Next on the agenda is the new Lee Childs - Jack Reacher book, just finishing off a re-read of D-Day.

@Happy Blue

You laugh, but the song is a great reminder of the importance of compromise and managing expectations in interpersonal relationships and marriage

Wtf

Never heard of that song before. Just googled the lyrics. Amazing. Das Land der Dichter und Denker.

Und nur vom Hula-Hula geht der Durst nicht weg!

Es gibt kein Bier auf Hawaii!

I feel you, I've visited 4 countries so far this year... It's understandable, but such a bloody nuisance. The worst part of it is having to keep things flexible and have a backup plan just in case the test turns out positive and you have to reschedule absolutely everything.

Think I'd struggle to make 4 kids with that

So we have a little light shed on Christensens contract situation. Can't say I am surprised as I smelt a little warning smoke a while back and we must not forget his history before he signed his present deal where his father proved to be as helpful as CHO's. The way things are looking if we continue with 3 at the back next season we may well have 3 new names filling the positions.

I just hope he returns to the same health he had before the injury

pretty mouthy for someone that just got slapped out of t20

all dogs like me, i'm a fucking dog magnet

I'm really not pretending though. I'm good.

It's almost as if they're related or something.

Going to Hawaii in January. Never been, always wanted to go ever since I’d seen pictures of it on the internet when I was 12, never thought I’d actually go. Should be cool

Eze is playing 60 minutes for the reserves now so hopefully we will see him before the half way point of the season. It's going to be interesting to see where Patrick Vieira plays him. The initial theory was Gallagher would tuck back deeper so Eze could play as a 10 but Gallaghers press has been so effective I think he's become essential to the way we play.

I'm actually going back to the Costa Del sol(further down the coast) in march for 8 days(everything is booked) so I'm hoping to go up into the hills in a cable car. Like you, I want to visit some mountain villages. Well, it was technically my third trip during the pandemic, as I went to Barcelona last March, just as it was starting, Amsterdam in August between the lockdowns and Málaga the week before last, so I haven't done too badly. I'll post some pictures when I can be arsed. It's beautiful down there though and I was pleasantly surprised with Benlmàdena(which I visited for the day), as it has much more character than I thought it would considering how it's effectively a tourist spot. I suppose it depends on the time of year. It's better going to Spain in Spring or Autumn. You go to the beach and it was at like 10% capacity despite reaching 28 or so degrees. I was also watching the sea one late afternoon and saw Orcas jumping! They weren't too far out either. I thought I was seeing things at first, then others started looking and pointing and then it dawned on me what they were.

This thread sucks.

You are profiling people here. No other reason of asking these

Wow. No words.

Well that was an interesting break, did some amazing snorkeling at Paradise beach and a coral island in the middle of the ocean. Then 3 days into the holiday I felt like I'd been kicked in the stomach by a horse but being a father who didn't want to spoil his kids holiday I soldiered on through even though I was near collapse from dehydration and diarrhea. Only ended having to go into one of their private clinics after three days of hell. The doctor walked in looking like he'd just ended his shift as a night porter and possibly only left school a few weeks earlier. Not to mention the room looked about as hygienic as construction site cabin. So I quietly refused the drip they suggested was the best medical solution through fear of catching something far worse. I'm now home still sick and waiting for my appointment with my GP tomorrow who is that concerned about me he suggested if I get any more pains this evening I go straight to A&E. So all in all it was a bit of a disaster and it has put me off travelling to Egypt ever again.
