I'm on 3 mobile and, just to further clarify what you've said:
It's £2 per day in Europe but £5 per day in other parts of the world. The 24hr period would also be triggered by data usage - not just phone calls or texts.
Once you pay your £2, any phone calls or texts are included in your normal allowance so, if you have unlimited calls (as I do) calls don't cost you anything above the £2 Go Roam fee (subject to the usual non free phone numbers).
If you have limited data (I have 12Gb per month which has always proved to be enough) but think you'll need more (for example, you or someone in your family may want to stream stuff whilst you're away - we used my phone as a hotspot for 2 mobile phones and 2 Ipads whilst we were abroad) you can buy a data passport for £5 a day.
We often go with Eurocamp (even though the kids are grown up, we still go on our own out of school holidays) and these Go Roam costs are usually far less than the campsite charges.
Plusnet, you can take your uk allowance to Europe and they are cheap as chips. They are owned by BT which own EE. Still crap in the stadium though

Many of my compatriots would do a straight swap for emperor Macron though

Wow, that is a shocking stat if true. That might even kill any future football punditry career. Although maybe not. Used to wind me whenever Jewell appeared on Sky as a pundit despite his shockung reign here.
Christine will get him on loose women, don't worry.

Lost his last 10 games between Everton and Chelsea. Not even Jewell or Davies managed that feat during "that season".
As Rafa would say:
"He is a 10 out of 10 manager. Fact."

6 loss out of 6, what a run he is on. He could be out for a duck.

Anyone recommend any interesting destinations in Europe, I've been quite lucky in as much I've been to the majority of the major capitals and am now running out of inspiration......only places left I can see are Berlin (doesn't really interest me), ditto Madrid and Copenhagen and Vienna or Geneva (don't really grab me either tbf)
If you ve not been to Sevilla, well worth a visit. Beautiful city one of the prettiest i have been to and seen a few. Plus you are guaranteed to see a home game as Betis and FCSeville alternate

Everything about the club is PL standard. PP, Moor farm, support for the club. The only missing piece is on the pitch. One day...

Similar problem with a kitchen unit door. Filled the hole with no more nails, let it dry, drilled it back (small drill bit) so screw does not rip through. It is still attached.

Nokia, several ones, blackberry a few windows phones, all work phones, broke a few, lost a few. Now own a crap one, according to the kids, but cheap to replace. And that is the best thing about it.

Is that true? Are refs at our level still part-time? I didn't know that - that's shocking!
Surely it would be in everyone's interests to make them full professionals in the pro game?
Even at our level, there's enough dosh flying about to make that happen.
Take a slice off players' and managers' wages. After all, it's their careers they are affecting with their crazy decisions!
AFAIK only PL and Championship refs are on a professional contract with PGMOL. PL are on a basic of roughly 70k a year. Compared that to PL player who earns this in a day. I am not even sure linos are on that contract.

It's quite perverse really.
The lower down the leagues the lower quality of refs you get, they don't have any help, there's no backup / safeguarding system but the impact of their incorrect decisions is perhaps wider and more detrimental to the clubs on the end of them than it is for clubs higher up the pyramid. Clubs who's very existence can hinge on a few hundred grand.
Meanwhile you've got the 'best' referees in the Premier League yet they get the assistance of a video replay system to ensure that their c*** ups can be reversed and have as little impact as possible in a league where the worst that can happen is a club suffering the indignity of a relegation to the Championship but tens of millions of pounds in parachute payments handed to them to ensure they have as much chance as possible of going back up.
Good point and to add to this the ref's in the prem are pros, work on their fitness, get to saint georges to get fit and be assessed. L1 refs probably use their local gym and have a proper job so can't spend their day working on fitness/recovery

If the reason for disallowing our goal was a foul on the keeper then we should have had a penalty for a push on Knight and in the first half the goalkeeper pushed McGoldrick when we had a corner. These refs have to be consistent. If the linesman gave a foul it was a guess whether a foul was committed but he must be thinking any guess decision must go against Derby so the officials have either been given a mandate or they just want to see Derby not succeed.
I don't buy this ref conspiracy engineered by the EFL against us. I just think the ref's aren't great at this level. In the same way that players quality go down, from the PL down So do the refs, so does the level of ref's. Simple as that. The best one this,season was the lady ref, but she's off to the Women's world cup in OZ.

For those who don't know, Bard is Google incorporating one of these "large language models" into its search technology. I'd say Bard is the tamest version of a large language model, which fits with Google being the dominant, trusted earch engine online. It has to navigate a fine line between incorporating sufficient technology to look as if it's keeping up without producing too much output that's wrong or speculative. The end result is servicable, but somewhat bland. But it is amazing how normal it seems to be having these interactions with a chatbit. Here's a Bard example I did to show what I mean:
I got access yesterday. Very quick to compute answers. It won't be long before someone combines answers from several models.

There were better than us for sure. Energy all over the pitch, good movement ,quality on the ball, as good a side we've seen at PP this season. Morsy had the freedom of PP. But, 1-1 and it's a different game. What the lino saw, I' ll never know. Commentary on ITV highlights says foul on the keeper and he is standing there on his line with no one around him. Terrible decision.

Can we do a Forest and sign all of them?
Then we decide

"Of the $67 million the company collected from Goldman Sachs and other investors in 2020 and 2021, Kirchner stole $28 million to “fund his lavish lifestyle,” according to the SEC complaint. He spent $495,000 on a luxury suite at a North Texas sports stadium, about $22,000 on membership fees for a private golf club in Westlake, over $902,000 on personal credit card charges and about $274,000 for luxury concierge services for his private jet.
Kirchner needed permission from his chief of staff to transfer more than $100,000 out of the company’s main bank account, according to the complaint. Before purchasing his plane, he messaged the chief of staff that there was a “big week coming up” for the company so he could transfer $20 million without raising any alarms.
He sold the aircraft in August 2022 for $17 million to help pay off his debts."
Fit and proper, my ar$e

Further to this, I didn't expect it to swear and it didn't. But sometimes I don't and that wouldn't have been obvious.
And for anybody who wants to play about with it, I am using the paid version at $20 per month. That's the only way you can use 4 at the moment.
I also just got the go-ahead to use Bard and will check that out over the weekend.
How is Bard performing?
