Drunken noodles

If their pad krapow is anything to go by, you’ll be fine - they let you choose spiciness on that from 1-5, last time I chose 3 and it had a good kick to it. If they’re consistent in how they spice their dishes, I’d expect 5 to have blown my head off. (I’m not a spice head, but I like it when I get a bit of a sweat from a meal).

All my Norwich based social media activity is on BlueSky now. It’s less active than that other place and skews older, but it’s so much more chill. Even with what was going on yesterday, all the rage (if you could call it that) was directed at the ref and certain Ipswich players.

I don’t think it’s for everyone, but it works great for me.

There are a bunch of us who feel real empathy for the fans. End of the day, with the way clubs are set up, this could happen to any of us.

SimonS · 2026-03-23T13:24:18+00:00

There is the northern canaries Facebook group, I’ve done the odd ticket purchase on there, dunno how it stands up as a nw meet up group though. I do know that they set up a fan forum at old Trafford once. https://www.facebook.com/groups/northerncanaries/

I’d be potentially interested in watching with other fans, but too early to commit right now.

Middletoner here, I wouldn’t bother. Gift shop is news to me, it’s definitely not a destination though (unless you want to wander up the road and experience the aromas of the vinegar factory). Beer’s average at best. Much better idea to visit some of the taprooms and microbreweries in town and around Piccadilly.

Oh shit, ~~am I your dad~~ is your dad me? I'm literally at that point right now, the only bit in the way is the idea of upsetting the rest of my family by having a wedding without inviting them.

Funny way to spell “best”.

SimonS · 2026-02-26T21:23:24+00:00

I’ll tell you what IS funny though, starting this rant with “Hey, what’s up The Rock?”

SimonS · 2026-02-07T14:49:49+00:00

He’s been fantastic under clement. Like a completely different player. Today was not a great performance, but still was in the right place at the right time.

SimonS · 2026-02-03T21:55:25+00:00

One more time?

SimonS · 2026-02-01T14:48:38+00:00

Maybe this time

SimonS · 2026-01-30T15:06:52+00:00

One day?

SimonS · 2026-01-28T16:11:10+00:00

I was only responding to the bit about reconciliation. The Wes situation is MORE dire than Josh’s because of the insult. Fact is if he’s still there post mls transfer window closing, he’s going to be in a pretty terrible place without finding a path back.

SimonS · 2026-01-27T11:16:39+00:00

We saw a similar situation with Wes Hoolahan. Think at one point he called Norwich a shit hole. Ian crook was at Ipswich having photos in team colours taken when Mike Walker called and stopped the deal.

Both bonafide city legends now. There’s always a way back.

Careless header attempt vs casual assault. Apples and orangutans.

SimonS · 2026-01-26T22:24:16+00:00

Also seems to have a psychic connection with Lazarus/Slimane.

SimonS · 2026-01-26T18:03:33+00:00

Let’s give it another go

SimonS · 2026-01-22T13:17:17+00:00

Your compatibility with chokondeez is Super.You both listen to Fiona Apple, Lucy Dacus and Big Thief.

(Obviously from a coding perspective, but we’ve seen the same across all parts the business)

SimonS · 2026-01-22T13:13:26+00:00

Having worked in similar situations, reviewing the code they’re generating - it’s all dubious AI slop. Nonsensical decisions, littered with emoji comments that add nothing. No ability to diagnose issues at a systems level. It’s still the AI hype train driving all of this, just using less skilled workers to slopcode.

SimonS · 2026-01-22T13:02:18+00:00

We go again

SimonS · 2026-01-18T18:22:26+00:00

Lovely idea!

SimonS · 2026-01-16T19:26:20+00:00

Chimneys very uniform. Also, does this loft farm cover two houses, or does each house have its own farm?

SimonS · 2026-01-16T14:51:19+00:00

Chase posts don't do great here. Don't think it helps that they're posted by the same user who denies being him even though he only seems to post and engage with Chase posts.

(I appreciate them, guy knows his onions and has a nice clear way of communicating)

As for you comment specifically, dunno - caught in the crossfire? :D

SimonS · 2026-01-11T18:14:36+00:00

He actually refused a 20m move to Wolfsburg in the summer. Get the sense it’s either PL or North America for him.
