay for Newcastle shirts, but the trainer selection there isn't great. Not a fan of Footlocker either, always seems to sell out of fashion shoes.

They were all closing down a couple of month ago as the company was going into liquidation. 

JD's alright but it's sometimes hard to see what's on offer. The one at Metrocentre isn't that bad, but the one in town shows no distinction between sale items and items which are their usual price.

There is a new one open now, only been in once and it was quite good. Was that not the temporary one next to M&S you went in? Could explain it.


RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - MurdnunoC - 31 Aug 2015

No. It was the new one, the store which I believe HMV and, well well, JD Sports used to occupy.
