The Antisocial Network On Netflix

Very interesting documentary on the growth of internet disinformation from the birth of 4Chan through Anonymous through QAnon and Storming the Capitol

Surely the Guinness in Uganda and also in Ghana comes from the Breweries in Ghana (where all of Africa’s Guinness is made) ;) Mates Dad was head of Quality Control at James Gate (worked his was up from Bottle washer) - O Connors was his opinion. But you’re right about the lines - shorter the lines t...

Gus O’Connors pub in Doolin in Clare serves the best pint of Guinness in the world.

And that’s a confirmed fact

I mostly enjoy Guiness and as the pub three doors down from me won the best Guiness award by the brewery, I typically just wander into there when thirsty. Don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t say it, don’...

I've also done 3 weeks driving around Queensland and New South Wales before we had kids - booked nothing, just rolled into town and found places to stay etc. I'm 100% with you on the roundtrips. If I make to 65, we're going to take the tax free lump sum of my pension, buy a motorhome in America, ren...

Anyone heard from him at all ? As he was a Cancer survivor, I do wonder if he's still with us...

We were somewhat constrained by the nipper in that we couldn't do any stint of more than 2 or 3 hours without a break as it's not good for small children to be in a car seat for that long. But we settled into a rhythm with it. Leave after breakfast - Drive for 3 hours. Stop for lunch for a few hours...

I drove 2500 miles through France and Northern Italy over 3 week with a 9 month old in the back in a Vauxhall Zafira.

one of the best holidays ever - I can't explain it either

Korean, subtitles. Simple love story. But not.

Some beautifully awkward scenes, dripping in warmth and stifled emotion.

Thoroughly enjoyed it. 8.5 12-year gaps out of 10 for me.

I saw a trailer for that and it looked good - will check it out

A big Citroen is always my first thought when someone wants a mile muncher..

But I can see his point I drove a Passat Estate in black for a year and that was a Hearse

A large Volvo would therefore be my second choice in terms of comfort - S80 maybe or even an S90 if his budget stretches ??

Obvious Choice...

I was on a teams call a while back and one of the participants went "Sorry, my hoover's texting me - the dining room door's closed and it can't get to the kitchen".

Just about the most 2024 thing I've heard...

I've just submitted another round of BP numbers as part of my ongoing treatment. While not the perfect (High reading 128/89, Low 120/80, average 124/83), I'm not going to change dosage of Ramapril for now and just keep loosing weight, cutting way back on the beers and the processes meat (I do love a...
