    A nice warm-up for Rear Window for this weekend.

    Last Film You Watched

    Rope - 1948 Not top notch Hitchcock but well worth a watch. Interesting camera movement, long shots and masked cuts all while skirting around the Hay's Code with two gay coded characters.

    Christmas Shopping

    Gotta think of a few stocking fillers but as her main present I've bought Mrs CT a couple of tickets to watch Lewis Capaldi in Sefton Park. It'll double up as a bonus birthday present to myself if she takes someone else instead of me.

    Naughty stuff on work time.

    Work experience at John Menzies - was walking out of there everyday with a stack of jazz mags and other bits in my coat. The two weeks I worked there was either side of all the new issues coming out so I got two months worth of the entire top shelf. God knows how I never got pulled - went in to...

    F1 2025 (and other motorsports)

    Didn't know the full regs on checks. Apparently the entire top 10 were checked after Las Vegas.

    F1 2025 (and other motorsports)

    Is plate wear selectively enforced? They're checked and if it's worn past the limit then it's a DQ. If it was selectively enforced then I'm sure McLaren might have had something to say. It was applied at Bahrain and China this year - neither race being towards the end of the season. In fact...

    What random rule change?

    The post Match pro-Dyche vs. Anti-Dyche discussion/arena/aggro thread

    This basically. His brief was ensuring it was a PL Everton that played the opening fixture at Bramley Moore. Wheels came off though and it was left to Moyes who got the required results. Personally I'd be aiming more barbs at Kevin Thelwell and the atrocious recruitment team of the period.

    Alien Romulus Cailee Spaeny is good and David Jonsson is tremendous. One of the characters in it was incredibly irritating and cartoonishly arseholey. 'Offspring' looked a bit crap. The Ian Holm thing was horrific though. Still, quite enjoyable I thought and if another Alien film comes out...

    Spotify Wrapped age

    Got a two month trial membership as I wanted a quick and easy way to put a load of offline music on my phone for the flights when I went on holiday. Was on a massive Marvin Gaye binge that week so it's gave me 77 though I'm very much younger than that. Has been a handy reminder to remember to...

    I think that will be strongly discouraged. His job will be to improve performance of the second driver for the Constructors and shenanigans to assist Verstappens title challenge / defence.

    Putting flags on lampposts

    I know next to nothing about PIP or UC but it seems like something where the sheer amount of bureacracy, red tape, assessments, doctors appointments etc etc must cost an absolute fortune before a penny hits a claimants bank account. Wouldn't Universal Basic Income just make more sense?

    minor things that make you fume

    The person delivering it doesn't set the estimated time and probably has little idea what you've been told.

    Black friday

    Vehicle tax is due in a couple of days. I'm holding out that gov.uk do a Black Friday discount but it's not looking likely.

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    There were of course many technically excellent players but there was also a plethora of players who had genuinely poor first touches and made a career of being able to cover ground, hit or run for channel balls and boot people. Does a side with the technical ability of Wimbledon manage a 14...

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    The last time there were direct foreign limits in the top flight was pre-1995. Compare the development and technical quality of English players then to now. It's night and day. The same goes for the overall technical quality of player.

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    The quality of the league would absolutely implode and the argument that the richer successful English clubs don't develop players because of foreign players has been completely disproven.

    Help for a new fan?

    I spent a good few seasons as a season ticket holder a few years back. This is awful advice.

    Today’s Football 25/26 Season

    'found his cojones' and 'had more than 3 players of actual PL quality' are probably interchangeable here.
