I am reminded of a CRM system install at a previous employer. Don’t worry about version “one-point uh-oh” they said. System had been thoroughly debugged during the parent company install in Italy. First morning, 2 items sold @ 99p.
That will be £1.99. Please…

Funny, but every time I see dinosaurs and hominids in the same cartoon, my eye twitches.

I’m reminded of the quip, “The man who invented predictive text, sadly passed away last week. The Funfair is on Wednesday”

Sure , but I think it strayed into schmaltz for me. The apparent ease around guns was another US theme which jarred. Particularly when they were so ineffective except at killing soldiers. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a cracking yarn which we much enjoyed.

I enjoyed it having binged the whole thing in a few weeks. The only thing which troubled me was how the kids, who had shown such bravery and resilience in the face of extreme danger, then go to pieces when discussing their relationships. Difference between US and UK view perhaps?

A provocative opinion, clearly designed to draw attention away from Sinitta’s GTO. Not biting.

I sometimes wonder who the Guardian dislikes more; the Rabid Right or the “disappointing” left of centre?

As a rule, when you move in with your beloved, a few duplicates in your combined cd collection is a positive sign. How do the youngsters get around the six hour playlist if there is no shared musical tastes?

So in Trump’s view, Putin can be trusted not to ignore any deal they sign because a minerals deal would give the US an economic interest in Ukraine.
So him giving security guarantees should be no big deal, surely?

Taking time of the two posts as a reference, that’s 6 beers in 85 minutes, or circa 14 minutes per pint. A bit lame for a rugby man, surely?

Actually, the man who invented predictive text sadly died recently.
The funfair is next Tuesday.

Another case of a leader whose main flaw was not what he did, but the things omitted through insufficient bravery.

Retired Audiologist here. One chap reported tinnitus in his left ear, which stopped after adding olive oil. When I examined his canal there was an insect leg sticking up. Referred to GP. Can’t believe a health professional would not explain (appropriately) what they saw.

Am I alone in loving Christmas but finding New Year a bit blah? Maybe my body finds the cumulative excesses have reached saturation point. Do enjoy yourselves despite this Grinch.

Calling Sadiq Khan's knighthood a "reward for failure" is a bit rich from the party that knighted Gavin Williamson and gave Chris Grayling a peerage.

So much for basing a score prediction on a “feeling.” RM has gone and deserves to after another awful result. But will the replacement be any better?

During Covid lockdown, if you had family round on Christmas Day the police could force their way into your home and make them return to their own homes.
Does anybody know if this service is still available and, if so, do you have to book it?
