      If he makes it through the full term, I pay.

            I've got that weekend off and she is willing to travel so would be nice if we randomly went somewhere and the game happened to be on

              Is Widows out?

              It and Stan and Ollie are just about the only things I'm looking forward to seeing from this years crop.

                  I saw the Favourite last week and thought it was very good FWIW. The three main actresses are top class in it.

                    My wife took her 80 year old very religious mother to see it when back in america, neither had any real idea about it, by all accounts things were awkward during the scissoring scenes

Your choice of entertainment goes from being a private matter to something public and thus something you could use to provide a signal about your values and so on.

                      Just a weird thought I had myself on the Luas to work earlier; I sometimes feel like listening to 'comfort food for the ears' in terms of very easy listening music on my commute in, instead of the podcasts or music I usually listen to. But it struck me that I wouldn't have liked everyone on the tram to know that I had 'Desperado' by the Eagles on the go! In a world where my choice would have been public I definitely would have foregone the easy listening stuff for a more Music King worthy selection

                              The 'will Trump resign?' market went from 3s to 6s last week, after Mueller intervened.

                              It's really the 'do you think Mueller has a smoking gun big enough to take him down?' market so I might have a dabble and watch the swongs.

                              He'd want to be wrapping up sharpish though.

                                        Saw both The levellers and Billy Bragg there over the last few years. Nothing appealed to me this year. "Irish up" a take away coffee to keep the cold away.

                                        Seating is unreserved, so get in early and you may snag a pew.

                                            Great to see the stance Ulster rugby took on the Zebo issue. Very well played and sets a great precedent for any other numpties

                                                  Not sure if anyone else knew him IRL but sadly infrequent poster "Rasher" passed suddenly on Sunday. He leaves behind a 10 month old and 4 yr old. Shocking stuff. He was a great man, still can't get my head around it.

                                                    Only knew him from his infrequent Denmark related posting. That's terribly sad news.

                                                        I was given some in December, unlikely there will be any spare will let you know if there are.

                                                        The last year I missed getting some I found that face value ticket exchange site very good for them.

I haven’t seen the video (nor want to) so maybe it was a dashcam which is understandable, but FFS don’t share it. I think even the most normal of people have an unnatural fear of missing a video of something instead of just living through it and moving on.

I haven’t seen the video (nor want to) so maybe it was a dashcam which is understandable, but FFS don’t share it. I think even the most normal of people have an unnatural fear of missing a video of something instead of just living through it and moving on.
