  1. Yeah, it’s pretty decent so far. I’ve never read the book all the way through. I started it about 18months ago, got 25% in and haven’t been back to it, so I only know the start of the story anyway, which is probably a blessing or I’d be spending most of the time comparing it to the book.
  2. So apparently there is going to be a Wandavision cameo ‘on par’ with Mandalorian. Update: ‘At least one’

    Sneakers

    They’ve got 41 year-old, chav dad, written all over them. Perfect. .
  4. I’m gonna piss myself if this comes off and Reddit was right. In the past 1/2 hour my ‘losses’ on some of the short stock they’ve been pumping have gone from $100 dollars, to $25 and prices are rising again Game, Blackberry, Nokia and Naked Foods all on the up, if I’d got in earlier I’d making an absolute killing
  5. Markets open in a bit, see you on the other side
  6. I’ve got a few quid on this. It’s more fun than giving my money to a bookie! I only chucked a bit at it to see what would happen and I’m holding on for now. I can afford to lose the cash, but it’s also reignited my interest in stocks and I’ve been buying some nice long term stuff while messing about with this.
  7. I really like this show, but the 2nd series did go off on one a bit after a brilliant S1. I enjoyed the new episode, a good ‘previously on’ to start with and then it kind of got the story back on track for me.
  8. Finished The Queen’s Gambit. What an absolute joy that was.
  9. There were loads of theories initially, some suggesting more likely to catch and it be very ill and others saying less likely to catch it, but higher chance of being very ill if you do. Some said it was down to the lungs, some said it was because smokers touch their face more often and there was a theory that nicotine prevents it spreading. Clinical trials on nicotine are ongoing and results due later this year, but on the basis we haven’t heard anything about it, I’m assuming it’s a non-starter.
  10. Fingers crossed. Even if we haven’t made the NHS list by then, I’m hoping there will be enough supply that we can go private if we need to. I’ve got no problem paying (within reason obviously), but I wouldn’t feel comfortable ‘taking a dose’ from public healthcare, I’d only do it if it was a capacity issue, rather than than supply.
  11. I used to watch loads of films, now I spend more time checking reviews and procrastinating about which film to watch than actually watching them. Back in the day I’d pick one based on a decent cover and blurb, now I’m checking Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic and discounting a film because some bloke from the Wyoming Herald gave it 3 stars out of 5 FFS.
  12. Yup, I’m with you. Might change my tune in late August when I’m due to go to the US and haven’t had mine though! #squeakybumtime
  13. My Dad had his yesterday. Big weight off my mind tbh and once he gets his top-up, I’ll be sending him out to do my shopping!
  14. @Xela https://www.forbes.com/sites/geoffwhitmore/2021/01/10/do-you-need-a-vaccine-to-fly/?sh=61bd76fd47b4
  15. I don’t even really want to move tbh. I know we have to really, but I am 40 and looking at taking a new mortgage that’s going to end up being roughly 3x what I pay now, over the next 25 years. We’ve only been ‘ok’ for money in the past 3/4 years and now my disposable income is about to get wiped out again.
  16. There’s been a few noises about ‘vaccine passports’ that has set the KBF lot off and IIRC a couple of airlines have said they may introduce a ‘vaccinated only’ policy, can’t remember where I read that though.
  17. He’s the poverty Paul Bettany. Also, I watched one of his videos the other day and judging by his nasal whine, I suspect he might be rather partial to a bit of nose candy.
  18. God bless Twitter - these were a couple of the ‘polite’ one’s I can post here.
