Something to keep everyone busy during the international break :)
When is a band not a band and when is a solo artist not a solo artist?.....
Always intrigued me that 'Bryan Adams' is always classed (and named) as a solo artist yet he's been with pretty the same band most of his career. It's not him plus a large bunch of rotating support musicians.
Conversely, The Eels are classed as band when it's really just Mark Everett plus rotating musicians.
I mean, Queen could have just been 'Freddie Mercury' and some other blokes.
Same with the Beatles and so on.....

Thread | Masochists?
at 14:43 8 Apr 2024
Having gone to the game on Saturday, my first at LR this season, and taken both my kids of which it was the very first game for my 6 year old daughter ("I don't like that team in yellow" she proclaimed at the end), I have booked tickets for the three of us against PNE.
We've not seen QPR win at LR in four visits (all defeats) so it surely must change at some point, hell, I'd even take a score draw......

Thread | Seems to be a new style of text scams going around
at 12:19 18 Jan 2024
Recently I've be getting a few texts such as;
"Table for four booked on 24/02/2024 at the Touchal Arms.
Please click on this link www.xxxxxxx.com for more details or reply STOP if you don't want any updates"
Well, I've not booked a table for dinner so it's easy to reply STOP but this then confirms your phone number is live.
Clicking on the web link would be even worse I presume.
The more sophisticated they become, the more aware and vigilant we have to be.

Thread | Unfair dismissal?
at 17:25 7 Jun 2023
Long story short, my missus has been having a long running battle with her company (large well known global company) mainly over the fact she can only do a certain shift pattern due to having to leave at a certain time (around 5pm) to pick our kids up from the child minder. They have refused to accommodate.
She's never looked to be doing less hours, just the shift pattern that starts early and ends early rather than late start>late finish.
It's been going on for ages and I've just found out she's being dismissed for stealing company property.... apple juice.
We'll speak more when she gets home but surely this is absolutely bonkers???

Thread | Loft roof-boards.... advice please
at 17:17 21 Nov 2022
No, not QPR related but just after some advice please.
Using this photo from the internet as reference, my loft has insulation wadding in-between the roof struts you can see at the top of the picture.
Thing is, over time a few of the waddings partially or mostly come loose then hang down and I keep having to shove them back into place.
So, my plan is to put boarding up not only to hold the insulation wadding in place but also make the loft look a bit neater.
I can't see any boards needing to be thick as the wadding is not that heavy, just enough to hold it in place with screws so anything around 3mm will probably suffice I'd guess.
However, my dilemma is choice of material. I was thinking of MDF but not sure as apparently gives of gasses over time. The loft is well ventilated and access to it is via a hatch (with draught seals) so I would imagine any gasses would just vent out of the house rather than down into the house.
So, is MDF OK or a no-no and something else recommend?
Thanks in advance.

Thread | Rishi Sunak is to be the next PM
at 16:13 24 Oct 2022
He was elected without a vote from party members which makes me wonder why we had to have party members voting last time and not this time?
UK's first British Asian prime minister and at 42 is the youngest PM in over 200 years.
How long will this one last?
(ironically "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC is blaring out of my speakers as I typed this thread!)
Earlier, Boris Johnson pulled out of the leadership race, saying he had the support needed to stand but it would not be "the right thing to do".
This coming from a man who has no idea of what that even means. More like he didn't have the support and had to save face. Just fk off and wither away, please.

Thread | Liz Truss resigns
at 13:35 20 Oct 2022
Never thought I'd do a 'Liz Truss is the new PM' and a 'Liz Truss resigns' thread in the space of 6 weeks!
Her leadership campaign lasted longer than her actual tenure. What a mess. Hopefully we can have some stability, this cannot go on.
