  1. Wild Planet is where you'll find it on the B52s second album. Bought it the day it was released. Still love it to this day. Their 3rd album Mesopotamia was the total opposite. It might have improved!
  2. If only this song was better known.... Private Idaho
  3. Wait till they start moaning that it's not on Robins TV today.
  4. Thanks MarcusX. I've reread it. You're right. There's a difference between an unvaccinated contact and someone who has had covid but is unvaccinated!
  5. Has to be 70s. Check out the turnstile entrance to the East End. To the right should be the St John's Ambulance and Police cabins. They were there in the early 80s. However, I'm more concerned with the UFO on the picture!
  6. I recognised the main stand. Wasn't it a reserve game at the Mem?
  7. Having been tested positive myself for Covid the day after the Preston game, I find this Curtis quote strange. I have just checked and Northern Ireland rules are the same as England's. Even if he takes a Lateral Flow Test on Saturday night and he's positive, then that is Day Zero. The earliest he can be out of isolation is Day 6 assuming that this day (Friday) and Day 5 (Thursday) produce negative LFTs. This is assuming he had vaccinations. If he didn't, then he has to go 10 days isolation as per the rules. So Nahki must have done a test before playing and was negative but does a test afterwards and is positive? Our medical team obviously have protocols they must adhere by but Nahki can't train etc until Tuesday 15th at the earliest.....unless he has been vaccinated all the time.
  8. Over past few years most broadcasters have dumbed down their bit rates and it's becoming, as you say, more noticeable. The standard definition I used to get from BT Sport on our projected large screen was more than watchable. Switch to any standard definition music channel, for instance, Now 70/80/90s and it is woeful. Kerrang isn't too bad in standard def!
  9. Could be that +1 channels aren't normally in HD. There's obviously a difference between HD and SD.
  10. BREAKING NEWS... PINTER2 HAS JUST BEEN REDUCED BY £20. If anyone is interested, please PM me and you can get a further £20 off with an introductory code from me. We both gain from this!
  11. Ex Man Utd manager is now a lawyer?
  12. Didn't John co-commentate for either BBC Bristol or HTV at the Wembley final against Bolton? I remember him saying, "It's there, it's there" when we scored.
  13. Apparently, the Pinter guys eventually turned down the Dragon's offer. However, here's the latest behind the scenes news. https://www.thegrocer.co.uk/movers/former-camden-boss-keary-is-made-md-at-home-brewer-pinter/664183.article The concept of freshly made croissants? https://tarlabakes.com/ From the new Pinter MD!
  14. Depends. I'm sure people in the past have said," I've betted on a couple of crackers at Uttoxeter today." They are horses after all. I think your legal team would approve that you were referring to the gee gees!
  15. I arranged my stag do around City playing at Bloomfield Rd. The game was awful. The pubs that evening were worse. The open air gents toilet behind the away end was a smaller version of the one outside the Main Stand at Ashton Gate. Memories!
  16. Soda Bread (farls) grilled and then served with Apricot Jam is also a particular favourite of mine!
  17. Brilliant. Slice and grill and then fill with fried egg and bacon and sausage! If you can make Wheaten Bread, you'll be able to play football for Northern Ireland or Ireland!
  18. Using your current car as a deposit should give you far more than you expected. If you can negotiate a deal and then be patient like us, you're in for a great deal.
  19. And there is talk of making another series!
  20. Also.... If you're ordering a car and get a price guarantee that's one thing. However, if like us you'll have to wait 9 months, please bear in mind that even though the guaranteed price might be under £40,000, it's when the car is registered that is important. If in 9 months time, our car would now cost £40,001 then our car tax is £450 for the next few years! It doesn't matter that our guaranteed price was £39,995 or whatever was agreed. It's the price of the car when it is registered that matters. Not fair especially as many car prices will go up between now and over 6 months time. Will the Government increase the 40k threshold? They should! If you can buy a brand new one on the forecourt, go for it!
