  1. "A less-than-subtle challenge" by Borrowdale!
  2. Thanks for that!
  3. Here are some that I've read two or more times each that I would highly recommend. War and Peace - Leo Tolstoy Middlemarch - George Eliot Howards End - E.M. Forster Brideshead Revisited - Evelyn Waugh Changing Places - David Lodge The Magus - John Fowles Crime and Punishment - F. Dostoevsky The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald Animal Farm - George Orwell Steppenwolf - Herman Hesse Catch 22 - Joseph Heller The Trial - Franz Kafka Great Expectations - Charles Dickens Zorba The Greek - Nikos Kazantzakis Heart of Darkness - Joseph Conrad
  4. A Tribute to Jack Johnson - Miles Davis (recorded April, 1970)
  5. How about remembering live footy on the telly without the facility to show replays and without a permanent display in the corner of the screen showing how much time has expired and what the score is?
  6. Just make sure they can spell!
  7. Don't put words in my mouth, or misrepresent my view - I didn't say discrimination against another national group was OK. I wasn't condoning prejudice and bigotry. I was merely criticising the incorrect use of the term "racism".
  8. Think about it. Racism has to be antagonism or discrimination against another race. If a caucasian Englishman discriminates against a caucasian American, that is not racism - regardless of what the RRA says.
  9. Sorry to nit-pick, but being anti-American is not being "racist"; there's no such race as "American". Anti-Americanism is a form of bigotry not based on race.
  10. 1. Green 2. Lib Dem 3. Labour 4. Conservative No surprises there.
  11. I do believe that AP has made it clear this season that his philosophy is to field the best team he can for every game, regardless of whether it's a cup game or league game. Based on the idea that it's better to keep the momentum going - to build that "winning mentality", than to damage it by slacking off for a cup game.
  12. You can get the Cracovia Krakow vs Jagiellonia Bialystok game, or the GKS Belchatow vs Odra Wodzislaw Slaski game, but you can't find Brighton vs. Saints. Go figure!
  13. ... I've watched Saints play a cup final via the internet. Watched the Cardiff FA Cup Final on TV. Listened to the '76 Cup Final on the radio.
  14. Thanks for sharing your pics. :smt038
  15. Awesome! Surely this vindicates Pardew's commitment to winning all games - cup ties as well as league games, I mean.
  16. Thanks for the link. It was very jumpy and irritating to watch - but better than nothing, of course! :smt038
  17. I did it three times; I got 28, 31 and 20. I'm 57.
  18. Read Night by Elie Wiesel. He was taken to Auschwitz as a young boy with his family. He was the only one to survive.
  19. Here you go - both sides of possibly the best pop single (45 rpm) ever released: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7NoOhmVMac
  20. They're down, and I hope West Ham go with them.
