In my experience once you live with your wife/girlfriend, there is always new decorating/chores/DIY to do. It’s like the bloody forth bridge!

Tough question, so many beautiful places.
In this country I would have to say the Langdales in the Lake District.
But the place that really took my breath away was Rime and in particular the Forum and Collisseum.

I always struggle with the true impact of economic policies as there is always a knock on impact. It’s like dominoes falling one after the other. I get that by imposing these tariffs it protects US jobs. So good for US, not so good for China etc. However, if US manufacturers are not able to buy chea...

To be fair, a manager who has taken a team from the championship to Europe, has the right to be trusted surely.

how do i get one, what's the process?

Just sort it with the car hire company when you pick the car up.

been looking at the EZ pass but wasnt sure if it was worthwhile? we've stayed at disney resorts before, but wanted to do the car thing this time to go to more places. the car is included in the overall package so no additional hire so to speak. built in sat nav in the SUV they tell us Looking at th...

Driving in Florida is very easy as others have said. Recommend getting satnav in your hire car, once you get off the freeways, signs can be a bit hit and miss. If you are staying out in Haines and travelling to Disney area regularly then you might also want to get an EZPass. Saves having to stop and...

Have to agree Jarrow. Also why, instead of selling the plane to the US Marines, did we allow them to build under licence as the AV8b?
File under TSR 2 as another missed opportunity?
Ps to he TSR2 would be my choice if plane to fly if I only had one choice!

Very sad. As Rick says, talk to somebody, get help.

Burnley has always been a progressive club from the 1960s onwards.
But choosing an invisibility cloak as our next kit is just genius. Opposition defences literally won’t see us coming!!

Fantastic story. But not surprised in the slightest. We are very lucky to have such a talented, grounded and decent team of players and manager.

I think our name has being dragged through the mud with all of this, the rest of the footballing world will not understand the situation fully like we do. Although I agree the media reporting is not doing us any favours at all, I am not sure that the last statement is correct. On the wider football...

Eating leftover pies and watching Burnley in the 80's sounds more of a punishment than a perk Things always seem better when you look back though. Remember the pies being quite runny. Some high moments with the football also. I sold hundreds of programmes for the milk cup semi against Liverpool:) A...

Agreed, but to be honest, most papers don’t tend to moderate from what I have seen.
Just hope it starts to die down soon, not doing anyone any favours at all.

Yes but this is a newspaper, they like the message boards, keeps people clicking on their site. That is modern journalism! You only need to read the daily mail comments pages any given day! I’m sure Tony will take it in his stride.

More than a few in the grand scheme of things, loss of revenue at printers may lead to reduction is staff as well as the sellers at every club. Conservatively I would think it will be over 200 people losing part time jobs. Damn you Internet, damn you! Oh hang on a minute... As a 13 year old, I used...

No he hasn't. The comments about him are a total misrepresentation of what he is quoted as saying , and frankly most of those posting comments on the Argus article are a total disgrace. Wouldn't you say that describing Tony as a "Grade A racist" is libellous? Hadn’t seen th comments to be honest. I...

Been to Shinkansen and wasn’t impressed at all. Tend to use the Agra in Hapton which we have always liked. But will give Bombay Lounge a try based on recommendations above.

Yes. Had to wait here a few times for meds for my wife. Could never work out the rationale for why they had to be dispensed from hospital pharmacy. Maybe it is a money thing as suggested? Now learned to just drop the prescription off and collect the day after. Not easy if you don’t live locally thou...

Much as I think the murder of Stephen and subsequent ‘investigation’ was abhorrent, I do feel uncomfortable with this. As others have mentioned it feels a bit too much like the government wanting to deflect from the wind rush debacle. Just out of interest, is there a ‘national day’ for Hillsborough?...

It was 96 or dare you not type it in case it offends? Seriously? Maybe I should have said close to 100 then if it is so important. And know I didn’t use 100 so as not to offend.

The two consecutive home games against Gillingham and Man City that we lost 5-0 and 6-0. Those immediately sprang to my mind. The second of those games was the only game where I have left before the final whistle! The other that springs to mind was a 3-0 reverse at Exeter in the pouring rain. Made ...

It was very good work from Tarks and a sublime pass from Lowton.
Yet the sky sports write up says
“Burnley equalised when Barnes ran on to a long ball from Lowton”

Biggest miss for me is Brady. When we had Brady on one side and Joey on the other, we weren’t just winning matches, we were playing some lovely football also. It’s a credit to the management and players that we still managed to pick up points with all these players missing. That being said, there ha...

Rick, go back to the school and speak to the head and show them the video. If you don’t feel sufficient action is being taken then contact the governors.

A walk round Lake Elterwater is a nice easy 2 to 3 hour walk. You can start and finish at the Britannia Inn, which has good food and decent local ales.

Carlos is still as good as ever. No pretensions, just a damn good restaurant, good food, good atmosphere and good service at a reasonable price.
In terms of where to stay, just depends on your budget and how close you want to be to the area. Oaks is still a good shout though
