scrubbedexpat099 is an unknown quantity at this point

Re: WTF in America

More than Man U

Sounds unlikely

Did have a smirk about the Argentina result, the England game sounded crap.

England, at least won their game and are atop their group. While we can still qualify via the playoffs, NI were dismantled by Germany yesterday.

But it's Germany, they win football matches for fun.

Sometime's it's a close-run thing. Southend v Millwall in the 70's and 80's definitely had a touch of the guerre about it.

And the less said about the Glasgow Old Firm, probably the better.

Likewise, Linfield v Glentoran (or Cliftonville) but unless Cainess is lurking in here, that won't mean much to most people.

You mean the mighty Reds of Solitude in the New Lodge area of Belfast.

Well, not so sure about the 'mighty', but otherwise yes

Re: WTF in America

The WTF isn't the enriched uranium nuclear bomb that remains lost in NC, ... the real WTF comes at the segment starting at 4:15 in this video.

Why else do you think smoke detectors have a 10 year life. So that they can be collected and turned into a nuclear reactor.

As has become customary, certain details are missing from the report, because such information is now consider to be "not relevant".

On checking the address, it appears that the "alley" in the report is an access road because the garages for houses on that side of the street are accessed from the rear. The houses are packed in fairly densely for suburban houses, and look to be above average size and quality - not just a tract of cookie-cutter homes. Beyond the alley are a few trees and a narrow strip of wasteland that provides a buffer to a railway line. ..... But if the three year old had wandered she could have reached a road across the railway within a few minutes.
