GB SPORTS reacted to Brammie Steve in What Are You Listening To?
Mozza also introduced me to Hazel o' Connor's 'Will you?"
Sax on that is on a par with 'Baker Street"!
Also th Chi Lites "Homely Girl" for making my heart break in a good way!

Nice shirt to add to the collection and partly for a good cause that is close to my heart ?

Women who scream when they see you naked for the first time.
The ones who then run out of the park are even worse.

If English is your first language (as opposed to 'American' English) shouldn't it be 'realised'? ?

I’ve had my car dinged in supermarket car parks enough times to now try and park in a spot further away from the shop on its own. Then come out and some monster truck has parked right next to me when there’s 100 other spaces they could have chosen.
and people who have lost the use of their legs when it comes to parking, they want to actually park inside the store, I’m sure of it

No I just think people hear it said and it catches on subconsciously. It’s not used as means of making time to think what to say because there’s no gap between “so” and the statement. You hear it a lot in interviews on tv and radio. It’s a fairly recent phenomenon. Last 5 years?
and interestingly your first line re “umm”. Apparently older people like me tend to say “er” and younger people tend to say “um”.
Always found language and the changes in meanings and pronunciation fascinating

I’ve mentioned it before but it really annoys me when people say that fairly recent thing of saying “so” in response to a question. What brought it to mind was a contestant on The Chase. When asked what he did for a living he said “ So, I’m a history student”. And what are your hobbies? “So, I like football and hang gliding”. And if you won the money what would you do with it? “So, I’d go round the world”. Grrrrrrrr

Gary Rowett is by far and away the best manager we've had since 2015.?

So all those who said we need to make allowances for all the crazy stuff that happened last season, then that we need to make allowances for all the injuries at the start of this season, then who stood by and applauded the incoming signings and then got hope from the first quarter of a hour of today's game - ah that's how Cocu wants to play - then BANG!!!
Individual errors, at least two from Rooney, and all those "allowances", signings and signs of positive play are forgotten.
Let's get Cocu out and bring back someone who had a team made for him and still failed to get us promoted. Or someone who spent loads at Bristol and didn't get them promoted. Or negative Hughton or Howe.?♂️
For heaven's sake, patience means patience... Giving time means more than "twenty minutes".
Cocu in. Think long term. COYR ?

Not really. Their goal difference will see them safely in the playoffs. Cardiff & Swansea games are the ones to watch.

You must be young.
I could imagine many ways this season could have been worse. Largely based on the experience of previous seasons.

GB SPORTS reacted to Gaspode in Live football thread.
Bit unfair on McGinn who started the season very well and was getting rave reviews only to get a bad injury - he's now being pushed to play when he doesn't look fully fit and the majority of the Villa team around him seem to have already given up.....

When I look at certain cars, their body shape, their stance at the kerbside, the way they react, you just feel, hold on a minute, this car needs pulling down a peg or two.
So I’d probably say that about all the newer black cars. You know, it’s about, when you are struggling to get to a car wash, and your car is susceptible to heavy layers of dust in this dry and breezy weather, and is suffering a sticky patch, it’s about going back to basics, being grey... or even blue. Working hard to stay that bit cleaner.

People yelling "I'm vulnerable person, stay back" in the supermarket whilst we've been in lockdown. Surely if you're vulnerable you would have the common sense not to be shopping in a people dense environment?

GB SPORTS reacted to Anag Ram in Depression, anxiety, stress and other related issues
Having liberties stripped away and our ideas of normal torn up is very unsettling.
But if you think about why we are doing what we are doing, it's because of an appreciation of the importance of life.
Many are realising how much they take for granted and also how we spend time scurrying around doing menial tasks and so little time doing the things which bring joy and comfort.
Do something today which brings a sense of achievement, something which makes you smile and something for somebody else.
The latter is hugely important. If you can help someone else in any way you will start to feel better about yourself.
It's a long journey sometimes but life is precious and starts today and each new day.
