Took a late father's day trip to the Lowry today to watch Dear England. Still running for a couple of weeks and I recommend getting to see it if you can. It gets a little preachy towards the end but it's a funny over view of Southgate's time in charge of England particularly focused around the...

Interesting conversation came up over dinner today. Suppose I buy a small island off the coast of Scotland and declare independence. Then someone visits my island from the UK and I murder them using a hedgehog gutter brush. It's my island and I haven't made a law making murder illegal. Can I...

I was packing my work bag this morning and found a whole packet of custard creams in a side pocket. What a great unexpected treat! What's been your favourite surprise?

Every time in my life when I've sang this song I've done "Championeeees Championeeees Ole Ole Ole" However at the Leeds game my senile old dad sang "Championeeees Championeeees Are We Are We Are We" Which is the correct lyrics? Seems like an appropriate moment to clarify

Appears Andy is off to Sri Lanka to manage their National Team. Good luck!

missed the game tonight and on full on media blackout so haven't seen the result. When will a download of the match be available so I can watch as though live? Ta

anyone using Apple music? What do you think of it? Taken me all morning to work out where all my songs went but now I'm getting used to it it seems to work ok

I'm after a used car. Don't have a big budget so can't get a Lambo like the son wants. I've got 3 kids so will need something pretty spacious but not necessarily a MPV. Any recommendations of what to get or where to look? Thanks in advance

Hey there Had a damaged door seal on an old Electrolux washing machine. Ordered a new one online but now struggling to know how to fit it. All the YouTube videos seem to show me having to take the front face off the washer but my machine doesn't look like it'll do that ;) Any ideas how to get...

Just seen a few episodes of this. With the amount of junk on tv how can this not make it to British tv? The Batman episode was hilarious and Chevy Chase is great but creepy

Hey there This is the most boring question that will get asked tonight but it has been playing on my mind all day. If I buy something from China and it gets shipped to my house does the Royal Mail deliver that for free or do they get paid by the Chinese postal service?

Hey there I have a first generation Ipod touch that has broken - I suspect it is something related to power because it isn't charging or staying on when I plug it in (it was working fine whilst it retained a battery charge) Has anyone used one of those online post your ipod to us services or...

On ITV now. I like the first 1 very much. The other 2 descended into cliche ridden, not as clever as it thinks, nonsense

My laptop power supply is faulty so my laptop tends to shut down whenever it feels like it. Recently I got a blue screen of death on Vista - the laptop couldn't access the recovery partition nor could it boot into safe mode. I assumed that because the power supply was faulty I'd killed my hard...

Did any frequent the Ritz on a Monday night back in the 90's? They used to play a song in a ska stlyee that had the word Shiver or Shake or something similar. Does anyone know this song? You will help me sleep if you can tell me

I can't be bothered reading any more. Turning pages is just tedious. Can anyone recommend any good audio books? I'm open to any suggestions from different genres etc Thanks

Hey ho. I'm fairly ignorant in the niceties of our political system so this is not a thread intended to incite or flame but I keep hearing that a tory goverment is bad for working families. As I belong to a working family (mrsB works in the public sector too) can someone explain in simple terms...

We've got a cheap table purchased from Asda or Argos or somewhere. It is just some kind of board with a fake wood vinyl veneer thing over the top. Unfortunately my 2 year old in a fit of dismay and disgust at the result yesterday decided to rip half the veneer off. Understandable in the...

My son just got accepted to Victoria Park primary in stretford but just found out the uniform is green and gold. Should I home school him?
