Hotel microwave on steroids or something.
Set my popcorn for the usual time next minute I’m slamming on the stop and dumping it all under the tap to stop the smoke:eek: hoping to god the alarm doesn’t go off and wake up half the hotel:oops:

Been out of the country so not sure whether it’s massive news in Australia or not, but this cave rescue in Thailand has been everywhere here in Bali and the updates I’m hearing are scary as ****. Hope all involved survive their attempts to escape as any other outcome would be absolutely horrible. Thoughts are with them all and their families.

(Mods, wasn’t sure where to put this so do what you want with it.)
 
when you come on here and whinge about gameplans and hanners injuries etc then read things like this https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/p...r/news-story/a2dbc82d160386398ec9476ac0fcc4b2


you think who really gives a ****, just enjoy the footy
Yep. At the same time though, for a lot of people footy is a good chance to take their mind off things and pour their emotional energy into the team rather than let it out in other ways. I know in my work, I deal with some pretty awful situations where you would kill to step in and help a kid out of their situation, but reality is there is absolutely nothing I can do about it. Yelling at the tv or calling the umpire a maggot takes my mind off that for a bit.

Agree 100 percent

Maybe I mean more when we all get shitty with each other

Fair enough. Not a fan of personal attacks or bitchiness either. As I say to my colleagues, I'm here for the kids and to teach them, not interested in peoples personal gripes.

I could never really dislike you Kingy... We're both LeBron fans now afterall. :p

Seriously though, agree. There are things in life that are much more important than a football game or winning an argument in an online forum. But I guess the footy (& forums like BF) brings like-minded people together. It brings a sense of community & a place to escape the "real life" for a bit.
 
Anyone else watching the tour?
Yep. MTS did a pretty good job of the TTT. Incredible the amount of booing Froome is coping. Don't be surprised if someone pushes him off the bike at some stage. Looks like BMC may claw some seconds on Sky.

Still up. Watching every stage mate.

Great final few seconds there. Quickstep made it a cracking finish.
Some really strong TTT teams this year. That's the closest finish for the top 4-5 teams that I can remember for a while. Still think it's advantage Sky at the moment unfortunately, but a few of the GC contenders that are down on time further than Porte and Yates will likely light things up. Cobbles will be fascinating too.
 
its just bloody crazy that someone who cycles around the same places as me is off at the tour, go Richie
Yeah. From around my area Steele Von Hoff was fairly prominent and you could often (I was going to say pass him) be passed by him on a Saturday morning ride. Friendly bloke too.
