Seriously, this puts the fear of fucking god into me. I've just bought my (final?) house and feeling content that I've met my aims and can calm the fuck down now and work for a lifestyle rather than live for work and then there's going to be a fuckin global war or some shit. This will do to the US international reputation, what Boris did to the UK. OR Everyone will shit themselves and not want to poke the monkey. I'm hoping for the second so I can enjoy my end days sinking pints and pies and watching us win the champions league

So, This year, I've been mostly wondering why , when sat on the throne pushing out a curler , my piss is now deflecting off the underside of the toilet seat and either: 1. Running down the toilet itself and making an unsightly pool on the floor or 2. disaster - wetting the back of my trousers - thankfully when at home. Anyone else? Pre-empting any helpful questions: 1. No , it's definitely a new thing on the same toilets 2. I dont think it's changed - it was normal weather too , the only thing thats changed is the depth of hang of the balls - they are definitely half inching closer to the floor every 2- 3 years. 3. I am about 10kg heavier than this time 3 years ago. (94kg, 5ft 11)

That's not the only fine dining in Heaton , though the other one I found a bit wanky - NEST on chillingham road. Never been to My Delhi - how was it? I know I'm late to the show - but in case someone searches. I'm getting fatter year on year and here's my top £££'s ones: House of Tides (taster menu) -swing bridge Peace and Loaf (taster menu some nights "normal menus on others") - jesmond Rio (cheaper but still expensive, if you booze) - jesmond one has marginally better food imo because its busier so you get more choice - but the quayside one is proper lush too. Cafe Andaluz (town) - cheaper on theatre nights, they dont ask to see tickets if you take the pre-theatre option. ££'s Lezzet (Benfield Road / Four Lane Ends) Broad Chare (really nice , pub food with a posh edge) £'s Nudo Noodle House near pink lane (not the chain) Great sushi and oriental food at a great price They are my go to places the £££'s ones are really top imo. -
A lot of money for someone with little game time last year and an ACL injury. Is the curse of NUFC (injuries to new players) finally behind us - I think this signing will tell!!

Just hearing that in Norwich conservative office, they had a delivery of 20,000+ pamphlets on Monday, saying that people do not need ID to vote this year and have distributed all of them since. Tory HQ saying its a terrible mistake. Found this link : Norwich Conservative leaflet says voter ID not needed | Norwich Evening News (eveningnews24.co.uk)

I sat there for the Women's game this weekend, they are pretty good seats. nice clear view and enough elevation to see the other side's line markings.

I'm assuming you're buying for you and a family member or friend? The way to do this is to both have membership accounts online , then you "link" to them as friends and family - then when one of you gets on you can buy tickets for both members and they can be together at the same time. We had to do this for Wembley and once its done, its done forever. They have to be people you trust though, obvs - or they could nick your allocation for matches with more than 1 ticket allowed per member (cup games)

Write up on nufc.co.uk now Newcastle United - In pictures: Newcastle United Women score six at St. James' (nufc.co.uk) -
Only read a couple of pages here. But for me, this was purely fitness / tiredness and them playing almost exactly the same way we do. I don't think it was a poor performance by us, more as a remarkable one from the opposition (which I suppose is how teams must feel about us!) They were quicker to the ball - Gordon looked slow (and he isn't its just in comparison) and we missed Longstaff imo - once again teaching me a lesson that I don't know anything about team selection. I have questioned his inclusion so many times (same with Willock and murphy) and everytime I do the lads have a screamer. We had glimpses of this against Brentford (I watched that match) where if the team plays to close us down as aggressively as we do, we seem to lose options to release the ball very quickly. For the first half it looked like Brentford had "learnt how to deal" , but then they collapsed in the second, thankfully. From my view Toney should have had 2 goals by half time , not even counting the pen. Last edit - Also, I thought we saw something different from Howe in the Brentford game - he lost patience and made some pretty drastic changes compared to what I've seen before. Wilson and Isak seem to have had a great understanding coached into them already, they were immense in the second half. All that said, we've won away from home in London more than once - these in themselves are points I never would have expected - We'll bounce back at home, no bother.

I'm going with this, as soon as I saw it I thought I'd seen it last year in the season break , he runs up a hill after that bit. He may well be in France now, but that video isn't recent.

Great family day out for anyone with nippers. The atmosphere is "in development" much as the team is , but I was really surprised by the attendance. Amanda and co were in attendance and gave a good presentation at half time. The match had to be delayed by 15 minutes due to the box office still having a queue of hundreds.

You lads read too much twatter. is it ever useful?

Blame Ashley, happened under him, some of my mates are still on 10 year deals though because that bit can't be found either and it's left it a legal quagmire. I chucked mine after Rafa went, then buckled and bought one back , lost everything. Some peoples misfortune is others pure fucking jamminess. 480 quid for a season ticket in a good seat.
