    Heading a football causes dementia and should be banned?

    Yeah, dementia is fatal brain failure. A lot harder to die from arthritis. Think this is a real and serious issue. Can't say I know what the answer is, but if there is a link something has to be done. My mum has dementia and 6 months ago she was fine. The decline in her memory in just a few...

    What an amazing turn around in cultural habits

    I think I only ever got drunk twice. Once when I was 16 and then once on my birthday when I was about 30. Felt absolutely awful all day the next day, on both occasions and have never ever been drunk again since. Never want to feel that shitty again.

    Maybe. I like him as a bloke, he seems thoroughly decent and I really want him to succeed. No winning record though.

    This weeks WC qualifiers

    Could be very tough for England. Guessing best scenario is Poland from the first pot.

    Would be very happy with 9-7. We do need to beat Dallas though.

    You sure that's Elton John? Looks more like Timmy Mallet.

    Netflix Originals.

    Yeah, don't think Designated Survivor is as good as the first series. Going all a bit formulaic this time round and lost a bit edge.

    What an amazing turn around in cultural habits

    Shame. What a complete turnaround from being the worst city in Europe to the best.

    Two men kissing

    Yep, it would have more than likely been 'two poofs? Getting married? Yuck!!' Times have indeed changed. Always used to feel sorry for one gay friend. His name was Frazer and when he told us in the group that he was gay, none of us even batted an eyelid, but he wasn't a happy chappy because out...

    Two men kissing

    Yeah, it's just what we are used to. Used to turn my head every time I heard a foreign language in Coventry, because it was such a rarity. Now you hear as many foreigners talking as you do hearing people talk English. There's just some things we don't understand because they are new to us and...

    Two men kissing

    So true and what I am saying. Took me about 20 years to get used to men wearing kilts. Think there has just been a sudden upsurge and seemingly every single programme on TV has a gay couple kissing. I am very interested to see if I become more accepting the more I see it. Had gay friends...

    Two men kissing

    Have you ever seen a dwarf albino gay couple kissing though?

    Two men kissing

    Yeah, like I say, I think it is more of a generation thing. We tend to be shocked or confused by what we don't understand, or that is against the norm we are used to. Always used to find it incredibly weird when I saw Muslim women in the full burka for the first time.

    Two men kissing

    My daughter says there's loads of kids coming out as gay, or trans gender, or gender fluid etc and loads in relationships. Just something I never ever encountered or heard of when I was at school. I don't remember anyone being obviously gay when I was at school. I see two guys holding hands...

    What are you currently listening to?

    My brother used to go to charity shops and second hand record fairs and just buy any band with a strange or daft name. That's how I got introduced to The Stinky Puffs.

    Two men kissing

    She actually hates to see either men or women kissing.

    Two men kissing

    I obviously don't just mean a peck. An elongated kiss. Doesn't have to be that passionate or animated, just a full on kiss. Thought it might be a generation thing, but then just asked my 13 year old daughter and she has said exactly the same thing. She has a number of gay friends, in fact, her...

    Two men kissing

    Thoughts? I have absolutely no problem at all with people being gay and being in a relationship, just still cannot watch two men kissing and have to turn away when I see it. Just wondering if it is a generation thing or not and whether younger people are more accepting because to them it is...

    That's weird, cos your missus' pee smells like chicken flavour crisps as well.
