    I went out and bought a Ricoh camera. This was years before the Ricoh was ever built, mind.

    I haven't been to the Channel Islands either, but then of course, they are not part of the UK. ;)

    Not as much outrage on this as there should be

    Missing the point, Gaz. No-one is blaming him for this incident in this article, they are just saying he is always very vocal and quick in condemning, but because it's the good old Saudi Arabians he's not saying much at all here. This bit wasn't a go at Trump, it was ponting out how we turn a...

    In our household all there is, is a thing called bansexual.

    Lovely! Congratulations! So glad it went okay in the end .... sort of and sorry to hear of the mum's pain. :( You will of course be reminded what she went through for many years to come. Don't think I will ever forget the details of ours, because she was born at 14.44 and weighed 14 lbs 14...

    No, we have never been that last minute. I think 5 or 6 days notice is the least we have ever given. Always seems to be someone who drops out every year. Grrr!!

    When we have ever done it (on very rare occasions), we have told the parent and child that someone has dropped out and usually we have booked an activity for say 6 or 8, so already paid for it (Laser Quest, WaterWorld, trampoline park, etc.) Thing is, you have already paid the money. My...

    Sancho has done more in 7 or 8 minutes than Sterling has in the last 7 or 8 matches.

    Yeah, but with the mum I mentioned, she would invite 20 and then as many as 10 would drop out. That's an awful lot of food waste.

    Had that a few times. Don't mind at all to be honest. Remember talking to one parent (her kid wasn't that nice if truth be known) and she was saying that every year she would throw a party and parents would say their kid would be attending and then last minute quite a few would drop out. As she...

    He was a lovely lad to be honest. Think the problem may have been that he went up there to supervise workers and maybe they didn't like a 'foreigner' muscling in.

    For some reason we also seem to forget Harry Kane is in the side. Used to be that everything was going through him. Now we don't even seem to be bringing him into play at all.

    England are really progressing though. You can clearly see where Southgate is building and making us a better side.

    It is. The West treat them like great buddies. All down to money and investment.

    Things that annoy you

    I just now always get the bus to the hospital. Gave up on parking. I buy a Daysaver. It's £4 and obviously pretty much always cheaper than you would pay to park. I do live in Cov though. You also know you are going to get there, whereas with a car there can be huge queues and you might not...

    Ah well. This is England. Just as unpredictable as the City.
