  1. No idea, but I just downloaded the masters app again ( definitely the best app on my phone), so looking forward to finding out!
  2. As I expected. A dinosaur who was found out for not being good enough.
  3. A bit off topic , but £125.00 for a football shirt! Madness!
  4. “Let’s get Britains future back” might be the most clumsy soundbite I have ever read.
  5. The reentry footage was amazing. In couldn’t believe how long it was able to broadcast for under those conditions. 1 step closer !
  6. Interesting stuff. when was the shelf removed and how kind was it open for. Seems a lot of work to put in only to remove it again.
  7. Just caught up on this story. Wow, that is so bad! It makes Storybook Glen in Aberdeen look like Universal Studios!
  8. It’s not for football fans who watch games. it’s for people who follow football via social media clips.
  9. Any idea when the host city for Croatia away is likely to be announced? I will be in Cyprus around that time and thinking of flying over for it.
  10. It also reeks of entitlement and privilege that he believes he would go straight in at lance corporal and not have to start as a private. And the worst thing is, he would probably be right.
  11. Fight for a class of people , whose leader said, when faced with a genuine threat to the country (not this made up shite), “let the bodies pile high” . I’ll pass.
  12. No burns night for me but my wife was asked to do a “burns breakfast” assembly at her international school here in Tokyo which I was asked to come along to help out with. The teaching assistant is a Scot and a dab hand on the pipes which he has with him. He piped in the head teacher and senior staff. The kids sang auld lang syne ( which weirdly is played at closing time in Japanese supermarkets) followed by a wee introduction to burns and why he is celebrated. Bagpiping teacher then gave an excellent immortal memory, another read “John Anderson my Jo”, then a wee Japanese girl sang the most beautiful version of “my love is like a red red rose” I have ever heard. Then we had a mini ceilidh, managing to fit in a military two step, a gay Gordon’s and a massive orcadian strip the willow. ( all were carnage with 120 kids and only 3 Scots , but everyone had a great laugh) At the end the kids were piped out and given a snack of walkers shortbread. All in all a good little event.
  13. Yes that is what I mean, if he kept plugging away and not retired when he did, I am sure he would still be able to compete.
  14. Yes it looked like the generation of young chinese players such as yan bingtao etc we’re going to be the ones to upset the old order before they all got themselves banned. I wonder if ,seeing the likes of Williams, Higgins and o’ Sullivan still competing at the highest level, if Stephen Hendry reckons he retired too early? They all went through slumps in form before coming back strong.
