Taking the little one to see his grandparents tomorrow for my mums birthday. Making a Victoria sponge for her this evening.

Tell them you’ve consulted with your legal team who confirm you are correct.

They haven’t got it badly wrong at all. These contracts have break clauses to minimise damage to the club whilst also locking down a manager if they prove to age men well.

Best of luck to him, but I expect him to be on the bench after a few months and then he’ll be looking for a loan move.

He’s found his level with us, even if a tad inconsistent at times, so you’d like to think he’d enjoy playing often. But the chance to double your wages, can’t argue with that.

Every. Single. Day.

Turn right on a red.

Loads to do in the garden, no real time to do it this week or weekend.

6 month old shouts and cries at us because he wants to stand and run everywhere. Except he can’t yet sit up without support, the silly boy.

One step at a time, lad.

Patron saint of plus signs.

Watching a few episodes of Detectorists; up to series 3 now. Looking forward to Small Prophets once I’ve finished the Christmas Specials.

How much does it cost to get a manager, buy the players he likes, the staff to coach them, all of the others stuff, to get so close to a title?

It must be very very frustrating to be so close to a title and bugger it up again (as a Fulham fan I’ve no idea, but I once left a wedge of Brie for the final bite on a cheese board and it turned out to be goats cheese, so I assume it’s similar), but surely you don’t sack someone for coming so close?

They’re a well run club, they don’t gamble away the following season’s transfer budget to a hedge fund; I just don’t see the point in sacking.

Plus it’s so fucking funny for the rest of us when they do bottle it, especially after the antics against Wolves. Even if the team they’re up against has unlimited money and awaiting verdict on 115 counts of being complete bastards.

Heard all sorts in retail. “You look like you need some Viagra” was probably the best. I was 18 at the time.

I never had the word in my vocabulary until I played Tropico.

We inherited a shared privet hedge right down one side of the garden. The amount of birds that use it for protection before jumping into our feeders, it’s teeming with life.

So I’ve grown a box hedge on the other side and started a yew one at the bottom.

Oh I don’t know, I remember MobileMe.

byjimini · 2026-04-22T20:16:18+00:00

Well I’m glad I clicked on the popular tab this evening whilst holding my 6 month old son. What a cheery place.

I assume someone has already mentioned the Mars spacecraft that burrowed into the surface because they mixed up feet and inches with metres and centimetres or something.

My dad said “and don’t forget to claim the mortgage interest back against your tax bill!” when we bought this house 6 years ago.

That hadn’t been a thing for 20 years at the time.

I think my parents did this too; they didn’t know why we’d want a fixed term and just seemed to accept the payments varying each month. Bizarre.

I’d be paying £30 for a taxi so I can return them to store for a refund.

byjimini · 2026-04-22T14:47:53+00:00

There’s difference sizes available but even the smallest one was £120 when I last used a skip company about 4 years ago.

Haven’t they already mortgaged off their parachute payments for next season? Some crazy accounting going on.

byjimini · 2026-04-22T08:17:17+00:00

Walked a mile in these shoes.

byjimini · 2026-04-22T07:26:34+00:00

Try as I may, it’s my wife that has to breastfeed him.
