    Southampton to beat Manc Utd.
    Luke Shaw 83rd minute. Final score 1 – 0

    The boy’s been trying so hard to get a goal lately – shame his finishing rivals Jack Cork’s. I predict Saints utterly, utterly dominating Utd but with the usual lack of penetration and conceding a couple via silly mistakes. If Lallana is actually leaving (perish the thought)then he’ll likely be all out to get a final goal.

    If Giggs gives himself a final game I’ll feel sorry for him – Wanyama’s a beast and in fine form.

    Fingers crossed Guly gets chance to score his first prem goal* on his last game for us.

    Hoping city win the prem, purely as the couple of Pool fans at work have been crowing for months. And because I could watch Silva play football all day – the man’s amazing!

    *for saints. we don’t count the one he scored for arsenal :roll:

    ^ his video “taking le tiss” is a piece of homespun magic – so bad and so good at the same time!

    anyhoo – FIFAs goal of the year for last year – i’m not sure i’d go that far, but it’s pretty snazzy

    wikipedia possibly has a clue:

    Drummer Matt Everitt was fired in 1996 and later joined The Montrose Avenue,[1] he now works on the news team at Radio station 6Music

    ^^ suggestion noted, cheers. I vaguely remember hell comes to frogtown from years ago. Not enough to opine on it though. After They Live, Rowdy Roddy Piper can’t do much wrong in my book,

    Safety Not Guaranteed, like wot i raved about on the last netflix thread. Also the two Mesrine films are brilliant (the life of a french gangster). Agreed, End of Watch is great.
    Myn Bala is worth a watch for the scenery as much as anything – it’s a fairly run of the mill plot but i enjoyed it.

    That’s all i can remember from my free month – i’m trialling Amazon prime (evil though amazon is, i know) this month and their streaming collection widdles all over netflix (mainly world films, not many hollywood blockbusters – i’m now a korean revenge-thriller addict) to the extent i may pay for prime as i won’t have exhausted it in a month

    Public Service Broadcasting to the rescue

    As the rules seem flexible, how’s about a video in a train station?

    How anyone can listen to that crap all day I’ve no idea

    the popular justification seems to be “I know it’s crap, but i want to hear the traffic news”

    To my mind, if you need 8hrs notice to plot an alternate route for a 3 mile commute then you really shouldn’t be allowed to drive. or breathe.

    I get the urge to ring up and tell that Hawkins lad that it’s okay, he can relax and figure out the sentence before he begins it, we won’t turn off. Rather than littering thought-pauses everywhere but where they should be.

    or better still get the DVD.

    Now that i know this is a thing that exists, I must have it.
    Good album, I could happily listen to Everest for hours at a time.

    Saw them a few months ago and had one of those enlightenment moments upon realising i was surrounded by the type of short, wiry, bespectacled, balding men who you’d put money on having electricity connected to their sheds and skills with a soldering iron. Felt like i’d finally found my people* (A very entertaining show too)

    deserter They can sometimes fall into the trap of just putting lots of bass on an antique sample, but generally they do good works with a hell of a range of guests ( J.O.G.J.A. with Indonesian vocalists is brilliant)

    *my shed does not have electricity, but i have a dream. and a soldering iron.

    as everyone else has ignored the “non-comedy” stipulation, so shall I. Check out Wasting Away (i think it’s a happy ending, can’t quite remember):

    Will return the favour with Twilight Samurai.

    i started watching that last night, but couldn’t get into it (wrong mood at the time as as much as anything). Will try it again today if it’s worth the go.

    I presumed it was all in, may explain the lack of choice if there’s top-ups to be had though. Three weeks into the month free trial and i’ve watched everything i’d consider “must watch”, now lucky dipping thorugh the indie and world films. There’s not enough choice for me to actually subscribe to it, a free month trial every year’d do me.

    Someone mentioned here recently that someone they knew just made new email accounts and perpetually free-trialled.

    p.s. this is well worth watching by the way:

    There was a thread a few months ago if you dig

    I bookmarked this from one of the recent ones – presumably if you use it as a template, a little research into which upgrades your excess budget could best be spent on should see you alright.

    tucker and dale +1 – it’s excellent!
    For this kind of low budget stuff, see also the Feast trilogy.. it’s like a genre-mocking, extra-gory Tremors (with added zen-like Henry Rollins)

    #edit – the whole first one’s on the tube, in 240p glory no less

    Rubber was actually pretty good from what i remember (though i was heavily, heavily stoned whilst watching it, and possibly asleep for the middle section). I may in fact mean it was pretty weird rather than good. worth a try though.

    I bought hobo with a shotgun when it came out after reading some good review or other. Despite it being utterly shit from most angles, i enjoyed thought it was okay. this may only have been because a) i’d spent money on it, and b) chappy from trailer park boys and thingy from Lex were in it.

    Everyone else i know hated it, if that’s of any relevance.

    found this site a couple of weeks ago and have been ignoring my own music collection since. ’tis ace.

    http://www.xwaveradio.com/
    haven’t listened to this for a while but used to be a great mix of electronica/post-punk and such – there was a canadian lad on sunday nights who had a vast collection of brilliant stuff i’d never heard of before or since.

    #edit, links to the Japanese stations please? I’m interested..

    Krakow was ace (recent poland thread) when i was there in the summer, at least a weekend’s worth of things to do at a relaxed pace.

    I was pricing up Gdansk/Danzig recently for a few days away – the old town looks nice:

    and i think it worked out at £75 for flights (from stansted) and four nights in a hostel. Though i probably missed some stealth charges on the flights. To do it non-tightwad fashion should still be reasonable i’d guess.

    Alternatively Luxembourg’s dull, but very pretty if there’s snow (and i enjoyed the train journey back through a blizzard)
