Must admit I struggle with the scrolling bar down the side. Can never find what I want either with so many menus so I just get one of the kids to do it for me.

It's really not surprising.

 

But, admittedly, am slightly disappointed that the Migrant Crisis thread got shut - despite some name-calling by a couple of posters - as there were genuinely good replies in that thread (am not being biased, btw).

The same child had two separate tantrums on bus journeys this week.

 

I really felt for his Dad. Nightmare scenario for all.

Chilled red wine. I love it on a summer night. And with Chicken. Or fish. Don't give a shite what the etiquette is, chilled red with a grilled chicken burger is gorgeous

And, like me, speak out loud to the screen: 

 

'no, I don't want a drink' 

'no I don't want to give to charity'

'yep, yep, pay, thank you, now what?'

Pinot Noir chilled on a hot day is an absolute treat.

All red wine is disgusting no matter what the temperature. Just tastes rank.

I understand and appreciate where you’re coming from here, but I think you need to accept that not everybody thinks you’re as good as you think you are, Jon.

Yeah Leicester got a hammering from him and the support act.

 

Can imagine the triggered Derby fans wanting shout “We’re their rivals, not Leicester!”

I’m 29 and at the risk of sounding like a grandad, I’ve noticed a lot of “youths” wearing balaclavas in broad daylight. Weird. 

[Daggers]

I say, if you do have to destroy the planet, at least do it so they give you free food and wine.

 

I’m not doing another thing abroad unless they pop me on business class or better in future. This is ace.
