Is this a political thread? Because I am banned from that. It tells me I need to post 100 comments, which I have.

Well it takes away the 20 minutes the News devotes to the daily Coronavirus depressing BS.

I was watching Quest, here in the UK, and the blanked the adverts and said there is an important news bulletin on BBC News, I have never seen a blatant channel diversion like this so I turned over. I am not a Royalist, in fact I have said before on here I am a Republican, but my thoughts got out to the Queen and her Family.

I recently, because of circumstances, have been in touch with a local charity, trying to help rehouse me, and they arranged food boxes to be delivered to my door, they have included 3x Pataks Tikka Masarla 3 part curry kits. 4x 750g boxes of Kellogs Corn Flakes, 8 litres of UHT milk (4x 2l), 18 eggs, 10 tins of Baked beans, loads of pasta, tomato sauce, 120 tea bags probably as much Custard Creams, etc, etc., in 4 deliveries. I love free food, but I have nowhere to store it. When they rang me up on Monday, asking when I wanted my next delivery, I politely asked them to hold it. Some of it was well below the sell by date, some +/- a couple of days, and some, like some of the eggs, well beyond. I wouldn't even trust some of the eggs to my ex-wife. I did get a shed load of those bake-at-home baguettes that I like, although, where do I store them?

I lifted the crust on one of their "Increased Meat" Chicken Pies last month, and found two thumb sized bits of chicken. I too used to think these were a treat, along with Pot Noodles, and Vesta meals.

Has anyone opened a tinned Frey Bentos pie, and taken the crust off, and examined just how little meat is under there? It is pitiful.

I thought it already had been an archive channel for years, as nothing new seems to appear, and the last 12 months has also infiltrated BBC 1&2, especially as they are forced into showing Reggie Perrin & Fawlty Towers at peak times on BBC1, we will be seeing the Wombles soon, Cbeebies haven't shown anything new for 15 years, because by the time the kids grow out of Mr Tumble, and Tellytubbies, a new group are experiencing them for the first time. BBC4: Fred Dibnah & The Joy of Painting? Oh, come on, is that why we avoid the license fee?

I watched "Kingsman: The Golden Circle" last night, I really enjoyed the first one, and I have kept missing the second one for various reasons, but I made an effort last night, it's just a shame the script writers didn't. The one thing I did find funny was the reprise of the Charley character who is a bad guy, who has the same surname as someone very close to me.

When will we get an equivalent RL Manager game?

I am sure there are people who have got Football Manager on their machine. The simplest cheat I can find is Save the game, before playing the match, and if you don't win re-load the game, re-jig the team, or team-talk, or tactics, and play it again. I have done this a couple of times on FM21, and currently sit 2nd in the table. (I am not telling who I am managing)

Nicola Sturgeon has just announced that Scotland has vaccinated more people than exist in Scotland, if you subtract the 200 million who have died in Scotland, which is 100 times the population.

Saw the Jackie Charlton film on BBC2 tonight, and thought it was rubbish, he was better than that.

The council have just rang me back. They had received it, but they have had to send it back to me because the Doctor had not put the practice stamp on the form.

My concessionary bus pass expires on Monday 29th March, In January I had an application through from the County Council, which I filled in, and passed to my GP to sign and stamp it, I also enclosed a stamped addressed envelope for them to post it off. The County Council have declared they have not yet received it. My GP Surgery is probably the worst performing surgey during Covid, they were not very good before, now they are even worse, they recently sent a Covid Vaccination appointment to my 82 year old neighbour, even though he died in August 2020.

Or can anyone else take the p***?

Racing Driver Johnny Dumfries, 62, AKA John Crichton-Stuart, 7th Marquess of Bute, had a season in F1, in 1986, as second driver to Ayrton Senna, and won Le Mans in 1988.

So much cooler than the Blues Brothers version

Don't quite think I am ready for the acting in Series 2 yet. The terrain is amazing, but the acting is poor.

My wallet is sheilded, but the bus pass flap on my last one wasn't, so I transferred the flap to my new wallet. Works perfectly.

Went into town today, and bought 2x Lamb Samosas. One for there and then, one for breakfast tomorrow. As I was crossing the road outside the *closed* Odeon, I got dive-bombed by a seagull and had half of the samosa ripped from my hands, I managed to punch it but it still got half my samosa. Cheeky F***er.
