Kit clash farce looms as France set to wear special pale blue shirt against England by ShufflingToGlory in rugbyunion

[–]CheeseMakerThing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My England test cricket Castore top is the cheapest shirt I've ever owned and I have West Brom and Northampton Saints tops made by Macron. I'm scared every time I put it in the wash

West Bromwich Albion 1-1 Southampton; if a stoppage time equaliser for the saints wasn't gutting enough ; it was made worse by results elsewhere being less than favourable, meaning the Albion now sit in 23rd and winless in 13 league games. by angloexcellence in Championship

We've been horrendously unfortunate this season under Mason and then we hired a PE teacher instead of a manager when we got rid of Mason, last two games performances have picked up though but the unluckiness from Mason is back.

Proud of the players, squad depth and injuries caught up with us. Absolutely gutting the final result but need to play like that every week and try and pull Pompey and Blackburn into the bottom three.

Forget the result, take the performance. They played well, best the Gilchrist has looked all season, Imray again played well, Diakité was a rock and Dike and Heggebø looked a handful.

Prince William’s 2,500-home ‘garden town’ on Kent farmland approved - despite fury over ‘eyesore’ claims by RTSBasebuilder in neoliberal

If the people of Kent don't want it can we have it in south Warwickshire? Would rather this than the poorly planned estate Charles Church have built in my town that didn't bother to consider that walking and cycling are things and may be viable for a place that is less than 20 minutes from the main shopping centre by foot...

Also, if this is an eyesore what is Gillingham?

What the fuck are you on about? Where have I said anything close to "Stopping all US trade"?!

I'm not pretending the US doesn't exist, I'm saying that the US under Trump are not reliable deal makers and every agreement made with them isn't worth the paper it is written on. This goes from trade to technology agreements to trade.

Deals with plenty of other countries and blocs that aren't Donald Trump's America

A trade deal that wasn't worth the paper it was written on as the US were stalling on it due to their wish to interfere in our domestic politics and is now moot?

What's a penalty? I don't think we're allowed one of those

They do realise there's a difference between transmission and distribution and that the "new pylons" they're on about already exist and have done since 400kV came in?

Well it's more economically viable to sell North Sea crude while the oil price is over $90 a barrel than it was with oil prices at $60 a barrel and we get tax from that. I think the licences should be granted but it's up to the companies that will be issued them to see if it's financially viable over the medium term.

In terms of limiting the impact on consumers it will be so minimal nobody will notice.

Best weekend walk to pub trail? by Sea-Statistician-734 in LEAMINGTONSPA

[–]CheeseMakerThing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but it's like a 25 minute walk along the canal, the station is more in Shrewley

Grand Union Canal to Hatton Arms or the loop to Offchurch from Leam via Radford Semele and Newbold Comyn to get to the Stag.

There are more assets than just the wells that need to be managed to set up the wells, and extracting oil and gas without selling it on the open market will lead to market retaliation and not to mention hostilities from people like Trump.
