Sundays suck, don’t they. I always get really bored as there’s nothing to do. Bloody Sundays. Makes me think of that bit in Alan Partridge,
“Sunday Bloody Sunday. What a great song. It really encapsulates the frustration of a Sunday, doesn’t it? You wake up in the morning, you’ve got to read all the Sunday papers, the kids are running round, you’ve got to mow the lawn, wash the car, and you just think ‘Sunday, bloody Sunday!’”
I think there’s a bit of Partridge in all of us. I was at a mate’s house and he had speakers made by Tannoy. I think I said something to the effect of how people say Tannoy when they mean public address system. Blank looks all round. When people get Partridge quotes, it’s brilliant and you look really funny. But when people don’t know what you’re on about it’s like little dust bunnies rolling past and you look like a bit of a twat.
One of my favourite ever Partridge episodes is when Alan goes to the house of a swinging couple. If you’ve never seen it, watch it here. It’s hilarious. He’s no Lara Latex that’s for sure! Check out how it should be done in the superb first episode of Lara’s UK Swingers. I reckon these two are a little bit Partridge themselves!
