Very fun sport and nowhere near as demanding or technique heavy as squash and racketball. Problem is it's being conquered by estate agent/insurance broker/recruitment consultant types as another way for them to desperately prove they belong in the middle class.

At my old street in London the fire brigade smashed through a car that was causing a blockage to a house that had dialled 999. And I mean smashed through remembering the pics. They left leaflets scattered around the street saying they are legally bound to get to an emergency and you park on the street at your own risk of that. It was an acute problem on this street because it was the nearest free parking street to the station.

I live on a coastal island in the English Channel. Trust me for the 360 days of sideways rain and force 6-8 winds, the cool breeze of these days doesn’t mean you should live here for the weather.

Great tip - will have a look at this

I think for 10 days you will get very bored in Santorini. Yeh the views etc are nice but after 10 days I think that will wear thin. Also ofc it is a place overrun by Western tourists and all authenticness is gone, hence overwhlemigly overpriced, bring a sturdy credit card if you're gonna be there for 10 days

Yeh true, it's one metric of 'good' - actually probably the main metric of good if you live in the first/western world and you've signed up to a society where money is the most important thing in the world ever.

The Premier League generates around £10bn a year in gross value added to the UK, including from ticket sales, merchandise and tourism. That represents a 14-fold increase since the 1998/99 season, according to Ernst & Young, and is broadly comparable to England’s entire agricultural output. Clubs and players — who earn on average over £4mn per year — contribute £4.4bn in tax revenue, equivalent to the salaries of more than 100,000 NHS nurses. Altogether, the league supports an estimated 104,500 jobs. Since the launch of the top tier in 1992, when English football was recovering from a 1980s nadir of hooliganism and crumbling facilities, its quality and spectacle have fuelled a renaissance and attracted billions of viewers worldwide. In 2023/24, the league generated £1.7bn in international broadcast revenue alone, nearly equalling the rest of the UK television sector combined. Good counter argument to the happy clappers who hate modern football. Hopefully this position of dominance is not thrown away, and owners realise a big part of the 'product' and revenue generation is the local fanbase

Humidity and everything being built to conserve heat.

Nice tip thanks, location ensures all the recruiters, insurance brokers and product control dudes stay in the railway tavern whilst the good lads can enjoy this place and still be in spitting distance of McDonalds and train home

Unfortunately true. So many corporate tickets going. Everyone wrote Qatar 22 off and it turned it great. This will be the same

5 pints of siren ipa in Simon the tanner London Bridge

Yep correct transition migration is nothing as today. Wtf do happy clappers think people are gonna do when their land is unliveable and has no food or water because of the policy actions of said happy clappers. 'Yeh dw we'll just stay here and die because Farage said we're not welcome.' Will be a war like we've never seen.

AI is class for figuring out who filled in anonymous feedback

Haha yeh v true, to me the jam pot is more of a 'boozer' in that area.

Kairat or Astana, would like to go to Kazakh

York and Boston away would be greatly appreciated, similarly Skegness, Truro, Margate or Dover. But come on a good foreign trip is clearly needed. Didn't we play Celtic at home as part of the MON deal and their fans trashed a few bars in town, I was too young but have heard (prob exaggerated) stories.

Ibiza, Sherif Tiraspol, Atletico Nacional Medellin, Riga FC, Buxton away please. A good old fashioned Scottish tour too. It's about time the shambles club and ticket office did something for the fans. Most likely we are back to the days of Sunderland at home as the glamour friendly

Yeh I framed that confusingly given the thread title lol, I mean it is stuck because now I can only drink on weekends no matter what (unless on holiday obvs), This Thursday I am meeting a big group of mates at Bagatelle, love it there but I won't drink as it's Thursday. I've got loads of garden work to do on Saturday then driving in the evening so I won't drink hence 6-1 Next Thursday I have a big corporate do with all my people, free bar, will be loads of fun. But there's no way I'll be tempted to have a drink. Both weeks it's more sensible to drink thurs/fri. But once I say I'm gonna do something it becomes stuck in my mind with no flexibility.

I think he is framing it as a drink v non-drink day. I only drink fri and sat so also 'win' every week 5-2. This week I won't drink on Saturday so I am gonna win 6-1. Like you in my mid-20s I was working 7 days a week and 100 hours most weeks, so I used to drink everyday. You're young and pushing every boundary so it made complete sense then and was hugely enjoyable. I got a tiny bit more senior so now do not have to edit spreadsheets and v77 of proposal decks at 1am so started weekend only drinking, now it is a completely stuck habit which I am unable to break.

Not clear and obvious therefore no need to rule it out. Not a fault of the technology , the officials bottled it. If the same thing happened in Brighton v Villa in matchday 17 they carry on and the goal stands

Do they refund you if that happens? Never heard that scenario albeit I can never book trains that far in advance

Maxi Grosik is the best supermarket in Leicester
