Darlo Uncovered

Just to let everyone know that my leg is fine, stitches coming out on Monday. Talk about Big Brother - someone suggests locking down both mine & AP's threads about Grimsby to Lincoln, and guess what, it's only mine that is locked, all because AP has the gall to ask me a question , to which I refuse...

Having done my distance, stamina and leg muscle training, I am just doing short rides in high gear, to keep in shape for Monday. Not a particularly great day today, windy and wet, but a taste of what's to come on Monday. One last fundraising push should get the figure up to £1k, which is 10 shares ...

You're having a laugh aren't you!!

Did the rest of my choices not give it away?

Radiohead - Exit Music
Nick Drake - Way to Blue
Nirvana - I Hate Myself and I Want to Die
Johnny Cash (or Nine Ince Nails) - Hurt
Leonard Cohen - Avalanche
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Weeping Song
Chas 'n' Dave - Rabbit

There are too many awful cover versions to mention. The Pixies' attempt at Winterlong is by no means among the worst of them, but I thought I'd bring it up seeing as somebody mentioned it as one of their favourite covers in the other thread. I like the Pixies, but I just find their version a bit bla...

Didn't Martin Smith once do something vaguely similar in the F.A. Cup?

Johnny Cash - Hurt
Johnny Cash - Mercy Seat
Television - Knockin' on Heaven's Door
The Chameleons - Tomorrow Never Knows
The Clash - Pressure Drop
Elliott Smith - Thirteen
Santana - Black Magic Woman
Graham Coxon - That's When I Reach for my Revolver
The Jam - David Watts
Radiohead - Ceremony

I really don't see what all the fuss is about - there is an obvious solution. A recent EU directive on intensive (battery) egg production led means the old battery cages should no longer be used - the hens can now have something slightly less tiny to live in - so lots of these cages are surplus to ...

Is anyone esle hearing interference that sounds a bit like someone trying to play slap bass over the radio feed?

My college at uni used to take advantage of this scheme to raise funds for events and so on; it can be very lucrative if you get a lot of people involved (I think my college raised somewhere in the region of £2,500 through this scheme for an event last year). Generally I think it's a good idea, alth...

Bdum tsh. I'm here all week.

More to the point, why was it working on a Sunday?

Are frogs Jewish?

Searched 'fandy' and came across this: Fandy, its you thats the useless tosser. The man who refused to sell raffle tickets for the supporters club when he was on the committee & yet wanted dropping off on his doorstep by the bus after an away game at the inconvenience of every other passenger :roll...

I saw a wasp just now. A wasp!

Does anybody have a van, some rope and some duct tape? If so, I think Houghton and Reynolds would be happy to help with this fundraising idea.

"I bought a cat called Bob."

Undoubtedly a highlight of the interview.

Having already posted this on another thread, you thought it was worthy of its own thread?

I had a telephone interview today. Probably didn't help that I somehow managed to hang up on the interviewer by mistake at the start of the interview. She didn't seem too offended though, so I should be ok.

Good luck for Wednesday.

I'm not buying shares until I can get a job sorted for September when I grow up and become a respectable tax-paying adult. I don't want to put £100 in now, then find I'm unemployed and need that £100!

Potentially buying shares in the next week or two, fingers crossed.

Part of the problem at Hillsborough was that the pitch was fenced, which stopped people escaping the crush. I don't think anybody builds stadiums like that any more in this country (quite common in some other countries though).

Writing coursework and riding about on a segway. Hopefully at the same time.

I have just written I long reply but.....haha OK. But 50k is not a large amount of money like...... Context, Ted. Context. £50k is all the Trust has, therefore it is a large amount of money. From where I'm sitting I can't see much of a reason not to chuck it into the pot, but then again I don't kno...

What a sad bunch. Real music is and always be proper Rock music. Noel Gallagher never was and never will be a proper musician.

I think Peter Barron has this sentence of predictive text on his phone. Every day he seems to tweet something like "appears things have moved forward but nothing certain", either that or " hearing discussions have stalled and interested pary have pulled out". I tweeted him back a couple of weeks ag...

One of the old Championship Managers (I think it was 01/02 or 02/03) was notorious for having bizarre things going on in the game. I had Taribo West banned for 6 months for punching a referee and went an entire season with Juventus without losing or drawing a match. I seem to remember there being a...
