sidcow Posted June 14, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted June 14, 2022 Only time I've eaten Michelin Star food what when Adams first opened in Brum. He tested the water with a very small restaurant which had a very limited lunchtime menu. There was literally nothing on it I fancied. I was dreading the food, so many of the ingredients didn't appeal to me, but when I ate it it was absolutely amazing. Goes to show these guys really know what they're doing, mixing things together to elevate them way above the sum of their parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Tyson Fury is doing a tour, of not small venues and it's billed as an after party. I have no words, I am speechless, I am without speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted June 25, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted June 25, 2022 Billy Eilish. I tried listening, I really did. I'm not sure any music has ever left me so cold. Probably because I'm just becoming an old fart. I've also never been more disinterested in a Glastonbury line up, probably for the same reason.

I don't mind it, theres a lot of good stuff in the 2nd tier there, pretty much everyone you'd expect As for her yeah I'm in the same boat, don't see it, appreciate that she's different and creative but it's not for me I'd have watched foals on the other stage last night and been very happy about it As I said in the music thread when they came out though I watched wet leg this morning, nope not having them, they're garbage Edited June 25, 2022 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interesting stuff isn’t at the top of the bill in the main Billy Eilish is clearly talented it’s just not for me. But there’s been some great stuff on already, this is by no means the worst Glastonbury lineup. St Vincent, Wet Leg, Dry Cleaning, Phoebe Bridgers, Jesus and Mary Chain all good for me so far. Right now I'm watching Kruangbin a band I'm a bit 50 / 50 on if I'm honest but they seem to be having a good gig There really is something for everyone, if you don’t like something move onto something else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 There are 2 football centres in the vicinity. One is goals at Starcity and the other is power league in Aston. The price of both is near identical I believe. One has good pitches good facilities good parking good nets and is generally better. The other though they have improved in recent times is a bit of a shithole. The shithole is always packed and you get kicked off on the hour and the other one is often dead.

villa4europe Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Adidas tube socks, the ones with the 3 stripes at the top, plain white with black stripes = £15 for a pack of 3 pairs Adidas x Gucci socks, same thing but with the Gucci logo thrown on = £155 for a pair That's not even the most ridiculous thing in the collection either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for me, don’t believe I own anything Adidas related now that I think about it. I don’t buy anything inherently for the logo these days.

Seat68 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I like socks so the kid buys me socks for Christmas, birthday etc. I have pairs of 29 quid for 3 pairs socks. Seasalt, and I hate them. Penguin are my favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
