Seen it? Had it finished by Wednesday! I assume you’ve learned some more creative swearing along the way?

Unbelievable. Truly feel sorry for him - he’ll be snapped up for sure.

Ditto later. But in Edinburgh.

So I heard so what’s the actual point of cricket then. I’m vindicated.

The massive pint in front of you must be a distraction to the inaction on field.

Looking forward to his Glasgow gig next Tuesday!

You talking about us?

Looks like a Womble has been using that as frisbee.

This is all very well but what lessons have been learned from previous VAR decisions. These need to highlighted so they can be scrutinised going forward. It should then be part of future training of referees.

I thought you said you were shite; away with that imposter syndrome. You’re ace - just keep being yersel.

How does it compare to the Colin Firth version, ā€œLockerbieā€? (…and don’t say ā€œNo Mogwaiā€!)

Sadly it still seems that nothing has shifted in that respect.

Listen to Emily Maitlis’s McTaggart Lecture from Edinburgh TV festival a few years ago and it gives you an insight into that and the reason she left the BBC.

Easy to decide on a freeze frame or slowing the footage down; but looking at the play leading to it - that’s never intentional.

So despite the dilution of shares, and the non-voting rights - I’m a little concerned that 20% of the shareholders still have the largest voting power. I’d like to know if that’s something that came up in the conversation with Bloom, as how else can he be able to protect his investment?

Great - if you do I’ll make sure @tomlikesrobots.bsky.social gives it a wee read - may also get his take on it too.

We’ll begin at the Whisky Society first to acclimatise.

Very little - you can hear a faint whirr whilst initially reading the disc. As you discovered it’s nicely weighted and a combination of aluminium and plastic (latter being buttons / switches).

Got mine from Peter Tyson / Advanced MP3 Players. Buy local ;) First road trip of it today. Bluetooth essential as original players never had that tech to employ.

Bereft of ideas or creativity. It’s a beauty show for the filthy lucre.

I’m hopeful MacInnes wants to keep him. Otherwise we’d have seen him saying his goodbyes tonight. Note: McKay shat the guard of honour.
comment in response to post
Absolutely. He’s done us a turn both at the start and end of the season. We can’t ignore that fact.
comment in response to post
Is it just me - or is that not a bit disrespectful to him? Obviously no official announcement yet - but I would hope at least he would go back to the B Team, or give him a new role with the main squad.

It’s from the same playbook and does nothing to further democracy; if it can be turned around that easy then what’s the point of voting on a party’s policies?
comment in response to post
I’m at a loss to understand all this. It’s quite sad in fact.
