    Gone is the hope of a party atmosphere if this takeover happens, it'll just be a mild feeling of relief and thank fcuk for that.

    Looks like the team is screwed until January at a minimum

    I think it will be more like the final scene of Captain Phillips, when he realises that the nightmare really is over.

    Taking the thread slightly off topic but anyone who doubts Tom hanks acting ability just needs to watch that scene. Incredible.

    Let’s hope the saga finally gets wrapped up this week..
    He got freed in 2009 I think mate
    Another Monday morning and the usual non-news. Another week of prolonged agony popping onto CL periodically in the vain hope that there will some good news from those ITK. Why do I bother?

    No one's ITK. There are some who might hear something a few minutes before you perhaps.

    If I hear anything it goes here asap. (Well once I've cooked dinner maybe).
    I heard a lot happened at the end of last week, so you'd imagine they'd be taking stock of what's what today.

    Buy the damn club you Aussies.
    Can I ask if that is good news, bad news or don’t know news?

    It's 'I haven't got a clue' news. And I'm waiting for my contact to call me, rather than me hassling him.
    just hassle him james he wont mind
    Oh ok.
    Submit your questions, I'll pass them on ;-)
    Would ya?

    Do Gorillas peel their bananas before they eat them or just eat them with the skin on?
    They peel them from the bottom after pinching the end to make a split.

    Next.
    Correct. Well, nearly. You could argue that what many people see as being the top of the banana is actually the bottom.

    image
    ...and by peeling them from what we call the bottom, they do not get those strands. Top tip for banana lovers.

    If we fire Roland into the air at 71mph, one mph for each of his years, how long would it take him to hit the ground once he has reached apex, factoring in that gravity is a constant of 9.81m/s/s?

    The three meals you can eat each day are either breakfast, lunch and dinner, in that order; or breakfast, lunch and supper, in that order.

    Dinner is never served in the middle of the day.

    Yes is a drink not a meal. Although you can have sandwiches, biscuits, cake or bread and jam with tea.

    Fact.

    When I was a kid back in the '60s, the meal in the middle of the day was dinner and the meal at the end of the day was tea. This was propagated at school were you had '[free] school dinner', not '[free] school lunch'. This is still the case now, for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamie's_School_Dinners
    Or you took a packed lunch. Never a packed dinner.

    And Suggs sings “The lunch-time bell will ring again” in baggy trousers.
    Indeed. You took a packed lunch to have instead of school dinner.

  • The current World record is 74.6 mph and 193 feet 8.8 inches.

    Therefore you could catch almost any animal when fired from a cannon. Hey, I'm not saying that cheetah's and gazelles would be easy.
