  1. I heard a story about Churchill. One night in Winter at 2pm he was in the War rooms pouring over his plans for the D Day offensive and one his Military guards came in to report that one of Churchills own personal bodyguards had been caught in St.James Park in a compromising position with another man. ‘This is very serious Mr.Churchill. Neither was clothed from the waist down. Highly irregular and illegal. What do you want me to do?’ the Guard said. “In the park in bloody Winter?, said Winston. What temperature is it out there?” “10 degrees below freezing Sir”. ”10 degrees below, you say? Hmmm. Makes you proud to be British!” “Carry on”.
  2. Always been interested in the Enigma machine/codebreakers story so we went down to visit and learn more Bletchley Park. I’d certainly recommend it but I bought the Alan Turin, the Enigma book. Fantastic story though which ends in a very sad way, unfortunately, but it’s been bloody hard reading!
  3. Missed out on half back signings closed season. Hookem is a case that has puzzled me. England academy representative half back who is on his 6th club at 21 years of age. We have to back these kids and take the pain of waiting for them to mature.
  4. Litten has been left out for confidence reasons once but otherwise has been either 18th man or injured.
  5. Would seem a shame if the Panel have either no report from the Ref or deign to look into an event where one of France’s future stars gets sidelined for months. Do we have any intrepid journalists Lee? From what I can see, there are few that venture very far away from Twitter/X or the Moles channel 9 reports.
  6. Oppenheimer. Got to say, unless you are really interested in all the shadows surrounding his life and the fears of the US government, it is not gripping. Well made, well acted but not enjoyable for us. 5/10.
  7. I’ve enough experience in the game to know what is illegal John, however, we do not even know if this incident was reviewed. It could well be that this tackle (btw could be ligaments, operation and months out) wasn’t even considered due to ignorance.
  8. The DP also leaves themselves open to criticism by not clearly publishing their report on what was investigated. One instance was, to me, an obvious hip drop on Lacans for Fev v Leigh where 16 (Halton I think). Lacans was taken off and is still injured I believe. Lack of transparency and focus on fouls imo
  9. Yes, and I have some in the shape of a Dragon.
  10. Not sure they do them now. I have some older ones but if you look on Ebay, there are similar on there.
  11. I find it it hard to believe that it’s been reviewed and they found no case to answer. 41st minute.
