    Black Prince pub in tile hill

    I’ve been in there for a pint. Wasn’t too scary, and I’m not exactly a hard nut. I had a quick chat with the barmaid, nodded hello to the locals, drank my beer, went home. Nobody bothered me - I don’t think you’ll get hassled just for being a stranger. Reminded me a bit of the Brewer and...

    Death List 2020

    Completely missed this. The Stranglers are brilliant, though I’d (politely) put ‘Get a Grip on Yourself’ as the one that demonstrates how good he was. Kind of like Bach on speed, with some heavy bass for back up. Off to listen to it now...

    Coronavirus Isolation - TV Shows to Binge

    Definitely. It’s a compelling piece of television... takes a little while to pull you in, but then it’s hard to stop watching.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I think SISU have burnt their bridges with most fans, but if Wasps were to fold up, and the club get the stadium at the sort of price that Wasps paid for it, and we’re back in the Championship, then SISU might find it’s not a bad time to sell... Lots of ifs there, I guess. :)

    UHCW Panorama Monday 20 April at 7:30 pm

    It might be a bit more scary if you were on the front line and being asked to risk your safety because of a lack of proper PPE and testing. Or having to work hugely long and stressful shifts, without adequate support or training, because of chronic long term underfunding. I can’t see why...

    What's everyone watching while on 'lockdown'?

    Have to fast forward through Mike’s bits, I’m afraid. Keep an eye out for ‘Flipping Bangers’ if you really like that kind of thing, it’s a bit more realistic...

    Coronavirus

    If you think that was a rant, then you want to get your skin checked - it’s looking a little thin. It was an explanation of why a Coronavirus party was a pretty bad idea. I put numbers in and everything to help, because not everybody gets it. It’s important that people do get it though...

    Coronavirus

    Letting this rip through the population by having Coronavirus parties is, politely, a really, really bad idea. Even Trump can see that. :) It’s about numbers and the fact that the virus kills healthy young people as well the old. Let’s say you want to get herd immunity by exposing 50% of 50...

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    Yep, but that’s the players rather than the clubs. Spurs and Newcastle are shameless in this regard, but then everyone knows that Mike Ashley is a fat c...

    City players who used to look a bit like Hitler

    Doesn’t anyone remember the chant... “Roland Nilsson’s Aryan Nation” I think it’s was the lesser known second verse to “Big fat Ron’s, Sky Blue Army”... :)

    If you had ever had the chance to play for the City....

    Kenny Sansom. Overweight, known to like a beer, best days behind me. :)

    Not news...!

    1) Although everyone hates them both, the insect version are actually of some benefit.

    Nintendo Switch

    Animal Crossing is a very gentle game that my kids like. Feels a little limited to me, but then I’m probably not the target audience! Mario Kart is a pick up and play at any time, and in essence is endless. Also, for free, Asphalt 9 can be downloaded. That’s a really high quality driving...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    With apologies for losing my rag, but it’s absolute idiocy to pretend that this isn’t real. The problem with people pushing the ‘no worse than flu’, or ‘it’s all made up’ line, is that it encourages to the kind of moronic behaviour that we’re seeing out there at the moment. If you don’t think...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Yes mate, it’s just a big ploy set up by your missus to stop you going down the pub. And all she had to do was get a few world leaders, a few hundred scientists, and a few thousand dead people to play along. I don’t mind the harmless idiots, they’re often quite funny. The dangerous idiots...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The pub thing is bananas, my mate went last night. His logic, “we’re all going to get it anyway”. That may or may not be right, but the point of all of this is that we don’t all get it at the same time. The reason for this is that you don’t want your folks, gasping for air, being left outside...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Ah, that’s a very good point, I’d not realised that in truth. You’d sense it’s a buyer’s market either way! :)

    Supermarket shortages

    How about your... actually, on second thoughts I’m not going there. :)

    Wasps downward spiral...

    It looks to me like someone might be trying to dump a lot of the bonds and is doing it in smallish blocks to avoid spooking the market...

    Coronavirus

    Just to add, this transcends party politics, I’d like nothing more than our Government’s approach to be spot on here and to prove all of the doubters wrong. I’m just not entirely convinced that it is.
