  1. Cheers. A couple of dollars on the 40 remains the choice at this time.
  2. Don't know, never used one.
  3. In regards to getting to the falls from Buffalo, we intend on getting the number 40 NFTA from downtown. Is the the best/easiest/cheapest was of doing it? Thanks.
  4. Was it a lone raider or did someone give them a hand?
  5. Wow. My first comment after the game finished yesterday was "just when you think you've seen it all, everything you've never seen happens in one hour". The greatest ODI ever played.
  6. What a game New Zealand v India was. Not often you see an ODI split over 2 days but it was worth it. I thought India were going to get over the line around 8 overs out but NZ were brilliant at the death.
  7. The Niagara Falls once fell off Chuck Norris but did not survive.
  8. I have a friend who loved Rugby League. He'd always be mysteriously off work whenever the State of Origin games were on (shown early morning here in the UK). We always said he had State of Origin Flu.
  9. I enjoyed Far From Home too. It was good to get another chance to get to know the Spiderman character better as all we've had is Home Frome Home and his bit parts in a couple of The Avengers films. I was thinking the same as Vader about MJ. She seems a bit of a tw@t but I did start to warm to her towards the end. The first end credit seemed a bit Iron Man when Stark revealed he was Iron Man in front of the press. This seemed to fit in with the narrative of Spiderman thinking he is replacing Iron Man in some way.
  10. England finally realised betting first when winning the toss is the way to go in the tournament. The pitches seem to get slower and lower as the game goes on. Whoever wins the toss in the England v India game will win the match. I think Australia will bee too strong for a rapidly declining New Zealand team whoever who bats first. Games dependant on the last couple of results as you mentioned.
  11. Not had it yet. We head over for the Patriots game in September.
  12. My son came home from school all excited yesterday. They had some kind of assembly bigging up the game so he wanted to watch it. 100 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Overall the defending was appalling. Three passes then a hoof up field or giving the ball away. Foul throws. I see enough of this tomfoolery watching my own team play each Saturday. I don't expect to see it in a World Cup semi final. Then throw in VAR where it took the ref 10 minutes to make a decision so how it could have been a clear and conclusive reversal is crazy talk. England then let a centre back take the penalty when they have the joint top scorer in the tournament on the field. Phil Neville has always been the lesser brother and it continued last night. In the end, it turns out my son only wanted to watch it because it got him a late night. All he wanted was extra time and penalties and he'd have done me up like a kipper.
  13. Yes, a mate of mine is like that.
  14. When the assistant official raises the electronic board to show the amount of time to be added this is a minimum. Ensuring any injuries, time-wasting etc during this time can be taken into account as well. As to why they have to wait until the ball is in play before blowing for full time is lost on me too.
  15. Yes. Every 5th November.
  16. I've got a copy of it at home. When I said "amazing" I didn't mean it in a good way.
  17. We called our cat Woody after Eric Wood.
  18. I'd have a party in her descending colon.
  19. It's good to see if you don't perform well in one of the three aspects you get punished and lose. England were awful in the field versus Pakistan and rightfully paid the price.
  20. Tough call. John Major probably did the least damage.
  21. On the whole Churchill was a pretty poor Prime Minister. However, he got the big (well massive and most important) thing right. This is what he's remembered for. The film Darkest Hour with Gary Oldman playing Churchill is excellent.
  22. The first time in many a year I've not watched a Champions League final. Just a bog standard English league game really. Sounds like I didn't miss much.
