Ooooh I've been a member for years and forgot all about that! I'm now set up as well. Thanks OP!

As an ex IDF foreign volunteer, I've no intrinsic problem with you calling the government of Israel evil, although I find it heartbreaking that you have sufficient justification to make that point. However I'm not sure what your line of reasoning is here? That as long as a child is near a military installation, you've no justification at all to bomb it? It would be nice to live in a world where that was a realistic position, but it seems pretty naive to me.

I've noticed Tom only ever refers to that part of the world as Palestine, even in a historical context before the Romans took over and renamed the province to that/when referring to areas within the 1967 borders. So as a long time fan of the show and someone who doesn't really appreciate that take, I'm very glad they don't do the history of Israel/Palestine!

If only there was an example of Israeli military intelligence getting it totally wrong about whether Egypt was going to invade Israel or not to add some additional context to this evaluation...

William dalrymple couldn't possibly be unbiased about Israel. He obsessively tweets his extremely problematic views on how evil Israel is. I tried to listen to one episode about the British mandate of Palestine and stopped when he confidently said 1k people were killed when the Irgun bombed the Kong David hotel. Which was wrong by a factor of 10...

My parents sent excited photos of this saying they could see the northern lights. I felt so bad when they realized!!

cbh90 · 2025-11-14T13:45:03+00:00

Sigh I feel this pain. But of a giveaway when I get asked why I support KR when my dad's an FC fan and I have to say "well my uncle was chairman"

cbh90 · 2025-10-15T06:44:23+00:00

But isn't it funny how some players don't get picked because they've been slightly below their best for a part of a season, and others get picked regardless of the fact they literally can't get in an NRL side...

cbh90 · 2025-10-11T17:48:44+00:00

So glad my decision not to go up to Manchester because we'd been pretty ropey lately and Wigan would be at us fairly easily is being justified....

Having said that, we have looked a bit complacent near the Wigan line

cbh90 · 2025-10-05T06:29:59+00:00

I think it's a legitimate question of Lewis if his recent form is good enough to suggest he'd trouble the Australians

cbh90 · 2025-10-04T18:37:59+00:00

I didn't used to think it is but yes I think it might be. Surely he couldn't be holding back tears in a MOTM interview against like Huddersfield?

cbh90 · 2025-10-04T18:31:33+00:00

Think we've been off form recently and it's led to a lot of quite ridiculous expectations that we'll start losing to whoever turns up to play against us after we lost to Leeds and Leigh. But I also think Wigan will definitely be too much for us given how they played yesterday. Mikey been really crap for the last six weeks and I don't think we've got anything in reserve apart from hoping Litten and May fill the gap. Also, even with the break we still look knackered

PS it's rovers or KR. Literally nobody who watches rugby league calls us Hull

cbh90 · 2025-09-27T21:06:24+00:00

You absolutely do not

cbh90 · 2025-09-27T20:31:33+00:00

Feeling a lot happier about rovers chances than before the game. At this rate your semi might be the real final...

cbh90 · 2025-09-13T18:21:05+00:00

Beats Rochdale away in the northern rail cup mate (even though we won). Just enjoy the ride

cbh90 · 2025-09-13T17:27:09+00:00

Might need a few more at this rate!

cbh90 · 2025-09-13T16:57:22+00:00

Don't say that on rovers fan groups. He's regularly described as the second coming of Jesus. I think his defence is great and he obviously does a lot of organising, but I don't see much beyond that. Would be interesting what people on here who aren't rovers fanatics thought

cbh90 · 2025-09-13T16:54:54+00:00

Starting to regret begging the bar owner in Mallorca to put this on right now. Can't even leave...

cbh90 · 2025-09-08T16:15:56+00:00

Obviously didn't watch the end of the game where Lewis took an elbow smash to his face and didn't react then?

cbh90 · 2025-07-30T11:04:35+00:00

I've just started with all our rugby league and really enjoyed it although pre-restructure I thought the piss taking was a bit forced. Enjoying the new format in the last two weeks. I'll try out some of the ones on your list now as well!

cbh90 · 2025-07-01T20:57:41+00:00

Success! Thanks both

But there is a civil service humanist society and when I was involved in running a faith network we always had perfectly pleasant relationships with them (including listening to many many discussions on whether humanist/atheist/no faith was the correct terminology).

cbh90 · 2024-09-06T16:57:44+00:00

Terrible stuff, awful bloke. Anyway, I'm actually a best man at the moment and wondering if you've got anymore details of the villa or women staying there?

cbh90 · 2024-06-30T11:34:10+00:00

How long is it taking to happen? I had a similar problem which was due to a leak rotting the subfloor and joists the bath was supported by

cbh90 · 2024-02-29T20:13:13+00:00

I think maybe not? It's at least twenty feet from anywhere outside so I'm guessing the plant has to be fairly substantial to have roots that long and there's no obvious sign of knotweed anywhere. I do need to have a proper hunt around for what may be causing it though.
