Then you had to go and spoil it all by saying something stupid...

Thanks I do my best!

Spain were the better side, specially in first half where we struggled to get the ball off them at times or for some reason backed off/held back from attempting to get it. Better 2nd half where we harassed them more. Spain liked to stop play quite a bit by falling over at the slightest tackle. Anyway. it was good to put one over Australia for once. (we like you really but you do rub our noses in it at cricket and this year at netball!). Well done ladies...did us proud and Russo does have stunning blue eyes. 😉

I've ditched the professional game for the Semi Pro game...Belper Town, Beers before the match, Beers while watching the match and a couple of beers after the match, With like minded people who enjoy a laugh and a chat, It's something else, Officials are as good/bad as what DCFC have to deal with, the football is good to watch and talking to the away fans in the pub is as good as a Fish n Chip supper on a Friday night 😁 

Same with my local non-league team. Great atmosphere, specially since they got another promotion. Now they are 2 off the football league.

Finished Andor on Disney. A good addition to the Star Wars universe. Season 2 has been commissioned.

I've got my Commodore Vic20 stored away still.

BBC Micro here and it's nearly 40 years old. Replaced power supply and works fine. Love that old kit.

Dad’s Army struggling with 4 games in 10 days. He does realise half our team are close to bus pass age? Should be making changes.

He became president...that not good enough?

Don't spend too much. I have a Toshiba c850 which is about 10 years old. 8gb ram + ssd (reinstalled windows 10 onto it). All good but I backup once a week using freeware program macrium reflect.  Good thing about these older machines is that they are easy to upgrade (just one screw to undo for ram, hard drive, cmos battery access). Maybe try cex if there is one nearby. A laptop from there should be around £200-250. Look at reviews of each model first. Stick with Windows 10 for now.

Quality finish that. Fair's fair, that was top notch.

I like Russo. 😍

Brightons continued dismantling by the big six. Moises Caicedo to Liverpool for 111m. I hate the premiership.

Burton 0 Derby 2 FRGS Collins

The look and gameplay of that Man C v Arsenal match was like watching a fifa computer game. Compare that to the Big Match Revisited on earlier. Football has definately lost something with the Premiership.

Would be good to have a counter added to the screen (s) showing a running total of time added on as it occurs. Might make players think twice about wasting it if they see the result of their individual action straight away. Flash up the players face stating xyz has just wasted n minutes!

On seeing the heading, I thought the tune of a Harry Hills tv burp section.

We'd have won that easily with McGoldrick (or a striker with his knowledge of where the goal is). Had plenty of the ball without that final shot/header. Their first was (hopefully) a one-off. Keeper poor for their second.

If you liked The Walking Dead, there is a spin-off called Dead City on youtube. Saw first episode, very good. Stars the Neegan and Maggie characters as a main focus. Another one due soon with the Daryl character.

Last Man on Earth starring Vincent Price. Should have been longer. Usual excellent performance from Price. 8/10. It's on youtube.

Exactly what I was thinking. Those American series/films when they go into diners and they pour out the coffee that has been waiting there for days!

@Bob The Badger slightly off topic, but how did you rate the food in America? My experience of the States is very small, but was not overly impressed by the food I did have. 

Think everything is sweeter than we are used to including the bread?
