    TV

    I got an LG for my Mum and Dad and was impressed enough that I also got (a more expensive!) one for myself. As much as anything the os is good and has all the apps I need built in. Can get Netflix, Amazon, Apple TV, Disney+, YouTube, iPlayer, 4oD etc without needing to switch to another device...

    Yep. Dad got the call from his GP and for some reason had to go to a health centre on the other side of the city. Mum is at the same GP but got a letter to sign up for Stoneleigh. I'm only 5 minutes away from them but with a different GP and had mine at the health centre down the road. All a bit...

    My Dads just had his call as well. His appointment is for next week so under 10 weeks since the first. Mums got her booked in as well, hers was booked in at the same time as the first one so that's a 12 week gap.

    new champions league format

    Are they deliberately trying to make competitions less exciting? Expanding everything and having more games isn't the way forward. It also sounds like a fix to ensure clubs they want are in it so basically if a 'big' name doesn't finish high enough in the league to get in they can add them in...

    Wasps losses and ricoh return catalyst

    How many teams in England have local businessmen as owners these days? We seem to be long past that and onto people who can happily chuck away £10m plus every season.

    Derek Chauvin Trial

    Obviously don't know the ins and outs of the US legal system but given its all on video its hard to see how a not-guilty verdict would be possible. He's been charged with 2nd and 3rd degree murder. Quirk of the US legal system means if he was charged with 2nd and the jury through it was only...

    Wonder if other countries copied the 12 week gap? If they didn't it gives them scope to catch up and get people fully vaccinated before us. Although obviously its not a race against each other, we're going to need countries to be vaccinated before we open travel back up. Are they picking up the...

    Won't need one to go in, will need one to get served. That way they can say Gove never said that wouldn't happen ;)

    5K at a concert in Barcelona yesterday. On the day test included in ticket price, test result sent to a phone app with a negative test required for entry. Wonder if seeing things like this in other countries while events aren't allowed in this country will soften some peoples stance on 'vaccine...

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    The footage on social media certainly doesn't look good for the police. Obviously anything can be taken out of context but not sure what context would make what is being shared a proportional response. Seems that again a protest was peaceful until the police waded in. Following on from the...

    The death penalty isnt enough

    Was just reading up on it. The mother had a history of going missing for days at a time back to when she was a child. There's several police appeals for info about her as a missing person. As you say something has gone very wrong that someone like that was allowed to keep their child without...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Paying for a diet consultant but also £669 on cupcakes! How do you get a way with charging £864 for a haircut and over £5K at Primark - you could buy the entire store for that. Although that's nothing compared to over £100K on beauty products. Does that not flag up as dodgy, surely the money...

    The death penalty isnt enough

    I can't really process things like this they're so horrendous. The longest I've ever left my dog is while I go to a match just can't comprehend leaving a kid at all let alone for any length of time. Not even like she was local and something happened that caused here to be away far longer than...
