The owl does look surprised and happy to be there. Camel looks put out.

It is quite hard to tell with most of the stuff posted in this thread.

Glad I sit far from the dugout. Might not bring my glasses, just to make sure.

Yeah its a bit of a circle-jerk in here sometimes, but to be fair they are also the most eloquent posters a lot of the time. The derision and snark is what gets me, some posters are just obnoxious whether they are right or wrong. Whatever, I'm a lurker 99% of the time. I think this is me as well. Floating voter, whole mix up of views from across the spectrum depending on the issue. I don't like all the social policies of the Greens or Lib dems etc, but also don't want the country to be ran by the low calibre of candidates that Reform puts up, in it for themselves. Labour are absolutely playing this as "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake", saying nothing of substance in order to not risk messing up their lead, which is largely based out of a quite right backlash against a pretty rancid 14 years of Conservative government. For the sake of gaining power, its probably a smart tactical move. They are saying "Change" but I don't see it, apart from red tie / blue tie. They've actually lost my vote at this point in the campaign compared to before the election was announced. If it was tomorrow, I'd spoil my ballot I think. But there's still a way to go and I'm open to being convinced by Labour.

"Jump up if you love Leicester" from the singing section was a step too far for me after the taco selection and nachos I had before the game, even though I wanted to I probably would have vommed. Really enjoyed the past two games atmosphere, hats off to the UFS guys because my voice is busted and I don't make a quarter of the noise they do.

Good news! Cigarette Juice!

If you had asked me 5 years ago I would have said yes, I'd have been proud and willing to fight for the country. Now I look around me at who and what I'd be potentially sacrificing my life to protect, and I think no way.

Sale at Krispy Kreme.

This has done me right up. Not sure me and my foreign partner will be able to live in the UK once her current visa runs out. She has a shiny new PhD though so the salary isn't completely unachievable. For many though, that would represent very significant pay bump needed.
