You quit too early!
Ambika Mod is far more believable than Hathaway as the girl whose charms are overlooked. She has more natural humour and charisma.

I'm a big fan of Curb Your Enthusiasm, Seen the lot...brilliant, Now series 12 is out I thought age may have crept up on the show...nope brilliant if not better, All the characters are getting older...but the story lines are getting better 👏☺️ 

Yeah, I've also heard that when he's good he's special. To be fair, one of the times I saw him was at Wembley Arena - I think you could see The Beatles supported by Jimi Hendrix (with Janis Joplin on backing vocals) there and it would still be underwhelming.

I got lucky - saw him about 8 years ago in a small venue and he was superb - he was even in a good mood! 😅

The Blunts now are the third club (after Sunderland and Wolves) to achieve the feat twice. This is the third closest any team has come after, strangely, Sheffield United in 2021 and Huddersfield in 2019. To put it into perspective, Sheffield United still passed eleven points a full 48 days before 29th March, which is the date we were relegated in 2008. This record is going nowhere.....  

Not the Premier League but Europe wide...

Well done, you've made my day remembering

Happy Clods day.

You need to get some perspective 😉

Because at the moment you have two sensors in a line, and a very close line (width of a finger nail) - see picture one, no technology is going to be smart enough and today the sensor might be onside but the finger nail is offside. If you then have sensors - for example in the front of the shirt, and your requirement is completely offside you are looking for a single individual to be further forward than any other player (or all but one, by the strict rules of offside). If the onus is on a player having to be offside, whereas now it is on them having to be onside, you introduce more 'forgiveness' to the rule - innocent till proven guilty and all that. The ref ultimately decides what 'clearly' means - for me it means there must be grass between the attacker and the defender if you draw a line across. It's not perfect, nothing is, but it is a much, much, much more accomodating interpretation than the one that exists today. You'll all thank me one day.

Indoors?

If you see the latest BUPA advert that is exactly where they want it to go - promoting things like access to GPs, palliative care, specialists access. It's abhorrent to watch as it indicates the plan coming together, underfund the NHS to the point it is no longer able to serve and then leave private companies to fill the gaps created by that underfunding. I don't think anyone denies that private health providers have a purpose - plastic surgery, electives etc. that we could never expect the taxpayer to fund. But when private healthcare providers are promoting core services as a subscription / insurance based service we know the tipping point has been reached.
In other news, over the last ten years private health providers have donated more than £800k of funds to the Conservative party over the past ten years. Not related to the above, of course.

Maybe you're judging the gift of life by slightly less material outputs than the number of televisions you possess? Good on you if that is the case, the older I get the more I try to focus in that arena. And I've yet to go to a funeral where the eulogy focused on how many cars or houses the deceased managed to accrue in their life.
As for Charles, or Charles Philip Arthur George, Duke of Cornwall, Duke of Rothesay, Earl of Carrick, Baron of Renfrew, Lord of the Isles, and Prince and Great Steward of Scotland. to give him his full title, I wish him a full and speedy recovery. I don't blame him for trying to access the best of healthcare available to him and, as a person, he strikes me as someone who does somewhere - underneath it all - see the anachronism that is monarchy. But, as others suggest, he's largely making the most of what the randomness of life has delivered him. It's not his fault he was born to be king, no more than it's some Brazilian kids fault they were born in a slum. Sorry, got a bit off track there but still - when you're on a roll you're on a roll.

That's nothing, last time Leicester played Forest they printed all over the programme that it was a derby game. How embarrassing was that?

Agreed. Easily the best episode is when the Claud etc. are ripping them apart over their business plans.
One of the things that irritates me (apart from Lord Sugar, his lame jokes and the contestants themselves of course) is some of the things they are judged on just to make it "good" entertainment. Is Lord Sugar really going to assess (and potentially eliminate) a candidate just because they're not very good at selling products on a market stall or don't know how to follow a cooking recipe? I try to convince myself that that's all just for the TV programme and the real assessments is done off camera. 🤷‍♀️

It's a bit like Dragon's Den, and things like Big Brother before it. It's eaten itself alive in that there is too much awareness from the contestants on how to game the concept.
Specifically were The Apprentice failed was when it went from a 'job' to an investment - you now have people go through fourteen weeks of tasks and then Alan Sugar chooses to eliminate them because he doesn't like their business proposal, something he could have easily said in week one.

I went to a midnight auction with a friend, because we couldn't sleep, and I bought Ronnie Barker's duvet for £5. My mate then bought Ronnie Corbett's for £3, so it was a good night for me and a good night for him.

He wasn't the worst deadline deal day of all time, he wasn't even the worst deadline day deal of that day
