Always wound me up on The Big Bang Theory that they were supposed genius scientists but were oblivious to the fact they were shite at making tea.

Strangely enough I hadn’t looked at her twitter ever until recently and I agreed in principle to her stance on the number of kids people have . We stopped at two because we couldn’t afford more and due to earnings didn’t qualify for any of the handouts. It does do my nut in when I see people with multiple kids raking in the state handouts.

Like the Daily Mail, there is a lot of basis in what she says BUT she says it in such a horrible way that you want to disagree with her....

That might make him a bit of an anti hero though.

Ban something and look what happens. Ask Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

That's true. He is always playing victim so would weaponize a ban.

Kevin Sinfield

7 Marathons in 7 days, all well under 4 hours, and all for his mate Rob Burrow.

The guy's a legend off the pitch as well as on it.

Saw that in advance and after the runs but hadn't seen his times. Impressive stuff.
