When they are in their 30's they'll be asking "where have all the good men gone?!"

 

And 40's, I was in the dating scene as a newly divorced 40yr old. Many a Tinder profile would mention "knight in shining amour" Great times

Or women with things like HE11 CAT or B1TCH, both of which I've seen on white luxury cars. 

I know I would hate any time in their company. 

These are the kind of females you don't take round to meet your parents, but rather stay at home for a bit of DHUTWU action.

So many great moments in that show. Lil Sebastian, Burt Macklin FBI, the Cones of Dunshire...

Shout out to the Calzone's, Entertainment 720 and of course Jean-Ralphio (and his sister)

Haha.  Only 2 likes. Disappointed 

@darrenm didn't like it much either

What ever happened to that fella? Haven't seen him for a while.

Waco: American Apocalypse on Netflix, only episode 2 but its very good. A lot of footage I've not seen before, especially of the gunfight at the start.

I have been watching A Southern Scandal on Netflix and having watched 2 episodes I have to say it is an extremely gripping story.

I have just noticed today that there was a court case going on in last few weeks and has just come to its conclusion.It’s about the Alex Murdtaugh murder trial.

 

Is it me or do all the kids involved come across as words removed? There's a whiff of bullshit in their stories.

I'm going back to using a piggy bank to store my money. It'll lose less than that wanky stock market.

In contrast, I finished Andor last night and it's easily the best Star Wars thing since the OT. If you haven't watched it forget about all the other shows and just watch that I'd say. It feels like an actual TV show, not some shoved out 'content' 'product' nothingness.

This. Also it looks like a different team of writers and directors for Andor who actually know how to tell a good story with good characters.

Mandolorian should of finished at S2.

Paul Mitchell, proppa blues, drank in town, gave that DVB a clump during a game. Proppa legend.

Memorial DVD soon to be released.

Mate.

And I don't mind the idea that oasis were purely a lad band, unfortunately I'll also happily admit that I spent a fair bit of my 20s being a lad...and I wasn't going round my mates house or on the pub juke box putting on the universal or radio heads latest envelope pusher 

I must be close to your age as this is how I remember the mid 90's. I was about 20 and the music was great, so many great bands being played on the radio.

I still listen to Oasis and Shed Seven most days even now.

The tracker price with Octopus for gas has been half the amount as the standard tariff for the past five days... piss take. 

Its certainly a piss take if you're not lucky enough to be on it.

My mother in law had a contract for about £30 a month as it included the latest Samsung handset at the time. About 4 years later she still has the same phone, long out of contract and still paying the £30 plus a bunch of inflationary rises when she could have been in a sim-only £8 or £10 a month tariff.

I thought the operators were forced to put you on a SIM only tariff once the cost of the handset had been paid off during the term of the initial contract?

I’m tempted to just leave tbh. I’ve been with them for many years and done the annual bartering thing. Tbh the rest of the family do nothing but complain about the broadband dropping out. I actually had to buy another one (Vodafone) to keep them happy but that is cancelled now as out of contract.

I was previously paying about £77 including the other broadband. The VM broadband has been better since we got the hub 5 and the pods but it’s still choppy at times.

I’m tempted to go with Sky as they have 500mb/s and standard TV and Netflix for £60 a month. No dish. Possibly somewhere around £100 cashback from Quidco too.

I can get 145mb/s on that package for £50 but with everyone using it and work, and TV I think it’s best to go bigger.

Finished George and Tammy last night. A six part series about country singers George Jones and Tammy Wynette. I'd heard of her before watching it but not him. It is really good with some great acting from Jessica Chastain and Michael Shannon in the lead roles. Well worth watching. 

Shannon as usual delivers a fine performance as George.

I see Boardwalk Empire is also getting a mention currently in this thread. He's great in that too!

Agreed. Reynolds has been involved in some fantastic business ventures, largely by being the popular face of the product and using his own brand to advertise it. The gin company he was involved in (think he was actually just a minority owner) sold for $600m when a few years before he was involved nobody had heard of it and it was worth fractions of that amount. 

He's started a trend of these types of things.

The same gin company that also has their logos on the club's training tops/jackets?

I've been using SIM free 30 day contracts for the last ten years. Would never dream of entering into a 2 year contract with one of the big boy operators.

Never paid more than £10 a month for the contract. Change my phone every 3-4 years, pay no more than £200 for a Moto or Xiaomi handset

Unfortunately, there is a lot of this garbage coming from Russians elsewhere. Funny thing is there is an article floating about on how the Russians are the most well educated population globally. Canada 2nd, followed by Japan, the US with the UK in 6th. I didn't bother reading because it was undoubtedly bollocks.   

As high as 6th you say?

Watching Andor for the 2nd time to make sure it wasn't a fluke.

Its just as good the 2nd time round. Fantastic sci-fi and story telling.

I'm sick of hearing this bollocks about the Paul fight was good for boxing because it brings more eyes to the sport. The people who follow Paul, likely have the attention span of a gnat.

My 16yr old lad who has no interest in boxing was all over this fight, the smack talk, the build up.

He fell asleep after the 4th round.

Presumably they will want to offload him off the wage bill and even more so if they get relegated

Don't forget the clever runs he makes, they will be sorely missed.

They should have stopped after Infinity War / Endgame, the quality of their output is dreadful in comparison. 

Totally agree with this. Nothing released since is anywhere near the quality of those 2 films.
