  1. I think the food scene has definitely improved in recent years but I can see why people coming from abroad view British food in general as being quite bland. I get frustrated with it sometimes as Scotland has access to some of the world's best seafood, yet there's such a limited number of restaurants actually serving it. A huge amount of shellfish gets exported (which is why Brexit will be so devastating to that sector). My family are from the Outer Hebrides and that's crying out for a seafood restaurant / outlet. I know that tourists would go crazy for it, but nobody has had the initiative to actually do it.
  2. We have Tim Horton's here too. They've been surprisingly successful.
  3. I think that sums this fantasy season up for me Winning until the last when Adam Fox manages to get 3 assists to rob me. Didn't even lose to an active GM. Anyway, well done AV.
  4. It's a disgrace and sums up modern football. I've posted this elsewhere, but I think there's massive hypocrisy from some about this, particularly from some of the big hitters at UEFA and in the media, both of whom have enabled this. These commercial ideals were invented by UEFA themselves and they've facilitated the transfer of power to the rich for decades, so they've dug this hole themselves. The smaller leagues in Europe, which include some historically huge clubs, have been slowly forced out of premier European competition in favour of multiple teams from wealthier countries. It's ridiculous that the likes of England, Spain, Italy and Germany have been gifted 4 automatic places while the Champions of other countries are often required to start qualifying in JUNE. And that still isn't enough for them? It's disgusting.
  5. I think I've won something like 13 of my last 14 matchups and I still can't get past Jaku or Phil.
  6. The media coverage has been insufferable. Every scheduled TV show cancelled to show the same thing on every channel, 24 hours a day. Substitute it for Kim Jon Un and North Korea and it wouldn't look out of place. Sad when anyone dies but it's been pathetic.
  7. This whole album is a masterpiece imo, but this song never fails to improve my mood. Don't know what it is about it.
  8. What a goal. Furious that the refs have gifted them a point that could well decide playoff spots though. Absolutely pathetic tonight.
  9. After a slow start my team has been a pleasant surprise. Trochek my pick of the season.
  10. Another 8.0 close to NZ. More tsunami warnings in place
  11. Vancouver sports fans can be toxic. Only need to look at HF even when things are going well.
