Really my argument is about correct counting from whichever starting point we choose as a convention. I’m with you on the fictitious event and always prefer the scientific BP rather than BC when dealing with the deep past. I’ve never recovered from the trauma of the film ‘One Million Years BC’...

Yep, that’s me! A decade is ten years in my book. A millennium is a thousand.

Lots of hype about the end of the ‘decade’ when it’s not.

Shotgun wedding?

Losing yourself in something creative or learning something new is a great distraction. Doesn’t matter what it is (new language, musical instrument, gardening, pottery etc) there are proven mental health benefits. Of course, if you’ve got someone you trust to talk things through that’s a...

When you're dead, you don't know you're dead. It's just painful for everyone else. Stupidity is like that. My take on this thread.

Remember him scoring against us in that great game 5 - 4 v Norwich. Typically ghosting in for a header.

When you say 'fix' ..........

As someone who didn't vote for Labour or Tory my neutral take on it as the labour politicians who I tend to admire: Lisa Nandy, Stephen Kinnock and unfortunately no longer in politics - David Milliband. Find Thornberry condescending and patronising, Rayner rude, shouty and aggressive...

I think we can all agree the new yellow and black striped away kit proposed for next season is a great idea.

Remember Clive James's programmes showing to us to our astonishment and ridicule the Japanese show based on humiliating the participants. It shows how far our telly has sunk now we are showing the same kind of crap as mainstream entertainment.

It certainly can affect low income families. By definition one of the couple is on less than the personal allowance eg part time, zero hours etc and the other could be on minimum or just above minimum wage. I sorted this out for my parents as my dad's state pension plus his meagre factory...

First time they had won an FA cup tie since 2010...

Like or loath her I find Nicola Sturgeon the most accomplished politician of all the leaders. Corbyn had a terrible interview tonight imo. He seemed rattled and his calmness entirely strained and overacted. I'm looking forward to the buffoon Johnson being grilled but Andrew Neil needs to pin him...

Agreed!
