Hahaha! This one comment has made the last 7 years of Patreoning all worth it

At the till at Tesco today - put my clubcard through and get £10 off the family shop. Lady at the till: better than nothing. Me (without thinking): well, it's better than being bald!
I got a very strange look

He did tweet about what a sad loss it was at the time, but more a loss to the world of sport than "can't believe my BFF has gone!" A real shame he didn't release a statement announcing that Willie had died, but that even that was BETTER THAN BEING BALD!!

Didn't realize Willie Thorne died in 2020. Couldn't help but Google his funeral to see if Gary was there. Sadly it appears not. I don't want this to be true and I'm trying to convince myself he had a good reason for not showing up, but it's a mate (supposedly) and the funeral was only in Spain. Best I could find was a quote from Mr Lineker saying he was taken too soon...

Loved the Amazon review of the Michaela Strachan video(s) - delightfully thirsty. I presume the disappointment was compounded by obviously having paid about £500 each for the second-hand copies of the Girls' and the Boys' tapes.
Good to hear you sounding relatively healthy.

Almost dropped my phone when I saw the scouse comic had made his way into a comment.
Probably gonna have to cover Spatz at some point :(

Fantastic. "Don't lose it" made me actually lose it.

He might be an absolute ledge and all round top bloke but thirty-odd years on I still refer to Lineker as "Barry Binliner", like in the episode of Spatz he's in. (Marvellous sense of humour?)

Most likely, Willie's video recorder ate the tape, then caught on fire, saving him the humiliation as his house burned down around him.

Imagine being Willie Thorne... career on a downward trajectory, gambling addiction ruining your life, bald... and then your wildly successful young bestie offers to make a video with you about your friendship. Imagine how happy you would be. Until you sat down and watched it.

“He’s got no need of a comb and he doesn’t even believe in himself!” I’m endangering my marriage by interrupting our anniversary weekend to watch this, and it’s worth it.
