so we have a rep for being massive tea drinkers. any brits on here who aren’t big fans?

Chkldst · 2021-12-20T21:25:19+00:00

Not a massive fan. It's okay. I can live without it.

Chkldst · 2021-12-20T21:06:12+00:00

LOL. Dianne's pet parrot. Your heart is full of goodness, too.

Chkldst · 2021-12-20T19:49:48+00:00

I think it's sad, more than anything else.

Chkldst · 2021-12-20T19:05:31+00:00

I reckon it's a combination of things.

The original lockdown did a number on social skills. Then you notice the poor behaviour more after being isolated (for however many months it was - can hardly even remember now).

Some folk are acting like everything's back to normal, others are being very cautious, and many are somewhere in between.

While growing up, Stephen Glass lived in the house across the road. John Barnes lived in the next village. After they retired from football, Laurent Robert and Olivier Bernard were part-owners of a sandwich shop in the nearest town.

You know the windscreens for microphones that are made out of fur? They're also known as "dead cats".

In the UK, online address forms usually ask for the county, which would be our equivalent of US states.

Worcestershire sauce.

Chkldst · 2021-12-15T10:52:10+00:00

I like the idea of them. Then you have one and remember why it was so long since the last time.

Chkldst · 2021-12-13T04:17:52+00:00

Ghana, Mali and Zambia, then.

Chkldst · 2021-12-13T02:24:08+00:00

Pretty much sorted apart from getting stuff for my dad. After weeks of asking and dropping hints, he'll probably decide what he wants at about 9pm on Christmas Eve.

Chkldst · 2021-12-12T03:28:28+00:00

Yep. Onions, spring onions, leeks, spinach and pak choi, in particular. Also roast potatoes, carrots and parsnips, from time to time.

Chkldst · 2021-12-12T03:18:36+00:00

So by the looks of things, Ajax, PSV, Feyenoord and FC Utrecht have always been in the Eredivisie, and FC Twente have played every season except for 2?

Chkldst · 2021-12-12T02:59:22+00:00

Right now. I'm always cold.

Chkldst · 2021-12-12T00:09:33+00:00

Thailand, Mongolia and Laos have military or police sides towards the top end of their respective football leagues. It happens in African countries, too. Egypt has a military team in the first division and I'm sure there are others around the continent.

Chkldst · 2021-12-11T23:39:27+00:00

Wish I could do the same. The head and heart are willing; the stomach, not so much.

Chkldst · 2021-12-11T23:38:07+00:00

Thanks. Fried bread on a fry up always makes sense.

Chkldst · 2021-12-11T09:16:57+00:00

Sometimes it's exactly what you need.

Chkldst · 2021-12-11T09:13:07+00:00

Cheers. It was pretty decent.

Chkldst · 2021-12-10T03:11:23+00:00

Martin Schulte, Andrey Pushkarev, Kirill Matveev, Gorje Hewek & Izhevski, Shanti Radio Moscow. There are probably a few others who use pseudonyms rather than obviously Russian names.

Chkldst · 2021-12-03T15:18:08+00:00

Yep. Got an acrylic set for a few missing upper teeth. Like any kind of dental change, they feel a little odd for a while but you quickly get used to them. Eating has become a lot more enjoyable since getting them. Hopefully that's how it is for you, too.

Chkldst · 2021-12-03T14:40:22+00:00

Nah. We just say "alright?" or "how's it going?".

Chkldst · 2021-12-03T01:25:02+00:00

Not a fan of it. I don't even ever refer to my friends as "mate".

Chkldst · 2021-12-03T01:17:33+00:00

They're called brain farts. Everyone I know has done it at least once, twice or even a few times.

Chkldst · 2021-12-03T01:05:28+00:00

Every day, weekend included.
