I ventured into the For Sale section yesterday on a rare visit. Lo and behold my item is now on page 5 in just over 24 hours. The place is full of people with names I've never heard of who don't appear in the Lounge. What's more,how do you sell anything there if your post sinks without a trace in minutes? Start a thread in the Lounge?

I'd have bet on Liverpool winning today. It's just a crazy season. If the EPL isn't careful top 4 will soon become 3 if English clubs don't hack it in Europe.

I watched the MOTD highlights today. There could have been quite a few goals though WH could have scored first. LVG is getting a lot of stick. He not endearing as such but he is rebuilding. Our defence shows that and Mike Smalling in particular seems to have benefitted. I like that LVG gives young players a chance. Perhaps all he needs is a goalscorer and Rooney to remain injured.

New York Times publish front page editorial for first time since 1920's, on the subject of gun control. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/05/opinion/end-the-gun-epidemic-in-america.html?_r=0

The Man in the High Castle is currently a series on Amazon which I don't have but I'm told it's good. It's based on this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_in_the_High_Castle The author also wrote the already mentioned Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep which Bladerunner was based on.

This is Narnia. Always Winter, never Christmas.

What a Waster I know nothing about this song........but Otta, it's for you PS It's not even a song.......just the lyrics

Gary Neville to coach Valencia until the end of the season. Their owner has links with Salford City. Will miss his punditry.

What about a Christmas towel set? She's bound to shower.

Seems like a cheap dig at Americans.Everything that's tasteless is their fault? at least people kept quiet between points which is the main thing. Not sure you get that when Argentina play at home in DC.

Great win and fun.

From what I heard Vlad has the option of a re-match.

I hope Spurs long mid-week journey doesn't affect them too much.

Am I right in thinking WH had more points at this stage last season? Not that it's all about points of course. As for United being boring,I do think they looked a lot better when Luke Shaw was playing.

C'mon on you boys in blue. Good atmosphere at the tennis. Shame Henman & Fleming didn't travel for security reasons to do their usual BBC stint.

Come on Scotland.....GB. Long time since you won it.

Oh those.....but if they have holly in them it's supposed to symbolise the crown of thorns Jesus wore. The red berries being his blood. Either way it's not for pagans I guess.

Sorry to intrude but how is 'wreath making' considered 'festive fun'? Are you expecting some funerals? Perhaps I should be giving this thread a wide berth as I may now become a marked man. Maybe that's what the festive fun is.......

Review on Amazon for their Fire Stick: I bought this as an electronic babysitter, for my husband, who is five. Oh, wait, not five, 48. I was pig-sick of him watching Netflix on his mobile phone, with his netbook pinging up Facebook messages, with the TV on full blast, and the sound from his Netflix leaking out of his earphones, because he had that on full volume as well, to counter-balance whatever was happening on the TV he wasn't watching. It has worked a treat, as he now watches endless hours of crap on the big TV, while his netbook and phone ping Facebook messages at him, and he lies on the couch, re-arranging his crotch, and grunting. The installation was easy, despite the fact that I only have full use of one hand, I didn't need any screwdrivers, and I'm not allowed hammers anyway. I did stand on an apple that the dog had taken behind the TV, for dog-reasons, and it squidged between my toes a bit, but I don't suppose that's a universal installation issue, not everyone having a dog that hides fruit behind the TV. The plug-and-play nature of the device meant that I was able to install without asking for help from a man, and I didn't even break any fingernails. I'm relatively certain I've deleted any links to my social media from Amazon, so the husband won't be able to ferret about, at two in the morning, while he's watching something with boobs in, or yet another concert from the time period when I was being potty-trained, and see all of the nasty things I say about him. For me, it has been ?35 well-spent, although the glut of adverts offering it for ?25 have been a bit of a kick in the crotch, I could have spent the extra ?10 on gin, but it would have been cheap gin, so there would have been no real gain.

Spooning with Rosie is a cookery book?

There's a civil war in Syria. Russia supports the existing regime, the others the rebels. Then there's IS. How the hell do you know who you are bombing?
