Richard Jewell 8.5/10.

Clint Eastwood directed film about the Security Guard at the Atlanta Olympics who discovered the bomb in Centennial Park and then went on to become the FBI's prime suspect.

Surprised how much I enjoyed this. Performance and story driven and superbly shot.

It clearly means more to him.

My hero when I was a boy as he was born in my home town od Saltcoats in Ayrshire. He was the only one of the Lisbon Lions who was not born within 30 Miles of Parkhead ( it's 37 miles). He finally got a statue in his home town last year.

Still has his bar "Bobbys Bar" in the town.

What a great report Dave, especially given the fact that you must have had to edit it substantially to remove the fuckin fuckity, fuckin fuck fucker, fuckin bastardy, wankstain, dirty smelly cunty chops , bawbag , fuck pig , sheep shagging, whorebag, farmyard animal molesting, cunting arsehole that prefixed every mention of Coote.

I still only know one person who had it, my sister who is a nurse in the Royal.

 

We have 50 offices worldwide and we've had only one possible case. The whole thing is absolutely mental. I can't help thinking the some number fudging going on somewhere.

Two of my team have had it. One was during lockdown and had relatively mild symptoms which lasted a week.

The other one has what everyone is now referring to as "long covid" which he caught just before the lockdown. He is 50, an ex boxer who was previously strong as an ox and supremely fit. He finds it difficult to breathe, has very little energy and suffers from severe headaches. He is waiting for a full testing regime to see what other damage  (if any) it has done to him.

Hey mate.  Think I have broke my hand. I was involved in a horrific multi vehicle pile up today. 

Shit mate that's not good. Hope it's not as bad as a break.

I’ve been to Lincoln. It’s very nice. 

It was until you got there.

"Individuals tested positive more than once are only counted once" what what?! 

My take would be that those who have tested positive but are asymptomatic have retested and have had it confirmed.

We've only just moved in, it looks dry to me. The wardrobe was very old so I'm guessing the vent was covered & that insulation was put in there in the 60s or 70s (the house was built in '62).

 

The good news is we've had a go at the mould today & it's gone, I think it was all pretty superficial.

Thats great new mate.

This is the vent from the inside, I'm scared.

 

 

That looks like cavity fill insulation? Did you ever get the cavity filled? Is it wet?

Is white vinegar just clear vinegar?

Yes mate.

We've removed a built-in wardrobe from a bedroom & there's a load of fucking mould on the wall.

 

Anybody any experience of this, I'm guessing it's going to bankrupt me to get it fixed?

Did the wardrobe back onto an external wall Mook?

If so does it have a vent brick on the external brickwork/render of the wall where the wardrobe was? If it does it is possibly interstitial condensation which may stop now you have removed the wardrobe.

First thing to do would be to wash it with a 1:1 solution of white vinegar and water (WEAR A MASK DO NOT TRY IT WITHOUT ONE). If the room can be ventilated leave it to dry thoroughly. 

Once dry if possible remove a small section say 4" x 4" of the plaster to see if it has permeated the structure behind.

If it has give me a shout and I will talk you through the options.

So sorry to hear of your loss Stig.

I lost my Mum many years ago when I was 17. I have no idea if this will help mate but when my mum passed I got what was my favourite picture of her and stuck it in my pocket. Whenever there was a time when I thought of something I wanted to say to her I took out the photograph and said it to that. It is not that I am religious, I am not. It simply helped me cope.  I truly hope you find your way, I have a feeling you will.

As good as it gets. 9.5/10.

You'd marry her in a heartbeat wouldn't you? I told my bird exactly that and she said she would as well.

What your bird said she would marry you as well. Congratulations mate...

She's had me watching something on IPlayer the last few nights. The Secrets She Keeps. Australian drama about an obsessed woman who befriends a pregnant woman then steels her baby. Its actually pretty good.

 

Plus it has Jessica De Gout in it and she is almost the perfect woman. 7.5/10. Still got an episode to go. 

 

 

 

She did the same with me. Surprised how much I enjoyed it.

He is a product of Mourinho and Terry, therefore is a spiteful hateful individual and should be roundly ignored.

Yes and don't forget, if your produce gets dirty, they have a fantastic laundry you can use.

Has Ozil run away?

He went missing in 2016 and hasn't been seen since.

I remember it well Stig. Was working onshore for BP exploration at the time at 25 years of age .

I saw grown men twice my age ( some huge hardy construction types) visibly upset. I remember a lot of them were very very angry and saying something like this was inevitable.
