I loved that. Great game, the Norwegians were brilliant. Their keeper was something else, and Haaland is a special player.

How many more unnecessary mins?

That's ridiculous. Game should be over.

Game. Set. Fucking lovely.

What a shit pen.

I don't like Haddock, Cod has a milder flavour. I've never seen a chippy with Coley, Pollock or other white fish, but wouldn't be against that. It's the £4 for a regular chips that's more offensive than the fish prices for me.

Good man. I hope you went heavy on the paper and got vfm.

I'm with you. We popped out last night, just us 2. Diego's, basically an indy version of Nandos in Bedford Place. 2 mains, nothing fancy, 1 side order of prawns (from the starters), 1 bottle of water for me, couple of ciders for my wife. No starters, desserts or nibbles on the table. With service, £90. In fairness, it was good for what it was, service and atmosphere were great, but for a single course meal, only 1 person having a couple of cheap drinks, almost a ton spent. Pleasingly they were busy in there, but many places weren't. Not long ago we'd have got a really good meal for that.

I'm an unashamed tight sod and take snacks and a drink with me. I'm not paying cinema prices. The cinema ticket is usually a freebie from the bank as well.

I find Indian is the best value. A tandoori chicken shashlik, with salad, yoghurt sauce, and fresh naan or rice is cheaper than fish and chips. Just nuts. Coffee is crazy. We had 2 iced latte's at an independent in Stockbridge yesterday. They cost me £10.80. No syrup or any of that, just coffee/cold milk/ice in a cup. For contrast, we were paying less than €6.00 for the same in Belgium last month, and Belgium isn't cheap.

That's cheap. That's £35 round here, and the Millbrook Chippy... Millbrook...will charge £35.50 for that order BEFORE you get to the kids fish and chips. Mental money for spuds and a bit of fish.

I don't think anyone has made that point. What's been said is that economic input has suggested that our GDP has dropped 6% re Brexit. I'm no better or worse placed than you to challenge that with any credibility, but it feels a bit odd that your best argument for debunking that is to make some kind of link to Germany's performance.

Are you saying that Brexit has or hasn't reduced our GDP?

Or anywhere. Properly annoying at a gig.

Agreed. On any assessment, we have minimal negotiating power alone in comparison to the EU. From the outset, we were weaker.
