Also interesting to note that it was the Ukrainian government who brought in Abramovich to act as a conduit for peace negotiations. Makes a lot of what has been said by ever so pious people about his failure to speak out a tad redundant.

Third time this season we have been denied a win against Liverpool by poor refereeing. It is almost as though a pattern is developing.

i think justice was done due to ukraine

Probably the most ludicrous thing said among many ludicrous things ever said in this thread. Congratulations

For those of you interested in the technological side of F1, my chum Kit Chapman, a most engaging science historian, has just written this book:

By chance he is also speaking at the Royal Institute on Monday 8 March. Tickets still available.

Lost a roof tile and a dustbin lid last night. This shit is getting serious - and personal.

Carnage on Leyton High Road. Two cafe chairs, a bin, and one of those things the fruit sellers put their fruit on in the road. And I saw a man's woolly hat be blown off his head.

Is there a disaster relief giving site?

Oh and someone's garden refuse sack has rolled down the street like tumbleweed.

A tree in next door's front garden came down on top of the car belonging to a builder working on the house next door but one. Luckily nothing more than a couple of scratches. The builders whipped out a power saw and the tree was quickly dismantled and stowed away.

Other than that, it's been a bit of a damp squib.

First failure. Too many letters potentially fitted for a process of elimination

You don't do enough DIY, Clive.

Too much time spent doing Wordle and crosswords to have time for that.

I had AROMA which was the NY Times version. Apparently, and contrary to popular speculation, the NYT has removed more obscure and some obscene words. Those still on the old version will find that they move to the NYT if they refresh their browser.

Today's word seemed obscure enough.

4/6 today. Interesting one.

Although I accept that while we have won it all over the past decade we have never won the NLD nor the Emirates Cup. Two massive gaps in our trophy cabinet.

I’m enjoying the scorn of those who would self combust with excitement if their north London side ever qualified for the competition

STARE might be a good start

And also obvious, I can’t think of a word with the letters TRANE

To point out the obvious, the Morse analysis covers all words, not just five letter words, and so may be not representative of the distribution of letters in five letter words.

I took low scoring scrabble letters and a list of the most commonly appearing letters. I start with TRADE but TREAD would be as good. In my second and third words I try to use up other common letters leaving it to a process of elimination. Still crap at it but the method gives me comfort.

Among the more disturbing videos to emerge from the day of England’s
defeat by Italy in the final of Euro 2020 was one filmed in Leicester
Square. Charlie Perry, a 25-year-old Chelsea fan, gained notoriety as
a large group cheered raucously as he snorted a white powder in broad
daylight.

Perry was later pictured with a lit flare placed between his buttocks.
“I was off my face and I loved every minute,” he told The Sun.

Perry was not alone in his revelry. The Athletic heard several
episodes of flagrant drug use in the close vicinity of Wembley as
thousands of fans — many without tickets — congregated in the capital
in the countdown to kick-off. Violence and social disorder were later
commonplace as fans stormed entry points at Wembley, clashing with
overrun stewards.

Remember, you are Chelsea and Chelsea is style

It would certainly empty stadiums

My YouTube feed is now throwing up adverts promising to improve my [non existent] golf game when all i watch are cycling videos. I blame the impact that this thread has had on my algorithm

Oh dear. There goes Sunday.
