I know the 3-footer is the one that'd have me sweating bullets. Also followed Lou long enough to know it will also be the better % option despite scaring amateurs everywhere.

Uphill all day. At least I'd leave it in gimme range haha

Definitely uphill for me. Really struggle putting with the cup below my feet.

 

[chef]

I'd be confident on either, but if i had to choose I'd go uphill.

Good example of why smacking kids should be allowed.
This pasty pissant made Piers look sensible, humiliates himself in the process and does the cause he champions a disservice.

Pissant is a great description.

What a fackwit. Needs a good smack across the chops. He is very smug and does no favours endearing himself to viewers.

A couple of tossers trying to shout over each other is not the best forum for debate.

I liked it when the chef said we have vegans and vegetarians on the menu. I reckon that's a step too far but if these people are committed to reducing the population then it should be considered.

The pasty faced pissant should have been allowed to speak. Apparently restaurants that serve meat are "symbols of a broken system".

This is always good for a laugh

Piers started the interview by calling him pasty and saying he hates vegans. It wasn’t a serious interview from the get go, although yes the kid did himself no favours and looked like a prat who’s out of his depth.

I think groups like these need to get themselves a spokesperson who is comfortable doing interviews, otherwise they do their cause no good at all.

They should also go into any situation with Morgan with eyes open about what it will actually be.

I'd almost wonder if the kid was an actor paid by Morgan because surely no organisation taking themselves seriously bothers with Morgan in that situation.

As much as I don't like Andrew Tate, that interview was the same.

He gets controversial guests on, just to yell over the top of them and not actually conduct a worthwhile interview.

Which I think is a contrast to climate activists, they too can at times protest in a manner that disrupts public order.
But their arguments in public forums like this is far more likely to see them use science, facts, and data to support their argument.

It bloody well should be!

I don't subscribe to the times but from the tweet they have spent £36m on properties from company profits on turnover of at least £2B. That equates to 1.8% of turnover. One would expect a margin of at least 20% on these contracts. One would imagine that they had existing wealth too.

Does the article say that they have done something particularly dodgy, like not fulfil those PPE contracts, or that an accountant has advised on tax. minimisation?

Thanks. How do you get around paywalls?

Basically through that website. Go to any websites article that has a paywall, copy the URL and paste in on archive.ph in the box where it says “My url is alive and I want to archive its content.” archive.ph Hit “save” and wait for it to load. Some articles will open up straight away (noticed more on overseas publications) and others will take a few minutes.

Herald Sun articles will produce lots of pop ups. I just copy and paste the article on my computer to get around it.

So I have been watching Seinfeld lately, which I haven’t done in 10-15 years, closer to 15 years. A long time ago. All of these years I thought the standup Jerry would do at the beginning, middle and end of episodes was actually standup he had done in comedy clubs years before Seinfeld aired. That’s how I saw it, when I was younger, and watching the show in shitty quality, the standup and the TV show didn’t seem like it was done at the same time.

It was.

Heh well TIL. I also thought they were clips from his separate Stand up shows.

The real story is that all those jokes were written for Jerry specifically to tell to a room of people and whatever would get the biggest laughs was used to base an episode around.

Did like one comment where he said the downhill putt. That way when he missed he'd have the 6 footer uphill.

This is so good.

All out for 15 in the BBL. Lowest ever T20 score. Crazy.
