  1. Video every day. Mrs Hicks has got 100s of little 5 minute clips of the kids as toddlers and they’re now some of our most cherished possessions.
  2. I think they were stunned by how shit the team was. Echoes of the Wimbledon cup final.
  3. The whole team looked shattered from the kick off. That must have been Salah’s worst ever final, Mac looked injured, Jota and Nunez both awful. Just horrific all round. Chiesa looking better the only consolation. Best forgetten about. Thankfully there’s no game for 16 days.
  4. That woman steward in the corner filming every Newcastle corner is really getting on my nerves
  5. There’s an interesting theory in maths that buses almost inevitably bunch together in 3s because the 1st bus takes longer to load as there are lots of people at the bus stop. Bus number 2 and 3 speed up and reduce the gap to bus 1 because they take less time to load (as all the passengers are on bus 1) then the bus stops fill up again and the sequence starts again.
  6. But the war is likely to end or at least enter a ceasefire this month. If the 2 were intrinsically linked (welfare cuts and the war) then why not delay the welfare bill for a year until the situation is clearer. I said in the Ukraine thread that Governments often use the excuse of foreign wars to push through unpopular policies and this is a great example.
  7. I think the defence thought the case was so weak the jury wouldn’t convict. Remember it took years to come to trial.
  8. But the war didn’t start last week did it ? The welfare cuts go much further than anything proposed in 14 years of the conservative government. This wasn’t just dreamed up in the last few months.
  9. The cuts to foreign aid, winter fuel allowances and now welfare were all never mentioned in the manifesto.
  10. The Police are now conducting a wider investigation into corporate manslaughter by gross negligence. They know Letby was made the scapegoat for systematic failings at the unit. Lucy Letby: Manslaughter probe at Countess of Chester Hospital widened - BBC News
  11. Do be fair he does have a point about remotes. I have to get my 13 year old to sort the telly
  12. The ponds on my allotment are full of frogspawn, never seen so much. There was barely any yesterday. The filthy little fuckers have obviously held a massive amphibian orgy overnight.
