It's definitely not as bad as Jermaine Defoe's bin lid when we played Spurs away in the league cup semi final

I'm sorry you had to witness that Chris

Is the former Sidewalk 53 building still empty? When was it last in use?

Some years back the national guidelines changed regarding the depth of water the diving boards went over. It's a while since I managed swimming pools but I seem to recall 3.5 metres being the "new" regulation depth for a 1m unsprung board, increasing as the boards became higher and sprung. Before th...

Not sure where you'll find them in East Lancashire, but there's a good chance they'd have them you'd find them (when in season) at Waitrose (Preston, Manchester for example). Here in the south, Waitrose branches usually stock them from the beginning of the season (which can be as early as the first...

Ah, yes, think it was Zanzibar- thanks! It was bugging me trying to remember it ;) I worked at Zanzibars for about 4 years. Run by a lady called Bedellea (sp?) Foulds who also had Blueberries in Nelson. Nice lady. She was connected to some Salford boys who had money in both pubs. No one dare touch ...

Superb defender.

Recommended us to Ian Wright. In fact, I think Ian stayed with him whilst he was here.

The two things Barnes did for the goals today wouldn't have been fouls, though, even with VAR. He all but cleaned out Hernandez before he could become involved in the play without actually going into foul territory. He's just strong as fk, puts himself about and never gets bullied. You're allowed t...

If they give the council the money to invest in said projects, they might as well throw it down the drain! Bradford could, and should, be a great city, but it’s not. It’s been neglected and poorly run for generations. Even the likes of Huddersfield and Halifax (both towns, obviously and far smaller...

What happened?

Thor won. Easily.

Especially disappointed in Hall. He was a record holder at short course swimming back in the day. He knows how to be fit. He blew everyone away at the Tommy Centre when he swam there. And yet Thor turns up fitter than him.

Segi is back on again. Not sure when it’s starting I thought it was 8:30. But the arena loooks pretty empty.

Just in an ad loop just now.

Thanks Shaggy. Im in the same loop. Im now watching two men and a girl talking off camera (they think) about boxing. Very surreal

or am i just drunk?

I can't find a link that works. Any ideas? Both SEGI and HES are dropping.

Agree with others who say they can watch it over and over. For me the familiarity of the programme is comforting.

For fear of being reprimanded by the local planning officer who got upset about the car park anecdote…..I was told the pool was 33m and that they had planned to build an Olympic pool but got the dimensions wrong and so ended up with the unusual 33m length. The distance wasn't an error. The reason s...

As mentioned above, regular yoghurt will do the trick if it's good bacteria you're after. Don't bother with Yakult etc. However, it's MUCH more effective if it's FULL FAT yoghurt as the fat protects the bacteria against the hydrochloric acid in your stomach and allows the bacteria to get to your gut...

strange one but: biggest distance between our worst and best league positions and when.

Hampton often trained at the Thompson Centre gym and once refused to get off the leg machine to allow others to use it so my dad threw him out. Think it was Brian Miller who rang and asked for him to be let back in.
