Went to the York panto yesterday, told the Mrs that I liked the made up placename Wetwang. She looked at me all confused:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wetwang
Now its even funnier, much to her eye rolling disgust.
I take it, then, that you've never experienced the delights of one of the best fish and chip shops/restaurants in the world, Harpers of Wetwang. They're also in a few other places in the area, York for example. Always a queue, day or night. |

Why do you lot bother reading it? It must be comparable to watching a special needs kid skateboarding for the first time. Look the other way..
Because it's funny as fuck. |

Nope! The Mrs used to live just off one of the road that now has a Harpers on too ( Hull Road, York). Think it was a Chinese , then a pizza place when she lived there. |

Apparently so far this season Swindon loan players have made 76 appearances whereas ours have made only 4.
In addition they have signed a further loanee.
What you would call a settled side!
They're not doing anything wrong
It's their cheating and playacting I take issue with
Has anyone checked those numbers? |

Seeing as they think Byrne, Luongo et al are loans, I didn't even bear it a second thought. |

Turnbull, Stephens, Louis all loans so yeah its probably right. Lets all bow to the superior club who are overspending and losing millions a year. Their business model must be the best way.

Turnbell and Stephens fair enough
...but...Louis Thompson is such a technicality. The fact we don't own him but he's still here is in fact fantastic business

5 of the starting 11 were loans if we count Louis as one  I guess 76 may be right but certainly takes a sad fucker counting up another teams loan appearances |

National Trust membership.
Had a family membership for years, and it is fantastic value.
Had a great afternoon down at Stourhead today.

On a similar score, the family and I went to Westonbirt Arboretum today, lovely wander around there, interesting too. Bit cold for the kids though.

This TED Talk is properly mental and worth a watch if you have a few minutes. http://www.ted.com/talks/michael_rubinstein_see_invisible_motion_hear_silent_sounds_cool_creepy_we_can_t_decideSee invisible motion, hear silent sounds
Meet the “motion microscope,” a video-processing tool that plays up tiny changes in motion and color impossible to see with the naked eye. Video researcher Michael Rubinstein plays us clip after jaw-dropping clip showing how this tech can track an individual’s pulse and heartbeat simply from a piece of footage. Watch him recreate a conversation by amplifying the movements from sound waves bouncing off a bag of chips. The wow-inspiring and sinister applications of this tech you have to see to believe. |

Lovely place, they've got a Gruffalo trail on at the moment for the kids and they do great Christmas walks awsell. The inlaws don't live too far away so we're there quite often |

We live fairly close to it now so think I might get a year's season ticket, should be worth it with the kids, seeing the changes with the seasons.
