    The dog that chewed the man's toe actually saved his life by doing so. The fact that the man slept through it and didn't feel it alerted them that something was wrong and when he went to the doctor they discovered a disease that could've eventually led to his whole leg being amputated if it hadn't been caught when it was.

      For those who don't know, jezza vine is a TV and radio show host. His radio show is used for discussing mundane topics in the most controversial way possible. Audience members can phone in and argue with each other too which is great fun. Sometimes he has this doctor woman on who kind of doesn't know shit but that's besides the point. He also hosts a TV game show called egg heads. 🥚 that's pretty much all anyone needs to know

    The man who had his toe chewed off by his dog, the dog actually saved the mans leg from amputation. I think the man either had a health problem or more of an infection, the dog chewed it off in the mans sleep as he could not feel his foot due to the infection/problem. If the dog had not had done that, it was said the problem/infection would have gone to his legs, hence why he would have needed the amputation. Dogs really are mans best friend:)

    I got a brit pick. Queen Elizabeth and my Mexican grandfather were born in the same year. He is a man who grew up poor and the amount of money hes made in his lifetime will probably only amount to a percentage of the change Queen elizabeth carried in one day, a man who probably never heard of healthcare and yet hes still alive. Despite british cusisine and mexican cuisine being bean based I guess mexican beans are more based.

    Jam and coconut sponge? Yes, that was a school dinner classic.

    24 hours Greggs is indeed a thing in Newcastle. The one opposite the train station is 24 hours and has a bouncer at the weekends which is pretty sad. As someone who would do 11pm shifts at one of the hotels near by and then be back at 6:45 the next morning that Greggs was my saviour.

    Greggs in the centre of Nottingham used to be open till like 3am before lockdown happened. Don't think it does anymore, but you could go in there after a night out and get a steak bake or whatever 🤣 long as you were good enough to get past the bouncer that is!

    I have had a Greggs after a night out. Can confirm it should be open 24 hours.
    The weird cake may be a Northern thing. We had it all the time

    George saying no-one has experienced Greggs after a night: Newcastle be like am I invisible to you.
    P.S. having had Greggs myself many a time after a night out can confirm it is better than any kebab joint or Maccies
