Entirely appropriate I think. I only wish more people came to this thread - it reminds us all what it is to be human.

I echo every word written above here @FoxesDeb. You know where to find people, and I can only hope that writing this down here is one step closer to a better day for you. I am truly sorry to hear of this, as I am sure anyone reading it would be.

Some of my old school friends - all educated and intelligent - are playing the victim over all of this. I'd rather be deemed 'stupid and uncaring' than prove what a mug I am in allowing events like these dictate my entire day/week/life. Sorry to hear of this @st albans fox

Make other things priority.

Don't care, my point stands.

A lot of our fans really enjoy hating, don't they?

This has to be one of my favourite threads on here. On a long drive yesterday, my very good friend and I were discussing many imponderables around this subject. He's pretty well off and showed me his Vanguard investments, which he's held longer than I have, and he's been able to max out every tax year. He's made a lot of of money, albeit higher risk than I was willing to go (60/40 split stocks / shares felt racey enough for me in 2020). In the larger scheme of things, I'm far too late to the party, which is more an indicator that I only started caring about my life relatively recently, but I now have a chance. One thing he says, which comes across here loud & clear, is not to treat such an investment as a short term thing. The next foreseeable junction in the road will be when a parent dies, but it's probably wise not to assume anything in the mean time.

I wish you well too, and I'm sure others do too.

I don't think this post belongs in this thread, with the greatest of respect.

Thatched roofs are also notoriously difficult to get mortgages approved for - I speak as a former mortgage advisor here too.

This rather misses the point that the Union flag had been almost entirely co-opted by the far right.

DM me, and there will be countless other good people willing to talk and listen.

Horrible for you all, get better soon.

That's true, but I would add that people used to gather in pubs, & smoke, drink and talk the biggest load of crap you've ever heard - the difference then was it went no further. And I know at school people talked utter garbage too, until education opened minds that were willing to be opened.

It's grim if there's a misplaced pass...

Honestly, from a mental health point of view, avoid the main forum.

You support the wrong team.

It is very easy for this to happen when matters outside your control concern you. And very difficult to recognise in the moment.

Never mind Abdul coughing up possession in a terrible position.

You tried to veto their Rodgering.

I called Brendan out when he was born. I used to dream of living in a corridor....

Very sharp

It really wasn't, there was at least 3 players that contributed.

You just improved my day

Your timing is not necessarily the wisest God knows. Top 2. I think.
