Had a bit of a phlegmy throat and runny nose recently but have felt generally okay; LFT negative.

In the meantime, hopefully I qualify on my usual technicality for the 4th jab "VIP pre-sale". ;)

True - but "Bathsh!t" is one of the first adjectives to come to my mind.  ;D

Spot on tribute/obituary in The Guardian. 

One thing I've always noticed about that publication is that if there's one thing it's very good at, it's that.

TWD used to be an essential weekly fixture for me, but I never forgave the awful slump it hit after the first few seasons and so haven't bothered with anything to do with the franchise since.

I remember thinking it just wasn't terribly good. Same for Alien Resurrection.

Quote from: Slim on March 17, 2022, 03:53:02 PMBut Manchester United is the biggest football club in the world.

By what metric? Genuinely curious as most citations I've seen have that as a two-horse race between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

History and importance.
That deserves a LOL

You can't beat a bit of footy bants. :)

Enjoying a thorough ultrasound scan performed by a rather appealing Hispanic lady possibly more than I strictly was meant to. ::)

An NHS admin mishap at post-op scans today extending my visit for at least an hour.

I'm often exasperated at the difference in my experience of the NHS when comparing the quality of their medical treatment (exceptional) and their admin, which is quite poor.

Quote from: R6GYY on March 21, 2022, 10:02:16 AMSome new Muse tracks. Won't Stand Down, and Compliance. New album "Will Of The People" due in August.

They're okay - they don't sound as strong as anything on Simulation Theory but they might be growers; we'll see. :)
