    COVID pass

    Can i just say (possibly not for the first time, for which my apologies) that this should NOT be a difficult system to use and embrace. France have been using their "Pass Sanitaire" system successfully for months and having been fortunate (depending on your point of view!!) enough to go there...

    There was one in 1962 ... ... unless you count that as copying the boys of Eton College!

    I think we *may* have invented the Michael Doyle song - didn't some saddo from Leamington actually make a record of it??

    Anna Soubry didn't seem to think so at Meadow Lane in the play-off semi! What ever happened to them ....!

    The Christmas 2021 thread

    You were clearly dreaming of a Wight Christmas, HH! We lived near Cambridge then, and the snow started as we were driving home from doing the Xmas shopping two weeks before. We got dumped on and it stuck around for ages. I don't recall whether it actually snowed on Christmas Day though. It was...

    The song "[enter team name] get battered everywhere they go" no matter who is playing gets on my fuckin nerves!! And i don't like that there appears to be a franchise on the "Olé ..." chant (anyone know it by another name?) every time anyone scores a goal, at every ground in the league. So...

    The Christmas 2021 thread

    Not Christmas until i have heard this - goosebumps everytime! The repetitiveness of Elton's "Step into Christmas" does my fucking head in. And Beach Boys lyric "Christmas comes this time each year"? No shit Sherlock! FOOK OFF!!!

    Things that annoy you

    .. or on ebay and their like, when buying something like wood flooring. They put the price down as 99p which is the cost for a one square-inch sample, just so they appear first in the "Price: Low to High" sorting. And they are selling about 200 of these things so you have to wade through at...

    Things that annoy you

    BBC Five Live afternoon presenter Nihal Arthanayake. Fuck me, what a total "drip" (to use 1950s parlance). His weak and woolly voice really gets on my tits, and he really thinks he's "it". Guaranteed to make me search for another station

    PCR test advice

    I got my negative PCR result back from Randox (£48) by 6pm the day after depositing the tests at their dropbox location. Great service

    PCR test advice

    I think all the PCR kits are still throat-jobs too. I haven't found one that is nasal only

    PCR test advice

    Although, in my defence, i was in full-on gag mode when doing my Day 2 PCR yesterday after spending "le weekend" in France :sick:

    PCR test advice

    You're absolutely right, JH - but the same could be said for self-administered LFD or PCR tests wherever you are

    PCR test advice

    Don't forget you now need an LFT test before leaving Tenerife and a PCR test before Day 2 after your arrival. I would highly recommend Chronomics for the LFT, and have used Randox for the Day 2 PCRs. I don't know what Chronomics are charging for PCRs but they seem to work well, so may be an...

    England Women

    It annoyed me that a woman (whose name i can't remember, i'm afraid) "overtook" David Healy as Northern Ireland's top goalscorer of all time. No, she really didn't - it's a different sport!

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I'm sure Leicester Tigers reserves (the Extras) would get bigger attendances if they moved in - you pretty much have to have a season ticket at Welford Road to get in, so the casual "walk-up" fans would love a 20 mile drive to watch some decent rugby!
