  1. I can confirm that you and my missus are of like minds. She is nursing a fat lip atm
  2. I'm from Aylestone and MPH, before landing in N Carolina was living on Walnut Street......Yerse we is real Merricans.
  3. And @Ric Flair I remember tearing me a new one about the fact that Vesty might have something to offer. Of course I never imagined he might be as useful as this albeit in the Championship.
  4. Yeah I spotted that and revised it
  5. To beat Reading's max points total, we need 32 points from 15 games = 2.13ppg Over the last 15 games we have accumulated 38 points = 2.53 ppg It's possible!!
  6. I have been thinking that this might be a better way of dealing with perpetual offenders without sending them off for the rest of the game. The professional foul, i.e. pulling back a player en-route to the goal area is, for me, a foul currently only penalized by a innocuous yellow card. I think the sin bin would be a useful deterrent to this cynical foul.
  7. Maguire and Evans starting for MU
  8. I would ask for an itemized quote. That way you will be able to judge exactly what it is you are paying for and at what cost per item. This is standard practice on large contracts but not so much on this type of work so you may get some resistance. As to drainage that depends on all manner of things but basically if it's holding standing water now, it will in the future. The question to ask is how will they alleviate this problem. If you choose their solution make sure they guarantee that it will work, otherwise you paying for nothing that helps. I would certainly advise a weed barrier. Inexpensive, or should be and gives a certain peace of mind
  9. Twelve sq. m, that's a relatively small area. That lawn will need to be excavated to a depth that will allow for granular stone sub-base (say 100mm), bitumen basecourse (40mm) and a top wearing course (19mm). That equates to about 2 cubic metres of lawn and soil to be dug up and carted away. The boundary that abuts the remaining lawn or garden will need to be retained with paviors or precast edging. Block paving will not require so deep an excavation and the 'edging' is a part of the block process. Raj's recommendation looks very good to my eye.
  10. How many have you got?

  16. What you need is to build a cockpit in the garage. No not that kind of cockpit. You'll need three flat screen tv's left right and forward. A gaming computer with a gazillion thingy bits also with a graphics card that that allows you to land in real time. If the foregoing is a bridge too far, a joystick and throttle control are absolutely necessary. Never mind the burritos mate, it's the fish you have to watch out for
  17. I did actually attained my pilots license in 1989. Much of that was to get over my fear of flying. After I stopped flying due to "I can't be arsed issues" I bought the MS program which I didn't take to. Later in the noughties I bought XPlane 10 which I really enjoyed. I can't speak to the likeness or reality to flying large jets but the Cessna 170 is quite true to the real thing. PS I'm sure 20 years later all of the flight sim programs have improved immeasurably.
  18. The Viking Museum is very interesting. I think we stayed at the Dean Court Hotel next to the Minster, a bit noisy when the bells ring.
  19. It seems like we have a glimmer of hope, whereas all weekend, I have had none. So for that, I am pleased.
  20. Give me a break, at your age a twitch is as a good as it gets.
  21. And I had to Google Cliff Notes. You're the gift that keeps on giving
  22. LCFC players and owners will come and go but the fans, especially those I know and a few have met from FT are the best. These people make the club. So the flames can lick away but nothing will change the respect and camaraderie I share with you.
