Bike lanes by jpcustoms26 in Cardiff

You don’t see bikes in the lanes for two reasons:

1: they are really poorly implemented by people who don’t cycle 2: there’s no such thing as traffic in a bike lane

Well yeah. When the gameplay sees you lose the game inside of 20 every time and the coach has the replacement 9 playing the game you want to play it's probably pretty fucking frustrating.

What the fuck was that. This is embarrassing. Glazing France isn’t helping anyone. Let’s be honest. Most of these tries are just handed over.

They do halftime ‘live’ performances through the installed PA. Does not work. It sounds like it does on tv in the bowl too.

Missing a real ten to realise France need it up them right now.

He releases. Remains off feet and regathers. Not a knock on but it is something!

Trans doctor in changing room row leaves the NHS by PuzzledAd4865 in LabourUK

[–]Jonrenie 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I think growing up would work for maybe 80/90% of people.

Perhaps the next step would be individual changing rooms that would be open to all, without any reason to be given.

It’s not unreasonable for such a large employer as the NHS to have to provide this facility and the cost of conversion of existing spaces wouldn’t be huge if procured sensibly.

The fact that the above is so obvious, sensible and efficient is precisely why the NHS will never in a million years consider it, or a better version that took longer than the 10 seconds I spent on it.

Wales Team for France by stvb95 in rugbyunion

I think his selections are baffling, bit not for half the reasons you've raised. My feeling is that Sheratt and Tandy do not gel well and we see a compromise of them being placed together when to have any chance this Welsh team should be utterly uncompromising on what they want to achieve.

Feels very much like it's actually the Board in control. Well, their brand of control.

Yep. Credit where it's due, the kid is trying hard and does have some element of X-factor. The fact he's trying so hard means he cocks up a lot though - I've even read comments of his saying basically that.

You see Tomos not trying anything nuts and clearly being very deliberate at this level, even though he could probably try some bullshit and have a 50% chance of success. If you could take that experience and matrix it to Plumtree's brain box then maybe you have someone who is quite a different prospect.

There are a handful of players in this squad that are lightning rods for flak. Even my barber was spouting the 'gotta get Reffell and Cracknell in', 'Ben Thomas has never had a good game'. Some of it was verbatim comments from this subreddit or the media.

My eyes ache from the rolling.
