    Bits of the UK you've never been to .....

    Except for the Scottish. ;) As with most things, it depends where you go I suppose. I know a lad who moved up to Aberdeen and got so much shit for being English and also a friend of my daughter's, who went to live in a very small town somewhere in Scotland and her mum said people were not nice...

    Wales are awful

    Yes, not trying to knock their achievement. Funnily enough, when the won it in 1950, that only had 13 teams in it as well. That's when England famously lost to the USA 1-0.

    Netflix - The Haunting of Hill House

    Right, yeah. Think that Vincent Price one might be The House on Haunted Hill.

    Wales are awful

    Only 4 European teams decided to enter due to the distance they had to travel. Maybe that's what confused me.

    Netflix - The Haunting of Hill House

    Yep the 63 film is excellent. Julie Harris if I remember correctly. Scared me as a child. The Liam Neeson one was indeed very poor.

    Not as much outrage on this as there should be

    If it were Iraq, or Iran, or Libya, or Pakistan I think the words would be much stronger, but of course it's our 'friends' from Saudi Arabia. Those lovely people we all love doing business with. This whole episode seems outrageous and to happen inside a consulate too? Turkey 'has recording...

    Think I have about three Gorky's albums. Loved both the Super Furries and Gorky's when they were around.

    It's always the weather that has put me off. Best bet I think for me would be to not book anything at all and then when there's a sustained bout of good weather, go up.

    Nuneaton Boro on the brink of folding

    Or alternatively, Wasps move there. Think we may have to move them back to London in stages.
