      Listened to this and 74 on train on way home. was pretty good. I hope your still gonna do the occasional rant though as a good Cam rant is almost worth paying for.

      Overall though I liked it and that slang site is awesome. ent it to a few mates years ago to try and educate them. Even learnt a few things myself.
