They were probably for cats

I'd thought that most of our problems had been defensive this season, but hadn't realised how bad we've been at scoring. We could do with improving both obviously, but we're currently sixth equal for fewest goals conceded and fourth bottom for scoring. I guess aimless punts don't lead to many chances.

Not just the kit. Have you any idea how lucrative a voucher scheme can be to run? All those fees and data. Lovely. If tax can be funnelled to the wealth creators instead of depressed people we'll all be better off

Reddy for a grocers’ apostrophe. Disgusting

The most irritating tailgaters are those that combine it with lane hogging the middle lane. Three lane motorway and they’re flashing lights and gesticulating if you don’t pull into a 20 metre gap between Lorries or stay out at a junction, all while the fast lane is free. I like to throw things at them out of the. Window. Paint is good.

Grunge was definitely a thing, even if it was Arguably only really Bleach, some Mudhoney plus later imitators. Pearl Jam were as grunge as Bon Jovi though (and not nearly as good).

But there’s a list

Is that a common combination round your way?

Glad you’ve seen sense

Did “impotent “ touch a nerve big Bobo? I’ve always thought prematurity would be the issue with tailgaters but there we go,

No I don’t. I slow down and watch their impotent rage build in my rear view mirror.

I went on a speed awareness course and the official advice for dealing with tailgating is to slow down. They’re increasing the risk of a collision so all you can do is mitigate the severity by reducing the potential impact speed. plus it’s hilarious

British people should not be wearing baseball caps. We have a perfectly good system of flat caps, bowlers and top hats. Whatever next, stetsons?

It absolutely is privatisation. It's not a wholesale privatisation of a state corporation like a lot of Thatcher's giveaways were. But it's privatisation of infrastructure assets and a disproportionate amount of their economic benefits, while keeping the risks with the public. It was sold as a way to get scarce capital investment and to get private companies to bear risks. These were always bullshit. It would always have been cheaper for the government to borrow. Private companies would always be getting bail outs, subsidies and contractual protections. It was ideologically driven for some Tory backers and avarice/corruption driven for others. For Gordon Brown it was an opportunity to hide future spending commitments by keeping debt off the balance sheet. He also got to look all modern and cityish which he needed to do because if the terror that Middle England/Mail/ Express has about Labour. If Labour had come in and borrowed or taxed to fund a huge spending programme they'd have had their cards marked.

I always admired the Inspiral Carpets Cow t shirt but having bought and listened to the album was fairly keen to not be associated with them.

I’d Iron Maiden t shirts when I was 12-14 because they had cool pictures (seventh son of a seventh son was one I remember well, I think I had the Trooper too without any inkling that it had associations). I had my first proper girlfriend when I was 15 and had stopped wearing metal tees. Coincidence?

The Kaiju Preservation Society - John Scalzi. Proper no frills entertainment with monsters that have monsters. Could have done with more Kaiju action. Fairly throw-away plot and lots of in jokey irony, wisecracking action etc. If you like your sci fi profound and thought provoking then this probably isn't it. It's tremendous fun though.

Not quite sure what this unhinged dribble is actually saying is woke bit i think it's funny coloured flags, Keir Starmer's malignancy and cobblers. https://www.express.co.uk/comment/expresscomment/1884930/wokery-appeasement-disaster
