Bit scary.

Police are chasing a nonce who touched up two 6 year old girls at Legoland in Windsor last Thursday.

We were there on Thursday, at the playground where it happened shortly before it happened. Joked about not knowing where the kids (8 and 6) were as they were happy to be playing and they were doing our head in so we were happy for a break from them.

We all went on the rides for maybe an hour. Passed by on the way back and the playground was all closed down.

Can never be too careful I guess. Had to chat with my 8 year old about it tonight, which is something I'd prefer not to do at this stage.

Shit I was there in January mate!. The legoland theme tune stayed with me for about 1 week after we had been there with it playing all day long!

Could not see anything via search function, and not sure exactly where it should go, but did anyone hear about former Villa striker Dalian Atkinson dying after being tasered by police? Anyone who was following the Premier League in the early 90s will remember him at Villa. Think he scored goal of the season in maybe the first Prem season? Seems he had some serious mental health issues. Very sad.

bok_party Any new music while ive been away?

Yeah watched one ep. I thought it was too graphic/messed up and it was kinda scary.

Bird at work told me who the Slasher is cos I knew I wasn't gonna watch the rest lol.

It had no likable characters (in the ep I watched), stupid writing and horrible decision making. Didn't rate it.

It's not as good as scream but I am enjoying it. The characters aren't likeable I agree but I did struggle through eps 1 & 2 but then pushed on and now i'm starting to really enjoy it.

Bon Iver dropped two new tracks. Interesting direction.

Been listening to new Biffy Clyro and Wild Beasts but that's been it on my end. Had my plate full last month!

Has anyone watched Bloodline? I'm almost finished season 2. Brilliant TV series.

 

[Spanish Sahara]

Anyone seen Stranger Things?

Just started that last night

Yep, I'm almost at the end. Very good.

chef do you have any idea about houseboat holidays? We are thinking of doing one for the Melb cup weekend up your way as it looks like Lake Eildon isn't going to be suitable for houseboating.

Seen both. Totally different shows but both are excellent.

Bloodline is such a slow burn but it's great how in the beginning you are rooting for some characters and against others yet by the end, it's totally turned on it's head and you are now totally reversed in your thinking.

Mendelsohn is terrific!

Yeah, houseboat holidays are pretty cool. I've done it before but not in Echuca(in Berri SA).

If you are planning on it up this way I'd get organised pretty quick as the Echuca cups on the same days as the Melbourne and the town is packed that weekend.

Didn't realise that, thanks for the heads up. Much on for kids at the Echuca cup?

TBH I've never been to the cup, we are closed that day and Echuca is the last place I'd want to be after getting smashed at work all weekend.

Apparently it's pretty family friendly.

Damn. Where do I go for cookies if you aren't open?

Yeah, really good. I struggle to watch more than one ep at a time though - it's very heavy.

Yeah, I'm enjoying it. Need to give it a few more spins though.

It's terrible.

ive listened to those two new tracks a few times and I'm really intuiged. I wouldn't say they are terrible at all. It's just a very unique direction and im excited to hear more. It's just so different to his previous albums that I don't think people are accepting of it yet.

Geeze, think I'm going to hit 50k posts today.

Wonder what my best has been...

Nah. They've all been great.

The best one was Benteke > Lukaku I reckon. Close second-tenth the poker-gambling debate

SM is never wrong. Clear best poster on BF.

 

[Gosha]

I'm the complete opposite haha. I can't get enough of it. I'll try and cram in three - four episodes every night.

Mendelsohn is terrific!

Mate, he's bloody fantastic. I only found out recently he was in Animal Kingdom and he gave me the chills in that movie. He plays that dark seedy character again in Bloodline and he absolutely nails it. I couldn't imagine him playing any other role.
