    Another fatal stabbing in coventry

    Understand what you’re saying... but after the amnesty, there’s no excuses when the gang-members are automatically locked up. They had their chance to give their knife up.

    Another fatal stabbing in coventry

    I understand the comments from so called “experts” that you can’t just lock people up and hope it goes away, you need to get to the root of the issue... However something needs to immediately be done, to protect the public... I would have a National two week amnesty, where knives can be handed...

    Running

    It’s at the Godiva Harriers track at the Warwick Uni. There’s track events on all afternoon from about midday... think I’m off at about ten past 4. Next proper race (I.e on the fells) is the Snowdon Uphill on 28th June. From centre of Llanberis to the summit of Snowdon. I’ll be hoping for...

    Running

    I’m making my track debut for Godiva on Sunday afternoon, in the 3000mtrs.... Never raced on the track before, and only ever raced such a short distance in a cross-country relay. Just hoping not to disgrace myself, and hopefully get myself just under 11mins. Had the opportunity to do the 3000m...

    St Andrews travel, parking & drinking

    There is a service through Malvern/Malvern Link, to New Street, something like hourly. If I recall it takes around an hour, passing through Worcester and Bromsgrove.

    Any business minded people who can help/give advice?

    You obviously know the area well... but as someone who spends a fair amount of time there myself, I’d certainly consider the Beddgelert property as a first choice, even though it’s more expensive (if you can afford it). It’s right in the thick of it for the Snowdon tourists.

    For anyone who knows the Lake District... I did the Fairfield Horseshoe Fell Race yesterday in warm weather... one of the most famous hikes in the Lake District.... 60th, 1hr46.

    Government orders congestion charge on Coventry roads

    We've had Tesla in this week, pushing their electric cars.. And there may be a push for us to become an ambassador type company for them, having charging points etc.... No doubt the high-spec cars are impressive (and even fast) and the benefits to company car drivers are decent.... But the...

    Our 400mtr rep session was slightly different tonight... 12 reps, split into 4 sets of 3 reps, each set getting approx 5 seconds quicker.... only 20 seconds rest after, rep 1, 40secs after rep 2, and 60secs after rep 3.... The aim being that by the 4th and final set of reps you are up to...

    Personally I find having a physical target to aim for helps... for me, I’m a dedicated runner, so that gives me a focus... but it could be anything really... weight loss... or financial...

    Ajax

    My boss at my old work was a die-hard Wolves fan... followed them home and away through all the bad years... Asked him about his hopes for this season.... he said he doesn’t want to end up in Europe as it will be bad for them.... whilst I can understand his point, what is the point in...

    What will they cry about

    Yes it’s certainly not over and you’ve got to fancy Portsmouth at home to score at least one (hopefully they get about 9)

    What will they cry about

    I can only imagine the lower attendance is due to the disappointment of missing out on automatic promotion.... Whilst it’s very poor from the self-titled massive club... let’s not be too hypocritical... after all, if I’m correct we didn’t exactly pack the stands out at home to Notts County...

    Ajax

    But there was nothing wrong with the European format before the champions league.... the European Cup was the top competition for the true champions.... the UEFA Cup was a fantastically tough competition and could be argued to be as tough, if not tougher, than the European Cup. The ECWC could...

    Ajax

    It’s small margins though... and after all they’re cup competitions... but for the width of a post and a howling miss in the first leg, Barcelona and Ajax could easily be two sides in the final. Prime example is England at the last World Cup.... Colombia ahead in the shoot-out... had that...

    Ajax

    Serie A is having a monstrous battle for the champions league places, with down to 8th being in contention. Granted Juventus are way ahead this year, but last season it was the only of the elite leagues to even resemble a title race, right up until the final few games. Germany having a similar...

    Holidays 2019 where are you all going

    Yeah it will be absolutely roasting...! up there with Rhodes as the hottest place I’ve been (south-east Asia excepted). Sliema if I remember is very built up but good facilities, and Valletta is just round the bay, which is stunning (but will be rammed). Local buses are entertaining if a...
