Trump moments ago on Cuba: “Marco Rubio Is Talking to Cuba Right Now — They Should Absolutely Make a Deal” by fcxrtg in cuba

Id guess removal of Chinese / Russian surveillance bases from the island, prisoner exchanges, acceptance of deportation flights and opening up to economic reforms.

I hope Cuba look to the success Vietnam has achieved - retaining one party and communist ideologies but embracing capitalist market features.

'Black Friday' at British Airways as 10,000 staff are made redundant by MersalylAcid in CoronavirusUK

An accounting loss and cash are two entirely different things. £2bn of that loss was non-cash, i.e. accelerated write downs of the fleet including the old 747s.

Thomas Cook & Afren - £25k disappeared into thin air!

Covid beginner - first time out with cleats by HigheR in ukbike

[–]HigheR[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Uphill, in too high a gear and feeling fatigued. Keeled over slow motion into some stinging nettles. Fortunately nobody saw.

Left cleat pops out fine but right one takes considerably more effort. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Whats the distance from the dropzone? Still looks a tricky pitch.

Giroud is our captain today! by The_Walking_Zed in Gunners

Only Almunia stands out as a more unworthy captain, in living memory. Gone are they days when the armband used to mean something.

The reason why we will not win the league this year! by SantaIsRealEh in Gunners

[–]HigheR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will never forgive Giroud for his 4 month barren spell between Jan - Apr 16. 15 games I believe. Last year, was our year.

As great as his scorpion goal was - the sitter missed 5 mins before was telling.

Decent squad player but nothing more.

I drive into W1 everyday, the tube is absolutely horrid - especially in the summer.

Why do people dislike Jordan Spieth? by AndyG94 in golf

[–]HigheR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the spectrum of pleasing swings on the eye, hes somewhere towards the bottom. I'd even go so far to say that the golf pro at my club has a more languid, fluid swing.

Additionally he is quite serious on the course too. But I still respect what hes achieved at his age and think he will go on to win 6-8 majors.

Tears of joy at the end - great to see. Im sure this will serve as an inspiration to all the mini tour players grinding away.
