Did you drink a lot yesterday?

Are you sure you didn't mishear someone say "My arse has collapsed"?

[Chittychangchang]

"My arse has collapsed"

This truly would be devastating news.

Where would TD members get a drink of Lau Kau and the company of a goat?



However i can confirm Mai Arse is unscathed

Mancunian Way sinkhole may not be fixed until next year, admits United Utilities



The huge sinkhole on the Mancunian Way is ‘unlikely’ to be fixed until next year - the M.E.N. can reveal.

A leaked email from United Utilities says they expect the Eastbound carriageway of the key commuter route to remain closed, throughout the busy festive period, until January.

A gigantic 40ft crater first appeared on the Mancunian Way on August 14 and engineers have discovered an underground sewer has completely collapsed after heavy rainfall.

“This is bound to affect businesses and therefore employment.

“There are many employment centres in the city centre, some making lots but others just surviving. There are always marginal businesses and less people coming into town is bound to affect jobs.

“They need to make this a top priority and work around the clock to get it fixed,”

To be fair the overpass was breaking

Past tense, it's broke. As in busted.

the county's gonna haul my belongings away cause I'm busted. I'm broke, like no bread."
