    Things that annoy you

    I was collecting a prescription from a local pharmacy recently, and had to wait for it to be dispensed. The number of people the pharmacist told "the NHS really doesn't work very well for that" was shocking ... given it is supposed to! I'm slightly surprised to learn that it was developed by the...

    Death List 2024

    For me, this is on a par with "the cat from next door but one". I thought the thread were for people who were famous, or at least noteworthy (City fans in sad circumstances, etc)

    Maybe the owners should be microchipped instead!

    Baby Girl Dies In Cov From Dog Bite

    You used to have to have a licence to keep a dog in Britain, but it was stopped in 1987, other than for dangerous breeds. You have to have them microchipped, but that doesn't help with people who don't have a clue how to train them properly.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I see Kerry Katona has thrown her weight behind Trump's campaign. That's that settled, then!

    Just happy as long as they can carry an assault rifle around with them, i guess!

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Yeah, you're probably right. PA and MI will probably decide it - and there are significant black populations in the major cities in both of those states (e.g. Detroit and Philly) who might see that someone they can associate more closely with could be someone they might be more likely to vote for.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I don't think he's got the same level of ammunition against Harris as there was against Clinton. But while you also say that Clinton's defeat in 2016 was more about her, i am still not sure certain parts of the US would contemplate voting in a black woman.

    Baby Girl Dies In Cov From Dog Bite

    I saw this too, and it makes me wonder what people DO to their dogs to make them attack you? Is it indicative of the nature of some of the people who live on estates like Wood End? The other thing that boils my piss about this incident is why TWO air ambulances were sent to the scene, as well as...

    Things that annoy you

    Failure to understand what the law requires - The HSE suggests trivial hazards can be ignored and the focus should be on significant hazards which could result in serious harm or affect several people.

    And yet it was only after he went off that they took one minute to score!

    UEFA EURO 2024

    Why did he bother taking a 26 man squad? He only played 16 players, most of whom looked knackered as a result. What does that tell the guys who sat around scratching their balls for 4 weeks? You ain't good enough? Or you don't fit with my "tactics"?

    UEFA EURO 2024

    I suspect it's because of the wank-fest over the Premier League being "the best in the world" - failing to remember that many of the stars who the top teams centre their tactics on are, in fact, other than English. I genuinely don't know what they do in training - a lot of the time, the players...

    UEFA EURO 2024

    Walker was superb first half - he took Williams out of the game to such an extent that he switched to the right. I don't know what Southgate said to him at half-time, but must've been something like "defend narrower, Kyle". Williams was just given free rein the whole of the second half. I...

    I have a friend whose son is in the US military - says it was definitely an inside job. There is no way the Secret Service would have let an unsub get into that position, especially when people in the crowd were telling local law enforcement that they could see him crawling onto the roof 5...

    3 women killed , believed to be the family of john hunt , radio 5 live racing commentator

    Problem is that girls might be doing so not of their own free will but to conform to what they are being told are societal norms. You hear of under-age kids having anal sex - this can only be because of the prevalence of what used to be called hardcore pornography (not Page 3) normalising it.

    Over before lunch on day 3 - pretty poor. More evidence that the short game is impacting on the ability to play Tests.
