I've never seen a live super league game.

Neither have I. I've also technically never seen a live NRL game. I saw plenty of live NSWRL and ARL games but not NRL

I've finally tired the kitten out, she's panting away after half an hour of chasing a laser dot around the house.  My feet might get away without being used as chew toys tonight.

Here is an alternative to playing with and then being pestered by the cooking fat. Why don't you ask Futtocks for a recipe?

I've had enough of broad beans. Other pulses are ok. But broad beans have had it

I'm several decades ahead of you on that count. Never could stand them.

Butter beans are okay though; it's a texture thing.

I'm having a completely rugby league free 2018. Bulls, SL, Cup, internationals, forums, scores. Stepping away from them all. I've just had enough.

Bulls have had a RL free couple of seasons.

Hello everyone, using my local free internet cafe, AKA my ex's living room.

How is everyone?

I have moved into a new seafront flat, and have 2 job offers provisional on my DBS, if offered I may take both as they are only 20hrs per week.

My alcohol intake is down to double digit units per week, mainly because I can't afford it.

Welcome back, Bleep. Good luck.

over 35 years later music still seems to be alive and vibrant contrary to the claim in the late 70s and early 80s that home taping was killing it.

It isn't exactly a financial pleasure for the people who actually make the music.

Pandora played "Eight Miles High" 228086 times in the second quarter of 2016 and paid me $1.79

in fact how many bands got famous by sending a tape in - from that era - home taping their own music to send to promoters

That's not the "home taping" the record companies were talking about, quite clearly.

Sophistry. You can't really fit that sort of detail into a slogan, without making it less of a slogan.

And musicians are making less per play today than back then. Where's the incentive to create, record and release, without Simon Cowell-level money behind you?

i still think with that slogan they were more bothered about their own profits rather than artists being unable to flourish
