    Those all sound great to be honest and certainly something that won't go out of demand or publicity these days. Plenty of stuff to reference to! Good luck.
  2. 3 more cancelled https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/53020714

  4. But as it was, it was a draw in the first leg and straight away Klopp has said he won't be fielding a strong team in the replay

    Could have given us a smile.
  6. He's said he felt Shrewsbury were screwed over as such because of Liverpool's choice to play a weakened squad, and yes that is what it was regardless of circumstances. They were hard-done financially as a result. Purposely playing a weakened squad is against the rules (happy to be corrected on this; I know it's the case for league competitions). Playing a weakened squad ruined the integrity of the match and occasion by their expectations/standards and mainly for their fans. Opinionated and wanting the best for his team and fans? Yes. Absolute prick? Nah.

    Get with the times, Karen!
  8. The RATM one is hilariously ironic. What kind of 'machine' did they think they were raging against
  9. I can't disagree with the final statements It goes back to the different time, modern-day lenses thing. The letters to Hitler, for me, just personified Gandhi's calmer approach which is wildly different to Hitler's. Gandhi wanted universal peace (ever the optimist!). I think he wrote in the letter that despite calling him 'Dear Friend...' he said it because he has no foes, not because it was as a legit friend. I don't know if this is a fair comparison but it's like the Dalai Lama these days - also striving for world peace so you probably won't ever see him get in some heated argument regardless who he speaks to and regardless if that person is 100% cunt material. It's like a 'don't stoop to their level' trait.
  10. Gandhi campaigned for peace all his life and was definitely not liking of Hitler. I'm not sure where that's come from but whenever I hear people talk about Gandhi that's one thing that is never said. On what basis did he like Hitler? They're 2 totally different characters in history and had 2 totally different directions. I don't think you could get 2 more differing people! I read the other day (when all the Colston statue furore came about) that he wrote to Hitler pleading him to not go through with WWII and when he did, wrote to him again saying his actions were wrong and it's not the right thing to do, essentially. Obviously in more savage words than that. I'm not sure of the paedophile thing either. Based on what? I am aware that people used Gandhi's name for the 1984 Sikh Golden Temple attacks and that his actions in SA were akin to power in white hands and I don't agree with that at all. Like you say though, modern lenses makes those kinds of actions utterly terrible and despite liking Gandhi I can't vouch for what he did at that time in his life. But when it comes to Hitler and Gandhi, I can't agree that he liked Hitler or that he was a paedophile. Hitler wanted terror and was on the far-right. Gandhi campaigned for peace and was totally against civil disobedience at a time when India was under strict British rule and where his own people were persecuted by British people...
  11. I think so, also with light filtering and specific lenses but even so, to capture it and then be able to refine it looks amazing.
  12. (not my photo but a friend on FB).
  13. Think that's been happening for a few weeks. Crafty from the government but I won't put anything past them these days as a way to con/mislead the public...
  14. Standard Chartered is British I thought?
  15. 55 UK deaths reported in last 24 hours. Lowest number of deaths and cases since start of lockdown. Monday figures usually are lower because if weekend numbers but even so, it's promising nonetheless.
