I do @Stan but as I said above "this is about the 20th (or more) from the imaginary TV Licence board I have blocked but they still pop up with a different email code..." I signed up with Ofcom & ICO and if I have any issues like above I will report them but the Spammers have a 100 ways of getting around being reported, it's amazing who Ofcom/ICO fine like Banks etc but money to them is nothing and they pay the fine and just continue on, this is the latest company that ICO fined. Check the link below and look at some of the names that Enforcement Action was taken by Ofcom/ICO, the mind boggles. https://ico.org.uk/action-weve-taken/enforcement/

Grave of 'real-life Asterix' who fought Caesar found amid a trove of weapons and possessions in West Sussex Henry Bodkin © PA 'Unique find': the artefacts have been carefully studied for the last decade - PA The grave of a real-life Asterix containing what is believed to be an ancient Gallic warrior who came to Britain and fought Julius Caesar has been discovered, archaeologists have announced. The unique and highly-elaborate resting place was found on a West Sussex building site. The Iron Age warrior, buried with his glamorous and ornate head-dress, is thought to have been a refugee French Gallic fighter who fled Julius Caesar's legionnaires as they swept across continental Europe in about 50BC. Archaeologists have described the discovery, which will go on display at Chichester's Novium Museum in January 2020, as "the most elaborately equipped warrior grave ever found in England". © PA Part of a headdress from a helmet belonging to the warrior The grave was found during excavations ahead of a Berkeley Homes housing development in North Bersted in 2008, but it has taken years of conservation and scientific analysis to prepare the artefacts for display. Dr Melanie Giles, senior lecturer in archaeology at the University of Manchester, said: "It really is absolutely a unique find in the British Isles and in the wider continent, we don't have another burial that combines this quality of weaponry and Celtic art with a date that puts it around the time of Caesar's attempted conquest of Britain. "We will probably never know his name, what we know from the archaeology is that he is either someone from eastern England who may have gone and fought with the Gauls that we know was a problem for Caesar, we were allies with the French, helping them with their struggle against him.

"Also he brings with him his kit, extraordinary weaponry, a beautiful sword which is not like the swords we have, a new technology, style and design and helmet which is absolutely unique with these wonderful Celtic openwork crests which exaggerate his height and make him absolutely fabulous." https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/grave-of-real-life-asterix-who-fought-caesar-found-amid-trove-of-weapons-and-possessions-in-west-sussex/ar-AAEHkoJ?li=BBoPWjQ

Virgil van Dijk: Liverpool defender says Ballon d'Or would be 'big honour' Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk says winning the Ballon d'Or would be "a big honour" but he can still get better. Van Dijk, 28, is one of the favourites to win the award for the world's best player after being instrumental in Liverpool's Champions League victory and Premier League title challenge. "If I am rewarded for the season I had last year that would be unbelievable and I would be so proud," he said. "But I feel there is still more to come. I can get more out of me." FULL STORY

Not you was it @Toinho Van carrying £112m of drugs crashes into a police car at the station A van loaded with more than 270kg (600lbs) of meth has crashed into parked police cars in Sydney. The smash happened in front of a police station in one of the city's suburbs on Monday morning. Detectives questioned the 28-year-old driver before conducting a search of the van and discovering drugs with a street value of A$200 million (£112.4m).

Glad they finally achieved it as the first launch was a failure, the more countries in the Space explorations the better for the future of mankind.

Aye, you can see it better with this clip, I think he spotted the keeper off his line and thought "Fuck it, why not...", the same as Beckham when he scored from the half-way line.

Injury Room.

The heavy rain bit by the Met boys is right but 'a moderate breeze' my arse, it's blowing a gale outside.

Rangers: Daniel Candeias holds talks with Turkish club Rangers have "reluctantly but respectfully" allowed Daniel Candeias to talk to a Turkish side about a possible move, says Steven Gerrard. The Portuguese winger, 31, is in the final year of his Ibrox contract. He was not involved in either leg of Rangers' 10-0 Europa League first qualifying round rout of St Joseph's. Speaking after Thursday's 6-0 home win, manager Gerrard said he wanted Candeias to "stay and fight for the shirt", but feels the player "wants to move on". The club Candeias is poised to join is reported to be Genclerbirligi and the Ibrox manager added: "I had a conversation on Wednesday with Daniel and he said he wanted to go and speak to a team in Turkey. We've had an approach and we had a real adult conversation. FULL REPORT

Money, shoes, poop, and other highlights from the 796 items we’ve left on the moon Sara Chodosh © Infographic by Sara Chodosh Data from the NASA Catalogue of Manmade Material on the Moon Humans have a bad habit of leaving a trace wherever they go. The moon is no exception. Sure, we left some ceremonial flags held aloft by wire in lieu of a brisk wind to blow them, but the most telling things we've left aren't what you see in commemorative photos. The official NASA Catalogue of Manmade Material on the Moon lists 796 items, 765 of which are from American missions. Some as small as a pair of nail clippers, others consist of entire lunar rovers and probes that long ago crashed into the surface. We're not totally sure where all these items are, but they're definitely up there, cluttering the otherwise barren lunar landscape. Yet somehow maps of the artefacts left on the moon never look that cluttered. Most of the dots you can see are fairly large items. The Ranger spacecraft, for instance, was a series of uncrewed missions in the 1960s to get images of the moon. Not all of them made it (Ranger 3 missed the surface entirely), but 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 all crashed into the surface. Similarly the Lunar Orbiters, well, orbited. They took photos in part to scope out potential landing sites for the first crewed missions, then came tumbling down once they were done. MORE

July 12, 2019 HiRISE Spots Curiosity Rover at Mars' 'Woodland Bay' NASA's Curiosity Mars rover can be seen in this image taken from space on May 31, 2019, by the HiRISE camera aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. In the image, Curiosity appears as a bluish speck. Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech A dramatic Martian landscape can be seen in a new image taken from space, showing NASA's Curiosity rover examining a location called "Woodland Bay." It's just one of many stops the rover has made in an area referred to as the "clay-bearing unit" on the side of Mount Sharp, a 3-mile-tall (5-kilometer-tall) mountain inside of Gale Crater. The image was taken on May 31, 2019, by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera aboard NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO). In the image, Curiosity appears as a bluish speck. Vera Rubin Ridge cuts across the scene north of the rover, while a dark patch of sand lies to the northeast. Look carefully at the inset image, and you can make out what it is likely Curiosity's "head," technically known as the remote sensing mast. A bright spot appears in the upper-left corner of the rover. At the time this image was acquired, the rover was facing 65 degrees counterclockwise from north, which would put the mast in about the right location to produce this bright spot. Mirror-like reflections off smooth surfaces show up as especially bright spots in HiRISE images. For the camera to see these reflections on the rover, the Sun and MRO need to be in just the right locations. This enhanced-color image of Curiosity shows three or four distinct bright spots that are likely such reflections. The University of Arizona in Tucson operates HiRISE, which was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp. in Boulder, Colorado. JPL, a division of Caltech in Pasadena, California, manages the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. https://mars.nasa.gov/mro

July 19, 2019 Hubble Spots a Stunning Spiral Galaxies come in many shapes and sizes. One of the key galaxy types we see in the universe is the spiral galaxy, as demonstrated in an especially beautiful way by the subject of this Hubble Space Telescope image, NGC 2985. NGC 2985 lies over 70 million light-years from the solar system in the constellation of Ursa Major (the Great Bear). The intricate, near-perfect symmetry on display here reveals the incredible complexity of NGC 2985. Multiple tightly wound spiral arms widen as they whirl outward from the galaxy’s bright core, slowly fading and dissipating until these majestic structures disappear into the emptiness of intergalactic space, bringing a beautiful end to their starry splendor. Over eons, spiral galaxies tend to run into other galaxies, often resulting in mergers. These coalescing events scramble the winding structures of the original galaxies, smoothing and rounding their shape. These objects possess a beauty all their own, distinct from the spiral galaxies from whence they came. Text credit: ESA (European Space Agency) Image credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, L. Ho

Football was a man's game in them days, batter shite out of each other on the pitch and have a pint after in the bar and have a good laugh, nowadays you just have to point a finger on a players chest and he would go down as if he had been hit by a truck and roll all over the place.

Just watched a drama/thriller on Netflix Secret Obsession - 2019 with the wife, it got a shite vote from IMDb (4.4/10) but we quite enjoyed it, depends on one's taste really but with the wife jumping here and there I would give this a 7.5/10.

King Tut’s coffin will be restored for the first time since the discovery in 1922 Kassidy Vavra King Tut’s coffin will be restored for the first time since it was discovered in 1922, the Antiques Ministry of Egypt announced. The Antiques Ministry announced Wednesday King Tutankhamun was transported from his tomb in Luxor to the Grand Egyptian Museum for restoration. After the restoration, the coffin will be displayed in the museum exhibition of the King Tutankhamun collection at the Grand Egyptian Museum, Dr Eltayeb Abbas, director of general archaeological affairs said in a statement from the museum. It will appear alongside other golden coffins that are currently at the Cairo Egyptian Museum in a complete collection at the official opening. “The coffin was moved amidst security procedures and under the supervision of the conservators and archaeologists in cooperation with the Tourism and Antiquities Police,” the museum said in a statement. King Tut, born in 1341 B.C.E., served as the pharaoh of Egypt beginning when he was just nine years old in 1332 B.C.E., according to Biography. He ruled for 10 years, until around 1323 B.C.E. when he died at the age of 19. Related Slideshow: Cursed tombs and discoveries through the years (Provided by Photo Services) SLIDES 1/18 Little was known about his life and death until 1922 when British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered his tomb in 1922. Inside the tomb was his coffin — containing his body, which had been mummified for more than 3,000 years. Although bone fragments in his skull led scientists to initially believe King Tut had died from a blow to the head by political rivals, later investigations in 2006 including a full body scan indicated the skull damage happened after his death. Scientists later discovered he had malaria and was disabled, requiring a cane to walk. It was later suggested he died from gangrene that resulted from a broken leg, according to Biography. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/offbeat/king-tuts-coffin-will-be-restored-for-first-time-since-discovery-in-1922/ar-AAEyPmx
