I started watching the second series of the BBC's "Am I being unreasonable?" and initially decided to give up on it.
With all the "Memento" style flashbacks and surreal goings-on, it requires a lot of concentration, but then I decided to give it another go and was really glad I had.
The humour is sophisticated, works on lots of different levels, and lurks here, there and everywhere. It's definitely worth persevering with, in my humble opinion đź‘Ś.
While acknowledging that he is not currently good enough to start in the Championship, I think it's encouraging that, at least sometimes, he makes a very meaningful contribution. We've had development players come off the bench and look completely lost.
Also, I think his passion and drive mean that he can improve.
New Zealand actually pushed India hard, especially considering that Matt Henry, the tournament's leading wicket taker, was out with an injury. India only won with an over to spare and might have lost if NZ hadn't dropped a catch at a key moment. Jamieson dropped a regulation catch when India were trying to rebuild after a flurry of wickets.
I haven't seen any greenfinches for years - there is a disease which is currently affecting their numbers - and I think I've only seen redpolls twice ever.
One of the reasons we chose our current house is that it has a mature silver birch in the back garden. That brings in quite a lot of birds, including some unusual ones; we once, briefly, had a visit from some waxwings.
Good thread! I wasn't sure either so I had a look for what the RSPB says. It's below.
I'd leave the boxes for this season. If you hang around near them now, you might cause any birds which are already nesting to desert their nests, unfortunately.
I'm not sure if it's really essential for nestboxes to always be clean because quite a few birds happily reuse old nests built by other species.
It is important to clean feeders regularly because they can carry a disease which badly affects finches :(
Nest box cleaning It’s helpful to clean your bird boxes out after each nesting season, so that they’re ready for the next breeding season. We recommend cleaning them annually, between September and January at the very latest. Make sure you check the box’s contents before you proceed with cleaning, as some birds can nest later or earlier in the season.
Use gloves to empty out any remnants of the previous nest, before pouring boiling water on the inside of the nest – this can prevent the risk of parasites in nests the following season. Make sure the box is fully dried before you put it back up. Please note: if any unhatched eggs are found in the box, they can only legally be removed from September to January in England and Wales and from August to January in Scotland, and they must be destroyed once removed.
In this match, the speed and power hitting of these two giants of the game is such that, genuinely, I checked that the playback speed was set to normal. It was!
This is heavy metal table tennis, brilliant yet utterly brutal
I'd heard of the band PFM but was totally unfamiliar with their oeuvre, so spurred on by this excellent thread, I had a rummage around in their back catalogue.
I stumbled across this lively slice of instrumental prog metal / symphonic prog.
I didn't go to that school but I know it pretty well because, as an adult, I played 8 a side football there on Thursday evenings, for many years.
I went to Aylesbury Grammar School. Man, did they work you hard! I used to have a ridiculous amount of homework
My mate's brother also went to AGS. He was in a punk band and one of their songs went: "I'm going grow up to be a s3x p3rv3rt, It's the only thing I learned in an all-boys school".
Make of that what you will. My experience there was pretty dull in comparison, but then he was in a lower year to me...
We'll never know the truth and I don't want to fall out with you or anyone else, or end up spending hours arguing about this, but I must add that it wasn't just Hillary who came to that conclusion. The CIA did too.
"US intelligence agencies have concluded that Russia interfered in last month’s presidential election to boost Donald Trump’s bid for the White House, according to reports.
A secret CIA assessment found that Russian operatives covertly interfered in the election campaign in an attempt to ensure the Republican candidate’s victory, the Washington Post reported, citing officials briefed on the matter.
A separate report in the New York Times said intelligence officials had a “high confidence” that Russia was involved in hacking related to the election".
