  1. I watched that video earlier thinking they were expecting the bridge to fall, which is why they were filming it. Somehow didn’t spot the massive boat in shot. But I’ve just seen a longer video where you can see the boat hitting it and it falling straight away. Absolutely terrifying!
  2. I add a book to my library wish list. Get an email to say it’s ready. Walk to the library to pick book up. Bring the book home and put it on my bedside table. Get an email three weeks later to say the book is due back. Walk the book back to the library. Not a single page read
  3. Late to the party but I’ve finally got round to getting some pictures of trucks! Here’s my Grandad with one of his tippers My Dads first truck parked in his driveway! And here’s the old man in his last truck He loved the mixer, even better when Hanson’s IT system was shite and they constantly overpaid all the drivers.
  4. That is insane!!! @JNLister are there any good YouTube channels for some old AJW?
  5. I think I’ve posted this one before but this moment still keeps me up at night. When my old Finance Director was leaving the office to go to his fathers funeral my mind was elsewhere and I said “Have fun!” I honestly thought I was going to have to leave, I felt absolutely rotten.
  6. He had an accent at the start which I presumed was a bit of cover. When the guns come out he reverts back to Cockney It really was a great time and I hope we get multiple sequels, spin off series and a documentary crew following Adam Clay opening a market stall selling honey On the other hand I couldn’t stand Bottoms and the best part of it was when it ended. Heard nothing but good things about it so clearly I’m in the minority, but man I thought it was shite
  7. Yeah thank you so much for this Pat. I really wanted to get into Lucha but didn’t think there was any other interest on the board, glad I’m wrong! I’ll start checking it out. I have watched a little bit of CMLL recently (they are drawing big crowds at Arena Mexico) but I haven’t seen any AAA at all If you can recommend five or so matches from the last few years I’d welcome it very much! I went to Mexico in 2011 and the hotel put Triplemania on a TV in the bar for me. I can’t remember much of it apart from La Parka had a class match and RVD was in the main event. I had a La Parka mask with me but was too shy to wear it. Here I am with it from last year at a local Indy! It cost way too much money but I love it (I’m on the left)
  8. I've been slowly working through the trophies on Far Cry 6 recently. I'm now on to the Vaas Insanity dlc which is pretty good fun Last night I had finished one of the quests and was stood on a cliff edge listening to some dialogue. I was just passing time and ran to the edge of the cliff, pretending I was going to run off it but jumped back at the last minute. Couldn't believe it when Vaas (who i'm controlling) sarcastically said "Good one" as I jumped back! I love that the developers put such a unique thing in the game
  9. I realllllllllly loved this film, can’t recommend it enough. One of the best acting performances I’ve ever seen

    2024

    Well I'm already behind, but I enjoy writing a few notes about the wrestling I watch so I will keep going February, March and April are very busy for me so I won't be able to watch as much as I would like! Also, no deathmatch corner this month unfortunately, I just haven't had a chance to see any and GCW has been a bit tame. Anyway, here is my February round up - My top 10 of February 2024 My top 10 of 2024 so far Bump of the month Looking ahead to March I hope you all enjoyed some wrestling in Feb. I would be interested to know if you saw the Ospreay vs Oku match from Rev Pro as i've heard that was absolutely fantastic
  11. Yeah there has to be more to the story. I can tell you from experience that the IT guys really don’t give two shits about you or what you get up to and actually want to avoid any human interaction at all costs

    Work

    Yeah, companies thrive on this. As @chokeout says send a list of your tasks to whoever you report to and ask them to prioritise the list. Even better if you can put a timescale on the tasks (over egg it obviously!) Don’t forget that’s it’s extremely unlikely anyone above you will care about this and remember it in the future. I’ve been in companies where people have worked their balls off in hope of recognition / promotion etc and have been made redundant a year later
  13. I got told off by the Doctor the other week for using Sudafed. He said you get instant relief, but it prolongs healing (that can cause other issues), which pretty much is what you said
  14. Knock lemsip on the head, alternate paracetamol and ibuprofen every two hours and suck on a fisherman’s friend Every now and then get a big bowl of hot water, put in a couple of drops of albas oil, then put your head over it with a towel covering you up. The vapours will break up the congestion and it will all drip down your face into the bowl. Then a hot shower to clear any leftovers
  15. I’m going to pick this up I think. Does anyone know - can you download other users created wrestlers? I remember you could ten years ago so I would just download the old ECW guys that others have created. Just wondering if that’s still a thing in these 2K games

    2024

    Crikey, what a month It will of course be remembered for the news from outside the ring. Two industry changing events within a week - the abhorrent Vince McMahon allegations and subsequent resignation from WWE, and signing of the massive Netflix deal. We also had a TNA rebirth, and one of NJPW's biggest stars Kazuchika Okada confirming he was off to pastures new. There was a lot of stuff to talk about inside the ring too, and that's what I will focus on here. 2023 I was a bit lost personally and just watched the odd AEW show and WWE PLE. By the end of the year I was wanting more and promised myself I'd start 2024 with Wrestle Kingdom to see if that reignited my passion, and it did (despite it not being an amazing show)! Since then I have gobbled up as much wrestling as possible and here are my thoughts (spoiler tagged so you don't have a big wall of text) My top 10 of January 2024 Deathmatch Corner Looking ahead to February So what did you enjoy in January? What did I miss? What were your favourite matches?
