As a vibe, the Falklands. The first news story where I remember thinking "oh I'd better pay attention to this" was the Berlin Wall

All-white kitchen very much on brand.

The H&S documentation for pubs is already a near enough full-time job for my co-director, adding a whole other load of risk assessments and safety checks....just wasn't worth the hassle.

The hours more than anything else. If you want to be serving breakfast from seven then you need to be in the kitchem well before if you're going to do it properly. My public liability insurance is already sizeable, that would have gone up a lot. Whole bunch of other staffing/compliance issues.

I considered doing B&B at our pub before we moved in. One of those ideas that when you look at the logistics for more than five minutes is very much a hard pass.

Oh absolutely, it's idiotic.

Unconscionable.

It's probably naive of me, but I'm excited by the dynamism of those three, given that we lack passing (which we're just going to have to live with for the time being), their ball carrying is vital. Gray's impressed me recently, composed on the ball.

Got pretty heavy, let me tell you, if my son didn't have such a great Uber rating I'd have had to have been there another five minutes.

I had to go to Goole once. Beyond that I've got nothing tbh.

No, hang about, I was once mildly inconvenienced in Stevenage.

Ah. Not enough giant dog tags, clearly.

I know a lot of Reds. The misery is palpable.

The Evertonians of my acquaintance, otoh...

Worst/best timed post of all time

Love it

I don't know, what's green and has wheels?

What's yellow and dangerous?

Shark-infested custard

How do you eat Welsh cheese?

Caerphilly

Another vote for Battlestar Galactica and The Wire.

Holy shit. That is definitely a take.
