Re: RIP Alexei Navalny

A Russian Lamarque? Obviously he will have seen himself as a 'dead man walking'. If he had any hand in his own demise, he will have been thinking about strategic times to do so.

Re: Мудак

So there is some Russian chap who is claiming that Prigozhin is alive and well, and living on a resort island in Venezuela with Elvis Presley.

Well actually, the Russian chap doesn't say the bit about Elvis Presley, that was added by the writer of the article. He does say the rest, though.

Re: Change A Letter, Ruin A Band

I remember we had this discussion where it was determined that adding letter isn't changing a letter. I never thought that strictness was necessary, so I happily report that the local washing machine parlour has a band, too , the Bleach Boys. So adding is no good? Crapping all over the place, The T...

Re: What sports teams do you support?

Ireland 36 - 0 Italy Bonus point for Ireland. I feel like the score does not reflect the quality of Italy’s play, which has improved substantially in recent years. But, the score is what it is. Table points: Ireland - 10 (still play England, Scotland, Wales) England - 8 (still play Ireland, Scotland...

2. England
3. Scotland

5. Wales
6. Italy
