Free Falling Foxes

Mine too. I then had a Amiga 1200 which had a 80mb hdd. A friend said I had wasted my money. '80mb drive, you would never use it all' He said.

I popped over to Amazon and yes, you can still by them and a USB floppy disc drive. Looking at the reviews, folk are still buying them today.

Floppy discs. Mrs. FFF is sorting through a box of her uni work from way back and at the bottom she found one. The storage capacity is a massive 1.44Mb. Now you can get many, many gigabytes on something smaller than a grain of rice.

Sixty years ago almost to the day, The Beatles famous 'butcher' cover photo shoot took place.

There is a clip from a recent meeting where Trump has some of his sycophants either side of him. One is coming out with nauseous and numerous 'praises' for Trump and when he finally finishes, Trump turns to another fella to his right and actually says, beat that! And this other fella actually does his best to do just that. It was absolutely unbelievable. I sat aghast watching it.

I really do think that area to the west of the city has had more than its share of development over the last 55 odd years. This also includes the very recent past. Numerous housing developments and also industrial buildings/warehouses. Throw into the mix that a new tip (recycling centre) is proposed for the golf course site, despite another opening very recently just a few hundred yards away on the Sunningdale industrial estate, really means all sorts of environmental pressure is placed on the area. Plus, of course, you have the M1 running along it's boundary as well several other major roads. Surely it would be an idea to leave the open space area as it is, to provide a natural 'lung' for the local area. Perhaps those who campaigned hard against these development plans missed a trick? They could have proposed developing the area as The Peter Soulsby Arboretum. That would have appealed to the local politicians vanity and need for a legacy and would have been far more environmentally beneficial. Re the need for housing and the government's 1.5 million homes pledge. I listened to a discussion recently that argued there is sufficient brown field sites up and down the land - including Leicester. It would help locally if we stopped developments aimed for students and building new places of worship.

The first casualty of war.....

Negotiating with itself? Is this proof positive Trump really is a w4nker?

First I've heard of this https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0ffz017?partner=uk.co.bbc&origin=share-mobile There are of course, too many other examples When you consider the coverage of the McCann case, it is unbelievable really.

Wrong thread

I volunteer at a local school and in the school library, one shelf contains just 5 books: three bibles, one copy of the Koran and a book called Funny Stories and Limericks. The librarian, or one of the students perhaps, certainly has a sense of humour.

True. But some really wonderful things happened thereafter last time.

Our fitness levels (lack of) will kick in during the second half.

I began my apprenticeship there in 1974. The site had become Marconi Radar by then. Many of the tools you took out the store still had BTH engraved on them. This was euphemistically referred to as, Big Thick and Heavy. The large assembly building was called building 29 and a smaller block on the site was referred to as building 13. I assume these were left over references to the BTH days. None of the other buildings had numerical names however that had survived into the 70s. To help folk get their bearings from this aerial shot, that's Abbey Park taking up most of the centre of the picture.

I remember when Cyril Knowles (Spurs) slipped on some snow at the side of the pitch at Filbo whilst taking a throw-in, the Kop erupted into, Nice one Cyril, nice one son. Nice one Cyril, let's have another one One for the oldies.

Has Harry Roberts made the 'Songs we sang' thread? One of the more unfortunate songs that we sang as police patrolled the side of the pitch back in the day.

The young Grandson of a friend of ours spotted our car in the garage and asked me quite innocently, why is your car in the garage?

I would normally have a preference but as its looking unlikely we'll be playing either in anycase next season, I'm totally ambivalent towards it.

Awww, you know. Sent off in his first game, injured in his second. Typical LCFC

Very noticeable and yes, annoying.
