  1. Name and shame as I’m upto 6. One I can’t place. No Shane though
  2. No way I’d be up and out at 1am watching the skies if not for the sake of kids. Maybes just getting old.
  3. Big meteor shower tonight if you have clear skies and kids. 12-2 is the prime viewing slot.
  4. Botman out, Trippier form, one fully fit striker and others like Schar and Burn another year older and slower.
  5. The lack of European football had me hoping for a good season, however the poor showing in the transfer market (so far) has stifled that hope. As we stand today, I think we will struggle to improve on last year. Not much to go on from the pre season other than Hall looks ready to shine and Tino looks a long way off filling Trippiers boots. We do however have the excitement of waiting to see which of Miggy or Murphy gets the nod All in all, a poorer first 11 than last season. Opportunity missed by those in charge of recruitment.
  6. Anyone just see / hear that fighter jet. Flipping low and fast that over built up areas Not even British!!!! Bloody Qatar air force, coming over here and stealing our airspace!
  7. Aye, looks beautiful there. Watched a few videos on it when I first got into it and hoped to do it last year when I was down that way but never got. Haven’t been out at all this year due to various reasons but hoping to get into the sea at Roker next week. I do prefer a meandering river though.
  8. Anyone know what it’s like trying to get onto Holy island on a morning. Are the queues massive etc
  9. Also, the whole point of the quick arrests, remand and long sentences was to immediately stop further riots. Good plan, well executed.
  10. Or at least jump in a car to Screwfix for the tool!
  11. Also depends how long it’s been up for sale. Quite often estate agents will give their property dealing mates 1st shout. Also, we are entering a period of interest rates coming down which will fuel the market.
  12. Starting up again in Sunderland now according to a friend of the wife, who has just left the town. No idea if true or not.
  13. I can tell you that my Nearby taxi driver forum (with over 2000 drivers covering every part of the North East), is usually a pretty good news information service. More so relating to these incidents, and not a peep 👍🏻
  14. Personally I think they are shockingly low. 28 months, (so probably 1 year) for Arson setting a police van on fire. Typical Labour soft on crime
  15. The old me would have loved debating where its gone wrong on so many levels both nationally, locally and lets not forget bombing the shit out of so many countries around the world and making countries unlivable. The new me just wants some grown up clever people to sort this shit out. 👍
  16. So a glorious few hours in Durham with Mrs CT this morning and the discover that the rats are coming. A so called children's protest today from 2 and the adult protest tomorrow. No idea what a children's protest is, but a lot of the shops are considering closing up early. Walking around, the place was full of what I assume was new students and their families either having a look around before they start or maybe getting set up in digs early. In particular a lot of Asian. Imagine having to meet these horrors in your new home for the next few years. Personally I've felt more touched by recent events than I normally do with stuff that doesn't directly effect (or affect, before Fish jumps in) me. I've found myself making eye contact with non white blokes at bus stops as I drive past and only feeling what I can best closely describe as shame. I might be worried about days out / holiday choices spoilt, but these poor buggers have to constantly live with the fear of being attacked whether getting the bus, at work or even in their homes. I even wanted to stop every non white person in Durham and warn them whats coming. What a shit show. And sadly, nothing is going to change this other than tougher laws and tougher sentencing. Immigration has been handled very poorly for decades and I do understand older people in certain areas of the country where it has very much changed their area. These people will die out. But the underclass of scum and their offspring need dealing with whatever fancy name they give themselves. I cant remember what they went by before the days of the national front. Social media will not go away so some very clever people are going to have to introduce laws that put online "discussions" of racist leanings, is treated in a similar way to being caught looking at kiddy porn. Get the mainstream thickos totally away from it online and let the real nasties go underground in smaller numbers where they can be targeted and punished more easily. Sorry, had to have a rant.
