We looked at the cinema listings in old local papers for dates in the past and picked our Saturday night viewing based on that. She's All That American high school My Fair Lady. Uses the age old Neighbours Plain Jane Superbrain trick of putting someone conventionally attractive in glasses to convince us that they aren't gorgeous. Everyone and their cat is in this if you look at the credits. Absolute standard late 90s teen romcom. Galaxy Quest I had seen this before and I still love it. Aliens mistake Star-Trek-alike actors for actual galactic saviours. There's a documentary (Never Surrender: A Galaxy Quest Documentary) that came out around the 20th anniversary celebrating it which I would also recommend if you have any fondness for the film.

It's a huge fucking pain. My wife and I book tickets to go together, so now we'll have to co-ordinate booking so that we're sitting together. I'm in the process of writing a complaint letter and if there's no reconsideration it gets cancelled. They're not having £40 a month off us (+ the millions pound Mrs JB spends on sweets) for this level of experience. Edit: I say letter, obviously it was actually an electronic submission. Edit 2: HAHAHAHA.

The little tack on for Optimus in robot heaven was nice. Still disgusted that they gave Wheeljack an off-screen jobber death in the film #justiceforwheeljack.

I don't follow any of the British leagues, apart from having a vague awareness of them. Just like the Milano Seamen.

Yes, and kind of. Quite a bit came out from the ELF which normally was along the lines of imports getting a few grand a month (during the season only) and maybe room and board. From my understanding everyone else was on a sliding scale to the point that a majority of the squads would have been essentially amateurs who were getting their basic kit and travel expenses covered.

Yes different London teams in each league. One already plays and one is set to start in the 2027 season. Neither are the London Monarchs

Did anyone ever follow the ELF (European League of Football) and subsequent fallout? They got permission to use a load of the old NFL Europe names so you had the Frankfurt Galaxy and Rhein Fire etc playing once more for a few years. I never got a new Amsterdam Admirals or *London Monarchs before it all fell apart The ELF splintered into the European Football Alliance, which should have a London team in 2027 (the London Guard playing at Brisbane Road), and the American Football League Europe, which already has the London Warriors in it. *Lineage wise AFLE has the Berlin Thunder who replaced the London Monarchs in NFLE. Great decision to host the EFA Championship Game at the Tivoli Stadium, home of the Raiders Tirol, as that thing looks gorgeous with the mountains in the background.

Des off of Old Friend Club on Instagram where they chat to old people in nursing homes about their lives. He always talked about his late wife so fondly.

I was given a voucher for a shop which I put towards a nose hair trimmer.
