  1. You are coming across as being about 5 years old. If WSS wants to use a childish pseudonym for you let him, it really doesn't matter.

    Go and count up all the promises Boris has broken in the last 2 years. ( I will give you some help; when you run out of fingers, take off your socks and see if you also run out of toes ).

    Coronavirus

    Bloody strong virus if it can snap a bike chain and bend 4 teeth on a chain ring by 45 degrees. Plus I have not seen that the symptoms include a shoulder bruise that looks like a map of Africa, and is pretty near the same size.
  4. That photo looks like it was taken in a scrap yard, an appropriate location for such rubbish.
  5. If rejoining on the same terms we had when we left was an option it might probably gain traction. But you know full well that that will never be on offer.

    Don't get too cocky. I had a bad crash on my bike last week and suffered unconciousness and memory loss, which might explain my above comment.
  7. Whilst "testing" their eyesight. EDIT: just seen the item on the news.
  8. And the gullible believed the lie because it suited their agenda.
  9. So, what else would you expect ? Politicians as a group are untrustworthy dissemblers, and Boris stands head and shoulders above his colleagues as somebody who will say anything to suit his immediate audience without actually meaning a single syllable.
  10. I know it doesn't alter the story line, but in the new Dune film why is Dr Liet Kynes, most definately male in the book, played by a woman ? It's the sort of non-canonical detail that really annoys autistic pedants like me, in the same way that Peter Jackson's bringing the elves to Helm's Deep in The Two Towers did.
  11. It is if you are Antrim Warrior.
  12. Warrior, whilst I agree with the sentiment behind your banging of the drum, "I told you so" won't reverse the referendum result, schadenfreude isn't as much fun when you are stuck in the consequences of somebody else's actions, and Covid gives the Leavers an effective smokescreen and something else to blame.

    Coronavirus

    I originally saw the story on the BBC, but checked it online and saw that the Guardian and other sources including the NYT, and even Rolling Stone were running with it, so assumed it had been verified. When Red Army posted his response I saw that the whole thing seemed to have feet of clay. I expect to be fallible myself on occasion when passing on "news" stories, I don't expect a whole raft of 'serious' outlets to be so easily taken in en masse. I'm worried that Scally may be right.😟😷
  14. Any League 2 side should bloody well beat Andorra at home.
  15. 4-0 at home to a team from a country with a population barely more than Old Trafford's crowd capacity is an underwhelming result.
  16. What was the "Covid related issue within the Hampshire squad" ?

    Therefore : "Strange how the New York Times is so easily taken in.". Whilst I appreciate how dodgy news and conspiracies can spread quickly through social media, you would expect a degree of professionalism from what Scally would call the MSM - they all seemed to be happy to put this story up, apparently without verification.
  18. The usual strong first innings today.

    Strange how the New York Times is so easily taken in.
  20. I like Arrival as well, so he does seem to have a knack with the genre. There is also Foundation, based on Isaac Asimov's books, coming up on Apple TV, though I hope to find a way to get to see it.

    Coronavirus

    Hospitals in Oklahoma saying that their emergency treatment rooms are so full of Covid patients and people overdosing on Ivermectin, an animal wormer that some think will cure Covid, that gunshot victims can't get in.

    It could contain a permanent flourescent green dye.

    Coronavirus

    If it is a peaceful protest then OK, trying to storm an office block and injuring the Police, no. I can to a certain extent understand the XR position, in highlighting a situation of concern and asking for more immediate action, but what are these anti-vaxxers protesting about ? Nobody is strapping them to a gurney and forcibly innocculating them. Anybody known to have particated in this latest event should have a marker set on their medical records, and then if they present at hospital with Covid, should be denied treatment until they agree to the jab as part of their treatment. ( I wonder if that bang on the head has turned me into a reactionary old fart ).

    If you are "anti-vax" that is your choice, but it isn't an excuse for public protest/disorder.
