What load of old tosh are you 'digging' today? And why should I listen to it instead of Davie Allan on constant repeat?

What is the worst costume you've ever seen? When I was in a pub a couple of years ago on Halloween some kids came in wearing binliners and those rubbish 50p plastic masks. They had a tupperware box that they were taking round and saying 'Trick or Treat' for money. What surprised me most was that there was dickloads of money in the sodding box! Little shits.

That's a great idea, I might do that. Sounds cheap and easy (the binliners, not the bunnies)

The worst costume I've seen was in Carnival in Tenerife. We were teenagers and trying to be sexy (we were very, very bad girls). One of our friends kept saying she had the best dress ever, and it was a surprise, and we were all expecting something very cheeky. Then she appeared dressed as Donald Duck. A full, massive duck, you know, like a mascott dress, you could only see her eyes, and she was a meter taller than anyone else. It was really weird and she could barely moved. The Carnaval in Tenerife is similar to Brazil's and you won't see anyone wearing that.

She couldn't see and walk properly, so ended up falling on a pool of pee, and crying because her great dress was ruined and went back home. Poor girl.

Well, she knew
We'd been telling her we were going to wear very slutty devil dresses, red and very sort, showing almost everything, not a lot left for imagination. And she comes as Donald Duck. We pissed ourselves laughing. I know it's wrong, but...

I don't feel like going as a bunny... I'm not so proud of my body. I want something big and not tight, so the binlinen sounds good.

Although yesterday I listened to a band I've not heard in a couple of years - CKY. Still got some cracking tunes.

Because you should listen/watch Dave Allen instead.

EDIT: Also, I require a little help today, I moved most of my stuff out last night, the landlord has said we're allowed to go in Saturday morning, and empty the rest of the furniture, as all buyers fell through, and we didn't have time to get a van. Now, before then, he's going to do an inspection of the property, and I assume he'll be taking money out of the security deposit for cleaning and minor damage. Am I within my rights to enquire for receipts of these costs, and challenge him if he takes too much from my deposit?

I'm pretty sure he has to check with you before he removes anything from the security deposit
he's not allowed to just get a cleaning firm and then tell you how much it costs, he has to give you a quote and you have to agree it. My last landlord got really expensive cleaners without asking us so we disputed it and got quite a bit back from them.
