He/him. Reader and a Brentford fan.
Re: politics at football matches - Chelsea fans are still chanting 'F*ck the Pope and the IRA' away from home.

I don't think it'll last: with more & more players trained as long throwers, they can simply hurl the ball back down the touchline towards halfway. Kayode at Brentford is already using his long throw to relieve attacking pressure.

Jon Newsome's elder brother who emigrated, perhaps? Sheffield Wednesday and dirty Leeds. I have a feeling he also played for the University of Sheffield team in my time there.

Was the pod's history of vasectomy chat just a cunning scheme to earn all that lucrative advertising money on offer from dog castrators?

And the brothers are SO appalling.

Jen's homelessness & then losing her temporary accommodation because of spite, and then going out on a bender with Nic but WHO'S LOOKING AFTER HARRY?

Watched all of season 1 and the first 2 episodes of season 2. Taking a breather now as I do find it very dark.

I'm kind of surprised they slotted it into the comedy category. I mean, drama is standing right there.

Just started it. Mind blown by episode 4 of season 1.

Are ebooks coming to the UK version of bookshop.org soon? I got excited by the news yesterday, but can't find the app on the AppStore yet.

Never change, Neal.

It's a very cute door. Does it have a teeny-tiny doorbell and letterbox? And how does Dilys the slightly-different-sized cat ever manage to travel between rooms?

Thank you for revisiting the rainbow armbands controversy after Friday's attempt: it is much appreciated.

Not the most difficult, but Grandma did not enjoy my rendition of Country File.

And as Jordan pointed out, the actual wording of what the rainbow laces campaign asks players to sign up to is incredibly tame - so if you can't even agree to THAT, it's pretty tricky to find explanations beyond bigotry.
December 8, 2024 at 3:58 PM
I agree too. I think at a bare minimum we should expect Barry to be allowed to make the case against the laces-refusers, but Troy shut that right down, and then he was never allowed to come back to his point.

My main thought is to wonder who came up with the cover design mimicking the 80s kidslit phenomena which was the Choose Your Own Adventure books...

I agree with him. Is it known whether he had the ending of the sequence planned when he started the first one?

Really enjoyed the Kipling chapter: it's made me want to take another look at Stalky & Co, which I was NOT a fan of first time around.

Maaaaaybe Snap, but if so, it's a fair bit later than you suggest.

You can't remember if it was a boy or a girl?

300-char limit scuppered me listing Louie's Lot by E. W. Hildick - for the hilarious selection process to get a gig as a milkman's assistant.
Dance On My Grave by Aidan Chambers - first time I saw gay characters represented in books.
