    The Awakening

    Greetings all, I wanted to announce that I've gone and got a book published! It's called The Awakening, and it's currently available for pre-order, directly from the publisher. At the moment, it's not directly available to locations outside of the USA (unless you want to pay through the nose...

    Meerkat Musings

    Howdy. So I have a blog, www.meerkatmusings.co.uk, a YouTube channel, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLRO6F-5nMYw79fSMAN1usA, and a podcast, https://meerkatmusings.co.uk/meerkat-podcasts/. Check them out, or don't, it's up to you.

    Tattoo Vote

    Greetings all. I'm deliberating on what tattoo to have next. I'm gonna go with a DuckTales theme, and I've whittled it down to two choices. Any votes will be combined with the Twitter vote, which ends in four days!

    Best Football Chant

    I know there are many to choose from, but I am leading with Oldham's quite entertaining 'Meat pie, sausage roll, come on Oldham, give us a goal!"

    Copa America 2021 (Argentina Champions)

    I couldn't see a thread, so I thought I'd quickly start one, seeing as this tournament starts in a few minutes! It begins with Brazil vs Venezuela. A very different situation stadium-wise. So bleak and empty.

    Publishing a Book

    So, on the 14th of August, I'll become a published author! I have a book going live on Kindle on that date, with a paperback in the works as well. It's sci-fi, and it's an original universe.

    F1 Technical Stuff - Downforce

    Greetings one and all, So as I'm going slightly mad without F1, I'm re-writing some old Formula 1 stuff on my website. I've just created a new page, entirely about downforce, that I A: would like to share and B: would value feedback on. I will of course, give credit where credit is due for...

    Rest in Peace Sir Stirling Moss

    F1 2018 Championship - Round 2: Bahrain

    Welcome to round 2 of the 2018 F1 season. Welcome to a very different venue, in virtually every aspect, to the previous round in Melbourne, Australia. Bahrain will provide drivers and teams with completely different challenges. For starters, the very track itself has different characteristics...

    F1 2017 Round 18 - Mexico

    It's a short hop from Texas to Mexico City, for the 18th round of the F1 World Championship, where the title could be wrapped up, quite comfortably, by Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton. He need only finish fifth, even if chief rival Sebastian Vettel wins, to claim his fourth championship. Sounds easy...

    Random Question Time

    Greetings all. I'm doing a little project (a way of boosting flow to my site and also to increase my interaction with followers), by the way of a question and answer session. If anyone is interested, ask me stuff here and I'll post the answer on my site (as well as here). I may even make...

    F1 2017 Round 10 - Britain (16th July)

    I hope no one minds, but I haven't seen a thread yet for the British GP, so I thought I'd contribute one... Against the backdrop of Silverstone's owners saying 'no' to extending the British Grand Prix past 2019, comes the halfway point of the 2017 season. The short version of the contract...

    Alien/UFO Dyson Sphere?

    By now a lot of people will have heard of the dimming star, that dims by as much as 20% of its output at regular intervals. The intrigue factor is that planetary transits normally dim a star's light by 1%. Well, it seems there is a second star exhibiting the same behaviour...

    Astronomy Boyajian's Star is acting up again

    http://www.space.com/36925-alien-megastructure-star-dimming-again.html To quote: Pretty weird. The planet breaking up idea is intriguing, but I'm not sure there's enough mass - even for a Jupiter-sized world - to block a star's light like that.

    F1 Management Sim

    This one is called iGP and it's actually pretty good. Does anyone else here play it (mobile and tablet game BTW), and would anyone be interested in setting up a BigFooty league? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    Formula 1 - Round 4, Russia (30th April)

    I hope no one minds, but I've taken the liberty of starting this thread as I couldn't see one already up. From Russia with love. Or alternatively, from Russia with twenty fast F1 cars, tearing around a circuit built into the former winter Olympics venue at Sochi. This will be the fourth time...

    The Lion King

    It's probably evident that I'm a Lion King fan (the avatar and user name should give that away). Anyway, I saw the musical for the second time yesterday and wanted to share my thoughts on the experience, as well as seeing if anyone here has had the chance to see it. http://wp.me/p4V4lR-Ag Sent...

    2015 Canadian Grand Prix - FIA World Championship Round 7

    Montreal, Canada is the next stop on the F1 calendar, with this beautiful circuit, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. Nestled amongst some gorgeous scenery, this track has been a staple of the F1 calendar since 1978, and enjoys a good reputation among fans and drivers alike. It’s one of few tracks...

    Movie Sci-fi and Fantasy match-ups

    Ok guys, here's the deal. I'm starting up a string of 'versus' debates on my website. I've done one already (Iron Man vs Batman), but I'm after inspiration. Give me match-ups that I like and I will happily do a comparison to determine who is more likely to win a fight. Sensible suggestions...

    Fox Hunting

    I read an article in The Daily Mail today which rather annoyed me. I would link to the article but it doesn;t appear to be available online just yet. It concerns foxes, their classification by some as vermin, and despite listing some means of deterring them from your property, implies we should...

    Apples vs... Androids

    http://wp.me/p4V4lR-kq Having reviewed my phone (the venerable Samsung Galaxy S4), I thought I would weigh in with my thoughts on the Apple vs Android debate. It can be a thorny one at times (brand loyalty can be a big thing to some people), but nevertheless I wanted to have my say. The...

    How many times will Pastor crash?

    Let's take predictions now - how many times will Pastor Maldonaldo crash this year? Factoring in practice and qualifying sessions as well as races, I am going with only 7 crashes.

    Best Race of 2014?

    As the dust settles on an exciting 2014 season (and as my cat decides to sit on lap at the most inconvient time), I put to you all, the question of what is your favourite race of 2014? For me, it's Hungary. From Hamilton's push to third, to Ricciardo's great opportunism, to Vettel's remarkable...

    F1 Recall - Senna and Prost

    I guess I'm pairing these two giants together in one thread because, quite simply, their careers are so entwined that it's very hard to discuss one without discussing the other. I hope you enjoy! As before, if you guys like, and with your permission, I can add your comments to my site. Senna...
