Football rules question
at 11:23 14 Apr 2025

If you went in for a dangerous sliding tackle and missed the ball and the opposition player... but took out your own player, would that be given as a foul? And would it be a free kick to the opposition? Drop ball? Could you even get booked/sent off for fouling your own player and has this ever happened?

Apparently he doesn't want to be in prison anymore because it's making him ill. And he can't watch GB News.

Bless his convict socks.

Grew into that ...but Ben Johnson looks a liability to me
at 20:46 2 Apr 2025

Makes too many errors and one is going to be costly.

Overall we've been under a fair bit of pressure but grew into the game and have had a couple of decent chances. Cajuste should've scored but unfortunate to slip as he hit it. Everyone playing decent bar Johnson IMO.

So chuffed for Broady, but great run by Enciso.

Off to Syderstone in North Norfolk for a few days' break

Any tips for things to see/do?
We've been to Holkham Hall and Sheringham National Park last time we stayed in Norfolk (as recommended by people on here), which were both enjoyable.

Two questions: Anyone on here use a sleep tracker? And anyone given up sugar?
at 09:43 24 Mar 2025

I don't want to pay the earth for one, but I'd like one that's useful.

I'm guessing wearables are best? The ones that are just app based aren't going to work because surely they'd pick up whoever you're sleeping next to as well?!

Failing that, if anyone can tell me why I'm tired all the time...
Hardly ever drink, eat well, even gave up caffeine a month and a half ago, but that hasn't made a difference. Thinking about trying to give up sugar next...

My dad passed away on Wednesday
at 08:24 14 Mar 2025

Spent much of yesterday doing the admin stuff, something I've never done before. There's a surprising amount you have to do, and you don't really have a lot of time before you need to crack on with it.

Something made us laugh - on ringing the Tissue Donation place to see if there's anything they could take (even skin, bone and heart valves are possible apparently)... we found with dad nothing was possible, it was all knackered or too old. Which we thought was quite fitting. In life he always wore things until they were falling apart, beyond repair, getting the absolute full use out of them... and he's done the same with his body!

Another amusing/surprising thing, as part of the funeral prep my brother suggested giving away a few bottles of wine to anyone who wants it at the wake, as dad was a keen winemaker. We thought there might be 5 or 6 knocking about. On searching the spare room, the floor of the garage, and then a big locked cupboard in the garage... we discovered over 100 bottles! All ready to drink, various years and fruits. Funny thing is, neither mum or dad were big wine drinkers. He obviously just loved the process of making it.

We're going to make labels (working title: Ken Dropped A Fruity One, "ABV: Your Guess Is As Good As Ours") and have more than enough to give everyone a bottle. He was a very generous man, so what a great and fitting tribute that will be!

Saw the new Bob Dylan biopic the other day, A Complete Unknown.
at 11:16 15 Feb 2025

Really good. Lady Dollers is a big Dylan fan, myself less so (so the fact that not everything was 100% accurate didn't bother me) but I was surprised at how many songs I knew. Fantastic job by Timothée Chalamet, not only brilliantly acted but he had to learn how to play/sing like Dylan too. Incredible job. I wouldn't be surprised if he picked up the Oscar for that.

Switching mobile providers - any good companies/deals you'd recommend ATM?
at 08:44 9 Feb 2025

Looking for a sim only deal.
I've just finished my contract on EE, which worked fine everywhere other than in Dollers Towers (seems to be a dead zone for them). Lady Dollers is on O2 which works fine everywhere but their customer service is cr@p and they've messed me about on a deal (the offer ended in the time it took my sim to arrive, cheeky beggars!)
Any more for any more?

Manifesting an ITFC win - Part 2
at 16:30 31 Jan 2025

This worked last time. Well, the last (and only) time I suggested this, we won (Wolves away). Some can mock if they like. I hope some, like last time, join in. It costs nothing!

To repeat from last time;

Anyone tried repeating affirmations to get things to come into their life?
I've done it years ago and some things did come true, although of course this could just be because I was setting goals and working towards them. Or coincidence.

The trick is to say the affirmation as if it's already happened, and with gratitude. So;

I'm so happy and grateful that Ipswich won against Southampton on the 1st February 2025. Fantastic result!

Please repeat this out loud as many times as you can before the match. When you first wake up/go to sleep. Whilst doing the dishes. Whilst on the loo. Writing it down works. Writing it in this thread couldn't hurt!

Do it for ITFC and let's manifest this win. You don't even have to believe it, you just have to say it, preferably out loud. Ask and the universe shall deliver (again)!
