Sat at a bar in Austin, TX awaiting the arrival of Tim Howard, in his new role as US Ambassador.

So with Boris throwing in the towel in the running for leader of the Conservative Party, Andy VDM for us and his love of anything 'toxic' and now Johnny Manziel in the US (former Heisman winner, fired from Cleveland Browns) - who else is someone that has thrown it all away? To be honest, a...

Ok, so here's the deal and I'm not really sure how to react - thought I'd throw it open to the GOT folks as no doubt there will be some interesting responses: So - 5months ago I moved house. I was in the process of getting quotes and arranging for folks to come by my house to figure out how...

So far this year (yes I know we're only 19-days in), I've had a flare up of my herniated discs in L4 and L5 in my back, I went to the Emergency Room and they gave me oral steroids and some pain killers. Well now, I've gone and gotten myself a cataract in my left eye - can't see a bloody thing...

Well, I got robbed last night in my hotel room, they took my iPhone, my watch, some cash and my debit card. Tracked them down to a specific street in Atlanta via Find my iPhone - Atlanta Police didn't want to know and threatened to arrest me for trespassing if I knocked on any doors - even if I...

I bought some new shoes the other day - Monday - they are absolutely killing my hooves... Any suggestions, recommendations on softening up the leather?? They're a lovely pair of shoes but they're bloody agony at the minute. I've heard of damp newspaper, but am pretty skeptical and haven't...

So Saturday got me thinking, favourite last minute winners... For me it has to be AJ's winner in the snow storm at Goodison versus Arsenal. I know Jag's equalizer versus that shower, but that wasn't a winner...

So I'm going for a top 3 of: Paul Scholes Frank Lampard Stevie G I've been discussing with my redshoite pal all day today, that's my order...would be interesting to get your thoughts...

Morning all, Just wondered if anyone on the forum is going through or has gone through this. After 5yrs of being over here in Texas, my (UK based) ex-wife has decided to throw me into court for Child Support (in Texas) when they (ex-wife and son #1) live in the UK. Since I've been here for...

Anyone ever done it?? I'm thinking about it, as it's a great bucket list item to tick off BUT.... I'm useless at football, and I do mean USELESS... Even if it's for a good cause (i.e. raising money for charity), I'd feel I was letting us down. I wouldn't be able to beat a man, probably...

My nephew passed his 11+ today! Delighted for the little lad! He's going to the same school I went to - Bishop Wordsworth Grammar School, Salisbury. I feel v proud of him today! This is a young lad who lost his dad at 6yrs old, just gone through a divorce (this year) and has triumphed for...

Drummer for the Charlatans! One of my favourite bands! RIP fella!

Passing on the very sad news that my good friend passed away on holiday with his friends on Monday, July 1st 2013. He was involved in a tragic accident after drinking too much on a cruise ship. Chris fell to his death from the 8th floor deck onto the 4th floor deck below. Chris was an...

So I've just picked up my first decent size aquarium at 36Gl, I love 'em! I really do! I don't know what it is about them (aside from the fact they remind me of doctors surgeries) but they're relaxing, enjoyable and very low maintenance. I now have a 10Gl one downstairs and my 36Gl is...

Did you have a good one or a bad one and why? Mine was terrible - little lad had food poisoning on Friday and vomited all over my bed! The didn't make the toilet in time...:o So I spent a lot of time throughout Friday night and into Saturday morning cleaning! Then Sunday my brother in law...

What the buggery [Poor language removed] is going on? I've been to Cleveland many times as I have a client there. This is just shocking. For those not familiar with the story, these girls have been held captive for 10yrs! They finally escaped with the help of a neighbour!

So I'm flying to the UK tomorrow, I am a creature of habit and have my own little 'routines' while at the airport. Typically: Check in Security Duty Free Pappadeaux's for 16oz Ribeye, baked potato and a wedge salad, washed down with a couple of beers and a Malbec to accompany the steak...

Right lads, I'm booking my flight back to the UK today and the day before I fly back, we're playing Spurs at WHL. I'm wondering (as I'll be in Maidenhead that evening) if I could get a ticket for the game and watch that on the Saturday in London before heading over to Maidenhead. Any...

11 in 25 for Oldham... Paul Dickov their manager is raving about him. A lucky escape for us or did we miss the boat on him and not give him enough playing time - consistently?

So I'm getting myself a Pick Up Truck (being an adopted Texan - it's the only way to go). I'm getting the Tundra. My decision is Double Cab v Crew Max. I've been approved etc... this morning and am going back to the dealership at 3:30pm to pick one out. Any suggestions lids?? I like the...
