    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Looking at a completely unrepresentative sample (people I went to school with who are on Facebook!), the people who 'achieved' at school and went on to uni are mostly thoroughly miserable, stressed etc. The people who 'failed' and went off for a few years before deciding what they wanted to do...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Congrats from chiefdave BSc. Would love to be able to retrain and switch careers, not really a viable option for me unfortunately. Although to be honest I'm not entirely sure what career I'd change to! There's things I wished I had pursued back in the day but that's a bit different to making a...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    To me it seems like the charity is being scapegoated - 'its not our fault, blame them'. Not like there was an orderly queue of people waiting to get onto planes and people lost their place in the queue to make way for Nowzad. If they had far more people to get out than they had capacity for why...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Something doesn't add up here, for a change. At the time it was reported that Nowzad chartered their own plane, the animals were in the cargo hold and they offered the spare capacity for government use. The plane left with hundreds of empty seats after their offer was rejected.

    I'm sure he's absolutely correct but I doubt I'd have much success telling the bank I couldn't pay the mortgage as I've quit my job.

    Martin Tyler

    He's 76, if Sky were thinking of getting rid of him they had an easy option with covid. Just say they were concerned about his health given his age and bring someone else in. Could be worse, could have Matterface every Sunday.

    Match Thread WBA (h) - 12:30 - Sat 4th - on Sky

    Its a clear handball. Going in a 1-0 and you'd hope Robins can sort things out and give us a chance in the 2nd half. Going in at 2-0 is a different story. If Godden gets a suspension for appealing for a penalty how come you don't get a suspension when you handle the ball into the net and claim...

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    David Thewlis in that as well, he was great in Fargo. Was reading about it and it seems its based on a real crime but there's not many details know so its not really 'true crime' in the way some other recent series have been. The early reviews are really good.

    He was hardly touched. Can't believe he needed to go down in a heap for that, just thought the ref would give the free kick.

    That's got to be a goal, wasn't even a foul! Not even an Arsenal player near him.

    Think its down to individual surgeries. My Dad has been in a lot of pain recently but tried for a week and couldn't get an appointment of any type. Phoned at 8am every morning but his surgery don't have a queuing system on the phones and by the time he got through there was no appointments left...

    Think that slot on R2 has been going for decades - back as far as Jimmy Young in the early 70s, predating R5. Should have got rid of it really now they have a whole station for that.
