That Brexit referendum thread needs re-running, doesn't it?  |

Having a non-smoking area in a pub garden is like having a non-urinating area in a swimming pool. |

Stuff like that with errors can sometimes be worth more in future, to collectors. Like double-headed coins. |

We shouldn't be using plastic bottles anyway. Microplastic particles are everywhere, even in our bodies.
We should be collecting our draft beer from pubs in earthenware jugs, and drinking tap water, like in the good old days. |

The principle is good. Remember when beer cans had detachable ring-pulls? They used to get thrown away, and were razor-sharp if you trod on one on the beach. So the packaging industry introduced a ring-pull that stayed attached to the can - result. I'm sure lots of people complained about them at the time, though. |

It is actually the result of an EU directive. And since the bottle manufacturers sell to a worldwide market, they will not be making special non-tethered bottle tops for Brexit Britain. This has recently been noted with fury in the pages of the Daily Telegraph and the Evening Standard. |

Sounds shocking. Better vote Conservative to stop this flagrant abuse of the benefits system. Oh -- hang on . . . . |

Vienna much smaller than I'd expected. Saw a few posh horses poncing about. Went to one of the famous coffee houses, which was frankly nothing special. Very expensive place. |

Thread | Help identifying a famous football painting
at 20:55 21 Mar 2024
I'm trying to find a copy of a famous football painting. Mr Google can't help. It's a crowd scene of one away supporter wearing the wrong colours in the home stand and shouting, and ALL the other supporters staring angrily at him. It's kind of cartoon-ish, and possibly from the 1930s. Most people on here would probably recognise it if they saw it, but I'm damned if I can find it. Any ideas?
(It's definitely not a Lowry) |

Just what I was thinking - looks like a WWI gun sticking out of a bunker. |

To resurrect this thread, can anyone explain to me why - and when - *asterisks* have replaced "inverted commas" in text-speak? I don't recall ever being notified about this change. |
