    [Other Sport] Formula 1 2019

    As he does everytime. He tried to push Hamilton off in the drag race from the start up to the first corner. He consistently steers into cars expecting them to move aside or off the circuit. It didn't happen this time.

    No trains from Yorkshire. This probably doesn't help much.

    [TV] TV advice

    When placing a TV, wall mounted or not, for comfort always have the screen where you look across to it or down on it, never have it so you have to look up to it.

    [News] Crossrail Delay: Line will not open until 2021 as costs increase

    Again you have not explained why it would reduce capacity and instead want to promote more expenditure in the south east instead.

    [Albion] Boat to Old Trafford

    We do normally get the tram. I think the accommodations will be a little less crowded this way and no hanging about in massive queues waiting for trams.
