  1. @Eidolonand @Phil Silversbetter get editing their posts, Betty White carked it today in 2021
  2. Given the news in the Bill Esterson Tweet and the Tory Whopper in the Scottish Tweet The Tory Whopper also tweeted this today Thats gratitude for you isn't it
  3. Grandstanding waste of public money. The evil cows sentence was Life with a minimum term set to 29 years, the sick fathers sentence was 21 years. Neither of those are particularly lenient I'm not sure what Sue Ellen thinks will be the new outcome, imagine if the sentences get reduced The courts are clogged up enough as it is.
  4. The Villa fan in me always reacts badly to ELO
  5. I was a Hooker before I got too tall and became a wing forward I suspect you and Penguin may be from different eras, back in the 70s and 80s before the Union game was professional the scrum was nowhere near as well managed as it is now and lessons in school really didn't teach you much about how to do it safely. It really was horrendous, the headbuts as the two front rows came together for example were often just ignored, the biting the gouging and all the other "dark arts" were just "part of the game". Raking someone one the floor in a ruck or maul was fairly standard Different game these days (and for the better)
  6. They've fessed up now and said interview didn't meet it's editorial standards, so that's alright then. The mind boggles how they ever thought that was acceptable The Maxwell's do indeed have many powerful friends in many places and even IF the mistakes are innocent the suspicion of a cover-up will always be there, that it continues after the trial, just leaves me without words because if it is an innocent mistake, it's gross incompetence. But we already have the Royal Family, The Johnson family, The Met and the BBC either not acting appropriately or involved in throwing shade over the events. It's quite mind blowing when you look at the connections
  7. Oh look the Met choosing not to investigate again...
  8. Given that its just outside Bath, there's close to zero chance it isn't full of entitled Representatives for Wellingborough who've "escaped London"
  9. I think you need to polish your humour, it’s getting very Rusty not to mention Strange
  10. Yeah the one I bought at £28 was a 500cl bottle too
  11. That Japanese Whisky I bought the missus for Xmas was on offer at £28, there seem to be a fair amount of booze reductions in Waitrose right now, certainly all the Japanese Whiskies were reduced
  12. Does she have an interest in the modern Thomas Telford's?
  13. I like red wine because I drink it slowly. I don't drink white wine because I'd drink it like a glass of cordial and be blitzed in half an hour
  14. Anyone wanna buy a bridge? (in easy weekly instalments)
  15. Let us take time to remember this utterly bizarre Rachel Johnson piece in The Spectator only 7 weeks ago Not only was it an utterly strange thing to put in print such a short time before a trial where most people knew what the outcome would be but it also makes a connection between the Prime Minister and Maxwell. I don't think it'l have much bearing on anything but that connection will always be there and if the USA come in more forcefully for Prince Andrew at a later date, it may provoke some more interesting and uncomfortable questions.
  16. Switched to wine tonight and I have to say if anyone's looking for a decent cheap red, this is on offer in Waitrose at £6.99 (normally £8.99) First time I've had it tbh but for the pricepoint on a 2015 wine its hard to argue, I'd buy this at full price and feel I was still getting good value Castillo De Olite 2015. Garnacha, Tempranillo and Graciano grapes. 13.5% ABV Full bodied fruity and well rounded from the aging process
  17. VT's favourite meme subject had a massive phobia of sitting directly on toilet seats
  18. FTFY They are more likely to be in trouble themselves than cause trouble these days.; Two reprimands from the ASA only last year
