Leicester points deduction....
at 15:50 26 Jul 2025

...not going to happen, is it?

2 weeks until the start of the season, surely they would have done it by now.

I really don't understand if they get away with it again, clearly someone somewhere has a soft spot for them.

6 children murdered by a malfunctioning missile.

Nice work Krishnan

CH4 news just now, interviewing the Israeli government spokesperson, making him sweat.

Won't make a difference of course, but Krishnan certainly made him squirm.

MoTd2
at 23:23 13 Apr 2025

OK,
I know it's been mentioned on here a few times about the lack of respect MoTD seem to be showing us.

Uptil now it's not really bothered me, but I've just sat and watched the "discussion" about our game today...not one single mention of Ipswich by any of the presenters...all Chelsea, Chelsea, Chelsea.

I know, shouldn't let it bother me, but that's just wrong, disrespectful and unprofessional in my opinion. Must write to the BBC.....

Watching Argentina v Brazil
at 00:36 26 Mar 2025

Brazil have been awful for the first 20 odd minutes, Argentina 2-0 up.

Then our friend Cunha, playing upfront for Brazil nicks the ball off Romero and puts it past Martínez, game on.

Argentina still the better side though.

Anyone got any ideas for getting an item left in an Uber?
at 21:00 14 Mar 2025

It's only a vape, but an expensive one.

Tried sending message through the Uber app, but driver/Uber support not responding.

Doesn't seem to be any way of contacting a driver directly.

Tax the rich – do it now. Start with me
at 15:57 23 Jan 2025

Not me, obviously, but Dale Vince - owner of Forest Green FC - didn't know he was born in Gt Yarmouth!

He's suggesting that a 2% tax on anyone with assets of £10m or more would raise £24b a year.

If that's correct, just do it, start re-distributing some of the wealth.

Theatre ticket booking advice pleeeease
at 17:09 8 Jan 2025

OK luvvies, I'm not much of a theatre-goer myself, but it's the girlfriend birthday next month and I want to book tickets for the Tina Turner musical in London.

I've checked out a couple of websites and the prices all seem similar (and by that I mean eye-wateringly expensive), but anyone got any suggestions for good sites that maybe even do discounted tickets?

I'm also booking tickets for Abba Voyage (even more eye-wateringly expensive), but looks like going direct to their own ticket-booking site is the best bet, unless anyone knows different?

PS, this is all top-secret, so no telling anyone, eh!

Christmas songs royalties
at 15:33 3 Dec 2024

https://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertainment/music/how-much-money-do-stars-make-from-

Easy money, eh? Write a hit Christmas song, and 50 years later, you're still living off the royalties when it's played to death during December.

It's always seemed an odd system to me, the fact that these payments are made at all - just write the song, sell the records and earn the money from that, or other promotions/advertising when it's used. Don't see why a royalties system is needed.

As a small business, I am forced to pay for a PRS license every year for the songs/ads/jingles that guests 'might' hear when watching TV at my place, so yes, that's probably what irks me.

Borrowing a relatives season ticket for the game tomorrow

Daft question probably, but the club don't need to be told, do they?

I know they've tightened up on the re-sale of tickets, but STs can just be lent/borrowed as long as it's still the same type, ie adult for adult?

Going to London for the weekend
at 15:53 24 Oct 2024

Twickenham, as it happens - which is not too far from Brentford, apparently.

Girlfriend asked a few weeks ago for a good weekend to visit her sister down that way, hadn't really looked at the fixtures, so suggested this weekend, hehe.

Now, to somehow get a ticket for Saturday and disappear for a few hours!


Similar co-incidences like this have happened to me before, as it happens......

many, many, many years ago, working for T&C in Clacton, and they sent me to Bristol to do some work in the branches there...the same week Ipswich were playing Bristol Rovers (I think!) in some cup game, so managed to get to that.

Then not quite so far back, but still many, many years ago, spent the weekend in Sheffield visiting friends, and incredibly, we were playing United, so popped along to Bramell Lane. 1-1 I think it was.

Pure luck on each occassions.....honest!
