On the basis of your discrediting of 538, Rasmussen ought to be even further discredited - this is obvious.Last edited by Keane; 17-04-18, 10:56.

Wonder which way they are going with Maggie, not too sure on it and she kind of went down in my estimation there. Wasn't too bad an episode. I liked how the bullets failed and didn't expect that at all!

I doubt people will change their mind but the undecided voters are most likely people who haven’t considered it much and won’t show up.
The reason I think it will be closer than same sex is most people have gay mates who will say that it’s something they want on an individual basis. Not so many casually talking about abortion with friends as something they want to improve their lives. The same sex vote had a lot of sure let them at it if they want type votes but this won’t.
Glad the polls are so one sided as the inevitable narrowing should still see ancomfortable margin. Except in donegal and Roscommon of course.

I guess we will be mainly looking to stay in lively towns but stuff like the Calanques you linked above is exactly what I'm looking for for during the day. It's been added to the list.
Girona looks decent too depending on which route we take.

I read somewhere before that I think it was the LA times or another Westcoast newspaper was the only major publication in the US that saw Trump winning.
I think Nate Silver has a pretty solid track record of prediction both in sport and in the political sphere. 538 is one of my go to sites for all sport related probabilities, their models are great.
Concluding that someone loses their credibility because they didn't envisage Trump winning is ridiculous. I believe his projections from 2008 pretty much solidify that from a relative perspective his projections are excellent.

if you like the mountains, you could go via le pic du midi, and then down into Lourdes .
Les callanques, as trippie mentioned are amazing, but be mindful that most spots on the coast from Marseille to Monaco, are packed in the summer.
Plenty of short spots for visits along the way also.

SPOILERThe bullets failing was predictable, it was a big part of the show so something was brewing. Negan didn’t deserve to live. Maggie got it right. He bashed in the skull of her husband in front of her WTF How can she feel otherwise? Would you forgive if it was Tony ? (would you move on with an older good looking man –an aside) Negan as a character was brilliant but no way should he have been allowed to live. The letters left me cold. Why couldn’t he just die and let me have my bloodbath?

Well for some, even though I go every year I wait until after Xmas to book flights to ensure I pay about 200 for them. Next year I'll changeairport, lol

interesting:
The Southern District team can’t bring Trump to trial while he is president. But if it finds evidence of felonies involving Trump, the team could name him as an unindicted co-conspirator in charges against Cohen. That would tell the world that the president is a crook. It would put substantial pressure on Congress to impeach Trump. And, after Trump’s presidency ends, whether at the end of his term or before, a criminal prosecution could await. The prospect of a trial would loom over whatever time in the presidency he has left"We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

The Walking Dead season finale -
SPOILERIt's become crazy predictable and it's totally gone off the boil as a show, it's not really doing anything new and it's just going in circles with people, Negan was dragged out over two seasons and ultimately it was a pretty big let down, it's not go to the level of me hate watching it like Dexter but I barely seen anything to do with it and normally I get to a season finale asap but I didn't bother watching it till this afternoon.
No good show can go on forever, and even if a show starts out fresh and interesting, it will lose steam if it stays on the air for too long. The Walking Dead...

SPOILERIn the comics this is what happened to Negan, so the show is sticking with that. I think I just like the other side of Negan. Yes he was a cunt with what he did to Glenn, but she is gonna be banging that young fella soon enough On the older goodlooking Tony replacement. Are you talking about Negan You are a hard man William, those letters were great. Brought a tear to this hard-faced bitch!

Onebis my one, two others PC via google chrome. It displays the IP address for these connections.
What exactly is that IP address?

Hitch has got the game buying bug in me, picked up a classic (pandemic and it's expansion) where you travel the world stopping diseases, as well as deception, murder in hong kong, a game up to 12 players where you one of you is a murderer and the rest have to solve it, a short 20 minute party game that is great. All three for €45 so that's pretty good. Also considering picking up camel up and it's expansion for €30, a game where you race camels and bet on it, as I can't take part in any of RD's competitions I'll have my own
