you can already get fingerprint recognition on iphones (i don't use that option though), so probably other phone makes already do this ? That's one you can tick-off..

What rahrah said. You can always assume it ain't worth trying and perpetuate that negative impression for yourself, or knock on doors and discover that people are mainly OK, especially when they realise you're straight-up.

Anthony Joshua has an IBF title fight on 9th April against Charles Martin (who I think got the belt by default when Fury wouldn't agree to fight him as the mandatory opponent, after beating Klitschko). That's very soon for Joshua to get a shot, I'd like to see him have some strong build-up fights, but good luck to him. ETA: Martin may have won the title from Glazkov in a fight for the vacant belt, actually.

if this is true it's really crappy.

Try penge

Basically is Khan powerful enough to knock-out a 175lb boxer with a good chin ? If not, then it doesn't matter what speed he's got and he needs to avoid getting drawn into a trade with Alvarez.

That's a fair point Otta. I'd only say that neither does humiliating or insulting your opponent belong in sport, whether inside or outside the ring/site of play.

"I believe the HBO dude asked him if he was holding back to prolong the fight, and he said yes, I wanted to fight more rounds to punish him! Maybe Pascal's corner should have pulled him out earlier, if it was that one-sided and Pascal was taking heavy damage." Max Leberman (or however it's spelt) asked Kovalev if it was try he'd been holding back, to which Kov said yes to extend the pain for Pascal. Max asked how Kov thinks the fans will receive a comment such as that, where a fighter is trying to extend the pain. Kov said the fans realise that Pascal is not a decent person and recognise Kov is a good person. I actually found the way Max approached the subject quite nasty, as if he's trying to find fault with Kov (who had copped a load of nasty comments from Pascal in build-up to fight, including accusations if racism). It makes me wonder if it's really all about Kov not being an American fighter. Basically Pascal acted the fool in front, then got owned. Kov v Ward later this year is the LHW headline I reckon. Khan fighting Alvarez, who will weigh 170-175lbs, is a hiding in waiting.

No way he'll get a licence. Kovalev did a proper job on Jean Pascal in their 2nd fight. (Rd8 TKO). I read yesterday the Kov beat a guy in Russia who later died. He's a very heavy hitter. Pascal took a proper beating on Sat, often fighters don't come back / are never same after that.

I go to Huddersfield a bit and do: - Come off M1 at J1, follow roundabouts to top of Edgeware Rd. - drive down thru Kilburn to Marble Arch - Park Lane, Hyde Park Corner, Victoria - Vauxhall Bridge Rd and bridge - Oval, Camberwell, ED.

So you abasolutely need the ducting ? Can't the filters in the extractor take care of the gunk ?

...like ?6 hot dogs and ?8 burgers down Northcross Rd ?

Or there's picking up another dog's poo in the park because that's where your dog just was (looking like he was laying cable), only to find as you pick it up, it's not warm - it's some other dog's (cold) turd. But you pick it up anyway cos it needed picking up.

Another distraction from dog poo ! OMG it's a conspiracy....

Interesting situation. I was in a restaurant on Wednesday evening, something similar happened. There was a table of 3, 2 men and 1 woman, sat a couple of tables away. They'd obviously had a few drinks and their conversation was frequently loud with huge guffaw outbursts. For long periods my friends and I had to halt our chats and wait to continue. Is noise in a restaurant from children less valid than noise from adults ? If not, then is your problem actually with kids rather than noise / distraction levels ? i.e. If you'd had to stop your conversation because of adults, would you have started a thread about adults in restaurants ? It's a Friday night after all, so some noise surely is to be expected - especially in a curry house, so who cares who it's from !?

I don't think anyone is excusing dog poo. But this thread IS about dog poo, so let's not dilute it with 'other forms of litter', bothersome environmental concerns such as neighbour noise, rowdy behaviour or airplanes overhead !! It does smart of cover-up. Dog poo is different, it comes out of dog's bums and smells high-heaven and gets walked into your hallway - it's in a class of it's own. Disgusting animal excrement. And it's depressing to see it on the pavements of our streets. There is no excuse and, to be honest, I think all dogs in cities should be DNA-recorded and then we'd soon see a massive decline in dog fouling as samples from streets are matched against the deliquent dogs. Big fines. Big difference.

Puffa Puffa Rice. Less-pressured work. Illegal late-night bars around Cambridge Circus.

Franklins, yes, but you can still have a good sesison down the fornt of the bar (which I do monthly).

i think there's room for both, but probably it's a function of how much free time / evenings folks have to go see a film locally.

there's often a bit of tension around the pool tabel in a pub, but so what, the odd broken nose and stabbing, a couple of lost teeth here or there, a ripped shirt and tankard wound in the face, it's gool old-fashioned fun (chortle), if I remember the thread a few months ago correctly..

red leb spangles kissing 'open' or 'closed' mouth

at least the nutters are in one place, so we can keep an eye on 'em.

Not what I remember, Admin. I thought it was someone feeling C&D'd from the experience in (a pub like) the EDT, then moving on to the Vale for a life-changing experience ? Maybe I read it too fast last time and got wrong end of stick... Either way, top catchphrase !

Ah relief, I didn't cop much boxing this weekend, but the little I did see I thought I'd paid attention !

Won't someone think of the slugs ?
