We've preserved Coventry as it was in the 1970s to give you the authentic 2Tone experience.

No they aren't, they now protest at hotels used for housing assylum seekers. There's a block of flats not too far from me, that is goig to be used to house them and another on the list to be approved. The housing association who own it are paying the current tenants thousands of pounds to move out, they are al jumping at the chance to be re-housed and have wads of cash. That didn't stop a customer ranting about it in my car last night. "Hundreds of men of fighting age" is how he described them, it's alright for them but the government wouldn't pay me sick pay at the start of the pandemic because I had cancer and didn't do my accounts. He had to live off the 10 grand he had in his current account and yes, the house he lives in is in the £750,000 bracket

Thankfully armco had been invented or the end of the Italian Job would hve been a best -case scenario. One of our Party jumped out of the back doors as it reached the armco and we found him shouting for help hanging from the branch of a tree growing out of the cliff. One death, one serious injury. I found the body of the lad that was killed, it emerged under my feet as we were pushing the bus uphill to free the seriously injured lad whose arm was trapped betweeen the front of the bus and the other cliff face when the bus wedged itself across the road. They still tried to charge us for a bed we didn't break at the end of the holiday but thats a completely different story from the same week. There's enough stories from skiing trips in the 80s for at least a few chapters of the book I'll never write

Tip: If you're going on a bus, make sure it has snow chains on or you might end up on the front page of a UK newspaper like I did

Uber was offering more money for other jobs nearby. It's what happens when theres a shortage of people to drive taxis of any description and the company in question allows drivers to cancel bookings at any point before pickup. Uber don't care because they'll earn more money from the new more expensive booking too. The driver might have had a better offer from Bolt or any of the other comapnies they accept bookings from. Your Uber driver is also your Bolt driver and also the driver for the local cab firm. Various pieces of legislation and court rulings in tandem with a shortage of drivers caused by the pandemic and local authorities refusal / inability to get new drivers on board has turned the Privaste Hire market into the wild west. In London specifically, the London PH law (which is different to the rest of England and Wales) doesn't help much either

If the roles were reversed, she'd have been taking a job with an organisation that she investigated. That is a completely different ethical question. But when you have had the Tory Party praising he publicly for weeks leading up to the investigation saying that she was impartial and above reproach, even so far as Badenoch wanting her to be the Permanent Secretary in her department well after the investigation. The conspiracy theory really doesn't add up.

Anyone know why Sanchez was benched for Brighton? -
Even though we've had a few TS conversations on here and at least one very recently, I still can't name a single song either. I've even sold the one record I knowingly owned that featured her (not because she was was on it, it was just terminally dull) She should be stopped from shamelessly exploiting vulnerable teenagers and blocking the limited number of pressing plants there are worldwide with her albums inspired by Heinz. When I was in RTE in that London, I noticed TS albums and they had stickers on saying something along the lines of... "Released in 8 different limited edition colours, each with their own special insert - Collect them all." - Thats the best part of £200 to be spent on ONE ALbum and to only end up with 8 copies of the same music that they stick on a Crossly once and ruin it. It seriously is exploitation

Having captained Saka, Haaland only scoring 4 is a hopeful sign for this week Also Wildcarded, 3 Brentford, 3 Brighton with a view to the weeks ahead, similar plan to Stevo Now have £3.5mil in bank which will come in handy after the nutty weeks In my money league only two of us have used the WC this week, me and the person leading the league, and we've picked pretty similar teams which makes me feel good about the choice I made. I'm never going to catch him but the two sandwiched between us I hope to and both of them had already used their WC (stupidly IMO and their BB, one also used his TC). Both of those players currently have no Bri / Bre -
No clue sorry because it's neither the Goldmine standard (US - used by Discogs) or the UK Record Collector standard used by a lot of UK sellers A/B probably relates to the sides of the vinyl but whther thats out of 5 or 10 and which end of the scale is the good end, I have no clue
