    Great Gigs

    Some info on how to buy returned tickets... http://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern/music-and-live-performance/kraftwerk-catalogue-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
  2. Ok, but I have to warn you that the maxxi is a protected trademark in the Footy thread...
  3. Northern Soul > Softy Southern 'Soul' Worth checking out the Don Letts' Skinhead video too...

Over 25 weeeks Lawro has scored 179 points, an average of 7.16 Over 25 weeks RD has scored 180 points, an average of 7.20...read it and weep Lawro :)
  7. What are the individual point scores then?...
  8. Are there any 'prime' scores in rugby, scores that cannot be attained mathematically because of the points scoring system?..

But over a season > it would be a miracle if he beat the odds. He was > going to do this as an experiment he said. My 'experiment' lasted a whole 2 weeks :) Week 5 (11 points scored)... I predicted two correct scores @ 17/2. If I had placed ?1 on each of the 9 games I would've made a ?10 profit in total. I predicted 7 correct results. If I had placed ?1 on each of the 9 games I would've made ?11.50 profit in total. Total profit ?21.50. Week 6 (6 points scored)... 1 correct score @ 14/1 = ?4 profit, and 4 correct results returned a loss of ?3.60, so overall a profit of 40p. Total profit after 2 weeks = ?21.90. My average score for these two weeks was 8.5pts. My average score for the whole 21 weeks is just under 7.5pts. So I performed above average for those two weeks. I haven't worked out how many correct scores I have predicted, but I reckon they are the key to whether you would make a profit or not. I think you would need to average at least 1 a week, perhaps 3 over 2 weeks, in order to make a profit...
  10. Yes, Flora Buttery, the margarine for real men...
  11. Ladies in jimjams can be a good look, a much needed antidote to the Urban Woodsman, I think more should follow LadyD's and gg's lead... *rubs hands along thighs...*
  12. Definitely lots of inverse snobbery going on in this thread. Whether you like them or not, McD's successfully serves a need, basic economic supply and demand, otherwise they wouldn't be in business...

LG, by the law of averages, one day your predictions for a Utd defeat will come about...;-)
  14. Week 22 fixtures. This week's Coupon Buster is Wigan to win at Chelsea... Saturday 9th February 2013 Tottenham V Newcastle Chelsea V Wigan Norwich V Fulham Stoke V Reading Sunderland V Arsenal Swansea V QPR Southampton V Man City Sunday 10th February 2013 Aston Villa V West Ham Man Utd V Everton Monday 11th February 2013 Liverpool V West Brom
  15. Kraftwerk vs Coldplay mashup...
  16. England team....Hart, Johnson, Cole, Cahill, Smalling, Gerrard, Walcott, Wilshere, Cleverley, Rooney, Welbeck. Looks promising for a very open friendly, is Roy's new mantra 'We'll score more goals than you'?..

  20. Week 21 results... JL - 4 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 10 pts ?? - 2 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 8 pts LG - 2 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 8 pts OT - 2 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 8 pts AM - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts Mx - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts RC - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts MM - Played a Maxxi = 5 pts RD - 2 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 5 pts EP - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts PD - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts SC - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts DR - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts
  21.

Handy, as there are two teams with the same outside odds...the Villa to win at Everton and Stoke to win at Arsenal.
  22. Dodgy Alps inspired chocolate ingots aside, the Swiss do have some uber cool buildings... http://remodelista.com/img/sub/uimg//06-2012/700_zumthor-vals-09-jpeg Vals Thermal Spa
  23. Is there a collective Swiss identity? I would've thought that with the various Cantons and spoken languages, each has it's own particular identity and customs...bit like the English and Scots, only nicer chocolate...
  24. What ???? said, none of the this one-upmanship maple cured nonsense. And if your fingers don't leave an indelible imprint in the soft doughy white bread, then it ain't a bacon sarnie butty...also needs to be bought from an establishment that wouldn't pass a hygiene test.
  25. Cheer up Jah, at least you've managed to offload Gomes...
