Shaun the Sheep: Farmageddon
took my kids to see it. As one listener emailed into Mayo and Kermode put it (loosely translated), Aardman know how to make universally pleasing good film. My 5 and 6 year olds loved it, I enjoyed it and the 60 year old at the end of my row certainly enjoyed it.
8/10
I saw this. Loved it, so did the kids and so did Her Indoors. From the set piece slapstick stuff to the little alien in-jokes (like a cafe called 'Milliways') to the cutesiness. Laughed all the way through.

Indicators
If you're turning or changing lane, fecking use them. Have some manners.
And, lorry drivers and taxis, the simple act of using your indicator does not give you automatic right to change lane. Wait until it's clear.

Companies that call you to sell you stuff, even though you clearly pointed it out for them not too. Sky, signed up a while ago when offered a ridiculously good deal, made it very clear I wanted no calls, no post or emails unless it was directly to do with payments or faults. Bloke called, so I asked is there a problem, he said no, I said is this a sales call, he said no. I asked why the call? He said he could up grade me to sky sports for £10 a month. I said so it is a sales call, he said no it was an upgrade call....couple of mangers later, two months free Sky. Now that is an upgrade!
That’s because, as of May last year, they are breaking the law by calling you when they do not get your prior agreement that it is ok. Not an absence of refusal (ie not ticking the ‘I would not like’ box) but actually ticking the ‘I would like’ box.
The fines are potentially massive - based on turnover. Hence their buying you off with a freebie.

Is he under pressure then?

Wrong man for Chelsea at this time massive gamble for frank Massive gamble for Chelsea Currently in this situation not being able to spend.
You need someone who is tactically aware and simply that is not Frank.
Selection was awful Abraham better than Giroud don't think so midfield looked awful.
He has not learnt a thing from last year nothing and his interview at the end of the game he has learnt nothing this squad will finish around 10th if he is lucky.
They needed a experienced manager to see them through this transfer embargo and the man was Rafa.
But i am glad Frank went to Chelsea because we now have the better Manager.
He will get destroyed in this league with this squad imagine Man city i cant wait !!!
1 year he did not get us up and he gets the Chelsea job it makes no sense and time will tell i think currently with is tactics he wouldn't even win the championship but we will see next year now that would be funny.............
Who cares what Chelsea need? Let's just enjoy it.

Not sure I understand that? Sure, he's a nob for being on the 'phone, but where does the dash cam come into the equation? Couldn't you just as easily have connected the crime to the colour of his car, or the fact that he was wearing a tie (or not, as the case may be!)
Yep... I'm baffled by the reference to dash cams, sorry!
We can certainly link it to the make of car.

Surely Cardiff can see how distasteful this whole episode is and how it reflects on their club.
Can I add to the above that Cardiff pay the 15 million transfer fee to Nantes, the agent's fees get paid to the relatives of the deceased and also Cardiff get relegated this year to give them opportunity to reflect on what actually matters in this whole episode
This is a club that hired Neil Warnock as their manager. I'm not sure they know what good taste is.

Bohemian Rhapsody
5/10
This is meant to be Freddy Mercury we're talking about. Way too anodyne for me. You can see why Sacha Baron-Cohen didn't work out in such a sanitized version of the story. Astonished his replacement Rami Malek is up for an Oscar.
I watched this last night.
Firstly I have to say I don't think much of Queen's music. In fact I find it utter poo.
In that context, I was surprised that what annoyed me about the film was not the music, nor was it the Freddy Mercury impersonator, who was rather impressive. It was the whole notion that Freddy Mercury broke up the band to pursue a solo career, which simply isn't true. Far from being estranged or not on speaking terms, when Live aid occurred, Queen had only recently finished touring 'The Works'. That Brian May and Roger Taylor were executive producers makes me conclude that this was a deliberate hatchet job that they could have put a stop to at any time.
A nasty little film.
Oh, and the songs were in the wrong order.

The journey is nearing its end now so it was time to catch up with the big one, the man who was brought to derby in September 1966 to score goals, to get Derby in the big time ! That was by the then manager Tim ward, He played for the Rams for a total of 12 years, during which time they won the Football League First Division championship twice, the Football League Second Division championship and promotion to the First Division in 1969, and reached the semi-finals of the European Cup, FA Cup and the League Cup.
He left Derby for Vancouver Whitecaps and scored 15 goals for the Canadian outfit as they won the 1979 NASL title.
After his time in North America he rejoined Derby in the early 1980s.
He made a record 589 appearances for Derby in his two spells, 486 of which came in league games.
he scored 201 goals, second only to Steve Bloomer and missed only four league matches in seven seasons between 67 & 74, not a coincidence that these were our most successful years.
he didn’t say much but when he did everybody listened !
it is of course the king
Kevin Hector was quality, I spent an hour and a half with him and we discussed all things Derby County, another really pleasant guy, funny and razor sharp with his memory !
More great stories, he didn’t really see eye to eye with Mr Clough but he didn’t need to, Cloughie couldn’t play his mind games with his top scorer.
still looks fit and well and enjoys his football, he is often to be found in the south stand, but he says it’s nothing to what the BBG was but we all know that.
another one sadly disgruntled with the way that the club view them, that has been the common core running through this journey, none of them feel valued by the club, yesterday’s men who no longer generate money for the club so left out to graze.
as I have said many times before they could surely be put to use by the club !
what a legend !
a king of kings !
king Kev !
I have something in my eye.

Helping my younger one with her homework, there was a question about how long it takes a kettle to boil - 5 seconds, 5 minutes or 50 minutes. I put the kettle on to find the answer and in the 5 minutes it took to boil, we finished the homework. As we did so, the kettle klicked off. 'Now,' she said, 'I will make you a cup of tea.' Such a delight.
