    Viagogo is legit, just stupidly overpriced.

    Yes we had a pre sale code but no idea of the number of people that would have one, quite a few I would think. Got the tickets from gigs and tours website and only took 25 minutes.

    Seems like there's actually no good outcomes then 🤔

    As Leeds Ram said initially it will be positive for Ukraine as it will cause confusion in the Russian Army and weaken them, some elements may even desert.
    However mid to long term, this will only be bad. Remember Putin allowed Wagner fill its ranks with a wide range of criminals from Russian prisons, these guys are now launching a coup. Wagner also has significant Nazi elements (quite the irony given the hand wringing on here regarding “Azov Nazi’s”)
    Prigozhin has always been pro war against Ukraine, he just thinks it’s been completely mis-managed.
    He’s in charge of a group that Putin used to commit war crimes and other atrocities in conflicts. Imagine what he will do if he is running the Russian army?
    I can only see bad things if he manages to overthrow Putin. That’s not to say that Putin’s reign isn’t absolutely terrible.
    Whilst Putin’s potential downfall is well deserved, what could replace him is absolutely disturbing!

    In the short term, it's probably a good thing. It certainly ties Russia up and stretches an already largely depleted Russia. In the long run it's really impossible to judge at this point.

    I thought the antics of Jose Mourinho on Wednesday night towards referee Anthony Taylor were an absolute disgrace, I would ban both him and Roma from European football for 5 years. I thought the antics by both teams were an all time low in football.

    Good that we all like different stuff though . Otherwise the shows being made would all be so similar.
    I know shows can reward you for sticking with them, and I know I'm capable of giving up too soon. But can you say you were enjoying Succession from the start, or did you have to watch several episodes to get into it?
    Other really popular, seemingly well thought of shows I couldn't get on with.
    Ozark. I thought the first episode was quite good. So carried on. By the time I got to about six or seven, I hated it, and every one in it, so gave up.
    Ted Lasso. I thought, from what everyone was saying, this must be good. I somehow got through the whole of season one, but thought it was awful. Again, not a single likeable character, and also, and I know that comedy is a very subjective thing, but there's nothing remotely funny in this show!
    The Expanse. Just confused the hell out of me. Too many characters, and I had no idea what was going on, or who was who. 
    Severance. I actually enjoyed this for the first 2 or 3 episodes. But got very bored with it by about 6 and gave up. 
    For Balance, some stuff I've loved, in no particular order.
    Better call Saul, Breaking bad, The west Wing, Godless, Queen's Gambit, Better than Us, Shtisel, Stranger, Pine Gap, Secret City, Borgen, Occupied.

    I'm puzzled by the Not my King protesters.
    Usually when people protest, there's some kind of point to it. Something that the protester is trying to prevent. Saving a tree, stopping a new road, demanding a new road, wanting a pay rise, whatever. Whether I agree with them or not, or their methods, I do at least understand the protest.
    Not my King? Why are you telling me this? Why do you think I, or anyone else needs to know you feel that way? 
    I may as well wear a tee shirt that says, I don't eat apples.

    It annoys me that for some weird reason, in this country we seem to use both! We don't measure anything at work in imperial. Whether it's something 17 metres in length, or I'm filing something to change it by 0.10 of a millimetre. So why do we still use miles? Maybe couldn't afford to change all the distance signs 😀.
    I'm old, but I haven't a clue what I weigh in stones. I only use KGs. Yet if asked about height, I'm six foot one. I buy petrol by the litre. Then people use MPG. Why? 
    I don't really mind which system we use, but I've never understood why we seem to try and use both.
