  1. Yes, I think that is correct. I think the story is actually that Ukraine asked him to turn it on and he refused, rather than he turned it off. But Musk didn't use the sanctions as a justification for not turning it on, he claimed he didn't want to start WWIII
  2. Soooooo close to a twofer Wordle 816 3/6
  3. F***, we havent had his ex-wife’s funeral yet, I thought I'd see him at that next week. They were still quite close even though they’d been divorced decades. I knew he’d been ill because Annie used to tell me that she’d been round his to take him a few bits and sort his house out after he came out of hospital. I shall play a reggae CD that he sold me out of a bag (along with *ahem* herbal products) in his honour in the morning. Fairly sure they have a son, well I know Annie does, I presume Geoff was the father. Imagine having to deal with that.
  4. You know when Trump was impeached, or even Clinton before him, everyone knew exactly why and it had been talked about for months on end prior to the actual announcement Here you don't know why and it's just been announced, it's a bit of a mystery. You'd expect these credible events to be in the public domain, unless of course.... its just a load of bollocks
  5. False equivalence, she's committed no crime and isn't on any kind of a formal trial Yes absolutely but I rather suspect it was what she was told to do, they aren't mutually exclusive positions
  6. Sorry to quote myself but the Indie were being rather shit at their research in that article as I suspected. They said "their worst election result in more than a century", whilst yes, that would be true, it rather understates the magnitude of that predicted result The Representation of the People Act 1832 changed forever the way parliament was constituted, so comparisons before that are irrelevant (you thinks its currently undemocratic, you aint seen nuttin) 124 Tory MPs would represent their lowest number of MPs in parliament since parliament was constituted as we currently know it or 192 years if the election is next year You really could claim it would be their worst election result under the current system
  7. I'd suggest there was more than one actress that played the role over the years and we are both correct
  8. The Whoever it’s sponsored by this year Arena in Manchester springs to mind here Another one on the list It’s rare I ever want to do an arena show anyway but I’ve never been to a good arena In fact Pete’s reminded me of that Bunnymen gig which as arenas go was alright because a) it wasn’t remotely sold out because bumped into people I hadn’t seen in ages by wandering around a bit and the downstairs was standing only
  9. You only seem to get two OS generational updates with your Android device, meanwhile my 6 year old iPhone still has the latest OS Also, because Android itself is configurable by the device manufacturer, there is no standard Android, some things are deliberately turned off in the background by the manufacturer to improve the performance of their device, which is ok unless you actually need to use that feature, when it completely sucks, impossible to tell though before you get the phone
  10. Yep, dreadful place. I think that was only one of two gigs I've been to there
  11. Hopefully they were paying you to stay there, fancy putting windows in a Hotel that looks directly at Birken Vasey
