    London trip advice

    I stay at the Travelodge in Docklands when I'm at the O2. Pretty cheap, well for London, and like you say near the observatory. Depending how old they are and if you fancy some time to yourself you could dump them at the arcade / cinema at the O2 for an afternoon and make use of the many bars...

    cricket 2023

    for all the pre-tournament talk of England batting deep and nearly everyone who bowls being an all-rounder after these two you've got Willey, Rashid, Atkinson, Wood and Topley. Not seeing 300 runs there.

    28-3 needing 400 and a huge let off for Stokes. You can clearly hear he hits it but no spike

    Match Thread Bristol City FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Oct

    This is getting way off topic but I bought a decent-ish not super expensive (were about £80 I think) pair of wired headphones and they are so much better than my AirPod Pros. Having said that isn't he using the really shit free headphones you get with your phone.

    Sweden v Belgium shootings

    seems that way. amounts to keeping an eye out and if they're arrested for something else or are noticed doing something unusual then action might be taken but other than that it seems pretty much meaningless

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Had this pop up on my feed, not much changes does it. In fact just this week all members apart from the US, UK and Russia voted in favour of a UN Security Council resolution calling for a humanitarian pauses to deliver aid to Gaza, the US actually voting against to veto it.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Anyone watch the doc about the housing crisis on BBC recently? Nothing earth shattering on there but was some interesting insights from people involved in policy decisions and implementation. One of the factors sited as contributing to spiralling house prices was cuts to stamp duty.

    cricket 2023

    South Africa going along nicely. If England lose this one they're in big trouble, going to be a real battle to get out of the group stage with 5 games left including India, Pakistan, Australia and Sri Lanka.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Why are world leaders talking like it’s a football match? We had Biden talking about ‘the other team’ and now Sunak saying ‘we want you to win’

    Wasps go to bottom of the pyramid

    Was just editing my post to add that this will all be reliant on someone else paying for it, the Wasps way. Do even the biggest Wasps fans really give a shit anymore if a new team using the name turn up somewhere they have zero history. Using Worcester as an example they'd get a handful...

    Match Thread Bristol City FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Oct

    Would make sense. Never really bought into the idea some people seem to have got into their heads that Robins had just decided we didn't need to strengthen there. Always seemed more likely that it was something along the lines of running out of time, preferred target falling through etc. Good...

    They've finally managed to get all the England players wearing kit with the same font on the front and now they've messed up the name and numbers on the back.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    There's a lot of things I don't understand about this situation, I imagine most people would be the same given the complex history but we live in a world where most people are certain they are right on every subject, but this kind of thing really blows my mind. How are we in a situation where...
