It's OK, the Express printed a clear, unequivocal and unmissable retraction to their MASSIVE FRONT-PAGE EXCLUSIVE ABOUT A MUSLIM PLOT TO BLOW UP HERR KIDDY-FIDDLER. So that's fine then.

Can't even spell "clever" either.

"Reading"

All righty then... http://theoatmeal.com/comics/working_home

Found me some good mates to watch the games with dahn 'ere.

Madeleine McCann. Pass it on.

The problem with the Netherlands is it's just so Dutch.

Britain is shit in many ways, which is what prompted me to move abroad in the first place. Turns out the rest of the world is shit too, which is what prompted me to move back.

What's the difference between a dictatorship like North Korea where the leader cannot be questioned by any means and a so called democracy where the leader cannot be questioned by any means? The difference is at least the Koreans have a sense of humour about it all: http://selebspy.wordpress.com/2010/09/28/l...of-north-korea/

This is the sort of thing only an utter utter fucktard would get wound up about.

Just flicked onto that for a while as Sky Sports is on a free trial thingummy this weekend. Canny.

Quoted from the Independent, but still, it's good to see it being reported even if it heaps pressure on us. Likewise the words from Robert, good to see he's not turned out bitter about us.

And as mentioned earlier: German league is on its head so far too. Where do we go for a decent league? Scotland and Russia?

I like him as the host of that "Genius" thing, both on radio and TV. But that's mainly because none of the core material is his.

Aye, that was fun when we were in town for the Leverkusen match. Every time they brought a new Kranz it was finished before they'd even left the table.

Frankfurt is pretty dull, it's a business city first and foremost, although the old town - such as it is - is pretty. Cologne is a bit better, at least it has some tourist sights like the Cathedral (and the extensive Christmas markets, not that that helps you much at this time of year ), but even then I reckon it's pretty unspectacular outside of a few locations. Selling it well, aren't I? There's definitely things to do along that way, though - between(ish) Frankfurt and Cologne you've got the drive alongside the Rhine between Mainz and Koblenz (and beyond), for example, which is really nice as long as you're not looking to make rapid progress along the Autobahn. Off out for a run now but I'll have a think about it (and hope that Isegrim comes along in the meantime with actual knowledge rather than lived-in-the-country-5-years-ago knowledge . Hotel-wise, if you don't mind cheap-and-cheerful and you've got the car, Formule 1 (http://www.hotelformule1.com) apparently has branches in Saarbrücken and (near) Cologne. There's one in Kassel too but that'd be a bit out of your way... Otherwise maybe try the websites of chains like Accor and Ibis.

This looks like a secret code post. Is Stevie doing rude things to you next Friday? I hear he's planning to take her up the Northern Line.

Bring it on - it feels like it's been a long week (and that was just the first act of Les Mis). Fella's away at his parents for the weekend, too, so shameful slobbery beckons.

I actually thought this was going to be about Croatia. Now where's that "Signs you're middle-class" thread?

personally I think Australian Dentists are the best - I've been in the Marathon Man chair in lots of places - Yanks are pretty good but the cost is unbeleivable! Rob blatantly scoffing all the boiled sweets he's meant to give out on take-off and landing tbh.

When, just out of interest? Wondering how current the stats are.

Hardly like. But do carry on with the "world vs. J69" schtick if it suits you. Do you pick him up on it like? Because ignoring it is almost as bad as condoning it tbh Oh noes, I'm an enabler! Aye, I do on occasion if I think he's being a twat, like I would with anyone and like I'd expect people to do with me. If I've missed the occasional instance then I apologise wholeheartedly in my apparent role as Forum Police.

I thought it was potentially ill-advised.
