Off Topic Things that aren't worth a new thread ...

It's the Watermill at Ings Rooch mate, and I wouldn't touch Grassmere with a barge pole as it's full of tourists

Your right about the Brown Horse only the last time we were in there was more dogs than people which does my head in.

 

Sorry mate Cumberland just pointed out it’s the Watermill at Ings not the Windmill

 

Cheers mate

 

Think of the poor mags, they are in mourning one of their leaders has been killed in Kabul by an American drone..

 

Over my head that one

 

Or off with his head

al Qaida...= Saudi

 

One summer, when my kids turned 10 & 8, this tv show was about all they watched on tv.

One of the cast just released a book entitled "I'm Glad my Mother Died." I'm curious to see how this title fares in the marketplace.

 

If anyone is interested in the lead up to WW1 then there is a fantastic documentary on Netflix that is well worth an hour of your time - The Long Road To War

It is seldom that I come upon an historical documentary that has challenged my knowledge of a subject as much as this one has. I will certainly be watching this a few more times - it's easily my best watch of the year so far

 

Lynx. Been rehashing the same smells for 20 years with a different name, only problem, Epic fresh smells like some other lynx, but I can't quite put my finger on it, possibly Phoenix.

 

the 'new directives' for officials, especially linesmen, tell them not to flag but let the game flow then allow VAR to double check, is ben godfrey the first to suffer a bad injury because of this?

it was obvious to everyone that the ball had gone out of play, much the same as the many obvious offsides we have seen, surely if there is little to no doubt then they should flag and stop play...anything is better than lads getting injured.

 

well done brighton, danny welbeck rolling back the years there.

manchester united and old trafford no longer feared by other teams now?

 

Just wondering if they are still doing the Stadium tours, fancy taking my grandson during the summer holidays

 

Might as well put this here. its a bonkers stat.

Norwich and Peterborough have NEVER met in the league, despite both being yo yo clubs.

When Norwich are yo-yoing up, Peterborough are yo-yoing down.

 

They have met though
There a building society

 

Southend have just realised that they may have to change the name of their West Stand.

 

After travelling all around the country so far this year my 8 year old won her first National draft slope ski race beating a number of other under 10’s and she was 5th girl overall beating a number of 9, 10 and 11 years old.
A bit self indulgent by me but not bad for a girl who just started racing in January this year and from the small ski slope in Silksworth.

 

That's great and you should be proud

 

Just seen online that "TopGun Maverick overtakes Titanic in the box-office".

Only took 25 years.

Have to say he's spot on. It's been taken the wrong way by some. All he's saying is it's a game for ",Guys" to play from private education. He isn't saying education is the problem, he's saying he basically needs a bigger Poole to choose from. Not many blokes play for England from council estates.

 

Just listened to a decent programme about deception in sport featuring a British table tennis champion, Boris Becker’s serve and saving penalties.
