Don’t fancy sharing a sauna with 50k people

Jesus can you imagine the smell…

I really don't think Farage has the credibility to be considered the "defacto leader of the opposition". I don't see they've made enough ground since 2024 to turn 8 seats into the 117 that the conservatives have. And performance in local elections isn't a benchmark for GE performance IMO.

They may ...

I'm a sucker for paper thin US cop shows and this is one paper thin US cop show. I think the format will wear eventually. Cops stare at an evidence wall with no idea who the killer. Morgan spots a flower, in a TV programme, on a magazine cover, on a table... That's been MOVED... :o ...

(Seriously though, former chronic suffer. I thank God each summer I'm nowhere near as bad as I was...

I’ve put up Gazebos and Awnings to shade the back of the house to keep the kitchen and dining room cooler.

Other than that. Fans - lots of fans

Someone (may have been Jobbo) summarised the improvements we’ve seen under this Labour Government.

It may not seem like things are improving but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t

Labour's policies may be different but they're no different than the Tory's in their Political Behaviour

Well you could ban "Happy Meals" and toys in meals for one...

Ah now Gavin, that's unfair - Packets of butter are now smaller...

Every little helps...

Send Help - Sam Raimi-directed movie about two coworkers (one douchebag boss-bro and an overlooked-for-promotion woman) who are stuck on a deserted island is also utterly excellent and now on streaming.


Yeah, I enjoyed this yesterday evening. Surprisingly grim and gory in places (I didn't know ...

That stuff brings in 20% tax so I guess the Government aren’t as interested in banning that stuff from kids Under 16

That sums it up perfectly Zed…

You know that’s not why we’re not seeing as many George’s Crosses

On top of that, the scale of the moderation problem with user-generated is beyond enormous, wIth something like 10 billlion videos uploaded to TikTok alone each year, it's off the charts. It incomparable to moderating any other form of media.

I must admit, I don't really liker he as a person but you can't say she doesn't know what's she's talking about. Far more knowledgeable and insightful than some of the gormless idiot pundits that are on this world cup ( Cough..Giroud...cougn...)
