Perhaps we don't play the high ball into the box when all our forwards are under 6ft..

Dogged willpower and the faint hope that it will get better eventually.
An of course, completely ignoring the dosage recommendations on the Calpol bottle.
Fill them up to the brim with paracetamol!

For collectors of footballing incongruities it's Wrexham vs Cardiff in the EFL Cup tonight.

The bit that everyone blindly ignores is that advertising is not a single entity but thousands of different advertisers making thousands of decisions as to what advert best suits their needs.

He was very good last night.
Just did all the basics very well, in the right place when needed and almost got on the scoresheet.
Made it look easy

Phew. Couple of scares at the end there, but Swansea offered very little for most of the game. Good 3pts and response to Saturday's loss

Slightly dodgy red there for Swansea.
Oh well

So this bread knife cleaning/ not cleaning thing, does this mean that people use another knife to cut the sandwich they've made?
Is the bread knife only meant to cut bread when it's part of a loaf?
What other kitchen utensils am I using incorrectly?

Well that wasn't the HT score we expected.
Lots of effort for nothing and they hit us with two sucker punches.

Because they're too scared of the big bad bogeyman who also scared the Tories into calling the referendum.
An unelected, noisy bogeyman who's got what he wanted and keeps it that way with the mere threat of more bogeyman behaviour.
Sort of stuff I use to get my kids to behave

... the same thing at the same time (17m for Only Fools on Xmas day wasn't because it was great, it's because there was nothing else!).
I'd say that slow burn based on word of mouth is the better measure not instant hit

.. they can watch, what they've got now is the breadth of choice and on-demand nature to watch when it suits them.
The "shared" TV experience is still happening at a household level but not on a national level.
Add in with a greater breadth of content, viewers are no longer required to watch...

If you build your answer around does it matter for traditional TV viewing, then it is an emphatic yes.
If it is built around the question does it reflect what people are watching at 9pm on a week night, then no.
There's still the same number of people sitting on the sofa wanting to find something...

Love this sort of issue.
Good idea: stay open to allow sensible people to be out later and more income taken.
Bad idea: British people can't be trusted and will just drink themselves stupid and ruin things.

Three days into playing #ghostofyotei on PS5
Amazing scope and beautiful but having played GoT to death it feels like an expansion pack not a new game.
Was hoping for more new features but the core hasn't changed and am not being pulled in by the storyline.
Will play on because

Yes it's only October and there's a lot of football to be played, but this is superb.

Cat. Waiting to be let in, again

Cat. Waiting to be let in, again

He's had to clamber up a fence jump over a small ledge and then jump up again to sit outside our balcony doors to be let in.
The electric catflap downstairs that automatically opens for him is obviously far too much effort.

Having spent the last few days searching for and finding a hotel to stay in, I must now endure weeks of unending adverts as my penance for doing so.

Got a feeling Trump may have lost the NY vote with the trouble he's caused today.
