@mariner4life we care because they have global reserve currency and despite its malaise their currency and their system is better than the alternative, i.e. China
5 eps into the final season (I think) of Killing Eve, first few eps were pretty ave and was contemplating bailing (too much Eve, not enough Villanelle) but has picked up again, so will see it out.
@Tim I get the impression that Mahuta’s goal isn’t so much better governance, or even a better deal for Māori people, as much as it is about establishing a ruling dynasty. Aotearoa’s own version of the Gandhi family.
Yeah, that was one of the most mild, run off the mill photos I've ever seen, with no detectable cleavage. That guy must get overly excited on a trip to New World, by the standard of his weird comment.
Tim Perry.. of all the players who had multiple starts for the Blues he was the worst. Second place is miles behind him. Think of all the crap players that played for the Blues over the decades Tim Perry was number one. Well done.
Managed to win three super rugby titles though!
Didn't really watch him at the blues but he was decent for the crusaders and ultimately managed to push crockett out of starting his last final.
Not to mention a fairytale end to his career winning the M10 Cup with the Mako in his final match.
Did anyone else find ep 2 almost too dark (colourwise, not content)?
Other than being set at night I didn’t notice…time for a new tv?
My tv is about a year old, so I could probably just adjust my brightness settings - I just assumed the final season GoT cinematographer was working on this.
I think it’s your TV mate, could see everything fine. That GoT episode they could have saved millions and just streamed audio.
Still hitting the gym 3 days a week and sneaking in one MTB ride. Not feeling super fit but prob just doing enough to manage the old stress relief and not die as an unfit fluffybunny
On Schmidt joining AB selection panel, and where it will take him, I have just finished Steve Hansen's book, he's pretty good mates with Schmidt. He talks of mentions how much trouble Schmidt was having with the pressure while coaching Ireland (had read that before) and though he was NZR's preferred choice to take AB's job he needed a break away. Hope he just takes it easy coming into whatever roles he does and builds from there.
@Kid-Chocolate actually I used to work for the owner of the winner (didn't back it though), folks on here who know racing might know how rich this farker is, but I had 26-1 on Dark Destroyer from a bet way back, I know the owners of this horse very well and was set for this, a soft track I think I may have had a huge day ..alas not to be
@canefan i'm trying to really play up the small mercies, gradman has no idea...so wont be upset...and if COVID accelerates her passing it might be a blessing
also...might actually get a cure out of her and nothing has killed her yet!
It's not for her, it's for your mum. But you are right about the older generation. Clearly at 95 she is a tough old bird
LOL first time ever I've had the 'this topic looks old' message on this thread. Over the last 6 months I would have been to the gym 3-4 times, including today! Alive and surviving but not exactly thriving. Especially on the exercise side of things.
We two-scooped C4 and trained for two hours. Hour of legs then the rest - was mean as to get that pump again. Arnie isn't wrong ha ha.
I will be ruined next week but it was worth it. My training bro is about to become a new dad, so we'll have to see how his life changes.
@majorrage has there been a problem with GPS or did they reach an agreement with the EU over the satelites?
Regards discrimination, most of my foreign pals are outside London (and some are far north England) so that may be a factor.
Talk on that has gone quiet since the deal was signed, so I suspect this was included in that.
No doubt location is a factor, but I should point out, I'm not in London.
It is not clear to me where I should place the link I wish to provide, or where to place any text I wish to add to it.
PS. Now I must apologise, this news was previously noted up the page - I did not check beyond the latest 17 hour old entry, believing the news that I saw was reported just this morning.
One thing TSF is terribly good at is straw man arguments.
It's entirely fine and proper to point out a player isn't up to Test rugby at that stage of their development. That doesn't rule out maturity and improvement. It certainly doesn't rule out criticism.
Again that's not the argument. It's when a player is ripped to shreds as being shit, not up to it etc. And again let's stop pretending nuance is a thing here.
Nuance is a thing everywhere. If only you can recognise/understand it.
And it's "balderdash".
Boulder Dash was a sweet little computer game.
Stick to reviewing shitty Movies. It's a much better use of your time.
You have already shown patience at a level above and beyond. Go back and chin the fluffybunny.
I normally leave that sort of thing to Mrs Meldrew
EDIT: Interesting to note that when I quoted your post with the word "fluffybunny" in it, it up with the anglo-saxon translation in the edit panel. Smart coding by @Kirwan & @Duluth .....?
I think that's part of the software, so it filters it in the display areas. Not surprised it's unfiltered in edit mode.
I'm currently reading the books. Got em on Kindle so it has merged all 5 books into one which physiologically makes it a tough as you don't feel like you are making much progress. Have got 69% of the way through.
They are freaking awesome though.
The detail on the houses the families is fucking amazing isn’t it.
New Zealand Test Cricket - 3000 or more test runs
