caroline lucas calls for all-female emergency cabinet
at 09:07 12 Aug 2019

her alternative ideas are an emergency cabinet in which no one has a beard or an emergency cabinet in which no one has an allotment.

operation midland
at 15:33 22 Jul 2019

the man who made up all the westminster child abuse allegations has now been convicted. it was at one time the internet rumour of choice for some posters on here - some even claimed to know secret stuff about it. what has come out today is that the convicted man (also himself now a convicted paedophile) was, when operation midland was on-going, a nspcc volunteer who went into schools on their behalf. bit embarrassing that.

lightning
at 18:42 11 Jun 2019

can lightning hit a football pitch which is surrounded by very tall stands and pylons (with presumably lightning conductors)? don't those structures attract any lightening? they've just suspended the chile sweden game because of lightning - but wouldn't the pitch be a pretty safe place to be?

at 13:00 3 Jun 2019

come on, equality and all that - and it's the only footy we'll get for the next month or so. we should generate some interest and enthusiasm on here - allocate teams as we did for the men's world cup. if 24 people reply to this thread I'll do a random draw and allocate teams. or not. sod it, i'm looking forward to it.

*********

THE DRAW

there was more than 24 of us in the end (I think I've included everyone who replied to the thread) so I started a second round of a draw and there's some doubling up. equally therefore late comers can still be included.

…. drum roll... and the draw is:

Bluebadger Chile
Coastal Blue Scotland
Clapham Junction Jamaica

carbon
at 12:46 4 Mar 2019

this is fascinating* - uk co2 emissions at lowest level since 1888. the pattern of energy consumption is unrecognisable since 130 years ago, plus population growth, so it seems incredible that co2 emissions are at a similar level. per capita emissions are at the level of 1858. can these figures be right?

* fascinating but still disastrous for global warming since we need to reach carbon net zero.
