There's an app for that....

Overheard at Piccadilly Station:

1. How was your Mum doing?
2. Oh my God I was so embarrassed! Have you seen that app where it reads out your texts when you're driving?
1. Ah yeah
2. Mum was in the passenger seat, just suddenly heard 'bing - message from ****** alright big boobs, what time you home later? I'm in the mood if you fancy a quickie before the footie later!'
1. Haha, what did your Mum say?

Chorlton vs Didsbury (the old debate!)

Overheard at Cornbrook Metrolink:

1. You coming out tonight?
2. Maybe, where you off to?
1. Ah maybe a couple of bars in Chorlton
2. I ****ing hate Chorlton, can't stand the place
1. Why!? Chorlton's amazing, I lived there for ages
2. It just wants to think it's Didsbury, full of pretencious people, that awful pub near the four banks where everyone's dressed for the gym and you know they aren't going, too many takeaways, bloody Morrisons, hate it, hate it!
1. Seriously?! And Chorlton is so much nicer than Didsbury
2. Are you ****ing kidding me! Didsbury's nice, Chorlton just think's it's Didsbury, and the name Chortlon-cum-Hardy - it's a ****ing joke
1. Chorlton is so much nicer
2. No it really isn't, do you remember that crappy Hugh Grant Film - About a Boy?
1. Yeah
2. Well Hugh Grant would live in Didsbury, and that tree ****ing hugging mother would be over in Chorlton, take that as an analogy, she'd be right at home
1. Take it that's a no then

Never, Ever, Ever

Overheard in a South Manchester Office:

1. You've just missed Taylor Swift

Tickets Please...

Overheard at St. Peters Square Metrolink:
