rubecula

I remember the games we used to have like throwing a penguin and pipes and stuff like that,  I was wondering if it would be feasible to have one game per summer break  to keep a friendly interest in the site when there is no football to talk about,  just one game we can change every season and we can play as often as we like  and we can have a summer champion.  and Mike can not compete to make it fair  lol lol (joke)

Hello and welcome young man I m a denizen of wales myself despite being a real scouser  I live in the north though at the moment.  enjoy the site for what it is and avoid the brexit topic as much as possible is the best advice I can give you  have fun though

Couple returned from holiday in Spain.  Wife was disappointed because all the food was English and everyone spoke English.  She said, 'next time we go on holiday I want to go somewhere where the food is crap and you can't understand what people say'.  Husband has booked a game in Anfield

i have a friend that loves to read but prefers audiobooks.  if it's a well known book they get famous voice actors to do the parts and they do all the parts in different voices so it sounds like different people.  supposed to be very well put together.  i haven't heard one myself, i still enjoy the tactile old paperback

thanks for that info mjb

oddly I can see well enough to read if the book is far enough away and the letters are big enough  lol  but the idea of audiobooks I  good  if I can try it out  I will let you know.

my favourite pastime is reading  or it was when my eyes were ok  sadly after  the cataract surgery I can not do it now.

apparently there is a similar series to  GoT on tv  called Outpost maybe good  but  not sure as  not seen the series yet.

Cats don't take a lot of looking after and you don't have to take them for 'walkies'.  Big commitment taking on a dog and the bigger the dog, the bigger the commitment.  Oh, and cats wash themselves.

John the point is the dog needs us as much as we need the dog  and licking oneself does not mean washing in my vocabulary

Mangey moggies or  daring doggies?...  I go for the canine rather than the feline  every time,  not that the moggies are hateful  just not as good as the doggies

On the verge of losing another friend to cancer, admitted to a hospice with the tumour slowly closing off the wind pipe; steroids temporarily putting off the inevitable horrific traumatic end. 

Nobody would put a dog through that agony, they'd be gently put to sleep. I see no argument whatsoever (religious zealotry aside) against euthanasia; why extend someone's life for a few days/weeks so they can suffer for a while and then die in agony? Completely insane.

I know how you feel Mike    you take care buddy and try to ensure your friend has a happy ending as best you can-

Not sure but I think we are all in agreement here,  change the title of the thread tp  elections  as it is not a general election thread now  

lol

Replacement will be worse though, likely BoJo, who is really as embarrassing as Trump is. Difference is only that Johnson is undoubtedly a man of intellect even though he comes across as a buffoon, whereas Trump is a thick twat whose buffoonery just confirms the fact.

https://www.newyorker.com/news/our-columnists/donald-trumps-business-failures-were-very-real

"...between 1985 and 1989, a period when the economy was forging ahead and Trump was busy portraying himself as a billionaire with the Midas touch, his core businesses—apartment buildings, hotels, and casinos—somehow managed to lose $359.1 million. That was only the beginning. As the economy weakened, in 1990 and 1991, Trump’s core businesses racked up losses of $517.5 million. And, between 1992 and 1994, as the economy recovered, they lost another $286.9 million."

I am pleased  that Trump is involving himself now  as it means that boris is going to face a lot lore ridicule so is less likely to win.

Not sure about him given his injury record but he's better than what we have.  DCL is a better footballer but he just can't score goals.

to be good and fair though john, Welbeck is never going to get better than he can do now, DCL is only going to continue improving all the tie, for now at least..

thank od she is going though?

Totally fair comment from Marco. Don't think we'll ever be loved by the top 6 media.

I agree we are the self styled "peoples" club and anyone who is of the people  for the people etc etc  will always suffer the tribulations of the media

Man City, Liverpool, Man U. 

City as they won't be as free flowing first game of the season. Liverpool as they largely rely on fitness so wouldn't be at full speed, and Man Utd as they're plop and will still be trying to find a system. 

 

perfect idea
