    The Football Thread - Season 2012/2013

    I have a mate who does, although it’s pronounced slightly differently to when he does the “yid army” chants. When I asked him about it he said that “yid” wasn’t offensive in itself and used between friends was a respectful term but depended on context can also be derogatory, a little bit like...

    Another cycling controversy

    That sort of thing goes on at every level of cycling and always will. At an amateur level I’ve been in breakaways before when another rider has offered the prize money to let them win (to get the points to move up a category usually). I just went for the win anyway, if I won then full...

    The bench in the picture was half an hours bike ride away from civilisation along a bike / footpath so I can only assume the carried it there! Have a great holiday, the weather was changeable during our stay but generally OK. Cheers, I think it's one of my better efforts as well.

    Ipad apps for kids (6yr old)

    I know, I think it a bit silly myself and wouldn’t have bought her one, but it’s free so I don’t mind so much. She’s actually pretty deprived compared to her friends, no TV in her bedroom, no DS, no PSP, no iPod Touch, no laptop, no cell phone, so this will be her...

    Ipad apps for kids (6yr old)

    I’ve won another iPad at work, I can’t stand the things myself but my daughter is quite keen on keeping this one because some of her friends have them. Does anyone have any recommendations for apps suitable for a 6 year old girl, preferably with at least some educational content? Something...
