It begs the question why am I sending 10k to Kraken when I can't even get their log in screen to work, need to rethink life choices. Not to mention that they take 160 euro fee for using that.
Best day of work day, the appearance, the free bottles of wine/whiskey/champagne and then into town to meet my brothers and off for 3 weeks.Last edited by Tar.Aldarion; 22-12-17, 10:27.

Ben finds an idol. Rinse/repeat. I'm sceptical as to the placement of the idols/clues and even besides that I would have Chrissy's immunity wins as way more impressive than idol scavenger hunting.
Ben was unable to parlay all these idols into any sort of alliance. Couldn't get anyone (bar Devon on a self-preservation hunch) to switch their vote off of him. If he had managed to use an idol to move up the totem poll rather than dropping 'ben bombs' at tribal I would have a lot more respect for his play. His ben bombs ended up leaving him needing to find another idol immediately every time, and then he still needed a cheap trick by the production team to get him into the final.
I thought him agreeing with Devon's plan to pretend to be with the other crowd when they pulled the blind side back after the merge was a dreadful decision and would have cost any non-Murican hero vet the million because the people he was lying to would feel so fucked over by him.
A pity that what was shaping up to be a great season ended up in a car crash,
the last three or four episodes had barely a passing resemblance to the game as it used to be.
Someone on Reddit did up a 'tentative logo for season 37' which I think fairly encapsulates it.

Shearer a bollix but gtfo after that he was exceptional.
Bad PL era ? Are ye really making that point.
I remember Terry McDermot saying Keegans Newcastle would have beaten his Liverpool. He was right but by then the game was different.
Shearer was a scoring machine . Pity he hated Utd. Anyway if the genius of Berkamp escapes you , then yer footie posts should be judged as nonsense. NONSENSE I tell you.

He was clearly excellent but Serie A and la Liga got all the top foreign players when he was at his peak in England, wasn't until late 90's until the league began to be competitive on a European front again. Would be still in the shake up for that position but think Kane has more to his game than Alan had.Profit before people.

Sounds like a french specific process. I assume in France most identity docs have a signature on them? probably want to do a compare?This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

Not quite the exquisite magnificence of the sp super salami special last year though. Get that import business up and running!
So my thinking is, if you don't already have one, and actually want one, i'd be happy for you to have it. I'd rather see it being used than just sitting in a basement accumulating dust. I've had it for 17 years and it's never let me down, so if interested PM me and i'll put you in contact.

That seems to becoming a feature with rural deliveries where drivers will just drop off in local shops. I suppose the shops are allowing themselves to be used as a sort of cheap parcel motel as it brings you into the shopTurning millions into thousands

Originally posted by Raoul Duke III View PostThanks for the thought shrap - much appreciated. I think I wouldn't get enough use out of it though as it's very rare I buy something that needs a slicer! (like maybe once every two years).
Your remaining decent wine though....
There was just about enough room in the kitchen to fit the wine, although not much left.
Speaking of wines, went to hawksmoor last week, my friend brought a Cos D'estournel (St Estephe) 2004. pretty special.

You really should do the import thing though. I'd say your biggest problem would be keeping up with demand."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Coincidentally I only had my first high end donut yesterday. Promised someone I'd visit their shop, was a bit disappointed to find out they only do glazed ring donuts.Last edited by Denny Crane; 22-12-17, 14:59.
