Amongst the others

While lying on his back to shoot a picture of the ceiling, a photographer was approached by curious pigeons.

unfortunately, this is photoshopped

Onn the subject of interesting photographs, I spotted this yesterday.

It was a "Wisden Cricket Photo of the Year" or somesuch, so I'd like to assume it is genuine.


I stared at it for an age, it poses so many questions, & has so many contrasts in one image - danger, relaxation etc.

this is a real photogragh, taken by former Australian captain Steve Waugh

Oh my

lol!!

brings me back to revision for a whole module on company meetings and for the Chartered secretaries qualification many years ago, this was far more entertaining

FYI, part of the WPT Montreal festival

My eldest (went into a care provider graduate scheme in 2019. Timing is everything) got his first vaccine today

Quite emotional I found myself.

we are on hiatus

Interested, please include me in invites.

That is not party's strategy. Our current KO Series is thrashing guarantees, our Daily Legends tournaments continue to do well etc

Extraordinary new figures just published by the ONS

Between Dec 27 and Jan 2, an estimated 2.06% of the whole population had covid, or 1 in 50. That's 1.12 million people. Up more than 300,000 from only the week before, when it was 1.47% or 1 in 70.

How would you vote on this and why?

Dynasty league money settled

Roll on the draft

Delighted to win the dynasty. The league was my introduction to fantasy (thanks Sheriff) and I was clueless during the set up draft

Hated the roster which had started poorly, unsurprisingly so year one went for the complete rebuild, trading players and starting again with a view from going bottom to top in 3-4 years

Along the way picked up Tyreek Hill and George Kittle among others on waivers, made some good trades, made some bad trades with hindsight and didn't have a top four draft pick once. Getting Dalvin Cook with pick 5 was a bit of luck that season. Alvin Kamara went sixth!

It's the fifth or sixth season now, and this year was tougher than last year when i ran well, was injury free but underperformed and lost to bobby1 in the final.

Consciously had to give up some longer term value trading away Michael Thomas and Kittle to go for it this season while I was near a roster peak, but beset by injuries. I was playing Baker Mayfield v the Jets in the final before their WRs went onto the COVID list, switched back to Big Ben who was pointless at halftime, then began calling his own plays in the game, scored 25 fantasy points in the second half and it all turned round

A lot of hidden luck every week in this game!

I would play a dynasty start up too

think that makes six of us, needing 10 or so?
