Meant to ask yesterday does anyone have a clue on how to recover damp damaged records? Whilst packing went through my limited single collection to find most of them damaged by damp
Google it Al - there's bound to be a YouTube film of some yank showing you how to do it, there is for just about everything else!
Morning all from a dry but slightly chilly bandit country. Relaxing day in the kitchen and going to make a curry later…all on our own today, daughter is in Liverpool working and youngest son is in "The Dam" at a rave, no doubt he will be a mess when he gets home tomorrow!
10 minutes to go in the RLWC semi & England leading NZ 18-14. I have to say it's one of the best RL games I've ever seen - never expected this from England.
Bad luck England - a silly high tackle with 25 seconds to go cost them a game they deserved to win. 20-18 to the Kiwis.
Morning all from a damp and chilly bandit country. Absolute rubbish in the cricket and if they do not make a significant improvement, they will be on the boat home minus The Ashes. But have the Aussie press reached a new low that makes The NOTW at it's lowest look like The FT? To stoop to "our women are better looking than yours" as a story, just goes to show the level of the media there.
Not sure that it's fair to tar them all with same brush - they're not really that different from the press here. Which particular paper stooped to that story - I regularly read the only national daily as well as the main ones from Brisbane & Sydney, but never came across that?
It was reported on 5-Live this morning BB - I suspect it is the same Brisbane rag that has been utterly childish in their reporting of Broad. Coming on top of the radio shows prank call that caused a decent person to commit suicide does not exactly paint a good picture..
The Courier Mail? Not exactly top drawer as newspapers go, but not the culprits - as a trawl of their site revealed, so I'm not sure where it came from. Re the 'Broad Ban' campaign the paper ran, it was relatively good-natured, as Broad himself has identified.The paper simply sees itself as an extension of the Gabba crowd - and the Gabba crowd ran with it, with some success it would appear. http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/...first-ashes-test/story-fnihsr9v-1226767155119 And it ended the ban on his name in fine style with the headline 'Broad smiles as Poms crushed'. There, as here, sledging isn't restricted to the field of play.
Great showing from Ireland against the All Blacks this afternoon. Have they been watching Watford games showing how to lose in the last minute?
