    [Finance] Have you started Christmas shopping yet?

    I've 'started' in the sense that I buy Xmas prezzies for Mrs Peteinblack as and when I see things that I know she wants or think she will like. I do this throughout the year, rather than for a few days in December. I then hide them away (she does the same for me) until Christmas - although...

    [Other Sport] Back to the gym?

    I went back last week, and am aiming to go 2-3 times a week from now on. Luckily, not put on any weight in lockdown - ate carefully, and used a neighbour's cross-trainer in the back garden during fine weather, and went on one-hour around in local parks or along the nearby River Avon a couple of...

    [Misc] Nick Cave Compares Cancel Culture To 'Bad Religion'

    Tories cite 'cancel culture' to condemn universities which deny free speech, but can you imagine the Daily Mail apoplexy if a University invited someone as odious as Gerry Adams to give a talk on "Why murdering thousands of innocent people and British soldiers was OK to achieve the IRA's goal of...

    [Albion] Albion player's who never reached potential

    Posted simultaneously! Yes, a truly appalling attitude (a wannabe Gangster) and waste of talent; became a journeyman who fell out with the managers of every team he played for. Ended his footballing career as player-manager of North West Counties League First Division side Barnton. His...

    The Bridge BBC4

    If you enjoyed The Bridge, you'll enjoy the Anglo-French crime drama 'The Tunnel' - it was unashamedly based on 'The Bridge'. The Bridge, Spiral, The Killing, and Before We Die, are 4 of the best crime-dramas ever, I reckon.

    [News] The Coronavirus Good News thread

    Mrs Peteinblack is from Pembroke - the town itself has a castle, but is devoid of any other interest or reason to visit; virtually half of the shops on the main street have closed-down - long before COVID. However, nearby, the lily-ponds at Bosherston, St. Govan's (the old 'chapel' half-way...

    [Albion] The future’s bright, the future’s Potter

    From the BBC's match report :) "Brighton took a gamble last summer when they dispensed with safe pair of hands Chris Hughton and appointed Swansea's Graham Potter - but it has undoubtedly paid off. Potter has introduced a more attractive and fluid style of play and has increased the Seagulls'...

    [Misc] Butterfly?

    Yeah, the ******s (or, rather, their caterpillars) destroyed the Brussel Sprouts I tried to grow last year. I won't bother again.
