    Biggest bargain in football history

    biased as eff of course but step forward one Teemu Eino Antero Pukki, signed on a free by Norwich and bagged 87 goals in 198 appearances for us including one horror (no) show in the Premier League. In only 5 seasons with Norwich he is our 4th ever highest scorer. Legend.

    How long can you stand on one leg?

    It's incredible how Michael Mosley gets such a platform on the BBC having left the medical profession yonks ago, hasn't practiced medicine for decades and is not a registered doctor yet is routinely trotted out as the nations health guru. His intermittent fasting theory was questioned this...

    We did it last year and watched a complete wedding party troop up in suits with Bride and Bridesmaids in dresses, kids all togged up it was utterly superb, took some pics for them such a good vibe,

    The end?

    Re "Politically it swung the pendulum quite a bit towards the EU, who is now a Global Superpower in all but name, without even technically having an army." The EU does have a military force (of sorts) called EUFOR that is currently active in Bosnia Herzegovina and has been present in some shape...

    The end?

    Apropos of nothing but for a while bitd I ran a company that provided FM services for NATO and UN missions in Kosovo, one of our contracts was for the UN Special Police Units in 8 camps throughout Kosovo, two of these were Ukrainian Special Police Units based in Gjilane west of Pristina one of...

    The end?

    trailer... Not a fan of Hollywood war films but Generation Kill on HBO is a great mini-series about the 2003 invasion of Iraq. It depicts a true story that follows a Rolling Stone reporter embedded in a US Recce unit and is quite an accurate depiction of the invasion by the coalition from...

    Speed awareness course.

    Spotters badge for me Davey C, I did the maths; it's 228 miles from Carrow Road to the Riverside so if I did it at 70mph the journey would take me 3 hours, 15 minutes, 26 seconds and if I did it at 85mph it would take me 2 hours, 40 minutes, 56 seconds. Obviously impossible to do it at those...

    The end?

    Sorry to butt in on you Redwurzel but whoa there over this bit... "US and UK military and politicians thought the same about Iraq" should be challenged if I may? I was heavily involved at Divisional level in the planning and execution of the ill fated invasion of Iraq in 2003 and was part of the...

    Dementia and football

    Sorry to butt in here (was looking at Boro v Norwich team thread, saw this) but I am currently in the maelstrom of dealing with both my wife's parents both in their late 80's and with dementia/challenging health issues and it's pure relentless full on grind (no violins please). I won't bore you...

    The best team won, fair play to you boro

    I think the FD was chucked under the bus by Webber. Basically when we were relegated Webber went out to face the fans and one t*t told him he was a useless c**t and Webber lost it (his wife had to reign him in). So the relationship between him and the fans is dead. So to underline this he gives...

    The best team won, fair play to you boro

    Thats just the tip of the iceberg! We have even been bizzarely blamed on club media outlet by the FD for being turd fans. Anyway, you guys have a decent victory to enjoy! Atb and good luck.

    The best team won, fair play to you boro

    Combination of our arrogant pr*ck of a sporting director who has employed his wife on the board and **** dean smithball on the back of the Farke era who was stitched up by webbers ***** recruitment. Its far more nuanced than that and Norwich fans are probably the least "entitled" bunch going...
