Rob182 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I know the VT section has always been a lot more, let's say.. welcoming to all sorts.. than the Off Topic section. But lately, I feel like someone has been into the local loony bin and told them about a new forum they should check out. Half of the discussions in there lately are similar to the discussions I have with my 1-year-old. "But why?"... "okay, but why?"... "care to explain?"... "oh yeah, but why?" 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 This pisses me off and cheers me up in equal measures... Due to the way maternity pay works here (she'll get 67% of her salary) my and the wife have changed our tax codes, as a result I get paid 400€ more she gets paid 300€ less She is fuming I've already transferred her 350€ and tried to explain the benefit but she can't see past the bottom line of her payslip being less, it's blowing her mind, proper stomping round slamming stuff, she'll storm off to bed by 8pm and stick something German on knowing I can't watch it, PlayStation night for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT is like meeting up with your pals for a laugh and a smoke, VT is like a night out in a dodgy club in town - you know your gonna spend a lot of the time just trying to avoid idiots that want a scrap. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) Friends birthday yesterday and went go karting. Haven't done it for 20 years. It was **** great fun. Two runs at 20 mins each also gives me a renewed respect for professional racing drivers. Focusing on nailing the corners and gripping the wheel at full pelt was knackering, but exhilarating. Had a quibble with their metric for determining the winner,.deciding it on fastest individual lap instead of average pace / number of laps but hey ho. Then discovered a new bar that had escape rooms, two bowling lanes, and old arcades. I now know I am shit at space invaders Edited March 1, 2020 by Rodders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 If anyone is thinking of saving some money this is a good deal via Quidco Link Save £50 a month and get £180 cashback. Penalty for pulling out within 5 years is £50 so could even do it after cashback is paid and be £130 up (assuming investment doesn’t go sour).

Seat68 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I am going to be vague here in the hope someone can assist. I am looking for the name of a woman, possibly a dame, that used to wear very very colourful African style clothing but to my eyes she was white. She was ousted from some children's charity and her name was something like badmangelish. Any takers to help me with her real name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phenomenal. He had everything. People talk about Messi being amazing but lacking the physicality of CR7. And CR7 having all of that but lacking the finesse and intricacy of Messi. Ronaldo had all of that. He was both of them rolled into one. Like @sne said, if it wasn't for injuries I think he'd be labelled as the best of all time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
