Something I learned today which makes so much sense. In Belgium your annual salary is divided into 14 payments and you get double payments in June and December.

New one to me, how does that all work?

I don't watch much, just get the odd show from private cousins.

Find it slightly fascinating that a jury of 12 peers gets put under immediate time pressure, called back into the courtroom once or twice a day to ask if they've reached a verdict or are likely to do so.
Whilst a jury of 3 judges gets to state 'sure we'll be back in a couple of months lads'.

Maybe they have to write their verdict?

According to that bastion of good sense and rational reporting that is, er, the Irish Sun, that does seem to be the case.

GERRY “The Monk” Hutch’s murder trial will resume on Thursday – with just a few weeks of evidence remaining.

The three judges at the Special Criminal Court will then take approximately one month to deliver their verdicts in what is expected to be a lengthy written judgment.

Now let's meet Kelly, 18, a barmaid from Essex whose interests include wearing very little.

Trainer has a 50% strike rate this season (5 from 10) - never heard of him but must have a decent clue. Although I can't back it on principle.

Lowry and Bo broke up today.

Interesting to see if he has a big caddy or someone lined up. The brother will probably jump in for an event or two.

loads of online chemists already exist in the UK and all repeat prescriptions can be delivered straight to your door on a weekly, monthly basis.

Went into that Chemist Warehouse place on Henry Street in the run up to Christmas and my monthly prescription which is normally €147 came out at €104. That was for the brand names too, no generic replacements.

The business model for local chemists is on its last legs.

WHen the mask regulations were introduced I bought some from a local chemist. They had a sign on the door with "3 masks for €5.00" (it may not have been €5 can't remember exactly) She popped 3 masks without any protective packaging into a brown paper bag! So they were breaking down bigger packs obviously and coughing all over them
Haven't used them since

Dont know if its mentioned but the 1st Episode-120 mins of this is FREE on youtube . The last of us .

I was disappointed this isn't on Netflix. Afraid to watch that free episode as I'll probably then have to subscribe to whatever it's on ...more dollars per month

[Opr]

Those of you on The Last Of Us buzz (which has been incredible and I suspect will go down as the show of the decade - the latest ep was brilliant and totally not at all what I expected)

I actually turned the first episode off halfway through when it first aired a few weeks ago. I didn't know what it was going to be about but once I realized I just thought the genre had been done to death and was tired of the never-ending steaming pile of crap that has been churned out around it. The lack of much else worth watching at the moment and the acclaim this episode is getting made me go back and give it another go. Certainly glad I did. Such a good episode of television.

It’s on now tv check bargain alerts on boards always deals going for entertainment pack which prob has best quality selection of all the streaming companies (all the hbo shows)
currently on a3e a month for 6 months deal myself

[MysteryGuest]

Netflix is absolutel trash

thinking MUBI might be worth a look for movies mix of classic and new releases not a marvel movie to be seen
they have Aftersun already and loads of stuff you’ll never see on Netflix and the rest

[limpwhacker]

A few things. Highlights were one horse improved 61 pounds according to the handicapper. Backed from 20s to 6/4 and won. His mates sons laid it not to be placed in its previous runs and lumped on when it won. An old fashioned stroke really. Landed a gamble with another one as well. He also had a few of his horses in another trainer's name. Bit naughty but hardly worthy of taking away his livelihood for 12 years.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but is it(the ban) not to disencourage others

Fantasy football and the Premier league app would have the basics. Whoscored is another popular site.

Anything in depth or beyond the norm I'm sure there's 1 or 2 in the professional stats/data

What stats are you looking for?

When did you stop signing off your posts? Did I miss that?

Was a great episode with some excellent acting and the fact it could be totally standalone might piss people off but they are wrong imo. I was glued to it and it was awesomely well done.

[coillcam]

Ah I just wanted to se if Joao Cancelos drop off is as real as reported.

Pep is ruthless. Out the gap. He was the best full back in the league at the start of the season. Rumoured to be disruptive behind the scenes.

Conte just as ruthless. Doherty goneski too. Although they agreed to release him because they had too many players shipped out on loan. Too many full backs too. Thought there was an issue with joining Atleti Madrid but just saw it was confirmed. Interesting to see if he gets much game time under Simeone

[coillcam]

Never mind the above. I just saw he did end up moving to Atleti Madrid. Assumed it had fallen through and he was released to get a chance to join another club.

Funnily enough spurs had too many players out on loan so he had to be sold or released.

It filled in the back story of how the world was destroyed, what to expect from the govt and set out the theme’s for Joel and Ellie.

it could be standalone and could have made a good film but it was also really important to setting up the emotional stakes for the rest of the season.

Strange one as he's been starting pretty regular even sice the WC. Hope it works out for him.

[Dice75]

I see the Irish lad who won the Bonnington Platinum Pass still rocking a decent stack after Day 2 in Bahamas with 250 players left, $4m to shoot for. Good luck to him. Was Denny Crane on that FT too or did I imagine that?

[Denny Crane]

Yeah he was good. Ran over the tournament for the last few tables.

I think it's something he stopped doing a couple of years ago at this point. From memory it was just a habit and he decided to stop.

Dunno. Was looking at some update link. Could be wrong. Thought I read earlier that 256 were paid and there's only 250 left now.

unless I was looking at the completely wrong updates which is likely

[Pat Mustard]

Accepted new job offer today. Job hunt not as painful as accepted, 3 weeks in total. Hybrid working available, no uplift though, but I suppose that's to be expected in the public sector.

I’ll play the Fri or Sat, I’m not sure which Day 1 yet.

Bubbled a seat for it the other night and went close to deepstack seat a few nights before that.

I planned to go to Galway but can’t go to everything so I decided that given the 300e ACOP has a similar structure to the ME in Galway and the deepstack is significantly deeper that I’d skip Galway and play the two weekends in a row in Feb.

Yeah, won a satellite for it. Haven't managed a deepstack ticket yet but only played 2 satts. Hopefully bink one over the next few weeks.
