  1. Yep, glad that Suljovic won there. Smith winds me up for some reason - great to see him taking the huff. Head totally detached.

    The cameraman fair loves that netball team in the crowd.

  3. Just back from seeing The Strokes at Hyde Park last night. Been desperate to see them for years and they were absolutely phenomenal.

    .

    Aye, they were amazing. That was my eighth time seeing them and every single time been immense. Great set, first time I had heard Angles or Comedown Machine stuff live, so Under Cover of Darkness and One Way Trigger were my highlights.

  4. Swinney has been competent and can actually go beyond initial answers. Not a single vote will be lost during this, whilst the usual Britnat frothers will continue to mess their panties and cry "catastrophe".

    Breathe it in, we live in glorious, seethe filled times.

  5. Yeah, sucks to be you.

    Cheers Bro. I know, it's a nice problem to have but it is a genuine ballache - weighing up leaving an excellent job and life in London to move into the unknown, even if it is something I have been wanting to do for a while. Not even starting with how difficult it is to convince my missus, that's another story altogether.

    Bratislava is an incredible, wonderful city. It's beautiful, old, easy to get around and the people are lovely. That said, there isn't a lot to do in terms of leisure outside work. It's phenomenally cheap to live in, although maybe your salary will reflect that, I don't know. it's also really warm in summer and absolutely freezing in winter, which might not suit everyone but it's a nice contrast for us Scots IMO.

    The one thing that might put me off is the language is a right bugger. I mean, you'd need to really be good at picking up languages to even have a chance. Learning Spanish is a lot easier.

    Yeah, been a couple of times and love Bratislava. My salary wouldn't be a problem - it's a teaching role in a private school that pays near enough treble the average wage there. The Spanish job is in Galicia and I like the look of that too. Probably just toss a coin for it tbh.

  6. Went for Falkirk parkrun on Christmas day as Ive done pollok a few times and had never done Falkirk. A bit annoyed at my time as I'd cooled off in prep for the big hill they go on about at about 3-4k that actually wasnt that bad :/ so finished off with a quick last km. It was a really enjoyable course though, but quite busy (201 runners)

    Remember troops. parkrun double header on new years day - Strathclyde at 9 AM (or Pollok at 09:30) and Tollcross at 11AM, but all the cool kids are doing the Strathclyde/Tollcross combo. 8)

    Yeah, I will be doing both runs on New Years Day. First parkrun in ages as I have had a nightmare few months with knee trouble and only really got back running in last couple of weeks - will be happy doing 25 minutes in each one.

    Ran three miles yesterday just before lunch, was really nice as the streets were pretty deserted.

  7. Taylor might be a BEAST but that was incredible tonight. Kist played quite well! Great stuff from Bunty too but Anderson looked that horrible shitbag way he gets sometimes with absolutely no belief.

  8. Was at Sziget festival in Budapest a couple of weeks ago, absolutely incredible few days. The best sets were probably Manics, Miles Kane, INVSN, Outkast, Bastille, Fink, The Sexican, Imagine Dragons and The Prodigy.

    Going to see Broken Records at The Lexington in London on Thursday. Like the new album, even if it doesn't hit the heights of the first one. Should be good.

  9. Was at Fisher v Ramsgate in FA Cup qualifying yesterday. Cracker of a game, Ramsgate winning 4-2 with some fantastic goals and the best refereeing performance I have seen in a long time.

    Will probably be back, have developed a soft spot for the Fish and buying a membership to contribute to the running of a fully fan owned club.
