Is there a bar at the Hollywood Bowl?

I've had food at Frankie and Benny's before (accompanied by a few jars) before the game

Re: Diving Arsenal Players - The Least Shocking Admission Ever

Douglas Luiz scores direct from a corner for Villa against Arsenal. Now where have I seen that before? 🤔 Exactly what I thought. Similar impediment to the goalkeeper but nothing untoward. I said at the time Dixon had no chance of getting it. Is it not a foul though? I only saw it once and the Villa...

Re: Shirty McShirtface: Help pick the Wanderers' kits for next season

The modern classic I like. Reminiscent of my NY Yankees baseball shirt. Gotta be Navy shorts though (with a white pinstripe)

Away shirt should be Teal. With Reebok on it.

We're off down to the Green Man Festival on Thursday, so imagine my utter delight on learning this morning that the insufferably glacial US three-piece, Low, have been replaced by the magnificent Public Service Broadcasting instead, on the big stage too. :)

Cracking weather, cracking performance.

Rode our luck once or twice, but we were good value and very, very convincing in the end.

No point over summarising.
This.

But just to say that could have been 6-3 easily. Excellent game. Good atmosphere. Shit ref.

Watched The Gray Man last night.

Is it like triple jump without the hop, skip and jump which makes it the triple jump, so it'd be just "jump" :-) Same but without run up. Ta!

Gutted I didn’t get to watch it live. Fantastic achievement. I may not have run this week but I did compete in track and field (badly) at the weekend so that ‘achievement’ is justifying my 2 plus icecreams a day habit at the moment.
