    Glastonbury again

    What a hype job, but guess it has been for a long time. Suppose it gives those of a certain disposition something to do for a weekend every year. £400 a ticket though 😆

    Keir Starmer

    It's a bit different, there were actually GE's in 2017 & 2019 despite them not being due until 2020 & 2022 respectively. Obviously in those cases the conversations could be determined as entirely legitimate. Then you had any number of scandals and controversies going on during the pandemic along...

    Keir Starmer

    Not sure if it's the social media age or something, but have overheard numerous conversations over the last few months about saying Starmer has got to resign and there has to be a general election. The conservations are entirely serious, so just wondering what world these people are living in...

    How bad were the 90s

    They're both not bad movers to be fair, probably a bit too young in the 90s as well. Not sure really, just thought the 90s hasn't aged that well when you see a lot of the music, fashion and culture. Not sure the football was that good either, someone mentioned Italia 90 - but that's generally...

    How bad were the 90s

    Missus and her mate are boogying around the room to Oasis on BBC. Off to walk the dog.

    My mate/relative is a PM, nice chocolate and European Super League

    Possibly got caught on a video call in a coffee shop, so thought I'd get on top of any rumours that I'm dictating global affairs before they begin. Soma's Old School Jamaica dark if you can get hold of it. I get a couple of kilos kindly sent twice a year, enjoy. The Pied Sniper has been...

    Weird things you've always wanted to do

    What a player, although wasn't aware of him at the time. It was the youth setup, unfortunately had a chronic knee problem which was aggravated by maximum exertion - so sprinting, coming to a stop and quickly changing direction, etc became a problem.

    Weird things you've always wanted to do

    Always wanted to go to a nightclub in Metz. Back in the day, I spent a short period of time at FC Metz, like a few weeks trial period. There was this place that looked like a proper nightclub, small entrance with glitzy lights - I used to pass it most days. Ever since, I've always thought I'll...

    Electric Cars: Are They Really Worth It?

    It might be a bit of a job convincing many people that they don't actually need the range of a petrol/diesel and they'll get by just fine with an EV. Car buyers are obsessed with things they don't really need - 4x4s, SUVs, performance, etc. I remember a poster on here stating they'd bought a 4x4...

    Match Thread - Sheff United vs Sunderland PO Final

    Fantastic stuff by Sunderland and that's massive for the North East. It's a football city so you of course want them at the top table. They'll have a good chance of staying up next season as their manager is no mug, still learning the trade but he pays attention to the right things. No doubt...

    Scotch Corner Retail Outlet

    Sort of, for a few mins at least - was accused of trespassing.

    Anyone had a decent driveway done

    I think the smaller block paving in subtle multi-colours is probably the favourite at the moment, although quite keen on some of the natural stone stuff as well. The only thing is you see a lot of these driveways become a bit uneven over time, so getting the correct installation is obviously...

    Service or sell watch?

    Around 15 years ago just after the financial crash, I helped somebody out with a couple of things - just some general assistance with organising, etc. I didn't want paying as thought it was quite interesting and was happy to do it. Anyway, I ended up being given a watch as a thank you and have...
