How do you record this great channel using a VCR? My TV has Freeview. I can watch it. Not record it. Yes, I know. Old Baz still stuck in 1995, but I feel like I'm missing good shit here and every "Freeview Recorder" I've tried doesn't work. Thanks.

No idea about that but if your dial up is fast enough they do have a free streaming service called TPTV Encore which has a lot of their films and TV shows

Cobrizo Lounge in Newbury. Better than Butlins

I haven’t enjoyed a Marvel film for ages but GOTG 3 was good fun. No multiverse / time travel / variant bollocks, just a fun adventure film that had a few laughs, hits you in the feels occasionally and zipped along nicely. 

St Anger is pretty average but “The Unknown Feeling” song from that album was one of my Metallica favourites 

I’ve not listened to the new album yet, looking forward to giving it a spin 

Suns out

Power Rangers The Movie 1995

I saw something Power Rangers related on Netflix and my childhood came flooding back to me, so had to give this a spin again for the first time in over 20 years. I’m saying this with my heart full of nostalgia and wearing my thick rose tinted glasses but this was pretty good fun! A solid 3 Ivan Oozes out of 5. 

As a kid we had the VHS of this, Matilda and Drop Dead Fred on heavy rotation. My Dad wasn’t a fan of the other two but didn’t mind Power Rangers. Now I’m his age when we were watching it back then I can see the appeal

What show / promotion is that Janela Onita moment from? I think it’s DDT but I can’t find anything about it on Cagematch.

My wife was out walking the dog and said she felt a very strong vibration. She was thrilled and welcomes any future natural disasters

Yeah I heard about that too, I'd imagine being able to say Onita battered you with an exploding bat would be worth it for some*.

 

 

*I'm some.

1:21:35 ish if you want to see it.

Maybe it's the Englishness in me, but I just don't understand how you can be so brazen that you can play music (and such shit music) knowing full well everyone around you can hear it. I live in a semi detached in a cul de sac so I'd say that about 30 houses can hear this.

You must know it annoys others. Its a kind of selfishness that I almost admire as it's so blatant.

Unless you live in a detached house on land, if you want to listen to loud music, put your fucking headphones on.

 

My neighbour does this all the time to the point I pray for rain every weekend just to have a bit of peace. What’s worse is they put Alexa in their garden and play Heart radio full blast. They are so dull they don’t even have playlists or listen to albums or anything. So I feel your pain today, it sucks.

Sweet get a nod from me anytime someone mentions Slade too 

I love that D-Mal is watching a CONCACAF Womens Under 20 Championship qualifying match! There was me thinking watching Liga MX was a bit out there 

When you get back from picking a takeaway up, dish everything out, the family are all sat in the lounge with their food, the film / tv show you’ve been looking forward to all week starts, you go to take your first bite and… one of your kids sits on the remote, changes channel, causing a complete panic of 1) where’s the remote gone and 2) getting things back how they were before you tuck in to your kebab wrap

Listen to the Socially Distant Sports pod?

No the Phelps one was on Instagram so I did a bit of digging and came across Wogan #outofcontext

TIL Sir Terry Wogan and Olympian Michael Phelps have both held the world record for longest televised golf putt ⛳️ 

Posting this for the commentary alone, which was shouted every time someone scored at school 

Would you beLIEVE IT!

Love that this thread started with Yeboah, perfect 👌🏻

There’s been three pictures since Butlinsgate and I think my 6/7 out of ten rating was a touch high 

My wife is notorious for not opening her eyes when having a photo taken. Now my dog has started doing it too

Or just do what Butlins do and have a local breathe heavy on it for a few minutes 

The truth you seek lies just ahead

But WARNING…. The answer will disappoint you more than the ending of Wrestlemania Night 2

Answer the Butlin's question mate

Whoops sorry, no I’m not that mental to go to Butlins just for the breakfast. We had a Goldilocks and the three bears show to go to at 10, it’s a wild ride here

And @FelatioLips firstly I want to say how much I loved your post! And secondly I want to say unfortunately you’re more a Johnny English then Hercule Poirot and have not cracked the case!

Some mysteries are best left unsolved 

Variety is the spice of life!

I missed this thread first time round during my year off the ‘keff. I had cancer of the ol balls back in 2013. You want to look out for a lump on your teste that feels a bit like a pea.

If you feel anything like that get to the doctor asap. My doctor couldn’t feel it first time round so I had to push for a scan as I knew something wasn’t right.

Had the scan on a Tuesday and was in the operating theatre on Thursday having the ball removed. Then one big flush of carboplatin chemotherapy which was absolutely brutal. I was ill for days, and just having a blanket on my skin was painful.

Five years of checks and then given the all clear in 2018. Had my 30th birthday, got engaged, all clear from cancer and England World Cup semi final all in the same week!

If anyone wants to talk about any of this or has any questions or anything please feel free to message me! 
 

EDIT the one upside is riding a bike is a bit easier now 🙂
