  1. Same A lightsaber is a fictional energy sword featured throughout the Star Wars franchise. A typical lightsaber is depicted as a luminescent plasma blade about 3 feet (0.91 m) in length emitted from a metal hilt around 10.5 inches (27 cm) in length.[1] First introduced in the original Star Wars film,[a] it has since appeared in most Star Wars films, with at least one lightsaber duel occurring in each installment of the "Skywalker saga". The lightsaber's distinct appearance was created using rotoscoping for the original films, and with digital effects for the prequel and sequel trilogies.

    Health and Fitness

    Wouldn't say I've been bed-bound but I've had a cold/flu* for about 3 weeks now. Just lingers around and can't shift it. *it's manflu but worse, potentially.
  4. Well that's an odd angle to take in any sense. Quite clear what 'ethnic background' means and is quite a common term.

    Yep, push enough in a polite but frank and direct way and they'll take some action. I've learnt that it's not really fair to be abusive or rude in emails to them. Hopefully whoever you deal with will see that you're just a customer who wants to help a relative out, and you're not someone who's asking for the world and spouting your mouth off in a fit of rage to someone at the other end of the phone or computer.

    Jesus, sorry to hear that for your mother-in-law @Bluewolf. What an absolute palaver on all aspects. Shame the Fire Brigade didn't know about the key, surprised they didn't just bring it down with a big red key. I'm amazed Kingston Council say it takes over a month to get a lock sorted! I'm guessing she's in rented accommodation by the sounds of it. I'd persist with speaking to them and constantly letting on to them it's a safeguarding issue for a frail, physically vulnerable lady who clearly has care needs before the fall has even happened. That's obscene to think it takes best part of 28 working days to get a lock change. I work in housing albeit not for a local authority, but there's bound to be a department that can arrange for emergency lock changes within 24 hrs. Shocked if there isn't. And given its a communal block, it's their responsibility to ensure the safety of the block and get a fix in within a certain time of it being reported. Alternatively, I'd get the flat door lock fixed yourself to a better standard with a better function, and then stick a complaint in and ask for you to be reimbursed. You're well within you're rights. While you're at it, let them know you'll be taking it to the Housing Ombudsman if they don't reply or repair in a more reasonable time.
  7. Yeah that was a good one. It's funny seeing the reactions from everyone.
  8. Did miss it or was Hamilton not involved?

    NFL

    Yeah I've noticed a lot of games are only won by a few points or 1 TD. It seems like it'll come back to bite you. The recovery in that game though was incredible. Everything pointed to having absolutely no chance at HT. Belief never seemed to be lost and Colts just capitulated.
  11. something that is unlikely to get old quickly either. Very engaging. Some of the contestants appear a bit thick but are probably just playing their own game. Amanda has played a blinder up til now. Glad the likes of Jon, Matt, Theo, Ivan went early. They were annoying me.

    NFL

    Crazy game tonight between Vikings and Colts. Vikings were 33-0 at half-time, then 36-7 shortly after. Vikings have pulled it back to 36-36 just before the 2-min warning. Proper game of 2 halves. @DeadLinesman you're a Vikings man aren't you?

    Cricket

    Rehan Ahmed, the youngest debutant for England at 18 y/o since 1921, took a couple of wickets. Proud moment for Leicestershire too as it's been a hell of a long time since they had a player play for England. In Bangladesh vs India, Zakir got a ton on his debut but they look set to lose. Aus vs SA could be over within a few days...
  14. I heard about this on the comms for Newcastle vs Brisbane - something about the TV coverage of the games? Had it on in the background so didn't fully hear it. But there was some fan walk-out. Guess this is what you refer to as they mentioned it'll happen at all the games this weekend...?
  15. Shocking stuff. Fans overstepped the mark hugely there. Utter chaos and madness.
