Didn’t RICS want two lower ground floors but weren’t given them hence their move to Brum? Was actually chatting to an ex-RICS colleague about this the other day.

Tell you what have a Google and see if you can find a bigger cultural festival in the world in 2021 than the City of Culture one which lasts the whole of the year!!

What a fucking pointless post then.

I heard it straight from someone directly involved with the project. It is year long celebration, you’d have to be doing really well to better that in a year! *edit just to clarify the biggest cultural festival in the world that year not of all time!

Ah ok I understand and I completely agree with your first paragraph. The second though is definitely up for debate though and I, personally, am not always sure that trying to impose ‘Western’ values on some of these countries is always the right decision to be making.

The City of Culture year will be the biggest cultural festival in the world. This is an amazing thing to be happening to the city and I just hope the local population get the chips off their shoulders and embrace it. Coventry is far from perfect but it is definitely improving and will...

Although I fully appreciate this sentiment I have been lucky to travel to a fair few countries in the Middle East and it is such a diverse and interesting region with some amazing things to see and do and some wonderful people so I wouldn’t just write it completely off and Beirut is still one of...

Laos is the most bombed country in the world to have never been involved in a war. The US’ actions are still causing carnage today with many people, including children, being killed or losing limbs either by standing on unexploded ordinance or when actively seeking the bombs in order to cash...

Last two days I have done no carbs and although went out New Years Day I won’t drink for the rest of the month (unless I get tickets for Donny away) and then returned back to boot camp tonight after a month off. It’s all gut for me so usually no carbs and no beer has the desired effect but...

Keith O’Neil. Never made it on to the pitch.

It used to happen all the time if a smaller club drew a bigger club. They would change the ground to the bigger clubs so more people could attend, the smaller club got a bigger pay day etc.

You start.

Agreed. Just ring me in the fucking first place!! Although as we no longer have land lines and just work off our mobiles the likelihood I probably would have ignored it anyway!!

Literally flicked over at half time in the Liverpool and Everton game and just cheered that try out loud! Get fucked London Wasps.

What if Sky never got involved in football?

Who needs Cantona When we’ve got Wegerle Or Who needs Mo Salah When we’ve got Ship-er-ly

Remember years ago we had a secret Santa at work and my then big, big boss had to get for me. As she handed me the present she had that look of how happy and excited she was with her choice and I jokingly said ‘It feels like a bar of soap’. Opened it and it was a bar of soap (insert your own...

Not sure if I’ve posted this on here before but a mate of mine is currently involved in trials regarding using MDMA to treat both PTSD and alcoholism. Mushrooms definitely gave me my ‘cleanest’ trip and wasn’t always a lover of the comedowns off LSD, although it’s funny how selective memory...

A great day on the lash and loads of us ended up in Stafford on the way back but a truly hideous game of football.

What if we had signed John Hartson earlier? What if Chris Waddle would have scored his penalty?
