  1. We do it to annoy lazy foreign counts.
  2. "Now I'm a paraplegic and I know why". They don't write them like that anymore. "There are ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away". Doesn't get much better than that. Including Afroman.
  3. We stayed here. Very good hotel. It was close to everywhere we wanted to be. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. The swimming pool was just the job too.
  4. I love the song and the album "Urban Hymns" is superb. An interesting titbit about Bitter Sweet Symphony: "Bitter Sweet Symphony" is based on a sample from a 1965 version of the Rolling Stones song "The Last Time" by the Andrew Oldham Orchestra. The Verve added strings, guitar, percussion and vocals. They obtained rights to use the "Last Time" sample from the copyright holder, Decca Records, but were denied permission from the Rolling Stones' former manager, Allen Klein. Following a lawsuit, The Verve relinquished all royalties and the Rolling Stones members Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were added to the songwriting credits. In 2019, ten years after Klein's death, Jagger, Richards, and Klein's son ceded the rights to The Verve songwriter Richard Ashcroft.
  5. Well Liam Gallagher was awsome. A set list of pure joy. Some of the old B sides were so unexpected but brought back memories in my head I didn't l know I had.

  6. You could have Wimbledon in NYC or maybe in nearby Flushing and call it something like The US Open.
  7. Elizabeth Tower?
  8. Poppycock.
  9. That competition is dead now. You'd be welcome to them. On the SB in London, I agree with Grimbo and Gunner. It's not for me.
  10. Baby Reindeer. An absolute box of frogs of a show.
  11. About time the feds caught up with him after that criminal 9&7 in the Ryder Cup.
  12. Soccer stickers in albums. Mainly World Cup and Euro Championships. Also completed a couple of NFL sticker collections.
  13. Ozzy is jam-packed full of poppycock.
  14. European games schedule being released on Wednesday morning (07:00) in the US for all you many lovers of football in the AM.
  15. Cheers. It could also be a tough spot for McLaurin who's hurtling towards 30 and hasn't had a sniff of a championship yet. He's put up very good numbers with a precession of ne'er do wells at QB. There might come a time in the very near future where he starts to get angsty and wants a good go on a challenging team. Washington are miles off and might still be for 2/3 years. All depends on McLaurin's motivations of course.
  16. I struggle with cap numbers and that but I've always wanted Terry McLaurin on the Bills before he goes beyond 30.
  17. The strongest rumours for the London games are: Jets @ Vikings - Tottenham - 6 October Jaguars @ Bears - Tottenham - 13 October Patriots @ Jaguars - Wembley - 20 October If true 2 division foes having to cope with the disruption and NE having to play Jacksonville after they've been here for over a week.
  18. Johnny Marr and The Charlatans sharing the bill in the town I was born on 29th June.
  19. Or suggest he's a danger to children just because of his appearance.
  20. Looks like there's a party at Chad Hogan's.
  21. It'll make a mockery of the saying "you play for the name on the front of the jersey and not the name on the back".
  22. Bills trade Diggs. He's headed to Houston. An absolute abomination.
