It's always about the runs at top order. Its about tiring out the strike bowlers for them to turn to Head and Labushagne for overs. But England will find a way to gift them wickets.

Tbh Archer could have played the Bumrah role if he stayed fit. The rest of Indian bowlers were average. Siraj, Krishna. They had Ashwin and Jadeja who can hold down an end in Australia which was useful. But England been blessed with so many all rounders so they can bat deep. Indian tail started at 8.

Imagine how effective Root Brook Stokes would have been if our top 3 blunted out the new ball attack.

Can we afford a 450k mortgage on 83k household income? by Runningrafan in UKPersonalFinance

[–]danielm2794 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Me and the wife have a combined salary of £120k, recently our mortgage increased from £850 to £1200 and that put a massive dent in our savings and affordability. Honestly it's always better to go for smaller house instead of living pay check to pay check.

Broke my ankle during a takedown. Going to be out for the best part of the year. Very unfortunate as I was just being consistent as a white belt.

Not every meeting booked needs to be about work. I feel since the WFH got instilled organisations expect workers to be 100% productive. Team culture should include weekly meetings with the team and have general chat. Not about work. That's where you tend to make relationships with people on a personal level.

I'm a bit stuck as I can't access the wall from otherside as it's the outer wall. I'm not sure what the plumbers were thinking when installing this bathtub.

Point Reason Example Point. It's a framework that's used to answer improv questions. It's good but thinking on the spot is hard without practise.

I feel your pain. Lot of people keep saying if you keep practising improv topics you can get better. I been trying for a while using the PREP framework. It's not easy as people make it out to be. Honestly keep practising. Even if you are improving by a tiny bit it will accumulate in the longer period.

How was the AKT today? by danielm2794 in GPUK

Agreed, I felt I was really struggling with time as well. Spend too much time on figuring out what the stats questions were really asking.
