Let me just start my meter... 😁 Now, what are you trying to do?

That is unfortunate. In retrospect, I can't think of why keeping a sausage of dubious provenance in lukewarm water for three days would cause any problems at all. I survived, in fairness, but my shirt didn't.

Hot dogs! Even I can't make a bad hot dog. 😄

I wouldn't swap him for anyone. Robins has got us through so much, we owe him a massive debt. In my book he doesn't leave until he wants to leave; we've been on the managerial roundabout once too often and it very seldom works...

Slightly wry smile here, I know that's not what you or Shmmeee are saying, but this does somewhat remind of Brits abroad complaining about having to eat 'foreign muck'. Personally I never had an issue until I tried a Chinese takeaway in San Francisco. It was much more authentically Chinese than...

From Steve Reed, Labour shadow Environment Secretary.... Asked if Labour’s stance on the war will have an electoral impact, Reed added: I'm really sorry, but that's hypocrisy writ large. Large enough to be visible from the moon in fact. Labour's stance on this (as with many other things) is...

Interesting, but I think I'll add the baby sick chocolate thing to that list of stuff I wish I didn't know. 😄

I'm not saying you're wrong, but can I offer a possible alternative theory: Might it suit Israel to delay the ground war whilst they're grinding down any military opposition via endless airstrikes, and simultaneously pressuring an entire population into abandoning their homes? In effect...

Imagine my disappointment when (at the age of about 30), I found out that in the rest of the world, scallops are some kind of fish thingy. (As opposed to fish fingers, which are ace.)

What is lard, if not a lubricant? And what is a heart, if not an engine? And what engine can run properly without lubrication? I rest my case. 😄

With you entirely except on the hash browns, tasty or not, are they not an American interloper? Fried bread though, I've not seen that in years... No way the health police are letting that one get through. 😁

Maybe they just won't bother voting at all. I'm always wary here of treating any group like an homogenous entity, but it's clear that there's a reasonable degree of unhappiness at Starmer's stance here, even from some of its own MP's.

Not saying you're wrong mate, but that surely hurts as much as anything else Starmer has or hasn't done. I'm also not sure, given the traditional Muslim votes that this might cost Labour, plus the seemingly large scale support for a different approach elsewhere, that taking the government line...

I found it entirely tolerable, but then as discussed elsewhere I'm not exactly a coffee snob. More than happy with the standard fare too, though again maybe that's a comment on my palate. Steaks are far better, I'd contend, and most big cities (like the UK) have high end fine dining if...

Absolutely fair points, but the interesting thing (to me at least) is that whatever some of the press might say, there seems to be broad support for demanding an immediate ceasefire. I think most people can see that no matter what the right wing press want to say, supporting that demand is not...

In fairness, I've always found it a warm and hospitable place to visit. With huge and staggeringly beautiful spaces too. A while back, I thought seriously about emigrating. A few problems though. 1) Their nutters are well-armed and dangerous (and their police to some degree too!). 2)...

I've got to say that I'm somewhat heartened by what I'm reading here today. It does seem that the vast majority accept that what happened to Israel was hideous and should be condemned unequivocally, but at the same time most can see that what Israel is doing is hideously cruel too. My only...

If we get after them right from the off, and go at it with real pace and intent, then I think the place will be rocking and the whole team will benefit. If we go into our shells like the second half last night, it'll be horrible. We can play some beautiful football, and we've got some great...

Hey mate, no worries. You're a fan, this is the right place to fire off. I could be talking entirely out of my arse, many seem to think so in fact, so no offence taken. Made me chuckle in fact. 🙂 We want the same thing at the end of the day, and we won't differ in how we feel at the end of...

Come off it mate, if you think some of the comments regarding Godden on here are objectively and calmly ranking strikers, then you're not bothering to read the thread or you need better spectacles.
