“And it took five armed policemen to do it” and meanwhile this morning the police are bemoaning having to take officers off of serious crime incidents, to deal with the increase of protests. Protests which they and the BBC would appear to put solely down to posts on social media, as opposed to peopl...

Exiled, you don’t know what reasons individuals have for displaying the flag, it’s presumptuous to say it’s for this and that, it could be for any number of reasons. Some  might have put them up recently in a celebration of their concerns over the last 30 years FINALLY being taken as a serious consi...

Westside - “Thousands cross in small boats from France to England. Perhaps ask them, why they think England is better than France”? I thought exactly the same for years, and then someone on the radio said that in the majority of cases, it’s because English is their second language. I don’t know how ...

Deliverance

“In both instances is was driven by potential property developments and, if I remember correctly, and I'm sure some on here will relish in correcting me, the possibility of building operating a casino attached to both new football grounds” Totally agree Mike, although I think the casino thing was on...

Wils, saw a Besiktas youth game in Levent, as have friends whose son was playing for them. Approx 50 people watching, flares, fire crackers (thought the linesman would have a nervous breakdown) and the arrival of 2 police vans. For a youth game....

Used to go and watch Exeter Falcons speedway team in the 1970s. They won the national league in those years, when there were more well known and established teams around, a lot of them including the Falcons have folded though. They got stitched up by the local council when the ground was taken over ...

(Liz Fraser (Cocteau Twins) supposedly had that as a tattoo, but not sure if that was an urban myth)

Used to love birds coming into the garden, but stopped trying to feed them years back as the cats were knocking off too many of them Really miss robins especially, as it got to the point of them tapping on the window early winter mornings for food. The pond has attracted a toad in the last couple we...

Same.

Still at the dizzy height of 7th though.

Combining their time at Brum as well as here, are there any other owners in the entire history of the game, who can match their record for getting relegated from the top flight? I’d be very surprised if there were. 3 relegations in 5 years is certainly something that’s never been ‘achieved’ by anyon...

Toms, if you (or any others) are interested in that ice bucket thing, Qianly do a bronze galvanised one on Amazon for 24 quid. Barst water pump with LED lighting is also 24 quid. All you need then is some water plants and some bricks to balance the pump near the top of the water. Bung in a few water...

I think the crux of problems we'll be facing soon, will be down to those with the wealth and power taking Orwell's 1984 as a fantastic blueprint for the future, as opposed to the nightmare it was intended to portray.

With the stable door blown open and the horse very much bolted.

With the handle the world now has on hackers, it makes perfect sense to go for AI full throttle.

What could possibly go wrong.

If anyone’s toyed with the idea of getting a lwater feature going in their garden, been trying to get something going in the garden that’ll attract frogs and newts, but got nowhere on that front, other than keeping water snails alive. On the other hand though, a really good thing anyone can put toge...
