Just had my post delivered 5 mins ago and there is a letter from Western Power Distribution saying that our power supply could be off between 10am and 4pm ... TODAY! Partly the Post Office's fault too I guess because the letter was sent on the 14th, so I should have had it Saturday, or Monday...

Hi, Can anyone help? My mum and dad are both 87 and their TV is very important to them. A new channel came out, Talking Pictures TV, that just shows old films. I know they will love it. They can't receive it though. Apparently you can only get it with a Freeview HD recorder and they just...

Can anyone please answer this question for me re the Irish Open last week and the Scottish on now!! No matter what I type in on the intenet I can't find the answer. Confusing the hell out of me. Ian Poulterer just played the 9th hole and it completed his round. Last week I was watching...

What links. ... Groucho Marx Queen Aerosmith & Peter Gabriel With the city of Coventry?

Anyone else notice loads of these empty cartridges in parks? Keep seeing them when I walk the dog and as I was out really early this morning (4.15 am) Coundon Park's litter hadn't been picked up. These cartridges were everywhere and besides the emoty cartridges there were also two empty boxes...

Blank canvas. You start your own new party. What would be your core beliefs and aims and policies? I keep hearing of Theresa May talking about us being strong and stable, but for me a fairer and more equal society would be much, much higher up on the agenda. As sure a bear shitting in the...

Is it 'pouches', or 'pouches', or 'pouches?' Seriously though, anyone know? Been watching YouTube vids of people talking about kangaroos, but can't find anyone mentioning 'pouches.' My guess is partches. We are off to London shortly and my daughter has to say 'pouches' in an Australian...

Anyone know why he was driving down Villa Road, Radford yesterday? Yep, I know it sounds far-fetchingly surreal and ridiculous, but we were behind them yesterday driving back from town and it had the official insignia emblazoned upon the car. Weird. Was hoping they had come to arrest the...

Anyone else watching it? I think it is fantastic. Really very impressive. Saw the film from a few years back, so was apprehensive, but I needn't have been. Great premise, beautifully played out.

Just thinking about today, in which I think we have rather been spoiled (well I have anyway). Lions game this morning, then England v Australia in the one cricket international, then the French Open women's tennis final. Now there's Scotland v England in the World Cup qualifier and later...

Is it a hirable vehicle? Or is it just a bus with Wasps advertising emblazoned upon it? I thought it as Wasps' own bus. My daughter has just gone to Barcelona with her school and the bus at the school to take them to the airport is the Wasps bus. :(

New article just published by the CT this morning about our fine city. 'Coventry is home to Coventry City Football Club, nicknamed the Light Blues. They currently play in League Two, Three or Four of the English Football League pyramid. The Light Blues most famous day came in 1977 when they...

All those times we played RCC in games when Burge is clearly the much better keeper. Grrr!!!!

Obviously someone has to be the first one through the gate, just wonder if you have ever been that first ever fan in the ground for any particular match? Have been in early before. Been in at 2 for a 3pm kick off, but would say there has always been a couple of hundred here.

Could be the start of the great escape. We win this and we will only be 12 points behind. Game on!!

A little bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Michael Appleton says his Oxford side are jaded. He doesn't think they can make the play-offs. Hopefully still jaded on Sunday 2nd April. Be nice if they have a touch of food poisoning too mind and several key injuries. We need all the help we...

Remaining fixtures .... CITY v Southend MK v CITY CITY v Port Vale CITY v Bristol R Sheff U v CITY CITY v Peterborough Rochdale v CITY CITY v Charlton Rochdale v CITY CITY v Walsall Scunthorpe v CITY 14 points adrift at the moment. 30 points to play for. I would say about another 5...

Aww, forget it. :(

One turns to the other and then gazes aimlessly into the sea and says 'I see the City lost again.' 'Eh?' says the second. 'How on earth do you make that out?' The first man stares at him and says 'Well it's Saturday isn't it?'

Shaking my head myself at this one. I have spent a couple of weeks now trawling supermarket shelves looking for aluminium cooking foil that is suitable for microwaves. Yeah, I know, daft right!! Been really scratching my head as to why I can't get it when I have quite clearly got it before. At...
