    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I've signed it! It's pointless like you say but its a good alternative to voicing opinion in a singular non combative way. It might only be the beginning of Labour's term but working in a small private company I'm feeling well and truely shafted at the moment. Honestly we're being treated as...

    Given that DK is amazed that someone dared to suggest we need midfield additions... I'm going for another double act, both are good with any 'deck'. and can produce something out of nothing. Penn and Teller.

    The holiday 2023 thread

    Fantastic! In Bangkok be sure to take in the Royal Palace and Wat Pho and for night time entertainment try Khaosan road, its the back-packers area with live music, cheaper drinks and plenty of street food to chose from(burger king at end of road if your fussy).It was also the starting location...

    Boro Player Ratings

    I sincerely hope your right in your assessment of him. I rated him only 1/2 point lower than other players today on the basis of what I saw. I wouldn't and haven't written him off by any means but being old school I like to see 1st and foremost that a goal keeper commands his area to protect...

    The holiday 2023 thread

    LA is bigger than I thought it would be so you'll need to drive to get the best out of it, it can also be expensive so fat wallet needed. San Diego very nice but more one dimension-able, you'll love it or loathe it. Thailand is my favorite we're going back end of March, one week up north(Chiang...

    Boro Player Ratings

    Thomas 7.5 MOTM for me, scored, interception of Dovin's blunder and general defensive play. 6.5- 7.5 for the rest bar Dovin I give 6 for clean sheet only, but he worries me.

    The speculation of us getting something is dragging on and I need the pick me up of seeing cash coming our way in the hope it funds the elusive midfielder we need.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Luton Town Match Thread - Saturday 26th Oct

    After that it makes me think some of the players needed a few home truths stuffed down their throats as after the last few games. much better, a few howlers but much better.

    New cars

    A lovely car but a bit out of my price range as a private buyer. I bought cheap Chinese new for warranty(7 years) as worried about reliability. Now though after 2 years driving it I'd have no hesitation in buying second hand and save the massive depreciation these cars suffer in the 1st 18...

    New cars

    It’s not advised to continuously change to 100% and leave it in that state but the option is there to use for long journeys I think most batteries are happier with change cycles 20 to 80%. The latest composition can be charged to 100% everytime. Time will tell if this has an effect on their lifespan

    New cars

    I should add if you like to drive above 70 it also kills range as the motor just draws so much more power, it’s quite the opposite to ice car, as when driving around town with constant braking the energy is reclaimed by the battery management system making possible to get above the 270 miles...

    New cars

    I get 280 miles in the summer which gets me to Heathrow/Manchester airport and back. In the winter, making full use of heating/lights etc, range can drop as low as 190 miles so when doing above journeys I stop before getting there and charge for 15-20 minutes so I don’t have to stop on way back

    New cars

    My last 2 cars were Toyota Avensis manual, it was excellent next to nothing replaced in 150k miles. I was hooked on presumed Japanese reliability so replaced it with a 3 year old Lexus LS auto 30k on the clock, it was again a fantastic car to own and drive for 18 months and about 22k miles later...

    The Joys of getting Older

    Are peoples to coy to talk about their love life in later years.? Heres my take on it.... In younger years after going to dinner, then on to a night club in the early hours we'd get back home at copious amounts of drink then up the stairs. Feeling a bit peckish I'd go then for the 'ham batch'...

    The Joys of getting Older

    Positives Its tolerated if you fart occasionally when getting up from a chair ! At the suggestion of DIY its acceptable to say your worn out. You are at, or nearing the time you don't have to work if you don't want to. You have a vivid ( albeit sometimes skewed memory) how everything was better...

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    You'd have to dislike the main character as generally the lead often makes the show. I'm not a fan of Ricky Gervais so I'd take him out of the Office(its been done I know). Bradley Walsh out of the chase, to cheesy/slapstick for me
