Both great, Seville definitely a prettier City with more to do. I think Granada is the best City in that region, although does tend to be more difficult to get to, espcially if over a long weekend. Normally a train/bus from Malaga. They still have proper tapas culture there, free plate of food with literally every drink. Got a list of bars for all of them I can share if you go for any of them.

Are we allowed comedy gigs in this thread? Went to see James Acaster's latest show last night. Not seen him live before but really enjoyed it. Won't spoil it for anyone else potentially seeing him, but it was quite a unique take on stand up.

Just bought the Bamino Plus. Seems it comes with all the accessories you need (portafilter, tamper etc). Is there anything you;ve upgraded to that have made a particular difference? Also any tips on where you get fresh beans from would be great as I've just been used to the ones from the local Coop. Hoping to see a big upgrade.

Where did you see them mate?

Saw this in Manchester on Friday. Brilliant show. Was basically 2 sets, Grand Don't Come For Free, then a set of classics off other albums. He was really on form.

Been a few times yeh, have only been to Pohorje which is in Maribor. I'd say it's very unpretencious, so not your stylish Apres ski experience that some people go for. It was nice and cheap with a decent range of slopes. Maribor is also a fun night out if you plan to stay local.

I know Slovenia well and just done 2-weeks there in June. PM me if you want any specific details. But whilst there would recommend a few bits in particular: Lake Bled obviously, just beautiful although does get very busy in the summer. I actually prefer the less touristy Lake Bohinj which is about a 30min drive from Bled. Much bigger and more dramatic looking, with Moutn Triglav overlooking it. Postjana or Skojan caves are well worth a visit. Postjana you get taken down into the caves on a train, then explore once down there. As others have said Ljubljana is a great City, such a nice friendly atmosphere, great places to eat along the river, castle on the hill and their beer/bar scene has really improved in recent years. It does get busy but never feels like a tourist trap. It's a 2-hour drive from Bled, but the Soca Valley region is just stunning, mountainous with the bluest river running through it. Loads of hikes, walks, climbs, rafting you can do here if you're into that. Piran is a really pretty little town, completely pedestrianised and very Italian feeling. If you do get the time, Izaola next to that is also very nice and Rovinj just down the coast in Croatia is one of the nicest places we've been for years. The seafood and views were incredible. Don't know anyone who leaves Slovenia without loving it so hope you have a great time! We go most years.

Really good point that. At any proper club he'd have been very concerned about his future.

Yeh I like that bar the sponsor, do we know the colour of the shorts?

Ohhh didn't clock that cheers. Shame, shame.

2 great cities. Anyone think it's worth booking flights or could they be dicks about the tickets?

Hmm, it's been a long time since I've seen it tbf, but I'd say that firmly planted itself in being a fun, silly, family friendly film. Disclosure Day doesn't really do that.

Anyone seen Disclosure Day yet? It's been getting slated from what I've seen but I quite enjoyed it. It's far from a classic though and felt like it couldn't quite decide whether to be a serious sci-fi/Alien film, or one that's a bit more silly and childish. It's probably somewhere in between. Worth a watch but wouldn't rush to the cinema. Got Odyssey booked in at the iMAX next.

Same, and it's a very visable indication of how little they care.

What are you basing this on though? Just assumptions? If you know the last time we had a big drop off in renewals that allowed these "plastics" in then fair enough. Based on my admittedly small sample, those I know who have sacked it off recently have been life long fans. I had a season ticket for 34 years before giving it up end of the season just gone. I am also pleased that some fresh faces will get a chance though.
