  1. Eh? The news are banging on about how politically and ethically he's basically exactly the same as Francis?
  2. You mean to say you aren't doing the Leicester half?
  3. WOOOOHOOOOO! First completed run for 6 weeks since picking up IT Band Syndrome. Just a gently 3.5km but christ, it's good to be back!
  4. Just watched the first two episodes of The Eternaut on Netflix. So far, very promising!
  5. Good keeper. Mads has had a howler second half of the season.
  6. I'm not watching anymore Vardy press stuff. Sick of my lip quivering. Heart breaking.
  7. Yeah sorry, I wasn't aiming the integration thing at you at all - it's just one of those common arguments that comes up which I think doesn't hold much sway.
  8. It has to be that, because like every major economy, the UK makes no economic loss with immigration, in fact most evidence points to a small economic gain. Basically, lots of people just don't like foreigners is what it boils down to, in the most simplest term. Whether that's innate or bred by media and politicians like Farage is a good question though. Integration is a myth too. Cultures and communities have always had their 'places'. Most people in the UK don't even bother speaking to their neighbours, let alone those next door but one, because that's the world we live in, so to somehow make out like it's 'oh they don't integrate' is rich at best - and if it really is an issue, then it's an issue on both sides. I don't imagine blokes from Eyres Monsell are chomping at the bit to go and volunteer at a mosque in Evington (and I don't see why that's an issue - I get on perfectly fine on a personal level with the countless Muslims, Sikhs and Hindus I work with, but that doesn't mean I should be going round their houses and getting involved with their social lives does it?). Basically integration doesn't exist on any level anymore, it's an abstract and probably outdated construct to be honest. People of all faiths and nationalities tend to stick to their own small social groups. As long as everyone pays their taxes, respects the law and abides by general politeness I think that's all we can hope for. Should also say, the more you marginalise people, the less likely they are to 'integrate', surely?
  9. Brass eye is superb.
  10. Krush Superdelic by TwobyTwo brewing at Stoneygate Classroom. Lovely (but not quite as nice as Leapfrog).
  11. Stared at this whilst having a post-work post-pint piss. Made me feel somehow less alone.
  12. I quite like running in the rain if it's not too cold. Heat can **** off when it comes to running.
  13. Why would you do such a thing?
  14. Louis is a king. An absolute king. He really knows how to show people up, properly.
  15. I'm just not sure, looking at the season he's had and his age, that any prem clubs are going to be willing to pay his wages.
  16. Fook knows who's arse they pulled 4 rounds out of. Getting fed up with boxing scoring tbh. Ruining the sport in a big way.
  17. Just caught up with the first two episodes of Last of Us S2. Epic.
  18. Been as rubbish as everyone else since Ruud took over, sadly.
  19. Going Sheff Weds in my opinion.
  20. The student living in a carpark at the end of tonight's Ambulance had me in tears. Its been an emotional day.
  21. Just bought a house hear Barnsley?
  22. Yup, I've done a lot of research over the years on the Kinahans. As a boxing fan, they pretty much own the game, which is depressing.
  23. Andrew Garfield on tonight's Who Do You Think You Are - absolutely mind blowing family history, and pretty damn harrowing too.
  24. He's a good lad.
