Philheybrookbay1 247 Posted August 19, 2022 Dating. Haven’t been on a proper date for over 5 years and to be honest I’m fairly none plused either way. I ain’t putting out tonight either. Haven’t the time or thought to start trimming the forest- actually is private hair in or out at the moment? I get so confused. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,233 Posted September 10, 2022 The think most irking me at the moment is every commentator tripping over themselves to be sure to call Camilla Queen-Consort or Queen-Consort Camilla. Queen Elizabeth consort of George VI Queen Mary consort of George V Queen Alexandra consort of Edward VII Queen Adelade consort of William IV Queen Caroline consort of George IV All consorts. But styled Queen. Is it just so long since we have had a King and Queen? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully it’ll settle after the funeral. The media treat us all like morons and they probably think people are going to hear “queen” and think QEII’s done a Lazarus.

Toast 16,131 Posted September 11, 2022 Yes, I think referring to Camilla alone as "the Queen" at the moment will lead to confusion with the late Queen. But they shouldn't have a problem with saying "the King and Queen" as this phrase hasn't been current for 70 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted September 12, 2022 The TV show Celebrity SAS or whatever it's called. In fact any piece of cultural product where an ex-SAS, or SEAL or any country's special forces member tries to play the hard man but instead comes across more like Brian Glover in Kes than R Lee Ermey in Full Metal Jacket. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philheybrookbay1 247 Posted September 20, 2022 Dating. What a shame you can’t give people a public review on sexual performance. Because the last one whilst being relatively good looking was a terrible experience. Mr I Win I Win. I didn’t get to win once….. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They did the same on Radio 4 with I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue and Just A Minute and eventually they settled on good hosts so I'll give each one a go but Sally has not done well so far.

If Ryan Moore (any jockey really) wasn't a midget, I'm sure he'd have decked him by now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lilham 752 Posted September 23, 2022 The fact that I got an ESPN+ (disney+/hulu) package to specifically watch tennis, and they won't show anything besides the early rounds/children. I called to ask where my matches were, and they suggested I check out the infinite Marvel movies on disney+ instead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I called to ask where my matches were, and they suggested I check out the infinite Marvel movies on disney+ instead. The streaming service situation, especially in the U.S, infuriates me. You are telling me every sport is on a different service, some of which still restrict by location? Not to mention they don't have recordings you can watch later, unlick cable which has the ability to record programming. They all continually raise their prices, they all continue to incorporate advertisements throughout the service, and they all divide up shows/movies to the point of ludicrous levels. Now we have HBO Max with Discovery+ merging and Disney+ with Hulu merging, which may seem positive till you see the new prices! I don't have much faith in humanity in general, but holy fuck. They have ruined what was an amazing concept started over a decade ago. I'm getting to the point of just cancelling everything. It's gotten worse than cable was. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
