So I won't be able to write as eloquently about others with more knowledge on the specifics of the sociological aspects of the rise of popularism or the popularity of Farage but I am empassioned about the impact its having. We live in NW London (near but not in Pinner/Northwood) and my wife is...

Here’s mine last week at Man O War beach in Durdle Door, Dorset. Fantastic cove the other side of the more famous arch side. Sheltered, crystal clear water and stunning back drop.

Ooops wrong thread

I mean it looks like a local yoof to me just being a nob. Aiming for props and recognition amongst his clan of disaffected youth. I still have no idea why but what's clear is he didn't have possession of the family brain cell today that's for sure.

True, not my intention to scaremonger or kill joy just also being realistic about the potential geohazards. I think I read in a paper the actual odds of a cataclysmic eruption there within our lifetime is something like 0.00000014% however what is clear is the magma is pooling and the dome is...

As a species we're so complacent about geological timescales it's hilarious. Ooh this hasn't gone properly bang for xxxx thousands of years so lets build duck board walkways right up to the vent. As others have said Yellowstone scares the bejesus out of me and it's potential impacts are...

Not so Accidental Partridge right there. “Let’s touch base next week” touch cloth more like….

Update on bell cheese number one from my recent post as I thought it perfectly illustrated his character: He was naturally on leave during the crowdstrike issue leaving me to step up and brief his teams/work with them to minimise the impact. We had crisis management calls which he didn’t join...

Not iconic per se but from my formative youth I remember these two with fondness:

Nothing quite so dynamic. Think more slow considered 5 wood off the fairway then scan the horizon for where its gone and you get a better idea of the knobbery of it all.

Shouldn't do. We are a 60/40% home based time split and the issues for us - Global Bank - are not location based as we use virtual environments in office or at home so coming in to the office made no difference today.

I enjoyed this one… well the renaming part.

Went about 12 years ago. Incredible to see how it all worked. The central line extension used to run that far to get certain cabinet ministers there from central London. And yes the signs are still there. Strange to think we're probably having to think about demothballing some of this stuff...

This is subtle and brilliant. Everyone else will know the true meaning they will think it's because they are super productive and great - beetling around etc.

:needpics:

Two nominees from me after a sustained hiatus (hiatus caused due to me not reporting to a total bell cheese for the last 18 months); I report to the CAO who sadly has been signed off work for about 8 months due to stress. Her ad interim replacement is one of those career cock wombles who...

A better proxy for this fear is Mitoma who is way slighter than either YM or TL. Yet he skips past such challenges with ease. I do agree refs could do more to protect flair players but I don’t think we need to overly worry.

Not sure how influential Argentina will be without Messi or Di Maria? Sure they will likely have Barco and Buonanotte if they kick on with us/get sold to a top 6/Euro whore team in the meantime but they're not in the same bracket.

So many superlatives have been said about him which I won't repeat but have never wanted a player in the stripes to be a success more than I did him once we got to the Premier League. His abilities in the Championship are unparalled for me but fell marginally short of being an established...

Yeah I know they've been cancelled but still. Not condoning the behaviour in anyway but they were excellent. Everyone I would have put into my top three already mentioned but want to throw something into the mix so will plump for Rage Against the Machine. Totally influential for the rap/band...
