Odd.

You're more than welcome to come and watch me if you like

Oh yeah, there's always leftovers because we always over-order . Rather than that not have anything left! There's always so much variety and choice with Chinese restaurants. Love having any of tea-smoked chicken, chicken satay in peanut butter sauce, barbeuce spare ribs, chicken in black bean sauce, sesame prawn toast in addition to the duck...

Any of you guys ever cooked Lamb Kleftiko, or any kind of slow-cooked lamb dish? Thinking of doing it for Christmas and want to practice at least a couple of times before then to try and perfect it (for 4 people). Any recommendations on best part of lamb to use? Tips while cooking i.e. spices to use, time to cook, any nifty tricks would be appreciated . We do like our food quite spicy so will be adding Indian spices to it as standard...

We do this with any roast we do to help the potatoes cook really crisply, too. Nothing worse when it comes to roasts when the potatoes aren't done right. Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. Beautiful. Duck and pancakes is essential for any Chinese we go for. Stuff myself with it before getting on to the other courses . Lots of hoisin sauce, bit of cucumber, lots of duck. Perfect. I love the way they cook their pancakes too.

holy fuck you are missing out mate. Cooked right it can be just a perfect food to eat. Coming up next later this week in our Diwali savoury snack selection is Chakri: All made from scratch. We make hundreds. Should last for days. They don't

Yeah, you are aware of the UK government are like, right

I didn't mean it like that. Just meant there were others who could have been chosen.

Of all the ones to mention, you chose Ched Evans who's conviction was quashed

Alright MUFC.

Her Stone Cold Steve Austin impression could do with some work.

Bloody hell that's brave

Haha funnily enough I took my weight for the first time in months (probably way before first lockdown). I weigh in at a light 15st. Not sure what my goal or aim would be, even by start of December. Maybe half a stone? Or a few pounds?

Keane is a prick. Loves to give it out and will speak his mind. That bit I don't mind of course. But when someone dares to speak out against him or have a debate with him, he hates it. Not a fan of someone who gives it out but can't take it. Dickheads. Makes them look weak. He's clearly just jealous that Arsenal are getting their shit together and have some air of stability as opposed to the shite he has to watch week in, week out with that melon in charge. Cahill is right especially talking about lack of leaders & lack of influence. Nothing wrong with what he said at all. Clearly tries to say that Arsenal learn from their mistakes and where they go wrong. Man Utd don't. Keane gets offended at it.

Voter suppression is illegal isn't it? Disgusting.

We've been forced in to it. Pereira was of course already injured. Ndidi then out for 12 weeks from Sept. Soyuncu out til Jan after injury on international duty. Castagne now out for a few weeks after a hamstring injury. Maddison returned after injury against Man City then picked up another one. Vardy was out injured for a week or 2. Evans was injured, didn't play any games before the last international break, then played 3 internationals somehow. Ideal situation we'd have loved to have the option of rotation through choice. Quite simply, we haven't been able to. They've pretty much all been enforced. All well and good to talk about protecting players and I'm sure every manager has the wellbeing of their own players as one of the top priorities. But with shorter pre-seasons and regular influx of games, plus the most stupid decision to add an international game in the international break hasn't helped anyone, I don't think. So yeah managers need to manage but the demand on them/players could have been eased. 5 subs wasn't the only answer.

Precisely proving my point, really . They have a bigger pool of talent to rely on if extra subs are/were allowed...

That quite obviously favours the bigger clubs though with bigger quality squads and better players to call up on...

Just read this while on a Teams meeting at work and someone just said they've done this

Don't mind if you nuke Bristol for that rave but do it after next August please. Cheers.

Yep, been something to speculate about since all the rules came in months ago anyway. My sister-in-law's dad had a colleague at his office who tested positive. Colleague had been at work, had symptoms then stopped going to work, took a test, found out the results on Saturday and tested positive. Sister-in-law's dad only has to isolate but not advised to take a test (although we have said he should try and get one anyway). I don't get it either.

Australia with 0 cases recorded in a day since June 9th. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-54768038

Idiots.

Another appointee purely on who someone knows as opposed to what they know. Great.

Information overload when it came to the slides earlier as well. If anything it implicated the government anyway because it showed the rise in cases from earlier this month when a lockdown could have been brought in and when it was suggested by Starmer/scientists, which logically ties in with what @Inverted said.
