A colleague of mine (Aberdonian) takes his dirty washing out to the rigs to save him running a wash at home.
I'd say "spare a thought for the security bag searchers at the heliport", but that would only encourage him (and many others).
Netanyahu and his missus used to take at least 2 full suitcases of dirty clothes each when they got invited to stay at the Whitehouse so they could get everything washed and nicely pressed by the staff. Apparently they took 11 suitcases for a one night stay in Portugal.

Sorry for being thick but why do people consider Fraserburgh favourites when Brechin have three points and a (slightly) better GD? I presume the combination of momentum from the 4-2 the other week and the fact that playing Strathspey twice is a given six points and considerable +GD?
I think it's just Buckie and Brechin stumbling just as Fraserburgh are getting unbeatable. I'd still put Brechin as favourites though.

Shocking seasons for Clach and Forres, Forres actually bodied Clach 4-1 about a month ago, which shows how poor a side Clach are. This is undoubtedly their worst squad for as long as I can remember, possibly ever.
Clach don't bother getting out of bed for minnows like Forres and Grantown FC.
Anyway, on an end of season roll..

Golspie certainly aren't interested in promotion, nice bit of income being able to rent out their ground to Brora this season though.

I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
Three young guys part of a burglary gang were being chased by gardai and died in a fireball driving into a truck on the wrong side of a dual carriageway.
Apparently the chase is meant to be called off if this happens but the garda kept going.
Their funerals were arranged by a directors who specialise in scumbag sendoffs. The videos are something else.

The memorials that their families had left at the site have been vandalised multiple times.

Shares in Truth Social have dropped to mid thirties from a peak of 79 dollars. If they drop below £17.50 for one day between now and April 26th, Trump loses out on a 36 million share bonus from an "earnout" provision, here's hoping.

Reminder that Nobel disease is a thing
I'm convinced.
QuoteKary Mullis won the 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for development of the polymerase chain reaction. Mullis disagreed with the scientifically accepted view that AIDS is caused by HIV, claiming that the virus is barely detectable in people with the disease. He also expressed doubt in the evidence for human-caused climate change. In his autobiography, Mullis professed a belief in astrology and wrote about an encounter with a fluorescent, talking raccoon that he suggested might have been an extraterrestrial alien.

Did you get the Bahn25 trial card?
Looks worth it just for that return journey if he hasn't, the alternatives to a fast train sound horrible.

I just bought the DB pass but unfortunately it would not let me buy one in mates name and he is on holiday with sh!tty Internet connection so have to wait until he gets home.
It looks like we will only need a train to Cologne from Stuttgart and returning to Stuttgart next day. But prices for us two on train are mental.
A Flixbus Stuttgart-Munich is only £16 with your seat booked!
So if anybody has two seats going Stuttgart-Cologne and either returning after game or next day we would be interested. DM me.if
What kind of DB pass have you got? I did see you can get Flix tickets from Stuttgart airport to Cologne airport and back for a reasonable price, don't know what getting to and from the airports is like and the ones I saw were very early in the morning. Also some from Kornwestheim near Stuttgart. Don't know if splitting train tickets would be cheaper, say Stuttgart -Frankfurt-Cologne, or if you could do the whole journey by connecting regional trains. I see there are still loads of the match ticket holders discounted tickets going, maybe worth waiting to see if the Fans Pass is actually checked or if you could get away with a screenshot.

I'd far sooner just pay for beer in a beer garden with a big outside telly, pubs that have one will rake it in.

Buckie now scheduled for Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, Monday, Wednesday, Saturday to finish on April 20th. Brora keep playing till April 27th presumably because they've no chance of being champions.

Add Loch Ness to the list of teams that couldn’t raise a squad to fulfill a fixture. And we’re supposed to take this league seriously as part of the pyramid
Doesn't affect the pyramid with their Champion already declared, f**k knows when that will happen in the Midland and Highland Leagues.

Brora (at Golspie), Clach, Rothes and Keith home games postponed so far, inspection due at Fraserburgh, probably more incoming. Check FitbaNorth and Twitter before heading out.

The latest episode was really poor.
What happened to Steve Buscemi? He has aged 100 years.
I loved it, feel guilty about dissing Richard Lewis now. Buscemi was obviously playing a sick old guy who might need a colestemy bag.

Must be "reaching out" to their American fans with that apology...
Fort William certainly, Orkney have never managed to get the hipster fandom for being 'the worst team in the world', and Fort have probably blown it by being solidly mid table since they arrived in the North Caley.

Did all the teams actually think the season would be done in march and only signed players till then?
Or has everyone on an ammy contract chucked it to go n play in the summer leagues?
I don't think most of the summer leagues have got going yet so I doubt that's the reason, I remember Orkney pulled out of one of the cups because the players were more keen on an Island 7s tournament though, so who knows. The North Caley will have to give out serious penalties or you could see more clubs not bothering to turn up for meaningless end of season games, especially when there's a load of travel involved.

Orkney copy Fort William by being unable to raise a team, for Golspie away in their case.

I’m seeing a few comments on Facebook just now about weather modifiction and ‘geoengineered weather’. I suspect it’s cause it’s been raining so often in Scotland.
What’s that all about?
Part of me wishes it was true. Then there would be a solution; kill the c***s.

Hunt describing Wragg as ‘courageous’ really is deflection that the MSM are only to happy to run with.
Aye, he only fessed up after the Times doorstepped him about it.
