COLD DARK ROOM

[Lyn W]

Shameful booing of the opposition's national anthem by fans from both sides

That's why I don't like football, you don't get that in rugby - although booing during conversion attempts has crept in. It's just not cricket!

We had lovely sunshine. Not exactly toasty, but no wind, so it was very pleasant.

Tonight is the England v Scotland football match - the players of both teams are wearing poppy armbands in defiance of FIFA. Hopefully the fans will behave. This match has a history of strong feelings, shall we say.

FIFA are now denying they banned the poppies in the first place.

i thought of you when it appeared

Did you hear about the man who was arrested for drinking battery fluid today, John?

The police have put him in a cell and they're going to charge him in the morning!

At one international we watched at Twickenham they brought out the U21 kickers at half time to practice taking kicks in front of a huge crowd and specifically requested the crowd to boo and make as much noise as possible! It was quite good fun

I suppose they expect it these days.

Good evening all - it's Friday evening - my favourite part of the week!
Glad to see you are all having good Fridays.
Lola had been up and about and eaten al the food I left our for him today but back in bed by the time I got home.
Got him up for a nice warm soak, then he ate some more and took himself off to a cool corner.
I moved him into the warm, then he ate some more - and went back to the cool corner!
I put him back in his hide as he would get too cold if I left him all night, so that's where he is tucked up now.
Hoping to get a vets appointment for Monday but it will mean me 'being ill' because of the time.

any insight via tort TV? it does sound like he wants to hibernate from my limited knowledge. would more light help? fido is up when i switch on room light and tv, an hour before his mvb and strob... he even still goes and looks out his window into the abyss! planning his escape i bet

He's got a big window (insulated with bubble wrap) and a basking light as well as his mvb and the ceiling light left on, so its pretty bright in there and the room temp is almost 90'F
Maybe he's decided to become a Russian, Greek or a Hermann.

I must go and hunt in my cupboards and freezer for something to eat.
A must for the weekend is to replace my microwave, I'm fed up of slaving over a hot stove and my George F Grill!
See you later.

Good evening Lyn, though I've probably missed you by now due to our viewing of the huge uncut "Watchmen".
Brilliant!
Odd behaviour, but at least he's still got a good appetite, always a good sign.
Love to him as always.
(and to you, of course).

I suppose they expect it these days.

I remember everyone booing at the screen in Saturday morning pics.
In olden days they would boo and throw vegetables in the theatre.
Lots of lovely booing still in panto.
Booing is a part of British culture.

3-0 to England. They weren't that much better than Scotland though

But only the scoreline will be remembered in the end.
End of the line for Strachan, I feel.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Hmmmmmmm.
I seem to have missed everyone.
Time for some grub then.
