  1. Just need to find a Hector as a foil to Collins's O'Hare. He was brilliant today.
  2. I love reading the match thread after the event. Well played - gave me a chuckle.
  3. Just make a donation instead. https://www.britishlegion.org.uk/
  4. El Camino - A Breaking Bad Movie Thoroughly enjoyed it - although I guess if you haven't seen the TV series, it might be a little too fragmented and interspersed with flashbacks to really work as a feature film.
  5. Something else from Liverpool that can't get a job then.
  6. Grindavik now being evacuated. Even a 'small' eruption (say less than 0.1 Km3) would be utterly devastating if it pops under the town. Also, there's a small chance of 'Bye bye Blue Lagoon'.
  7. Putting a bit of meat on the bones, the following two diagrams give a representation of strength and position of recent quakes (source - Icelandic Met Office). In the first diagram, the location of each quake is marked on the map. A star indicates greater than or equal to 3. The second diagram gives a clearer idea of the magnitude and frequency of the quakes... I don't think I've ever seen so many 3's in such a short space of time.
  8. "This blue dye is woad. Britons cover themselves in it when they go to war. This glyphosate. It is a weapon of moss destruction." See? It worked 2000 years ago.
  9. Sorry, mate. Your sarcasm detector's on the blink.
  10. The site (VC) is a mine of information. Contributors are volcanologists, geologists, physicists (both professional and amateur) and just enthusiastic volcano lovers.
  11. Your sexuality is your business. What is this - a dating site?
  12. Powell: "This is a prefabricated building. It could be used to manufacture WMD. This is a railway line. It could be used to transport WMD. This is a person in a lab coat. He could be a WMD scientist." Bush (and Blair and the rest of them) : "Yep. Totally convincing. FIRE!!!!!""
  13. Water? That's Budweiser. Oh, sorry. Same thing.
  14. For the first time in almost year, I've been on Volcano Cafe and the Icelandic Met Office sites earlier today. There's been a pretty sizeable swarm over the last week or so, and as you say, it's very close to Grindavik. It certainly looks as though Þorbjörn is getting ready to blow its nose. Karl Rehnberg posted an article about it a couple of days ago, and he reckons 'imminent'. https://www.volcanocafe.org/thorbjorn-on-the-brink/
  15. It's all about perspective, and whether you are a person or a person.
  16. Seeing as the neo-fascist home secretary wants the protests banned and has regaled the police over refusing to ban them, I've half a mind to get my placard paint out.
  17. Also, he asked for Dijon mustard on his hot dog and wore a tan suit. The man just wasn't fit to be president. Not a long red tie in sight.
  18. Totally justifiable war. I'm sure those WMD will turn up any day now...
  19. Well, Bris's main contribution was something along the lines of "Worst opponents in 30 years".
