Nice to at least have it confirmed what is going on. Comments are interesting too.

Might be sending him to Plymouth

Argyle have no manager at the moment so doubt they'd be signing anyone until that's sorted. 

Happy for Azaz to have earned a permanent move. Happy for Villa to be making some money. Sad for Argyle (grew up in Devon so they're my 2nd team and watch them fairly regularly).

Be good if we can send them another loan but guess they need to sort out their new manager first.

Rough week for them.

Forgot to buy Mushrooms and the sausage was a bit to spicy for the rest of the plate. Egg is not charred, just colored by the sausage juice. Still banged

Happy New Year VT!!!! (almost) Top of the league!

Is that streaky bacon?

The younger brother is always supposedly the better talent. Everywhere. And it hardly ever seems to be the case

Completely agree.

My younger brother signed up to the forum years ago, and not only has he never actually made a post, but he still only reads On Topic. 

Younger brother's are clearly useless.

Well he does pay for a team of accountants to help him avoid paying as much tax as possible. But it's another world of wealth.

FTFY

It’s probably quicker, actually going in is hell with all the delivery riders these days

This was about 10 or 12 years ago and was 100% nothing to do with speed of service.

She lives in France now, but every day my mum would get in her car, at the house marked Telford IT and drive to the newsagent that was part of the post office for a paper and cigarettes. Every day. Never walked ever. 

 

 

I used to work with someone who instead of walking 50 feet to the McDonald's next door would get in their car to use the drive through.

My mom's complete inability to communicate effectively via text message/whatsapp

She's looking after my lad today. Originally we said 9:30 but our plans have changed so I text her saying basically no rush but if you can take him any earlier it would be great. 

"Let me know when you're up and about and ok to take him and I'll bring him round"

Her reply at 7:30 was "ok"

 

 

I've just messaged saying "I guess I'll bring him at 9:30 then like originally planned?"

And she's said "I was ready at 7:30, I've been waiting for you"

SAY THAT THEN! You just said ok. As in "Ok I'll let you know"

You wouldn't do that in a normal conversation. Just say ok and assume you've been understood  

If I'd have messaged my Dad that all I would have received in response would have been a thumbs up.

The Raplh Bakshi animated LoTR movies might also be a bit too violent (and also only covers half the books) but have you watched the animated Bilbo movie? Think that one is rather cute and pretty wholesome.

 

Have you got a link for the 1977 one? I've been struggling to find the full version available anywhere.

Change of plans today. Still pissed off about the game last night so I'm gonna disconnect from the world and just watch all 3 extended cut Lord of the Rings movies. 

I'm counting down the days until my sons old enough to watch these.

I've already read the Hobbit (graphic novel version) to him and he loved it.

Not quite ready for the violence/scares and definitely not ready for a 3 hour film.

Watched the first Underworld movie for the first time in maybe 10 years. Great stuff. Also Kate Beckinsale in fangs 

Loved those films and Kate Beckinsale is great in them.

Always annoyed me how they developed the characters in the later films though, especially the hybrid character (Michael?).

I left Doctor Who after Ecclestone, it wasn't for me, but by god I liked the episode just on. Really good, very enjoyable. 

It grew on me as it went along. Not convinced by the new companion though, didn't seem to be a brilliant actress but hopefully grows with the role.

Not paid much attention to Leeds recently so never heard of him before. What an absolutely fantastic name. Sounds like a random football manager regen.

I think what Keto shows you is that its carbs that are the probelm for most people. 

Talking about keto and spelling mistakes. I think @Demitri_Chas hacked your account.

Well the Amarone is open

Probably my favourite type of wine.

Devoured a really good Burgundy with lunch and now sipping a vintage port.

Ghosts Christmas special/final episode and a new Dr Who to look forwards to.

Not even the Chinpanzee?

Their jawline slopes backwards and isn't a chin apparently. Same with gorillas. 

Sleeping off ridiculous amounts of Christmas Dinner on the sofa, when the wife mentions doing the cheeseboard.

Currently cooking Christmas dinner. 

And by that I mean I'm hiding in the kitchen whilst my wife is dealing with a hyper 6 year old in the living room.

I'm drinking nice wine, listening to music and reading Villatalk while actually doing some cooking once every 10 minutes or so.
