Re: Movie sequel’s that are so bad..
Not the second movie but third (which messed up the second).... Alien 3.... Newt dying at the very beginning completely undermined Aliens. Pissed James Cameron off to no end. Director apparently disowns the movie today. no, alien 3 is a misunderstood, bleak masterpiece https://film.avclub.com/alien...

Re: Your favourite Eric Clapton song?
Just to piss everyone off I'm going to say that both Layla and particularly Wonderful Tonight are possibly the most vomit-inducing songs of all time. Awful sickly, shite.
However, whoever said Tales of Brave Ulysses was bang on, that is the best.

I feel for Ford, yet again when the wheels come off he is dropped when he is not really the problem. When ball is quick we benefit from Ford-Farrell as we can go wide-wide really well, slow ball is another matter. As others have stated, off slow ball we dont have a centre who regularly cuts a decent...

Re: Your favourite song right now
Yeah, Beck’s range is unique even outside the ‘folk album-followed by dance album-followed by folk album’ sequence he favoured in the ‘90s. That song bungle posted is just pure 60s psych-rock and he pulls it off as well as he does faux-Prince funk. A remarkable career given he’s an average singer a...

Re: Kitchen advice UK
Our kitchen is Martin Moore, it really is exquisite but also eye-wateringly expensive. But it will last forever, I hope!
In a previous home we had a Benchmarx kitchen fitted and it was very good and excellent value for money. I would recommend them.

It’s a grey area, with no official sanction. If you dropped it forward onto your thigh, then some might interpret it as a knock on.

What did the ball do after he knocked it forward then? Because he certainly didn't catch it again... He 'kicked' it forward with his knee. Has the definition changed since you qualified?
