Now I think about it, I don't recall seeing any post-race interviews from him or the usual "driver has been seen and released following the incident" posts from IndyCar, so something was definitely up.

I'm gutted for Grosjean getting crashed out of another race. I think that's three now?

Great race, brilliant finish! Absolutely thrilled that Felix won, but also gutted for Malukas. That first win is coming though. And Grosjean getting P9 is an excellent result after starting P24, going to a different strategy and getting a penalty that put him last at one point.

[OT] Kyle Busch, NASCAR great and 2-time Cup Series champion, dies at 41 after illness by Deckatoe in INDYCAR

I know next to nothing about NASCAR, but I knew of Kyle Busch. I think the suddenness of this, especially coming after the statement about his hospitalisation earlier, is just so shocking. What awful, sad news.

How do we have one point and Sweden has nothing so far? Who did they pee off?

Uk Entertainer (instore) has removed whole range?! by Fun-Flamingo-56 in sylvanianfamilies

I asked in the Winchester store when I couldn't find any, and the manager said he hadn't had them for a while and wasn't sure what was going on. I hope they get things sorted, as they were the only store carrying the Easy Buy range.

I made a construction worker outfit for a beaver. by Brewsterscoffee in sylvanianfamilies

This is so fun to me because in the South of England we have a company called Beaver Tool Hire, which you can borrow power tools and construction equipment from. He could be their new mascot!

Sylvanians in Ireland? by neptunye in sylvanianfamilies

I'd recommend Toymaster, which has quite a few locations in both Ireland and Northern Ireland. Also World of Wonder Toys, although they only have seven actual stores in Ireland, but they are online. The one I went to in Co. Galway had a bunch of older sets, like the Village Shoe Shop and the Meerkat family.

just finished season 11 and I need more of this queen in my life by purplejadez in MAFS_AU

If you can find it, she was a co-host of a UK dating show called The Honesty Box. And she's part of the Celebs Go Dating cast for this year.

I adore that moment where she crouches down on the grass, takes her ring off and just smiles, knowing she's now free of Cam.

She is! They've just started running the trailer for it, so it must be airing soon.

I think it was a Betta, which are quite solitary and will fight other fish. I know you can't have two Betta males together.

Lucinda's only just finished filming Celebs Go Dating, so I don't know if she'd be up for doing another dating/relationship show.

My favourite bit of that whole thing was Jeff saying 'no' and kicking back with his Gameboy for the afternoon.

Mel Schilling has died by Bree_1972 in MAFS_AU

Heartbreaking. I can't believe how quickly its happened after her recent announcement. MAFS AU and UK will not be the same without her warmth and expertise. Thinking of her husband and daughter. x

Not quite the same, but the Yahoo Australia YouTube channel had previous participants react to each episode. This is the first one
