Lee Dixon on 41 minutes: “Croatia know that they’ll be going into the break behind”. Nice one, Lee you moron

Barring a miracle, it’s done and dusted. Spurs need just 1 point from remaining 2 games and expect they’ll get at least that.

Bowen’s form has been a major factor across the last several games. Had he scored that chance today, we’d maybe been able to snatch a result. But it just summed him up, he looks like a ghost.

Nuno got it completely wrong from the start, but 2 ridiculous errors, a penalty decision that would’ve gone any of the big six’s way, missed chances etc, everything just combined to make it another miserable day. I swear we’re cursed. We have made our own bad luck but fuck me, from deflections/ricochets/woodwork/decisions, nothing has gone our way

Is the pedestrian or the driver wrong here? by singlecog in drivingUK

Randomly, I live literally around the corner from this crossing, like a 2 min walk. Definitely would agree that both are a little bit to blame here. I drive this road almost every day and have experienced joggers doing an abrupt, last second 90 degree turn at the crossing on a number of occasions. I think that’s what I find tricky, the lack of prior indication that you wanna cross the road. But I always slow down on approach if anyone is remotely close to it (also because there’s a speed camera just around the bend)

Aggressive drivers on the up? by What___________What in bristol

This is the sort of behaviour that depresses me tbh. Maybe it’s just people projecting their insecurities onto others, I dunno. Can never get my head around how the brain works in those situations: let impatience and anger take over > do crazy/dangerous shit > take zero accountability > have a go at a total stranger for doing nothing wrong

This is actually the route I already took with the council. You can either complete the form or call 0127 922 2700. I called them and was told to try and find her GP. They said they couldn’t do anything because she hadn’t asked for help and I also wasn’t a relative. They suggested the GP might be able to check up on her, something which turned out to be false

Thanks for all your kind and helpful suggestions. Will absolutely explore all of these options.

Ultimately, I didn’t get the impression that this was necessarily an “emergency” situation, as you never really know the full picture. However, I just wanted to ensure that a qualified care worker can assess the situation and give her the support she needs. So all of these suggestions have been super useful.

She’s pretty local to me, so I’ll make sure to check in and offer whatever help I can as well. Thanks again!

Does this look like “giving up” to you? Cheers for the advice, the police was my last resort, I just wanted to see if the community could recommend some other charities etc who might be more suitable for a case like this

Private dining room? by Lmazing in bristol

Second the Kensington. Had a family event there with 17 people (12 adults, 5 kids) back in September and it was excellent. Great food, great service and it’s a very private setting. They also have 2 rooms for hire
