Please make sure they are super-absorbent :lolol::bigwave::bigwave:

I've said before, I'm sadly resigned to us not signing the urgently-needed striker this transfer window; as in so many previous summers, having failed to sign the striker we all agree is urgently needed, we'll start the season making do with what we've got and urging other players to 'step up'...

0-2 (to Chelsea).

Villa and Sheffield United also after him, apparently :(

Me and Mrs Peteinblack were literally in tears (of laughter) when we watched this when it was originally broadcast - comedy gold.

Opened earlier this week :thumbsup::drink:

On annual visit to Brighton. Will visit the Basketmakers tonight to share a glass of wine or three with Mrs Peteinblack.

Seems like “same old, same old” to me - every summer, we agree that we urgently need a decent goal scorer, and yet by the close of the transfer window, we haven’t signed one. We then say we’ll make do with our current squad until we can sign a striker in January, and in the meantime, ask other...

On the train down to Brighton for our annual week’s visit. Only holiday this year.

At first, I loved WFH (as well as saving a small fortune on train tickets) and avoiding the commute an hour each-way each day. Now, I'm bored with it. I actually miss seeing, chatting and going for coffee with colleagues - the camaraderie and banter - and have increasingly got fed-up of only...

I'm right under that :(

This ^ I always maintained that even though Corbyn was an incompetent and unappealing leader, many of his policies would be considered mainstream centre-Left in much of Europe - some nationalisation, slightly higher tax on the rich, and a couple of workers on the boards of companies to have a...

I seem to recall David Cameron saying that: "Too many Tweets make a ****". Can't be bothered with all the Drama Llamas on Twitter, and self-important narcissists avidly 'following' each other; hanging on to every word Tweeted by someone who's famous-for-being-famous, or only acquired fame...

The whole episode is part of the Right's 'culture war' - create an outrage or imaginary threat (Last Night of the Proms under attack, BLM a Marxist front, Christmas being banned to avoid offending the effnix, 'Ba Ba Black Sheep' banned for being racist, etc), and then use it to attack 'leftists'...

Ah, makes me nostalgic for Le Phonographique (Indie) nightclub in Leeds in the 1980s

The weather forecast for this week would suggest it is :)

Perhaps the declining death rate is precisely because of the lock-down and social distancing measures? Unless, of course, this is all some kind of conspiracy: COVID a 'deep state' hoax perpetrated by Bill and Melinda Gates so they can fund a vaccine which is really about numbing people's...

You were lucky it was only a summer :lolol: I had 18 summers, autumns, winters and springs growing up there. It was an absolute dump with nothing for young people to do and nowhere to go. Even its cinema (The Luxor) was turned into a bingo hall for the grannies - who then moaned about bored...
