    [Misc] Builders and appointments

    I've needed some fence work done, as well as some minor building work, and I've contacted 4 builders in my area to arrange viewings for quotes, and only one of them has had the decency to turn up (albeit an hour late). The others haven't even bothered to offer an apology as to why they didn't...

    [Albion] How’s your Albion Mojo

    Mojo is very much down at the moment, and I'm in the same camp as Barhams Tash - it's affecting my mood too. I loved Chris for all he did for our club, but I was incredibly disheartened about the football we were (and still are) playing. I can't see how a new manager will make much of a change...

    [Misc] When is next Sunday?

    Sorry Bozza, but the next Sunday IS 5th May. You really should have used "Sunday week" or "the following Sunday".

    [Misc] When is next Sunday?

    The use of "biweekly" befogs the statement - so the use of "fortnightly" or "twice weekly" here allows you to avoid that. Again use words which are clear in their meaning.

    [Misc] When is next Sunday?

    Again another easy one - that's a meeting which takes place 2 times a week. If you want a meeting which takes place every other week, then you use the statement "a fortnightly meeting".

    [Misc] When is next Sunday?

    There is no argument here whatsoever. If someone says "meet you next Sunday", and the other person doesn't understand, then you will have to clarify by saying; "this Sunday coming" or " the Sunday after". The use of "next" in the above statement is wrong. To avoid any obfuscation, the...

    [Drinking] The one and only,world famous,Fridat night drinking thread!

    Sorry for the poor showing, but 2x Carlsberg down (I've been pushing for a decent 4% pint in my boozer for yonks and they won't do it) and I'm now on the Amstel. Today has been utter **** at work.

    [Football] Team For Wolves

    It's clear that the 4-3-3(4-5-1) isn't working anymore, so needs to drop to a standard 4-4-2. Murray is still winning headers as he usually does but we don't have anyone playing off him to pick those up. So with that in mind.... Button (Ryan hasn't been the same since he returned from the...

    [Football] Idiot who threw the bottle (etc...)

    Sadly the trouble started before the game on the way into Wembley Park. My 11 yo son needed a wee, so, me knowing that there's a toilet at Finsbury Park, and us leaving early enough to cope, we got off to sort him out. It was there that a group of utterly bladdered albion fans tried to push on...

    [Albion] How much has the semi-final cost you so far?

    In total so far £290 for 3 tickets + embroidered shirt. Have budgeted around £100 for the day (food and beer). If I get away with £400 I think that's not to shabby.

    [Politics] Brexit

    It's going to happen today. Which is a real shame. Our government couldn't pour piss from a shoe if the instructions were on sole. I shall look forward to telling you all, "I told you so" in a few years time.

    [Technology] Back to the Moon by 2024

    The earth isn't round, and it most certainly isn't flat, it's more banana shaped. Anyhoo, here's an interesting article from the Flat Earthers who, like me, have some questions about the moon landings https://wiki.tfes.org/No_Delay_in_Communication_Between_Astronauts_and_Mission_Control

    [Politics] Brexit

    Well that was a waste of bloody time wasn't it. Give us a vote on options, they said, and then they couldn't support a single alternative. They really are a bunch of cockjugglingthunder*****, with May right at the top of steaming heap. :ffsparr:
