Indeed. Given that, I felt it prudent to take a half day and navigate my way onto a Shoreham barstool instead via a 700. Whats the worst that could happen ?
I'm going into town today to buy a pair, as it happens. 32" short leg, in case you were wondering. I favour the "worn in" look, but I don't go as extreme as my son, who likes having those ones with big holes in them.
Whats that all about ?
You've just given me an idea for my next batch of home-made scotch eggs I rustle up occasionally. And I just so happen to have a bag of own brand Co-Op bacon rashers in the cupboard, which would do just the trick.
Is it too late to start preparing all that now ? Its too late isn't it. Or is it...
I'm short sighted, but I am also a chronic cheapskate. I don't need glasses for reading at all, just purely distance (for TV/Driving/cinema/Amex mainly).
I am fortunate enough to have quite a pronounced bridge on my nose. So if perusing my phone, Kindle or newspaper whilst watching TV, I shift...
True, I'm big fan of expensively overpriced cheese on toast. Well remembered :)
Aside from the banal cuisine though, I'm very jealous. I'll be watching from a barstool, probably with a dirty burger.
Whatever they are, they're not very nice. "Once you pop, you can't stop" - bollocks. I did, and I can. Quite easily. Very bland.
My current weapon of choice is the grab-bag cheesy Wotsits. Once I open a bag of those suckers, there's no stopping me. I won't even pause to answer the phone if I'm...
Well, like the jurors we all have our views. I found the loss of control aspect troubling. He was strangling her, then he stopped, picked up an industrial hammer, and bashed her head in. Whether he went out to fetch it from his workshop (more likely than it already being in the dining room), or...
The Zone of Interest
The true story of a high-ranking SS officer who lived with his family in a house directly next to Auschwitz, where he worked. The walls of the death camp are literally lining their pleasantly manicured back garden - a wall of concrete separating them from the daily routine...
Oh man.
I didn't know of him outside of Curb, but absolutely loved him in that show. He was the equal of Larry in every scene, a genuinely funny man who played his side-role superbly. Watching the exasperating arguments between them was so richly entertaining and one of the reasons I'm such a...
I'm trying to avoid spoilers for now in case some on here are catching up. But your observation of some of them becoming "entrenched" is spot on, and something I think was quite worrying. There was a sense of belligerence amongst some of them, like they didn't want to climb down from their...
I had a real problem with how the jury room was set up throughout the trial - tables and chairs all over the place like it was some kind of bistro. Which meant little groups and cliques developed, all chatting about the evidence amongst themselves. The whole POINT of a jury is to sit 12 around a...
