Can't believe that plane is still missing. Over a week now and nothing reported.

Not sure if this has been covered already but this fascinates me. In these days and ages and the vast amounts of technology that we have and it can't be traced...

 

Apologies if posted elsewhere, it's just that I don't know whether to take it seriously:

In a number of articles just emerging from NewsNow, it appears that Morgan could consider playing for England, if eligible [I believe he might be] and selected. Personally, I think he's way better than his equivalent in Carrick, and I'd take him to Brazil.

Of course, this is probably all speculation and a bit of fun, but interesting all the same.

 

Sorry to burst the bubble, but I'm 99.999% sure he's ineligble to play for England

 

Spud Alford just followed me on Twitter. Odd, I remember reading about him.

No Yoko Ono, though.

 

Nor Rebecca Black.

 

Nor Rebecca Black...

 

I don't think Schneiderlin has ever expressed an interest in playing for England (unless anyone knows differently)...he has stated frustration that no one seems to have considered him for France and also said that English players get more opportunities if they play well, but has stopped short of wanting to change allegiance. To make such a statement would kill any chance of a call up which may yet come. Sadly for Morgan, I think the French don't seem interested because he plays in England in a highly competitive position.

 

"No Fat Ladies" Just heard Clarissa Dickson Wright has passed away. I have never liked Cooking type programmes, but I did find interest in the Two Fat Ladies programme for some reason! Only 66 same as me, RIP.

 

Apparently she said, 'I've had a fantastic life.' Isn't that what we'd all like to be able to say.

Just read from an obituary that she had to give up a career as a barrister at Grey's Inn because of alcoholism, but then stayed clean for 27 years.

 

Listening to the Oscar Pistorius trial, I think that, although he may not have meant to kill his girlfriend, he sounds like a very dangerous man who was an accident waiting to happen. I think that, although he was said to be afraid of a home invasion, he actually was on a hair trigger and wanted such a thing to happen. He is at least guilty of manslaughter caused by his reckless behaviour.

 

Any one seen a british film called The Rise?

 

No I haven't http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1981140/ Why do you ask?

 

Crashed on a mate's sofa bed last night after some heavy drinking, and this guy we barely know stayed over as well, didn't sleep at all and played FIFA all night in the same room I was trying to sleep in (with a girl as well). He started at 2am and is still playing now. Over 15 hours of FIFA. No sleep.

 

That's nothing. Check this out: http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-e...t-in-herre-for-68-straight-hours-9197649.html

 

It's actually a good film that's why.

 

Seems like you missed a golden opportunity to practice your face punching.

 

Why didn't you throw his head through the door?

 

I'll take your word on that, not many films rate good these days.

 

L'Wren Scott girlfriend of Mick Jagger has committed suicide. Never know what's going on in people's lives...money and success doesn't stop despair.

 

Because you have to be nice to people who are bipolar, have just got out of rehab for drug addiction and are prone to depression.
