just experienced it here in southern Ontario - second time (last in '99 in Turkey), forgot how weird it is, and how cold it gets, and that unless it's 100% you'd almost not notice, but when it does with the sunburst effects it's pretty phenomenal [Post edited 8 Apr 20:36]

easy decision - go up automatically, more time to relax and prep for next season, and avoids the nightmare scenario of possibly being beaten at Wembley by you-know-who. I'm done with the stress thanks. |

The 6-0 thrashing of Doncaster was one of the most enjoyable games of that season, but we were just so inconsistent under him |

*Must* catch up with this; likely not seen since school, so only the first three series maybe. Delighted to see it voted #1 (and Our Friends in the North at #12); inspired TV |

Leicester 100% - happy for them to run away with it and shoot Leeds and Soton down en route |

worrying indeed; I'm not entirely sure of what is the underlying angst for Kim - is this all about South Korea and he wants a united communist state (and sees the US disengaging from international intervention so now a good time to go for it), or is this actually about NK and the US which seems fairly nuts in terms of military imbalance? |

do it. I lugged my collection around for years gathering dust, then finally bought a new amp, turntable and speakers and it's awesome - nerd out cooking, or doing a jigsaw and wading through my collection - and I buy new stuff (while my cds now gather dust) |

Thread | EADT live match updates issues?
at 20:18 12 Dec 2023
Usually follow the games via Stuart Watson's tweeted comments as relayed via the EADT, but it's not loading for me today (yes lots of other means, but I'm superstitious about following it mainly on that platform).
anyone else having issues? |

Great days; John Row put on a bunch of the ranting poets there - Ginger John, Seething Wells, Atilla the Stockbroker too - usually supported by the very wonderful Panorama in Black. |

that's a great idea - back in the day when I lived in San Francisco the SF Giants baseball stadium had a free bike parking area that they oversaw to guarantee no thieving, thus encouraging more people to ride rather than drive to the game |

I had a section of 25,000 words that would swoop majestically between chapters two and seven as I struggled with the structure; ugh |

part time PhD is a tough gig - you need to poke your supervisor with a stick to set you regular deadlines, and work on that skeleton outline of the thesis asap: chapter headings, bullet points of what discussions/theories/data go in each one.
Having a clarity of vision is so important, otherwise you can meander and fly off down rabbit holes. I did my PhD part time the first two years, and then was lucky enough to get full funding - I worked all the time on it, but was death-by-tangent and had a very hands off supervisor so it took me *nine years* don't go there!
good luck! |
