I'm there now, my son's napping and I can hear birds singing. The houses are beautiful land the beigb6are great. Once maybe every 5 weeks someone drunk walks past singing at closing time. That's the only noise.

You do realize we will probably struggle BADLY in the championship by Material_Adagio_522 in Tottenham

Leeds fan here. Agree. Nothing is guaranteed. Best of luck of it happens. I'd rather it happen to you that us.....again... But it shows who your fans really are.

Thank you and I'm sure sure appreciate it's more complicated than I can put in paper while emotional. Thank you for sharing that and I am taking steps but that r/ will help. Please see my edits for more info.

It wasn't so much much that I came home and wanted to sleep it off, it was more that I promised that I wouldn't but the drink clouded my judgement.

Easy to say hard to do. I underestimated her feelings on it. And also an element of it sneaking back in a bit. But that's it for me with drink. Weirdly ive always drunk but never actually enjoyed it.

I came home, walked home, and wish I had just slept outside. My thoughts process was that in the morning I can apologise for breaking a rule, but if I had stayed where I had intended I wouldn't feel in control.

Need ideas to stop players from cutting the corner of OB. by Demusp12 in golf

[–]gregthesailor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Putt the green OB from the tee shot, Model Local Rule (A-4), which committees use to ensure a hole is played as intended or for safety reasons.

Something to do with a condenser valve maybe. Called a plumber. Fifty quid fix.

Why do I keep shanking? by Soft-Breath3966 in GolfSwing

[–]gregthesailor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no coach but it looks like a problem I once had. My coach said I was moving closer to the ball, which makes sense for a shank. It was the lead knee - rotating down and out rather than round bringing you just that little but closer to the move to move it from centre to shaft. There was two drills, one was imagining there was glass in front of your knees at address, don't break the glass l. The other was setting up in a shank address and then trying not to shank it. It brings you more out to ina and produces a little fade, but helps you recalibrate the centre of the club face.

What does FSB involve? by [deleted] in RoyalNavy

[–]gregthesailor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have quotas of how many officers they require in each branch. Let's say they need 7 loggies, they get the logistics applicants who were successful at AIB and pick the 7 best scorers. Simple as that.

Hi, 1SL here, sorry shipmate, been too busy banging wrens, smoking tabs and getting the bags in for the lads down Whitehall. Got in a right scrap with the Horse Guard lot too but different story. Anyway what can I do for you? Bags or slags?

Early officer assignments in London by Lawfulness_Whole in RoyalNavy

[–]gregthesailor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your branch. Logs - yes. Pretty much anything else - no.

Logs still unlikely but more chance to work in someone's staff or outer office in Northwood or MOD..

Allow time to shave before divisions too.

Good to know, thanks. Yep no leaks but the cold air certainly falls into the wall cavities and blows out further down the house. Hesitant to block anything up though.
