just been reminded of this onei do a bit of martial arts in my spare time, and there was one time a few years ago, where i'd just attended a course at our club. other clubs from around the region were there and we were discussing where to go for some food later.
one of the instructors pipes up, and suggests the royal naz in rusholme as a good idea. me being quite a quiet person, and a newbie eager to impress, i thought i'd best contribute to the conversation and exclaims "nah, you don't want to go there mate, its well dodgy."
he turns around, with a look of utter contempt, and i just sit there with a stupid smile on my face, and say "yeah, its dodgy as fuck"
he turns back to the rest of the table and says "yeah, my uncle owns the place and he can sort us out with a good deal."
doh!
