If anyone is interested, Karl used to live on an estate called the "Racecourse Estate" in South Manchester just outside of a town called "Sale" and then moved to Salford , pretty funny too because my best mate lives on the Racecourse Estate and its an odd place , still rough but I can imagine it was worse in the 70's

[@Stop..carry-on]

Racecorse is a Dive , there was some newbuilds sorta opposite the racecourse and at least once a week over night there was trouble, the thieves nobs would go over and strip out the copper pipes - they even pulled a boiler off the wall and left the water and gas leaking over night

[@Astralfirework]

[@patrickbyrne5070]

And if you knew fk all about Manchester you’d know Sale isn’t Manchester and people in Salford will- for some bizarre reason- say they’re not in Manchester “you’re in Salford”... trust me.. these people are a psychologists wet dream all over

[@beatnikstrict]

Salford is its own City. Its part of Greater Manchester but they are proud that they are their own City. Which is fair enough because good things have come from there. The Racecourse is nowhere near as rum as other estates though. But they think it is. Bulls Head till 2am is the highlight of Racecourse life. They won't go to town and mouth off like they do in Sale. They didn't even come to Stretford when the pubs were still open. And ya right about Sale. As soon as you cross the Mersey it starts getting weird.

I lived in Manchester for 5 years, and that thumbnail is SO accurate! It rained every single day.

@Paul Mcgregor nothing gets passed you

[@hudsonquay]

@Paul Mcgregor Look at historical annual sunshine hours for Manchester. It is one of the gloomiest, least sunny places in Europe, receiving around 1400 hours of sunshine annually (where I now live receives 2700). It has relatively low annual rainfall but it discharges that rain in the slowest way possible...DRIZZLE. Yes it doesn't rain everyday, and yes it gets the occasional hot day in summer when every scally in the city goes topless and heads to town, but the typical weather is grey and drizzly. I grew up in Manchester.

I remember my stepdad(rip) renting Robocop, Predator, Lethal Weapon, Terminator etc and watching em with me. But then again they made cartoons and toys of these properties so... But anyway we must have spent 3-4 hrs to try load this bloody game and no go. I sort of get why console gaming got so popular ya know?

Ricky Gervais is great but there is so much i need to tell him in a sensible manner about some of what Karl says that he dismisses. Like to many important things are being passed up because they seem the same as the last useless bit of information but some of it transcends what fact and fiction truly are and Karl doesn't even comprehend the vessel for the universe that he is because he will be 70% of the way there with brilliant trains of thought that a very low percentage of people are capable of. The type of stuff that pushes all of humanity towards ascending in consciousness and then he just loses it entirely, he goes from really being somewhere to being at the bottom of the ocean strapped to a boulder.

I went to a similar church club, one of my friends went and asked if I wanted to come. I kept asking my parents, but they wouldn't let me go. Eventually, they gave in. I was quite young 5-7 ish, anyway the first couple of times it was playing games and sports. Next time I went, we were taken into the church, which was somehow hiding in the same building and spent the entire time being preached to about God. I didn't go back after that, it wasn't even about Christianity, I was really confused if anything, and didn't want to spend another hour and a half being bored. I remember they were really pushy, kept ringing my parents and even sent a few letters trying to get me to go back.

Do you think it was a cult?

[@AA-hg5fk]

If you were in a church being preached to about God, it almost certainly was 'about Christianity '. I completely agree that children shouldn't have this stuff shoved down their throats though.

Bollocks

London’s rubbish, apparently. You can’t get soil anywhere there, but if you want a panini and a latte you can’t move for them.
