Still damn poor quality, though. I had the urge to have a KFC meal deal a few months ago. Lukewarm chips, chicken that was watery and quite slimy and the coating was barely noticeable as southern fried. Never again.

Me too.

Do you have a period of time before the renewal becomes "live"? If so, do the comparison site search thing. I did, and found a reputable insurance through Royal Bank of Scotland for about the same as my insurance co. before they put their prices up.

I'm not sure what that response means. I know some about the Russian revolution and the overthrow of the imperialists who were replaced by the Bolsheviks. WW1 caused Russia severe hardship, to the brink of famine leading to an uprising of the Russian people opposed to Russia's involvement in WW1, because of the hardship it was creating. That allowed Lenin to gain power and there was a coup and the Bolsheviks took control. The difference is now, there's no obvious hardship, there's unlikely to be a famine, so an uprising of different factions opposing Putin and the Russian state is unlikely. Propaganda and actions which generate fear among the populace, is a very powerful political tool in supressing opposition.

Do you truly believe that the average Russian citizen will form some sort of rebellion against the Russian state? You've read what has happened to opponents of Putin, I assume?

Why? This mantra that keeps getting trotted out that, because we won the PL title and then the FA cup, that the PL and the FA have got it in for us, is just ludicrous. I'm not denying the possibility of corruption within these organisations but the chances of us winning either of those trophies again is minimal and certainly not enough to cause the PL or the FA any concerns that might result in them behaving corruptly towards us is IMO, conspiracy theorising at it's extreme.

They won't. They will likely see it as a an isolated attack that will result in some response, but not "militarily". They've got the Stasi for that. Most Russian's believe in the war in Ukraine and will continue to support the army being there rather than being pulled back to counter a negligible (in the scheme of things) incident.

It's not a big pub and most of the people are regulars known to the landlord. If there was anyone he didn't recognise the game wouldn't be shown. Apparently one of the regs had a gripe with him and grassed him up.

Yeah, I can see where you're coming from. £3.90 a pint in my local and I don't drink 5-6 pints. 2 max. I guess I was using myself as the benchmark.

I bet Musk is loving the click numbers on this

Unless you've had it/got it/been affected by a loved one/friend with it you will never completely understand the emotions involved. It's easy to post shit without knowing the actual facts. Sadly these sorts don't give a **** if they offend or cause distress to others. All they (we) have is a laptop and a keyboard and that's all they (we) need to espouse their (our) views.

I hope it's not linked to Ukraine.

Huh? "£28 a month? go and spend even more in a pub each week". Can you really spend more than £28 a week watching Sky Sports in a pub? What do you watch?

Exactly this.

My regular pub used to but it got grassed up (by a regular customer who was not a foxes fan) and the landlord gave up his tenancy and left to avoid prosecution and potential evection by the brewery. Now it's fully brewery run. No dodgy streams anymore. And we have to suffer the limited choice of crisps and snacks dictated by the brewery. Grab bags of McCoy's at £1:60 a pop

If you were on anti-biotics you must have had a bacterial infection of some sort. Maybe a chest infection/pneumonia secondary to the 'flu?

That won't stop people speculating about her condition or type of cancer.

I'm referring this to Kate Middleton for confirmation

Not seen anything from @FoxesDeb for a while now. Hopefully all is ok.
