    Link?

    A few people have probably already seen it. It was the end of that game where a couple of goals were scored in the last minute and one was kicked off the line.

    Does anyone know the sorts of figures you might look to get paid for having a video that went 'viral'?

    I think we probably missed the boat with it having published it and letting a few companies use it with our permission but then some licencing company offered to help out and manage it for us. They have been very reluctant to tell us what the video is likely to earn so I was wondering if anyone here has had anything like that happen for them?

    It's had about 250,000 views on Youtube (via a few different channels, not just ours), probably something like 10 million views on Twitter and 10 million views on Facebook too. Am I right in thinking you don't get paid anything for stuff that's just been viewed on Facebook and Twitter? Again, these weren't views from our actual page, different companies just lifted the video and stuck in 'credit to...' and used it - the vast majority didn't ask permission but I suppose it doesn't matter if they got permission or not?

    I was sat with a couple of Taylor's 'best mates' last night. They were actually decent guys. Said he had to give £1.1 million to his ex wife when they broke up. It was a bit weird sat next to them - they were the ones Phil was pointing at and taking to when he came back on the stage during the break.

    La Liga / Copa Del Rey Ole

    I don't watch too much Spanish football but it's no surprise that Barca and Madrid score shit loads of goals if the defences of the teams down the bottom are as bad as Osasuna's this evening. Barca players are bringing the ball down on their chest from a corner in Osasuna's six yard box!

    I've struck a deal with someone in America over an item that I wish to purchase from them.

    What's the best way for me to make payment to them? Normally over here I just do it the way of getting an account number and a sort code and send the money straight across to them. Is that possible to do for someone over there? If so, how does it convert? I just work out what it is in $ and send the £? eg. if it was $100 I send £80 and it converts itself somehow??

    Or does none of that work and I need to do it through something like paypal? I have never used that before!

    Was there in 2015. Loved it.

    I'm based in Lancashire so this is an easy one to get to for me.

    I've been a few times to earlier rounds but never a final. I have a feeling that this one will be Taylor's last ever major final (he'll probably be dumped out first round now I've said that!).

    Never been to the world championships but the crowds look fucking unbearable.

    They actually put me off watching the games a bit these days.

    I've been to Blackpool a couple of times and stopped going there because of the crowds.

    Frankfurt was alright in the summer for the World Cup. I might go to that again.

    Funeral shenanigans

    in The General Nonsense Forum

    Posted

    I once thought I was gonna get a beating after a funeral.

    It was my old girlfriends grandma's funeral. We'd gone round to the ex's mum's the night before to sort a couple of bits out and ended up having a few beers. I was a bit bored while they were telling stories of the old hag so passed the time getting stuck into a bottle of whisky.

    I was rough as f**k at the church the following morning and struggling just sitting down. The service appeared to be drawing to a close and all I could think of was having a glass of water in the pub once it's done to try and ease my pain.

    I was just awaiting 'My Way' or something similar to belt out then we could go but the vicar asked us to stand to sing another hymn. The second he said it without thinking I muttered a little too loudly "oh for fucks sake" followed by a massive sigh. Pretty much everyone on the two rows in front of me turned round and glared at me. I was quite ashamed and mimed my way through what felt like a 25 minute hymn then we got to leave.

    Once we got outside the church my ex's mum's fella advised me to 'stay the f**k away' from the burial plot.

    I happily would have done but I wasn't sure how it'd go down with the girlfriend so I went but just lingered well away from the casket and even further away from the pissed off step dad.

    I skulked about at the wake for around half an hour afterwards just chatting to the old dears there as I assumed I'd be safe near them and no harm could come to me being in their presence.

    I escaped unscathed but I never did see the girlfriends parents again after it. We broke up a couple of weeks later.
