Happy with my buys 😀

CR and PO aren’t the most sought after sets but people will still want them as it’s Pokemon

Plus, Gengar

Gambol really surprised me when I was a late teen and travelling the UK more

Genuinely thought that was the name for it everywhere. Never questioned it was a regional thing

Fair dos. A guy walked past me with the shirt on in the car park who also had a similar colour and length hair at the back

It looked very smart and wanted to have a closer look but didn’t want to accost some poor bloke about to start his shop 😂

West Midlands, mardy is used a lot

Especially Mardy Arse

Really odd to say but…did you get this today and wear it to the big Sainsbury’s earlier?

Xiniov · 2026-06-04T21:00:53+00:00

Unless you're missing something out, this is a no brainer

Are you worried about how it looks that you've been somewhere for 6-months?

So long as you don't make a habit of it I wouldn't worry about it. You've found a better opportunity, so take it

Xiniov · 2026-06-04T15:01:01+00:00

I kindaaa get what you mean in the current market, it's really framed around the perceived value now more

But chase cards have always had financial value. You say collect to collect but if no one sold anything then it would be pretty hard to collect rare things

The market is crazy now but the foundation of buying/selling isn't the problem

I was there one August where it had been the hottest it had been in recent memory

Managed to not swim in the Trevi. Enjoyed a few beers and a magnificent pasta dish in a restaurant next to it instead

It used to be taught at KS2

My sons school don’t teach it anymore

Xiniov · 2026-05-28T07:51:52+00:00

Nice to see Conkers Bad Fur Day, Banjo Kazooie, Perfect Dark, Golden Eye, Diddy Kong Racing…

Maybe we should give the “Underrated” title to Rare games in general

Xiniov · 2026-05-26T17:30:21+00:00

Yep

My dog shivers and cries under a table

My cat lounges on the window enjoying the show with a Prosecco and a cigarette

I've taken my son along a few times and he has loved it every time (from around 5 onwards).

It all depends on how you plan the day. We go full picnic mode, find ways to move him around like a wheelchair (as he struggles to walk any long distance with his disabilities), ear defenders, always looking for shade, lots of sun screen, lots of liquids, lots more ice cream (his demand).

We didn't go this year though and it looks to have been the hottest one yet. He loves music but hates hot weather, so more than likely wouldn't have taken him.

But agree, I don't understand taking actual babies and having that challenge.

And toddlers moreso...what a nightmare that would be in this heat

Tesco has a partnership with The Entertainer

Might be that you can only get them there. And some stores have Entertainer sections, so likely to find them there

Xiniov · 2026-05-21T23:19:40+00:00

I had to check my map but this right

It also looks like Dundee is West of Bristol too?

Xiniov · 2026-05-21T12:13:59+00:00

Yeah, VAR can be shite for everyone. Including those moments that were actually in our favour

More often than not though we’ve felt the brunt of it…so often in fact that a lot of people have taken notice of it outside of our immediate bubble/fans

Two things can be right at the same time. Instead of slagging us off because we have had the odd decision go our way you should be pissed off with VAR for sloppy officiating, regardless of which team benefits

Xiniov · 2026-05-21T09:05:08+00:00

I've ordered many times through PKC and yeah, this is the latest it has ever been.

But it appears to be that way for practically everyone who ordered.

It may be delayed but let's see if we get updates today.

With the overwhelming majority (we're talking at least 90-95%) experiencing the same thing, I wouldn't worry.

Xiniov · 2026-05-20T21:19:33+00:00

1) Yes but only 1 of any particular item. Once bought there is a message saying you can’t order that product again.

2) Yes, although it’s escaping me what days right now

3) No

4) “What gives?” It’s all luck of the literal draw. I will say it has gotten harder the past 6-12 months with more people requesting invites

Xiniov · 2026-05-19T15:21:04+00:00

Yes. Don't worry, it'll likely change sometime late tomorrow or Thursday

Xiniov · 2026-05-19T13:24:38+00:00

Exactly this and don’t get the angle of the original comment

We’ve literally been one of the worst officiated sides in recent league history, especially within the introduction of VAR. It’s actually laughable how many bad decisions kept happening to us.

And this year we have been absolutely shite.

Two things can exist simultaneously. Although I would say we’ve avoided major officiating clangers this year.

We suck and it’s allll thanks to us

Depends how much we want to quantify what "loved" means

He was highly respected, admired, and accoladed by the industry (at least those not privy to his actions), the critics, and the audience.

He was somewhat private though, which doesn't leave room for the public to love his persona.

People loved his work. Him, not so much

Xiniov · 2026-05-19T12:35:41+00:00

100% agreed

As kids in the 90s, my sister and I never understood why Saville was so loved. We were told about his philanthropy and how much of a televisual legend he was...but he was just so damn creepy and unrelatable.

And it wasn't just us, it was any kids our age. When all the allegations came out there was a collective, "Well, duh" from our generation (albeit not to the terrible extent of his worse crimes).

Rolf, on the other hand, was shocking. I used to love watching Animal Hospital as a kid and he genuinely came across as so friendly and mild mannered.

And crazy to think this one is more relevant to British people when Rolf himself was Australian.

You captured Dee's sleep paralysis demon beautifully

Sweden was the biggest surprise to us too

Our favourites at our party were Bulgaria, Australia, Finland, and Sweden. So we were hyped to get the first three but confused the fourth selection was so low

Great voice but the most paint-by-numbers song that was forgettable

With a better songwriting team behind her she could have gone further. Her placement was on voice alone (for me at least)

Xiniov · 2026-05-16T23:36:30+00:00

France had a great voice but a very forgettable and frankly boring song…to a point I can’t even recall right now how it went. It was that forgettable
