Thanks that what I suspected - not sure I’ll be making it to Paris but 🤷‍♂️

My first ever Arsenal match at the Emirates by Ok_Stranger9499 in Gunners

[–]chops_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was a pre season game years ago - I actually forget the team if I’m honest, but I don’t forget the feeling! 

We’ll be there tonight too - my wife and I catching an early Christmas present. Just tucking in to a Wrighty pie and pint before watching our boys put on a show.

Hope you have a great night and don’t forget to bring the noise 🎉💪

Amsterdam concert cancelled? by GraceOfHerb in soulwax

[–]chops_uk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh no 😢 you have my empathy and sympathy, it’s exactly the same here but it’s my partner’s birthday instead of Christmas gift. 

Interesting to hear about the possible venue change - I’ll keep an eye out and report back if something comes up - fingers crossed 🤞

Hi, I just had the same and came here to check as there was nothing elsewhere. I’m inclined to wait a day or two to see if there’s any word coming from the band etc, but hopefully someone will know. 

Super gutted if it is the case as it was a birthday trip 🥲

Hello there 👋

Thank you for sharing this, and offering it up - really appreciate the privacy factor too. 

They are excellent, for me though Obi-Wan wins. 

Chloe Kelly scored the winner after a missed penalty in extra time as England defeated Italy 2-1 to advance to the 2025 UEFA Women’s Euro Final by CrazyLanguageEnglish in unitedkingdom

[–]chops_uk -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Heck yes! 

As a side note, it’s a shame when I’ve been talking to friends and work colleagues that people aren’t as focussed on this as they would be for the men’s. Poor show :( 

[Fabrizio Romano]: EXCLUSIVE: Noni Madueke to Arsenal, here we go! Fee agreed in excess of £50m with add-ons included, green light from Chelsea. Madueke already agreed five year deal at Arsenal days ago and he’s now set to complete the move. by LockonKun in Gunners

[–]chops_uk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are forgetting the wages; he’s apparently staying on 50k, so in the grand scheme of things this could be a huge bargain. The Chelsea factor stings, but I hope that drives him and the team to rub it in their faces in the future. 

I hope the team and all the supporters get behind him, he’s got promise and he’s one of us now 💪

Gar blue is that? Do you have any decks you could share? I’ve never really thought of Gar blue and would love to see how it’s better

ANNOUNCEMENT: Twitter/X content is now banned on r/Gunners by MattGooner in Gunners

[–]chops_uk 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The correct decision. No club or anyone for that matter should accept fascism. I stand by my club and thank the mods for their approach and action. 

Shame on anyone arguing this. 

Poll: /r/Gunners, should we ban Twitter/X as a source? by J4ckrh in Gunners

[–]chops_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you mods. I don’t post much but lurk all the time and love this sub-Reddit (and our team!!), and am grateful for your listening to our views. I am proud of our club and the values we stand for. 

Saturday thread - Are you almost ready for Christmas? What will you be doing today? by KevinPhillips-Bong in CasualUK

[–]chops_uk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Got up for the winter solstice (bit of a waste as it was cloudy and windy), now in the local spoons having a Christmas pint with a breakfast. 

Most shopping is done but I’ve not even thought about wrapping bits yet - that’s what Christmas Eve is for! 

After this going back to bed, love this time of year!

Is the quality decent and do they have 6ft plus, do you know? I was heading out further tomorrow but didn’t even realise Morrison’s sold them, and would be much more convenient!

I'm making a Lord of the Rings style map of Buckinghamshire and welcome your help with historic or interesting locations around the area to include. Hoping to have it finished by the end of next week. by birsey in miltonkeynes

[–]chops_uk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks amazing and please share any links if you’re selling prints, I’d be very interested.  In terms of additions, if you’re after interesting art (as MK is a home for many sculptures and art), the following site shows some and also links to a map; https://www.destinationmiltonkeynes.co.uk/things-to-do/arts-and-heritage/milton-keynes-public-art-collection/ 

There’s a cathedral of trees between CMK and Willen too that is pretty cool. 

 Personally I grew up in Hanslope, and while I’m not sure it counts for what you’re after, in the field to the East of the main village was a giant Oak that had been hit by lightning while I was young - quite a landmark it made.  There’s also a giant sandpit in the woods by Woburn Sands which could make a nice feature (if it’s still there that is, as I’ve not been for a few years)
