    Alas Smith, it’s Jones

    W H Smith actually WAS someone. Who the **** is TG Jones? Wanky beyond belief!

    Wasps go to bottom of the pyramid

    I think i'm right in saying that is no longer the case. They were definitely in bed together, but i think the Wasps guy slunk off when the Kent plan emerged.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    When will the international community make a stand against this this hideous Israeli regime?

    Nine To Go.

    We won't need five wins. Four and a couple of draws will probably see us over the line in 5th or 6th. All of the teams we have beaten in the previous 10 have been bottom half or starting to crumble (Blackburn, etc). The only top 6 side was Leeds and they were a class above. I don't think we will...

    I don't get how they can vote on the MVP before the SuperBowl. I'm not saying Hurts should have got it over Allen, but the Bills (and Jackson's Ravens too) play in a second-rate division and they have lost to the same team in the AFC game for 5/6 seasons.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Slightly different, IMHO - legitimate government (no matter whether you like them or not) versus leader of international terrorist organisation

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    He's trying to score points by knowing that Nagasaki was after Hiroshima, i suspect!

    Would much rather he was called a fuck-whore on a regular basis!

    Given they can't make their minds up how to say it, i'll stick to Switzerland!!

    Probably counts as divergent evolution from a common ancestor. I think place names are the main thing where each language has a different word - Germany being Deutschland, Allemagne, Alemania and Tyskland (Norwegian). Seems disrespectful not to refer to places as they are spoken by the people...

    The official NFL Thread

    Watching the extended highlights works for me with NFL - takes out all the ads and the time-outs. May lose some of the atmosphere and context of some plays, but i enjoy it.

    Wow - that was a performance. So pleased for Cooper DeJean with that INT return, and Mahomes hasn't faced a D-line like that all year. I think the Birds took their foot off the gas and allowed Chiefs to gain a bit of a respectable score. Or maybe they got tired. Couple of weird flags - that pass...

    Trouble is if KC win, we'll never hear the last of it! I think (hope) that Barkley, Smith. Brown, Goedart et al will be enough to cover for Hurts' weaknesses. The rookie-on-rookie match up between de Jean and Worthy will be interesting.

    As opposed to US supermarkets where you have 5 or 6 aisles devoted to absolute crap! I'm not sure where shmeee found that data. I looked this up yesterday and top of the self-sufficiency league in 2022 is Argentina, who produce 273% of their consumption.

    Absolutely spot-on! There is a whole "education piece" to be done with the UK population on that. But it is not helped by plant-based diets who import massive amounts of sweet potatoes, chickpeas, almonds (especially as almond milk), avo-bloody-cados, which have a devastating environmental...

    That would be a very interesting stat. I would also like to see how much we export (meat in particular) that we also import (e.g. lamb from NZ, chicken from god-knows-where, etc). France is FAR more self-sufficient than we are (being the closest to self-sufficiency in Europe), and has the...
