  1. Bennett pub in Birmingham (Bennetts Hill Road) It's even got a hidden room feels very Harry Potter-ish I think.
  2. I feel a Monty Python back and forth coming on.
  3. I give you, the worlds largest swimming pool (man made!)
  4. two (so far) absolutely stunning touch downs by the Houstan Texans tonight.. 50+ yards.
  5. Oooohhh.. I thought that was the Apple store in New York on the Eve of the new Iphone
  6. My paprika, thyme and chipotle pulled pork went down well. I think i'd leave it in the oven for an hour or two longer next time though, it came off the bone ok, Put there were some tough parts still.. any suggestions Meath? I cooked it with an olive oil paste, uncovered for an hour at 140c, then uncovered it for another 4 hours at 140c.
  7. Canada is a beta country so you won't be allowed in, eh... SWOOSH! I'm BETA for what it's worth, I just got lucky Sounds like Alpha talk to me... Omega baby! (Cable guy??)

  9. Is it me, or was some architect out of his face pissed, on an extremely tight time scale, opening the last bottle of beer, looks in his hand and thinks... "A bottle opener is a beautiful thing, I'm going to build a huge one and call it "The World Financial Centre Building"
  10. I think they'd do well with a "can you speak?" thread to be honest.
  11. The Old Joint Stock, Birmingham I mean.. How beautiful is that? Understated and almost lost on the outside, grand on the inside.
  12. Most other football fans can't read, so they can't use computers, so they cannot put content on a forum. Villa fans are so-fist-ick-ated
  13. me and my wife are hoping to emigrate to Canada I keep telling her we're moving in with the mushroom people of Nova Scotia, and she doesn't get it
  14. I'm sad that I only have very vague memories of it like that I'm proud to say I've sat in it though EDIT: @Dave80 btw!
  15. That Slam Ball looks insane 8Pints. very creative plays on that video
  16. A building built in the 1960s which doesn't suck (imo) I like it, particularly when they had the "all seeing eye" which went round the top. My fave part of town. I love the stark contrast of old and new, past & present I hate New Street Station. It's what everyone sees when they first get to Birmingham on the train, it's ugly, dark and concrete, unlike the Rotunda, it has absolutely no redeeming features of splashes of architectural style, it's just tedious to look at. Unlike New Street, I love Moor Street, it feels so quaint, yet you're in the middle of the second largest city.
  17. apparently DICE have already put 4 patches up online, server side, so you don't have to download them.. More patches to come over the next few days, but apparently it's horrendous at the minute (I'm waiting for the PS4 version).
  18. lol, rumbled? You're obviously a nice lad, but lately you've been a bit "Taylor Swift" about life. If you don't buy it, that's your problem.
  19. This was more my understanding, so no.. "beta male A man who is content with nontraditional gender roles; i.e., he is not threatened by intelligent and/or powerful women, and he does not have to be in control of every situation to maintain his sense of self. (Frequently, he does manifest a quiet kind of confidence and control over his surroundings, but it's not important to him that this is noticed by others.) A beta male is often introverted, intelligent, and introspective. Though he may have been branded a "nerd" growing up, the adult beta is frequently a thoughtful, capable, and fascinating individual whom many women find appealing. Alpha males, especially those of lesser intelligence and abilities, tend to feel threatened by beta males, who are increasingly preferred by women in modern times. Peter Parker (Spider-Man) and Jim Halpert (The Office) are famous examples of beta males."
  20. Do you even know what Beta means? Yep
  21. Stefan is maximum BETA Chill out man, you sound like a right girl
  22. It's fairly annoying I agree, mostly because I can't grow any sort of stache' or beard But if it gets some money to those charities and could potentially save my life, or any other life for that matter, then well done to the people who do it and raise money
