What the hell has your opinion on DAC got to do with this thread?

I hear you, GWO2. For the avoidance of doubt I have walked a similar path to you over the last decade or so, albeit as a son rather than a spouse. Still a hard road to walk and many lessons were learned. I can share what I've learned over time, but as you say it's a sensitive thing and timing is st...

Just checking in on people, especially GW02 - hope things are as well as can be for you and your wife. Not going to work has definitely softened my moods - it'd be nice to plan some trips or meet with friends in a pub, or even watch some rugby, but apart from that these last few months have been fi...

When you think that Terry Dean and Tommy Steel were top of the charts, it speaks volumes. The only challenge for me would have been Lonny Donegan

But, he's come home to slow down and retire. Good Waikato man.

My father was 100 years old last September, and being an ex service man, he ALWAYS has a short back and sides haircut.With the hairdressers all closed down, and he knew I always cut my own hair and his hair, after three months was really getting him down, so much so he let me cut it today. He was ac...

I am slightly deaf in one ear, when I told them I had hearing problems, they took me off the list.This was 20/30 years ago and my hearing in that one ear has got considerably worse and I use a hearing aid in that ear now.

Always booked my annual holidays in September back then. We went camping in those days, so after such a hot summer we were all looking forward to a couple of weeks under canvas. Arrived at the campsite and put up the tent, settled down for a lovely holiday. The weather broke the heatwave ended and i...

If you are including local makers, Joe`s of Mumbles has quite a good reputation.

No where near as bad as the preceding posts, but, my own embarrassing event happened on holiday in Hungary. We were staying at Lake Balaton and went on a day trip to Vienna and I had an attack of the runs. We visited a palace and I headed for the public toilets, it was very busy there and there were...

This is the Robinson sidestep against France - live and at full speed it did seem like he did it in mid-air, though obviously he didn't: https://youtu.be/2afK153n27Y?t=180 The one I remember most was when he sidestepped the Italian fullback at full pace without appearing to slow down at all: https:...

Glad to see you back. Some peoples attitude on here says a lot about the way things are looked at today. It`s really sad to see. Anyway, all the best Globus.

The equivalent of a 7.8 moment magnitude earthquake, essentially think the recent Kaikoura earthquake in NZ (upwards of 10 metres of slip / displacement in some places.) Mt St Helen's had an energy release of 56 billion equivalent kilograms of explosives, basically as much as the largest ever nucle...

hang on, cost was obviously a factor but for the US the war didn't start until the Japanese attacked pearl harbour. At that time the p-38, possibly the fastest and most expensive contemporary fighter, had already been in service with the US air force for some time. Combat performance and cost are n...

I only hope we do not end up like other money clubs by buying in too many players. Will it mean a new ground base (The Gnoll if the money is there to upgrade it) Hope we are not going to be the cheque book Charlies of the Welsh regions. I want us to be successful, but done using youngsters from our ...

Boris and his government has done a marvelous job at confusing everyone. England or at least a lot of the English, seem to think that the whole of the UK has lifted restrictions. Where as they are the only ones who have. Guest houses and camp sites in and around Swansea receiving requests for bookin...

Richard Osman @richardosman It couldn't really be simpler. You can meet up with girls who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do boys like they're girls, who do girls like they're boys, always should be someone you really love.

A very proud moment for my father last night.The street he lives in was having a Social distancing street party with music, bingo party food etc. He went outside his house to see how it was going, and was given a standing ovation by all his neighbours.

As a youngster I remember being scared after watching Quatermass for quite a while. I do not watch many Horror films, but two that frightened the crap out of me were the very last scene in Friday 13th where they had got away and were floating on the river in a canoe, when the prat came up out of the...

You guys are bells - Barker was just not that funny, and his open all hours / Clarence / amazing Evans stuff was shite.

Personally, I feel cheque-book-Charlies trying to buy success like Leinster, Dragons and Saracens ought to be ashamed of themselves...it goes against the fundamental ethos of the game. The O's certainly never had a team of big names and imports in their heyday. Tommy Bowe, Jerry Collins, Marty Hola...
