Re: General Chit Chat

It depends what you are using it for. If it's an extension for the likes of a utility room for dryers, freezers etc, I wouldn't go timber, higher fire risk. Having said that, I moved our freezers and dryer out of the house to a little wooden cabin in the garden but it's away from the house. The othe...

Re: The Politics Thread

Growth is finite, not without limits, those selling it as the constant and only way forward lie. I find it funny how more and more of the real wealthy are slowly backing away from the rise of AI that will eventually kill their market. The youth of today, influencers etc, usually shallow people are a...

Re: The Politics Thread

I just wrote out a longish reply, then realised the futility of bothering. We'll never live in a world where enough is enough. Greed is an incurable disease. "What doth it profit a man if he gains the whole world and suffers the loss of his soul?" Jesus asked. Well, I guess we'll know one day unles...

The real stupidity is those that will pay out that sort of money for a bloody football shirt, then moan about the cost of living.

Re: Tonight's Football

Phil Foden is a super, special player. Has to start for England. You'd hope so, wouldn't you? Because he's also brilliantly flexible positionally, which would allow for in-game tweaks, let aloine in-tournament. I'm not Southgate (clearly) but I can't see how he leaves him out now, especially in a 4...

Re: Today I'm angry about.....

Been following the Post Office/Horizon scandal for a number of years with some professional curiosity. The excellent Mr Bates v Post Office nailed it. But there clearly needs people held to account, because some of the statements made are just untenable. I don't for one minute believe, between Fuji...

Re: The athletics/running thread

Anyone any fitness New Year’s resolutions? I’ve barely run at all and want to get back to it but most of my evenings are spent ferrying kids round to their sport so don’t have much time to go with friends and the motivation is not there to go on my own in the daytime before work… I’ll manage some e...

Re: General Chit Chat

Strange Christmas. Wanderers apart, not much to cheer. My brother was in bed a fortnight with Covid and both me and the wife are heaving with coughs and colds right now . All the family have been affected one way or another. Never mind, there are a lot of folk worse off. At least the Whites are in ...
