  1. The German national side are dropping Adidas as their kit provider in favour of Nike. German ministers have accused the German FA of being unpatriotic. Maybe Nike will be putting a 'playful' little swastika on the back of their collars?
  2. You know what's incredible about this thread? I posed the question 'Are Calais Migrants OUR Problem?', way back in January 2018 & absolutely nothing has changed - other than the UK spending, (wasted), billions of pounds.
  3. So now Starmer has wades into the 'argument'. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68632034 Nike have got exactly what they wanted, a vast amount of free publicity. It's the costs, especially of the 'authentic' shirts that get me. £125. Fair enough, it might have been 'playfully' designed & developed in the US but the majority will probably be sawn together in the backstreets of Dhaka?
  4. Unfunny, Manc comedian. He'll have to offer a comment on this. It's March & its along time until the next panto rehearsal to be out of the limelight.
  5. Look North interviewed The Independent's travel correspondent, Simon Calder tonight. He wished it well given the money promised but said don't expect much this year. He forecast that planes might be taking off by Easter 2025? He also said the worrying thing is the airport doesn't appear to have been missed by the public during the time its been mothballed, given the proximity of other airports. The only pluses he could see was that it could be used as an overspill for the likes of Manchester & Leeds / Bradford so that congestion could be eased at these airports. I said it a few posts back. I'd just have it as a designated freight airport 24 hours a day. That would put it ahead of the likes of East Midlands, which only takes freight mainly at night.
  6. Looks like Donny Airport might be back in business in the near future? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-68625426 Pity SCC won't be allowing any advertising on their billboards for it though.
  7. A doctor once told me the opposite in that, if you manage to stay fit & & healthy into your late 80's, early 90's you'll have been exposed to most things & the only thing that's going to get you is old age. You just pass away in your sleep.
  8. Simple question. What happens at the moment in Dronfield when 1,000 cars turn up? Do they all have a parking space?
  9. Husband given 'his wife's ashes' weeks before she was actually cremated. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-humber-68606271 I'm beginning to have my doubts about those cheap, simple cremations. I know one family who went down that route & their mother's body was picked up from Sheffield & apparently taken to the other side of Nottingham for cremation & it was a good month before her ashes were returned.
  10. I heard the final part of the interview. I wondered who the woman was? A SCC Councillor then. I was also listening to Foster afterwards, highlighting that the Councillor stated that baby formula wouldn't be advertised because SCC are interested in promoting the 'breast is best' natural way. To which Foster pointed out his wife had difficulty breastfeeding their second child & had to result to formula. He also pointed out that such a stance taken by SCC might have a detrimental mental health effect on women unable to breastfeed? Another curious juxtaposition was that SCC will refuse the likes of Barclay's Bank adverts. But again, as Foster pointed out, when you pay your SCC council tax, guess which bank's bank account it gets paid into on behalf of SCC? Yes, you're correct, Barclay's. A little bit of hypocracy with your tea, Councillors?
  11. If anyone would like to save money, cook your own dinner & for just a fiver, I'll come and round yours & talk down to you & belittle you. This Karen's Diner concept. Is it a two-way experience. Can I return the abuse to the waiting staff, chef & then say I'm not paying for over-priced garage?
  12. What was the point I missed?
  13. And yet people continue to pay a fortune to traffickers to get here.
