Would be very likely back in 2013 when we were promoted. I can't recall of any particularly good run since then, except from perhaps one season when we won a couple of friendlies and then every league cup group game. I'll be absolutely amazed if we win our next three games let alone seven.

Definitely people stealing dogs and not just a cyclist and someone walking through the park.

Absolutely this for me as well. I feel like he's terrified of an injury prior to a play off scenario, but I feel like it's a gamble not to field a consistent team at the moment. On the plus side, Clyde have played 4 games in 10 days, with a further 2 games this week. That's a lot for even professional players.

Makes sense with some of posters on here past and present.

Close enough, it is public sector and has reminded me why I usually avoid it. I think the response I got to questioning lunchtime meetings was "ah it's ok just go on mute and eat lunch, it should be limited input required" I can assure you I'll limit my input m9. The most useful meetings I've ever had are the ones that are like "fancy a quick 15 mins to chat this over." I can't believe people will expect c***s to sit through an hour long meeting, no one has the capacity to concentrate that long.

I've never had any issues in pubs on the sub crawl, which I guess is weird as you're going in with a fairly large group of usually a mixed crowd by the time everyone's "other mates" have tagged along. I think certainly pubs and clientele have grown used to the sub crawl now and are slightly more tolerant (don't hate everyone) Is the P&B Sub crawl still a regular thing?

Book in "Focus time" or "[Insert project name] time" It's mental, but my old team had to do this to avoid basically attending meetings all day. I've since stolen it in my current contract as they love a meeting packed day, f**k knows how they get any actual work done, talk about doing work a lot though. I've had to resort to private meeting a lunch hour every day because c***s can't seem to comprehend the basic human need to eat/drink.

Arguably our toughest fixture when the remaining games were released, East Fife are comfortably the best team playing at home in the whole league. Given how pish we've been, we'll be lucky to get a point. Can't believe East Fife are 2/1 at home on B365 against us, well worth a punt at that. Unless Tiffoney starts and McCall stops fucking about with the defence I think this will be grim.

April Fool's day stuff is absolute yer da' patter.

Me and my mates were discussing an incident that happened in secondary school the other night, so thought I'd share this. So it was nearing the end of term in 3rd year, me and some of the lads bored at lunchtime decided lets lob some bog rolls out the toilet windows on the 2nd floor (hilarious I know) a bit of a trend that started for some reason. Anyway before we got to this, the whole thing was interrupted by the discovery of "the biggest jobby in the world" naturally we were all eager to witness this. I can confirm it was massive and still to this day the biggest I've ever seen, it was breached and touching the sides. We were pissing ourselves laughing at the sheer enormity of it. Pretty soon this attracted the attention of an assistant head walking by, despite our strong recommendation to view said jobby he declined and the lads who hadn't went to spread the word sent to his office along the corridor, never really understood the reason for this. Anyway he left, assuming to seek out the poor janitor to deal with this. Me and the lads started texting other mates, by the time he came back there was a rather large and surprisingly orderly queue of pupils formed all the way down the stairs to view this fucking monstrosity! He just looked at the queue and then the three of us barely able to contain our laughter, sighed and tried to start ushering people away. I'm guessing this wasn't why he got in to teaching. By the time we were able to leave the poor janny had just gone in with a plunger and all we heard was "oh Jesus Christ!" Anyway, sadly we never found the culprit, but the good money was on a rather large physics teacher.

She's 100% worn that as sex attire for him at some point.

The "I had to do X to catch up with you" is often the party line. It is laughable to use it, it's entirely up to them what speed they chose to do to catch someone. Not that I'd doubt your story but if that happened word for word that's absolutely shambolic. In my experience 10mph over or even more, most regular police (not traffics) really don't care provided you're not being a c**t about it. Although would probably depend on age and what you were driving as well.

I undertook the police on the M74 while speeding many years ago (unmarked Audi) they'd pulled out and decided to hog the outside lane. Thinking it was your standard Audi w****r, I got impatient, subtly pulled in and eased past, pulled back out again further along and planted it. I glanced back and the Audi had kept a specific 2/3 sec gap after I sped up, I knew then it was the police by now and I genuinely thought I'd fucked it given the speed. Anyway I started changing lanes as I was approaching my junction, they followed my every move, followed me off the slip and stopped right next to me at the traffic lights, I could feel the glare from the driver as he rolled the window down. He enquired as to whether I had any points already, to which I answered no, he then simply informed me not to undertake as you never know who it could be. Judging by age, attire and attitude he was probably a detective or something and didn't give a f**k. Another story if it was traffics.

League position definitely seems to confirm that.

If you bin the sultanas then aye, it's actually quite nice. Chicken and sultanas really do not go.

Something to do with having a small penis is probably the reason. I hate this so much. Particularly on A / B roads interspersed with 30mph zones for small villages. If you get stuck behind a constant 40mph vehicle with a lack of safe overtaking opportunities for them to then continue at 40mph when they hit said small village really irritates me. I think the fact that they probably think they are an incredibly safe driver, for driving under the speed limit almost everywhere except 30 zones really angers me as well.

ASI Global Ethical Equity is a decent established fund, but I don't have any as it's too much overlap with it's holdings and my other funds. Baillie Gifford Responsible Global Equity is one I got into last year, fairly new fund that's been doing fairly well.

I've definitely found myself off down a rabbit whole googling random shite in lockdown. I guess it's a time to maybe learn things I've always kind of wondered about.

I feel like the last tooth should be the one that goes up in monetary value. At this rate the tooth fairy will be writing IOUs for the wee one, haven't paid for anything in cash for about a year and all the pound coins have gone to delivery driver tips.

What's the going rate for a tooth these days? When I was younger used to get a £1, I've heard kids getting fivers now. Some inflation rate.

Take a look at the likes of Interactive Investor and Hargreaves, people will tell you Hargreaves have higher charges, doesn't mean you need to invest with them to use their research though, which is usually pretty good. Take a look at index funds, a lot of them out there that have been performing steadily now for many years. It's hard to gauge a right time to invest now, markets have been a little volatile again recently. I tend to keep an eye out for dips and sometimes re-invest larger lump sums. It's worked so far for me, I'm no expert though. Also, make use of ISA allowances.

Tell them you'll just return the car, it's amazing how they manage to find things then. Also, I kept the manual from my old car, but only because it was being scrapped and I'd owned it for near 15 years and was very fond of it. Yes I'm aware that still makes me a weirdo.

This crushes my soul, in 2010 I worked for a tech company and the lads I worked with discussed at length investing in Bitcoin and we all dismissed it as a short lived fad. Honestly haunts me I never just punted a couple of hundred it's way just on the off chance. I'm now doing that with other crypto, more hope than anything. I'm uncomfortably weighted in favour of US Tech companies, it's paying off massively, but when I speak to wealth managers about it, they all say they wouldn't be doing it long term. But then never conclude what long term is. They don't know, no one does.

Thanks for that, I attended a wealth management zoom meeting at the tail of last year and EIS came up, but not a lot of info on where to go about looking. Would hate to just pluck one with limited research. The big upside for me is the tax benefits, even if it only returned a small percentage it would be well worth it, so looking for a relatively safe bet, if there is such a thing.

I hope you got into ADA before the recent run, I think I'm around 200% ROI at the moment, very tempting to dump it, but I'm staying in. Very keen to try EIS as it would really suit my current circumstances, did you find yours online and did you do much research yourself?
