Not nasty enough to use the N word however - point that out :)

My heart was racing watching that. Really really well done in terms of drama and intensity. People are saying it went too far, but grim as it was, I thought it was spot on.


SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

Got that right, but it was a cruel tease, making you think that Glenn (who got the bat in the comics) might be spared. Apparently the actor (Steven Yeun) said he didn't want that moment going to anyone else.


One of the most interesting things going forward will be the fate of Daryl. He's not in the comics, so no clues there.


Speaking of the comics, I've finally started reading them, but I'm only at issue 10, all this Negan stuff is around issue 100. I've not even made the end of season 1 yet. But there are big differences. Carol is NOTHING like her TV counterpart. And Shane (main antagonist of seasons 1 & 2) wasn't around for long at all in the books. And no Merle & Daryl. Plus Carl is way younger (7 at the start).

I was only able to catch up yesterday. Also enjoyed Talking Dead's extended show and highlight reels. How young Steven Yeun looked in series 1!


I'm very sad to see him go - great character, the heart of the group. But they have gone a long time without the death of a really central character (Beth, or all the way back to Hershel?), and Glenn does die in the comics.


Excited to see where they go this season, it's certainly changed the group's world. Never read the comics so everything is a surprise.

Thought the acting was superb. From everyone, even those that didn't say much.


They actually filmed the deaths of all of them so as to keep the outcome secret. Maggie's clubbing (and Glenn's response to seeing it) has been leaked, but I don't really fancy watching that.


Anyway, it's certainly spiced things up a bit, as I thought the last season was getting slightly stale.

      Inpost "Parcel was refused" at Barry's - anyone else?

      By fishboy · Posted

      A quick update - my InPost parcels are being accepted sporadically at Barry's, but only one at a time and every few days, after many refusals - one was refused SEVEN times over about ten days - and several phone calls. As a comparison, I had a message from Yodel that a parcel that was going to Barry's is being delivered to another nearby store, which is interesting...

      GALA 2026

      By fishboy · Posted

      The "Community Benefits" are documented on P12-16 of the Consultation Document. Basically unsubstantiated estimates that it benefits local businesses, claims that it provides "opportunities" for local food traders, businesses & people (the term "opportunities" being meaningless - I have opportunities to win the lottery) without any details, facts or figures, and discounted tickets for local residents (which unsurprisingly seldom sell out). The only direct financial benefit to the Park is a £1000 "Biodiversity Fund" and an undisclosed amount for an "Environmental Impact Fee" - looking at how it was spent this year (flower beds in the playground & Sexby garden) I suspect it would be a similarly small figure. The actual site hire fee - claimed as "commercially sensitive" and therefore undisclosed - is spent on: • Funding the council’s free events programme and Cultural Celebrations Fund • Subsidised fees for community events in the borough • Off-setting the running costs of the Events service, which supports the delivery of the free community events programme  Again, no details given, just vague concepts - can anyone name any of these free & subsidised community events? Or what the "Cultural Celebrations Fund" is or does? It doesn't really sound like any of it is worth  the disturbance, restrictions, noise, litter, environmental damage and negative impact on wildlife in our Park.

      We also recommend Aaron.  Very reliable, reasonably priced and did a fantastic job on our hallway and bedroom ceiling.  A pleasure to work with and left the house very tidy at the end of the job.  Thank you
