I cannot believe how crap it is. I’m actually going through an appeal with them at the moment. It was only a £24 fare but it’s the principal of the thing. I got given a free ticket ticket last week to see a show in London in the evening. Before leaving I double checked the trains home, as there...

An undercover agent was sent to an Irish village and told to make contact with their local man called O’Reilly who knew the code phrase “The birds will be flying high tomorrow.” He asked someone in the street where he could find Mr O’Reilly and got the answer “Well, there’s O’Reilly the...

Have I missed it or is it tomorrow or something? Can find Wilder’s but nothing whatsoever from us. It’s part of my pre-match ritual during the week and is freaking me out :lol:

These two lads go around lots of football grounds and vlog, from MK Dons to River Plate. They’re both likeable and funny - but their new video is absolutely brilliant. They go to Bradford, and Alfie pranks Ellis by making him a MASCOT for the day, meeting the players and walking onto the pitch...

Just been diagnosed with this, which comes as a bit of a surprise. I do drink regularly, but my diet isn’t the worst. After a series of blood tests, was referred for an ultrasound and called yesterday with the results. There is a patch they want to examine so I’ve been referred for a...

I can’t get enough of this stuff at the moment. I have it every Christmas in turkey sandwiches, but after an outstanding ploughman’s lunch last week, I think I’m developing a bit of an addiction. I decided to broaden my horizons and try a couple of other brands to compare, including some...

So go on, which is your favourite? Are the sexy, smouldering vibes of Chicago your jam, or are you hung up on Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music? Stage or screen, now is your chance to share your love of the magic of the musicals.

Sorry if there has been a thread for this which I’ve missed, but I just stumbled across a very moving short video (2mins 11secs) released for mental health awareness. Not ashamed to admit I shed a tear. Anyway, in case you haven’t seen it, here it is:

Joyous celebration service under candlelight from the majestic chapel of King’s College, Cambridge on BBC2 this morning. A rousing rendition of “O Come Let Us Adore Him” almost brought the house down. As the world class choir segue beautifully into “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing”, it is hard not...

*RANT ALERT* Just back from being sent for a few last minute items at Seaford Morrisons. Probably the most stressful 30 minutes of my year, that includes being hospitalised and every single Albion game. Quite a few key items missing on our Christmas delivery, and I knew it was going to be bad...

Lovely little tiff between these two. From watching on TV, it began with a close up on Welbz and he reacts very strongly with “you what?” and a torrent of expletives, before pointedly saying “it’s your fault, that’s your fault” (with some rude words removed for decorum). I will go back and...

I know it’s not the “done thing” after a loss for a positive player performance thread. If we win everyone is a legend, if we lose… less so. But I think Dunk was absolutely immense today. Without him it could’ve gotten very messy. No yellow card, some world class defending including an amazing...

Two centre backs splitting and Baleba playing as a sweeper/libero. The two fullbacks both inverted, and Baleba playing behind the defence. Not seen since the Mätthaus/Hoddle days. Fascinating to watch in 2023!

Firstly, let me preface this by saying I am extremely grateful for the NHS. The staff on the front line work extremely hard under enormous pressure, understaffing and huge workloads. I couldn’t be more grateful for the care I received when hospitalised with COVID, and the staff at the RSCH were...

Long shot but will be a laugh? PSN: thedentinatorcg

Anyone else fans of these guys? They’ve been around ages but I’ve only just discovered their skits via YouTube. American double act of short parodies/comedy bits ala Mitchell & Webb. Here is a quite wonderful Usual Suspects parody - really helps if you’ve seen the movie though! Decent Spacey...

Mine is reading 92% as I enter my second week of covid, bad cough now and bit breathy. Should I go to A&E? The NHS advice is confusing nowadays since the initial crisis ended

Had an email earlier this evening saying that two devices had logged in (a PlayStation and an unknown) from IP addresses in Newcastle and Hounslow respectively. Unfortunately; my less technical partner clicked on the link sent by Now our provider to change the password. She casually mentioned...

I haven’t been abroad for a few years at this point, and looking at a cheapish 3 night getaway to Amsterdam. I’ve never been and have a list of tourist sights to see, but have several questions. We were thinking 8-11th October - is it better to buy a packaged hotel & flight via Expedia (or any...
