    Russia

    Just watched a video of a Russian POW being interviewed. He claims he was captured by French mercenaries - he knew they were French because they were speaking English (!). When asked if he had been carrying a gun he said yes, when asked why he said "for self defence". When asked why he had to act in self defence he told the interviewer " because the Ukrainians were firing at me". ( To use a common quote from a Ukrainian source "We are lucky they are so fucking stupid ". )
  2. Wholesale price of unleaded is a few pence over £1, diesel at just over £1.20. Should we not be supporting Ukraine ? ( Stupid question really, we all know your position ).
  3. £1.67 at Morrisons in Cleveleys, but not much use to most on here.
  4. Surprised it didn't leave him dead.

    They'll just erect a screen round the site and pour concrete over it. Just like the theatre in Mariupol.
  6. Of course it won't be a SUPER busy window, but it might be a mediocre busy one.

    One official Russian spokesman said they successfully intercepted the missiles !

    Russia

    Possibly over 700 Russian conscripts killed when the school building they were billeted in was struck by Ukrainian HIMARS rockets. Didn't help that the same building held a large ammunition store and vehicle park.
  9. In Alexander McCall Smith's books, women in Botswana are not overweight, they are "traditionally built".
  10. "Obviously nobody wants to be involved in a relegation fight"........and Leeds are 2 points above the relegation places.
  11. I think I have been moved to a parallel universe. However, in effect a person born female ( with a fully functioning gender specific reproductive system ), has carried to term a baby, born from an egg fertilised by sperm from a person born male, ( similarly with the gender specific reproductive organs ).
  12. Thing is with our attack, if Forest score 1 they probably won't lose.

    They could try harder to be convincing about Vlad meeting his people.. The first image is from Putler's New Year message......

  15. That one was shot down shortly after it first came out. There was nothing we did in the vaccine development and roll-out that we could not have done if still in the EU.
  16. Broken clock ? Or you throw enough shit out there and sooner or later you'll chance upon something with a grain of truth, purely by random chance. And reading your quoted text, that performance is based on companies making money outside the UK, and those benefitting directly or indirectly from Russia's invasion of Ukraine - energy and defence.
  17. As opposed to LGBTQ+ ones ?
  18. Who wou;d have settled at the start of the season to be going into match 17 just 2 points behind West Ham ?
  19. Anybody answering is not allowed to mention passports or crowns on beer glasses.

    Add in the daylight raids of the USAAF, and we still failed to force them to quit in 3 years of pretty much constant attacks. Civilian populations have proved to be amazingly resilient under such stress.
  21. We've gone more old school and are watching "Witness For The Prosecution".
  22. Seeing as "E-Sports" is now being pushed by the International Olympic Committee perhaps in future you will be able to get into Oxford by being good at FIFA.

    Russia

    There seems to be more of this sort of story becoming public, and it isn't just Wagner - there are a few more PMCs getting involved, and complaining about the regular army, including one supposedly run by Sergei Shoigu the Defence Minister. As for the tanks replacing artillery, a knock on effect is that they are reported to be wearing out the barrels of the tank guns, as they are not designed for prolonged rapid firing.

    Pele

    A few World Cups ago, the school my wife taught in did a project on the WC. Jimmy Armfield came to the school sports day to show everybody his winners medal from 1966, and my wife had her class write to Pele to ask him about his memories of winning. I am not sure if he had any idea where Fleetwood is, but he became a pen pal to a bunch of 7 year old kids in a NorthWest Lancashire fishing town. From his writing he came across as a genuinely nice man.
