    the housing market

    Yep, that was me! Had a full survey done at a place that came highly recommended - came back all OK. Moved in and had a pool of water on the floor day one. Was a leak from the boiler which led to the discovery it wasn't safe and the gas being turned off. New ceiling in the lounge thanks to...

    George Floyd

    This is a weird one. Seattle are getting an NHL team and this week they have announced the name, they will be Seattle Kraken. Predictably it wasn't long before their fans were being referred to as Krak Heads and the arena as the Krak Den. However this seems to have caused outrage in some...

    PC Andrew Harper

    Obviously those involved in the trial have more info than us but from what is publicly known its hard to believe you can drive a mile dragging someone along without realising it. That seems to be the primary factor in it being manslaughter rather than murder. Also reports they were armed with...

    the housing market

    I was amazed how many people don't give a shit about tidying their houses for photos or viewings. Although its nothing compared to the state of some places you go to view when you're looking to rent.

    the housing market

    At least you're happy where you are so not too much of an issue. Don't think there's too many places where they're building enough houses to have an issue with more supply than demand. Its the opposite problem round here. Nobody is building and if anyone tries the locals do everything they can...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Its an odd attitude. Don't really understand the whole 'you can't tell me what to do' thing. That's exactly what the laws of the land are for. Try going into the supermarket with no clothes on and I bet you wouldn't get very far.

    All time average attendances

    Even if its not allowed by the time any new stadium is built it would make sense to have the ground setup for it. Other grounds have seating that also allows safe standing so shouldn't be an issue.

    All purpose cricket thread

    The big man is in for the West Indies. Been looking forward to seeing how Rahkeem Cornwall does in English conditions. Think he might surprise some people.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Can't see much chance of getting anything steep past health and safety. The top tier seats at the O2 come with a warning and they are nowhere near as steep as some of the stands being shown here in other countries.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Sainsbury and Asda have said they won't be enforcing the facemask rule so that's two places to avoid. Don't really get the people who are complaining because they don't know how long the rule will stay in place. As far as I'm concerned not really massively bothered if its permanent as long as...

    All purpose cricket thread

    Could struggle to get a result in the last test. Rain forecast all day Saturday, Monday and until 2pm Tuesday. If that's correct there's only going to be 2.5 days play.

    Wonder how long it took them to come up with this.

    Comic Con weekend, obviously all being done virtually this year but should still be some new trailers. Looking forward to Truth Seekers on Amazon later in the year.

    Championship salary cap next season?

    Things need to change. Would have preferred it to happen in different circumstances but maybe this will be the thing that finally kicks them into action.

    the housing market

    This was the problem I had trying to buy. You could sign up to every site going to get immediate notification when a property went on the market, get straight on the phone to the agent for the earliest possible viewing and then before you can even look at the place a buy to let investor comes in...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Can't build houses because a few people on Green Lane don't want their view spoilt. Got no chance. Not like there's even access to the land at the moment so you could at least argue you were losing use of something. One of the councillors who is objecting knocked on my door canvassing and said...

    Match Thread Coventry v Rangers

    Main thing is it looks like he will be fit for the season which considering a couple of weeks ago he was allegedly about to have an operation is great news.

    That's got to be a wind up.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Do they give any reasoning or have they just pulled a number out of thin air? 10 current PL teams have stadiums under 35K. In the Championship there's only 2 over 35K. I'm all for planning ahead so its easy to expand but equally I don't want to be sat in a stadium that's well below capacity...
