One of my favourite things in my air fryer is Roast Pork. I'm cooking a midweek roast dinner.
A mixture of crackling from the pork and extra crackling done separately. There's a lot more so should keep in a tub.
Forgot the wife had a hair appointment so currently munching on some washed down with some Thatchers Vintage. The rest all ready to finish off when she gets home.

Yep, they can’t put the genie back in the lamp now. They need to make it work
Aside from the shit show that has happened, it does highlight the value of VAR (if it was done properly)
You can see why the lineman has stuck his flag up. I'm sure the body positions meant it looked offside in real time on the touchline, yet on replay it very clearly wasn't.
However the knock on result of this is they're not now going to stick their flag up unless they are 100% sure it was offside (so comfortably offside) Increasing the risk of injuries to players when there has actually been an offside as well as the issue that there would only be a check if a goal was scored which wouldn't stop someone scoring from say a corner obtained after the incident.
So many things to sort out, which ultimately can't be, without pretty much an instant decision.

Anyone else’s kids have a noise sensitivity when they were toddlers?
I’ve just picked up little un from childminder and she said that he was freaking out at the sounds of motorbikes and aeroplanes above to the point of complete meltdown. This seems new as he’s never really been like that around me and mrs.
im trying not to freak out cause he was born prematurely and he had a bad reaction to gentamyacin which I know can affect hearing. He has an audiologist so will mention at next appointment but yeah just wanted some other peoples thoughts.My daughter is 6. I think I might get her hearing checked out. We often have to repeat what we say to her but then other times she is fine. She doesn't particularly like loud noises and environments, that's been the same since she was a toddler.

2 more people arrested for the Crooked House fire. A 34yo woman, and a 44yo man, from Leicestershire. We all know they are the new owners.
Arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit arson with intent or being reckless as to whether life was endangered. Been bailed.
It's not say they won't get away with it in the end, but the arrogance (presuming it was them) that they would get away with it is amazing. On the face of it, it looks so brazen.

yeah that would be my message to anyone paying for a lounge...it's better than being sat in wetherspoons for 4 hours, but don't expect luxury
I've booked to go in the Number 1 lounge on Friday at Birmingham. Not been in one before but just figured I'm going to need something to eat and will probably end up having a few beers too so just thought I'd spend the £30 anyway plus on my own as mates going from elsewhere. So just hoping for somewhere a bit more comfortable than the main lounge to chill for a couple of hours.

They should come forward and press charges as now its come out if they want him to be justice
The sad truth is sexual assault and rape charges are so hard to actually get a conviction back when the incidents happened and still today. There is bound to be a fear that they would go through it all and he's found not guilty, which is heartbreaking if you know you are telling the truth.
It only seems like the 'wins' come in non criminal cases and pay offs to avoid them and that's in The US rather than here.
It is such a minefield though, in the fact sometimes there are false claims. Similarly last week I think, on the same day there was a report about abusive father's being allowed to see their children and causing harm again and another about a number of women making false claims to get custody and to ban contact entirely.

I do believe you can actually require a licence to own a pit bull in uk. They aren’t given out willy nilly to anyone , and they must be muzzled when out in public.
I presume that's what will happen to the current XL Bully owners. Ban the trading and breeding of them, and current owners will have to apply for a licence and follow some strict rules if they are awarded a licence, if they want to keep their dog.

i grew up in worcestershire where middle schools were a thing. i was surprised to learn that the rest of the country dont really have them.
Yeah this is Droitwich. It's not something I've experienced before. It does seem like a good way to give them a bit of a head start and prepare them for secondary school. Although not sure whether the figures back that up.
Although to go along with that it does seem like she has grown up very fast.

For some completely unknown reason out of the blue my 3 year old started calling me dad today rather than daddy
I'm shocked at how heartbroken I am
My youngest is 6. I still get Daddy most of the time but also get Dad too, and even weirder is when she occasionally calls me Liam (which is my name rather than some random name she calls me)

Probably one for the “older” thread, but my youngest started high school today
My step daughter starts year 7 on Friday (which is ridiculous anyway for just 1 day of the week) but its middle school. High school will be next year.

It was my birthday last week and one of my mates got me some weird presents, a battered second-hand DVD Jurassic Park trilogy and a snack bowl built into an American football helmet. Today he admitted that he had 'regifted' them to me, someone else got him the snack bowl recently but **** knows how long he has had the DVDs for. I don't want to sound ungrateful but I think I'd have preferred if he had totally forgotten my birthday.
The wife's Aunt and Uncle are terrible for it. We got a giant wall clock for our wedding present, which was obviously something they had but didn't want. Then when we visited several months after Christmas they gave our girls their presents. Some old porcelain cups and dolls (some broken) they again obviously didn't want on a clear out, and some things their kids must have had growing up but didn't use. Well that was my first thought until the girls started to look at them, some activities had been done in a book and bits missing and the sweets were out of date.
I just don't get it, our girls wouldn't have been expecting anything, any gift wasn't necessary. There's no harm done, we tell the girls to say thank you and that's that. Not going to say anything and fall out as it's nothing major and even quite funny to laugh about or moan about on football forums, but it is strange. I'd be embarrassed to try and do the same.

Seems like a very sensible signing

I don't think he had a great game last week. He does seem like a player that needs a game or 2 to get his rhythm going though. I feel his bad games were first off and after injury. Not too worried he is a class act.

We've all seen the wacky beer flavours and i've bought a few. This might be going a bit far though.

Joint second in the VT league and top in my work one and mates one. I think I may have peaked a little too early
-
Just joined, not actually done it in a number of years but persuaded to do one at work so also joined in with my mates league that I used to enter so may as well do this one as well.

We can't sell Douglas Luiz, he is central to the project........these rumours need to do one.
Probably are just that. Have footy insider ever actually called anything that hadn't been reported by better journalists?
I just can't see it. I can't see either Spurs or Arsenal paying enough to tempt us at this point and with claret and blue tinted glasses can't see why he would want to go to Spurs. That leaves whether there is a release clause in that new contract.

I saw a couple of DB12's yesterday, presumably doing some in house test drives or had been on show somewhere. Looked nice, better from the side than behind.

He's from Widnes, this is normal
Saw the article yesterday first person I thought of was Anthony Gordon. Not quite as drastic as that one but did think it must be a thing in that neck of the woods.

This may be purely anecdotal but bowel cancer. It appears to be absolutely everywhere and particularly striking down the young.
Almost got me wandering if there's something in the water.
Well it's defintely topical for me as my Dad has just been told he has a growth. As well as one in the bile duct which appears separate rather than secondary. Not confirmed they're cancer but pretty likely. Bastard Cancer!

Not sure if it's been mentioned and will be irrelevant if he goes on loan but would he count as a club developed player in terms of a European squad?
He was an academy player but pretty late on after getting him off West Brom.
Air Fryers and Meal Ideas
in Off Topic

The Pork itself, I put on the 230° Air fry until the crackling has gone all crispy then put it on roast at about 160° for the sufficient time to cook the pork.
The extra crackling, was the first time I'd done it in the air fryer. I tried it 2 ways cut in long strips and chunks of about 2cmx4cm (done separately) and air fried at 230° for about 25mins. Salted and coated with a bit of oil before hand and a bit of moving around during cooking. Both worked pretty well.
