  1. Usually the highlight of the summer for me. But with Cav not being selected by Quickstep, I have lost a lot of interest. I was hopeful he might get the record breaking 35th win.

    The dominance of Pogacar, although impressive, is a negative in my view. At best most GC contenders will only be ridding for a podium place.

    Barring a mishap I can't see anyone getting the better of him.

    I will still be watching though, because you never know! ?

    Any idea if there will be a Sunday morning repeat like Quest did? That`s the one I used to watch TBH.

    As it's on ITV it will probably be available on the ITV hub

    I realise im in the minority but thought the whole thing was totally underwhelming, the acts and performances im talking about.

    If that's all they can attract to play after a 3 year absence god help us next year

    Totally agree with you. Apart from Jack White I thought it was all a bit meh.

    How about this exterior of a pub in OZ.

     

    See the source image

    Surprised you didn't mention the Guildford Hotel in Swan Valley.

    Amazing refurbishment retaining some of the chared remains from the fire that destroyed it. Certainly worth a visit for anyone visiting Perth.??

  5. I was 3 when my parents first took me. They used to stand at the front, by the railings in the old East End.

    At that time I used to take a tennis ball and other toys to play with in the walkway behind them because I didn't watch the game very much and would get bored.

    That was 70 years ago.

    I think the different timings must have had something to do with the Killers' finish time. ?

    Originally, Manics were on at 7.30pm with the Killers on stage from 8.45pm, ending at 10.25pm. Assuming Manics would be playing 45 minutes, that would have left a 30 minute turn around between sets. Manics finished at 7.50pm, Killers stuck to the 8.45pm scheduled start though; if Manics had started at the publicised time of 7.30pm, Killers wouldn't have come in till 9.15pm and then finished at 10.55pm. That would have played havoc with people's buses, trains, curfews (?).....

    Sorry there's a lot of times in that last par. 

    Ah, thanks. Didn't know that the Killers weren't scheduled until 8.45.

    Probably needed a big gap so their crew could do all the vacuuming ?

    What was that all about? ?

    I missed part of the Manic’s due to coming on early but did they play Motorcycle Emptyness? 
    I got to admit they played a great She sell’s Sanctuary. 

    Them starting at 7 took me by surprise.

    There were several sound checks going on from around 6.30, and I wasn't really paying much attention to the stage when the utterly brilliant Motorcycle Emptiness began.

    The knock on effect meant that there was an overly long wait after they finished to the Killers starting.

    The game is there to be won if we're braver in midfield. We've made some good turnovers and need to get the ball to Weimann, to drive forward. Semenyo had our best chances, blazing over when one on one, and failing to control from the rebound after Martin shot. 

    It might help if we didn't give it away so cheaply around the edge of their penalty area when we are trying to attack.

    Okay thanks. 

    It's just that I sent him a message on Monday and it's not been read yet.  Maybe he's on holiday......
