    Anyone else had this cold, headaches chest infection thing

    My missus has had a chesty cough for about 4 weeks. She was diagnosed the first time at the GP with a chest infection (no shit, Sherlock) and gave her 5 days of doxycycline. Didn't touch it so she rang the GP again and a different doctor gave her amoxicillin for 5 days. Didn't touch it. Saw...

    Roy Hodgson

    Who?? I have zero interest in European football, so i'm completely in the dark when these new names are bandied about! Mind you, i couldn't really care who manages Palarse either so i don't even know why i'm here :D

    Roy Hodgson

    Not sure there would be much interest in him from genuinely bigger clubs. He did well getting Brighton to the next level, but was inept at Chelsea. Emperor's New Clothes

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Exactly this - but can you imagine the bleating if sanctions were imposed on "poor widdle Iswael"?

    Death List 2024

    Well i was told not to speak ill of the dead, but i thought he should have been put out to DJ pasture a long time ago. Not my cup of tea, but it's sad for his family and those who will miss him.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    The thing that makes it so much worse (and falling under the definition of ethnic cleansing) is that Israel TOLD people to move from Gaza City because they were going to attack, so they moved to Khan Yunis, then they started bombarding that and told people to move to Rafah. There are now over...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Palestine has a right to exist. WE arranged for it to be stolen from the Palestinians in the first place. The least we can do is to defend them from being wiped off the map altogether.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    I might use their definition of self-defence in my upcoming court case. Someone beat me up, so i sat on it and pondered for a fairly long period, then went and hunted the bastard down and stabbed him and his entire village to death. But no, t wasn't murder, it was self-defence. They surely...

    Things that annoy you

    You presumably think they are doing it for the good of their health or just to annoy you. I think there might just be an operational need.

    Things that annoy you

    Calling something as archaic as "a brace" is not so bad, although still a minor irritation! Oh the other one that is bugging me at the moment is the smug twat woman who reads the sports news on 5Live Breakfast and refers to a heavy defeat as a "quiching", to the great delight and guffawing by...

    "No-one likes us, no-one likes us, no-one likes us. We don't care! We are Eagles, Super Eagles, We are Eagles from the Linc" OK, it doesn't quite rhyme, but you get the gist! Philly is more than twice the size of SF - suspect there are a lot of glory-hunters from the Montana era out there, if...

    When someone scores two goals in a match and it gets referred to as (example from yesterday) "Haji at the double". Does my head in!

    Do you not agree he was poor in the first half? Does he just keep something in his back pocket for the final drive?? They would have lost that game if their last FG attempt hadn't been good.

    Well spotted. Couldn't work out what the correct abbreviation was! 🤣

    SF should have made that TD opportunity count in OT which ended in the field goal. But that extra point charge down for their TD in the 3rd really decided it. I thought overall that Purdy had a more solid game than Mahomes, besides a couple of incomplete passes into the end zone, but he doesn't...

    I'll get to that in a minute!! But the TD to take the lead in the 3rd was handed to him on a plate by that awful punt reception fumble!

    Sorry - just How did Mahomes get MVP?? I'm just watching the highlights and he was sacked 4 times in the 1st half, dreadful hospital ball to Pacheco then an INT at the start of the 3rd! Not my definition of an MVP!!
