  1. I only listened on the radio. They never mentioned him looking tired.
  2. Do we know if he came off for a knock or if it was woeful tactics yet?
  3. They've certainly had a slick campaign
  4. Anyone who slightly thinks communism might be ok is evil - Joseph McCarthy c. 1950
  5. I've just had a missorted letter in my sorting which was addressed to Santa. I was so tempted to put a return to sender sticker on it and tick the "deceased" box.
  6. Is summons a verb? No, it's a noun, regardless of what the above says, the verb form of summons is summon. How can you receive a verb? Ergo, summonsed is incorrect. Before anyone says, "but OED!", this is the same organisation that thinks skibidi and delulu are words.
  7. It is not.
  8. Are you calling Scandinavia a willy?
  9. The grammar of journalism today. Man to be charged over abusive messages to footballer Jess Carter - BBC News https://share.google/wO9eoaCMmuWd0k80N It's "summoned", not "summonsed". If you receive a summons, it's not summonsing you to court, similarly, you're not summonsed. (Though worryingly, spell check doesn't pick up on this.)
  10. Almost everyone at my workplace loves Mrs Brown's Boys (myself excluded) and only myself and a couple of others watch comedy panel shows (as you say, the only good humour these days).
  11. Reminds me of Jewel Staithe.
  12. As with so many geographic questions, we should let Ticket to Ride games educate us. Which version is this? Why, it's Nordic Countries I see, and it includes Finland Thank you, Ticket to Ride.
  13. Spare's sis-in-law.
  14. Just to show how attitudes change... William de Normandy was an illegal immigrant... and they made him King!
  15. I do think that what would have been seen twenty years ago as "a hard taskmaster", is today called a bully.
  16. I delivered a parcel today (first day back on delivery, though I still can't drive) and there was no one in, so I tried the back gate, which was unlocked. They obviously have a dog cos their yard was covered in turds. At least, I hope they have a dog
  17. There's a very obvious inherent problem with this. If you are a genuine asylum seeker (and it may come as a shock to some, but they do exist) then you have to enter another country illegally, since your own country won't exactly wave you through customs.
  18. There's always going to be several nations for whom the kick off times will be inconvenient. Same for any global sporting event.
  19. Fifa accused of breaching own rules with Trump award - https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c04vq6ldv6lo Get him gone - both of them.
  20. To be fair, whoever gets the Donbass gets a bombed out strip of land that's good for nothing until a few billion is spent on it. Kind of a white elephant.
  21. It's the equivalent of a pro boxer and an amateur boxer watching someone getting a kicking in the street and the pro boxer saying to the amateur, "why don't you do something?"
