Here’s one: I know two separate people that put their squash in the fridge in the summer.

Surely whatever effect that has is outweighed by the 80% water in the glass once you pour it?

I don’t think ‘AKA’ makes any sense in the title of this thread.

I believe you can use a cup of water and a microwave, but I've yet to debase myself enough to try that method . It's only a matter of time, though.

it's true - you can cook most things in a microwave. Why you would choose to do so is a different matter.

20% squash seems pretty high. Unless it's that shit stuff you get from Heron...

I thought that earlier, and looked on a bottle to check, but it said 'dilute to taste', and it is not for me to criticise Shmmeee's taste.

The bottle says four parts water to one squash but I agree I’m more of a 5-10% guy.

Seems Robinson’s are ripping me off:

Can anyone help me win an argument?

I was considering buying a ticket for the first day (Thursday) of the final Ashes test at the Oval in September. My mate said that, because of the weather, it would be better to buy a ticket for day two instead. That way, if day one is rained off, then I get to see day one's play on day two. If day one is not rained off, then I get to see day two's play on day two as originally planned. By doing things this way I am doubling my chances of not being affected by the rain.
I suggested to him that I should buy a ticket for day 5 instead, as that would increase my chances of seeing some cricket by 500%, even if it rains, but he said that was silly.

Who is right?

Interesting on Twitter you are liasing with CW and a dodgy account that say the polls done on the ask Neil thread are unrepresentative of real fines. Care to expand on that?

I don't know who the other account is. Don't follow them, they don't follow me.

My suggestion that your narrow definition of a forum is preventing you thinking engagement with up to 15k people on the Facebook forum is unrepresentative in some way. Regardless of your self-importance, should all communities of fans not be in included?

Well you seem to be liking the poster on there referencing everyone on here as sheep who follow nick and my views and cannot think independently

CW and that Brexit cretin are obviously the same person or it’s that imbecile Kalns

I’ve said to you do a poll on the Facebook members - see if the trust board request your findings

If there are issues about behaviors and what people say on twitter why not continue the discussion on twitter rather than here? It's just a bit weird.

I don't think it's necessarily unrepresentative, it's quite a big sample size for a poll of this sort. I suspect they say it's unrepresentative because they don't agree with the results.

Although it's easy to quote 15k as the figure who have liked/followed the page on Facebook, there are nowhere near that many that actively engage in the discussion. The general feeling towards the Trust on the Facebook page is also very negative. The trust should be engaging with all fans, irrespective of their views, on all platforms. At the moment, with the exception of CJ who does try, the trust just dismiss off-hand the view of anyone who doesn't agree with them. It's not fit for purpose any more and they shouldn't be taken seriously by anyone.

I made the mistake of giving likes to Sky Blue Kid, ( who no longer posts on this forum anymore ) I DIDN'T AGREE with everything he said but when he said something I agreed with I would say so, BIG MISTAKE, the abuse ,the insults, all of the of the things you are having thrown at you, I even got accused of being Sky Blue Kids other account .

They will not give up, THEY WILL BORE YOU TO DEATH.
