For a moment I thought this was going to be another Swindon Town style collapse. I was there for that one. Still have memories of my mate beside me laughing his arse off as we conceded more and more and eventually lost. It is quite possible that 4-6 is mostly responsible for my intense dislike of Swindon and Glenn Hoddle. I remember it being obvious at 4-3 up that we were going to lose the game. There was just no way we could hold out even for a draw. From memory he was player/manager and brought himself on which changed the game significantly? |

I also watched the latest HDM last night, and agree with what Tent Hen said.
Edit: I don't agree with anything shenguin said. Even if he said exactly the same thing.

'Highlights'
I'd forgotten quite how terrible our keeper was. The one where he steps off the line so the ball can loop over him is especially good. Also where he rushes out to palm a cross to the forward.
Hoddle and Mickey Hazard destroyed us. Hoddle played as sweeper for an hour, then in midfield. He was not a great defender.

So I finished Luigi’s Mansion 3 over the weekend. I mean I got to the last level and beat King Boo.
However there was no way to continue and get all the other gems and Boo’s, without having to do that last battle again.
So I got a B rating and I’m happy with that.
I couldn’t bring myself to relaunch Fire Emblem which I’m in the middle of a second run through, nor the hard level of Breath of the Wild - I just realised I’m not a serious gamer!

Hello.
I'm busy* at work and I don't like it. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to be out a job - but surely there should be some happy medium.
Games. No.
TV. Finished Jack Ryan on the commute. Started the new series of Ray Donovan on the commute.
My steam controller is at the post office for collection. My new laptop is at a parcel force place in Warrington.
I'm willing Trump to say something really fucking stupid about Boris but it's not going to happen is it?
*Ok. Busy for me.

The Brexit Party have just put a leaflet through my door. The candidate is Terence McHale, he is a bald middle aged white guy, as I believe is their tradition. He works in IT admin, so is obviously one of life's winners and believes in the following: To scrap inheritance tax. To end interest in student loans To reduce tariffs on non-EU goods To improve public transport To tackle homelessness and affordable housing The whole piece looks a bit jumbled and incoherent with "I am ready" randomly stated in bold in the centre. Why does he want to tackle affordable housing? Surely he should be targetting unaffordable housing. The shit. |

I also thought it was a bit suspect that he wanted to discourage student loans.

You can have a student loan, but make sure you look bored when you ask for it?

Also got a Brexit Party leaflet, but a generic one that doesn't even name the candidate, just a picture of Führage. Poor effort.
Bit more Pokemon Shield last night but not much progress as I've given up on sorting by Pokedex since I've discovered that there are different wallpapers that makes sorting by type more colour- and meaningful. But they are not making it easy for the organised Poke nerd, one needs an extra box for new arrivals and Pokemans returning from jobs.
I've also recently had my first surprise trade. I threw a spare Mudbray in as I expected to be pelted with dumb squirrels in return. Instead a French player sent me a Grookey! Just the same day I had learnt that Pokemon with a foreign language background raise the likelihood of hatching a shiny one when used in breeding. How cool is that? I no longer want to hear a single bad word against the cheese-eating surrender monkeys. They are mes amis who send me un singe vert in exchange for un âne stupide.
Better go and cook some brie curry for my Grookey.

GOTY: Civ IV. I don't think I've played any games released this year.
BOTY, nicest & funniest: me. I won't bother with a poll as it's a foregone conclusion.
Edit: having read Tent's post, Curry of the Year: fish. With brie a close second.

I got a LibDem leaflet yesterday disguised as a piece of professional analysis of voting patterns. A quick Google confirmed that the author is indeed some kind of political scientist, and also a former candidate for the, err, libdems.
That's my nom for leaflet of the year.

We've established rolling is called Steve, and Crank works in a library. Melvazord it is. |

Melvazord it is. Connection to Sheffield Hallam, and Mc in the name? It's BabyFark himself, doing a sly bit of self-promotion. Although . . . strident political opinions and an absolute cunt . . . possibly it's me. |
