Goodness me

As much as I dislike Everton it's an iconic stadium and I'm very disappointed I never got the chance to go.

Guessing this won't make members so I'll also join the queue for a ticket if anyone can help out...

I always appreciate you going first!

This is brilliant. Showed it to my ex-Spurs supporting Dad who got quite misty-eyed. I feel like football changed less between 1960 and the early 90s, when I started going, than between the 90s and now. How I would love to go back and experience a game like that one more time.

I think they felt bad about yesterday's screw up so made it easy. #WhenTaken #338 (30.01.2025) I scored 950/1000👑 1️⃣📍505 km - 🗓️0 yrs - 🥇185/200 2️⃣📍1.8 km - 🗓️5 yrs - 🥇195/200 3️⃣📍748 km - 🗓️6 yrs - 🥈171/200 4️⃣📍772 m - 🗓️1 yrs - 🥇199/200 5️⃣📍239 m - 🗓️0 yrs - 🥇200/200 https://whentaken.com

Always think it's ironic that it is the cafe latte that is most identified with the wokerati elite when for me it's maybe the most proletarian coffee choice.

Coffee like alcohol or cigarettes is addictive and people will stick to what they like and know I suppose. Even if I deviate slightly from my coffee routine I feel a bit crap. I also wonder if because in modern life it's so difficult for people to buy property, afford to have kids or even pets, we splurge on food and drink because it helps maintain the illusion that we are an affluent society.

I just like a simple espresso but the widening of coffee varieties available is one of the best developments in British society in recent years. A positive effect of immigration. One thing I would say is that the caramel syrupy stuff places like costa and starbucks do is pretty disgusting but I'm willing to accept that if it means more coffee choice in general. Anything but instant coffee. I still think a coffee and fresh pastry in the morning is among the greatest of life's pleasures. Would find it easier to give up alcohol. Weird how many Brits see it as some kind of woke lifestyle choice instead of a daily essential. We celebrate choice in all other food and drink, like ale for example, but for some reason coffee choice winds a lot of people up and is seen as some kind of urban liberal elite thing.

The area between Bergamo and Trento is very beautiful. Lots of villages, mountain landscapes, cozy inns etc. Easy to drive up there. Brescia isn't a very beautiful town but has some great historic sites and there's a lot of old Lombard places and churches round there that are worth seeing.

great uni imo

Always interesting how many Brits see Russia as a world power but not the EU.

You always say this and I always point out that my recommendations are basically the same five countries I have been to Bergamo but i vaguely recollect someone off the forum lived there so I'll pass.

The only one I know is the Counting House, which has a great interior. Fullers pub, so well kept beer but no real range. Don't really know the area and I don't think it's great for pubs. Closer to Kings X and Euston you get some good ones.

To be fair we have anti-obesity drugs and planes that don't try to kill you, two things useful for Americans.

Americans have convinced themselves that Europe has no technology or innovation.

They do love a bit of central Asia #WhenTaken #335 (27.01.2025) I scored 873/1000 (💡x1) 🏆 1️⃣📍2.5 km - 🗓️14 yrs - 🥈173/200 2️⃣📍1.3K km - 🗓️1 yrs - 🥈163/200 3️⃣📍💡1.6 km - 🗓️14 yrs - 🥈173/200 4️⃣📍545 km - 🗓️1 yrs - 🥇183/200 5️⃣📍442 km - 🗓️5 yrs - 🥇181/200 https://whentaken.com

Exactly. Stuff from Liverpool and Forest winds me up a bit. The Tottenham stuff just makes me laugh. Joke club.

In ten seasons from 2009/10 to 2018/19 they actually matched or beat their 15/16 points total 5 times. In other words, that was their joint 6th best season in that decade. Absolutely remarkable fanbase.

still creases me up that their fans have memed themselves into thinking they came 2nd.

Another one to add to the list! We were garbage and 2-0 down and somehow Elvis Hammond and Mark de ****ing Vries turned it round. It's like their luck in 61 has permanently cursed them against us.

I noticed that a few posters who use it as a way of disparaging others' points will also be the same people who are like 'we must teach kids to critically engage with arguments they disagree with online'. But yeah, you're right of course, no need to be overly sensitive. We're all just passing time at work. Hope nobody's tracking my internet usage....
