That is a deadly wind up! Jamie Bryson jumped into it with both feet. His tweet is now deleted. He wasn't on his own either, looks like there's plenty fell for it

I had a OnePlus 3, now I have a 5T. I had that 2 years in December past and still going strong on a SIM only contract. Great phones, and will be staying with OnePlus for the next one

You, on Netflix, the second series

Finished it last night.

Decent watch with plenty of twists in it.

On to Messiah now.....1st episode didnt set the world alight

I didn't overly enjoy You 2, thought it dragged on a bit.

Started Messiah as well, only watched 2 episodes but enjoying it so far. The wife enjoying it too and she wouldn't normally be bothered with subtitles.

Watched Unbelievable on Netflix over Christmas, enjoyed it. Based on a true story and the series seems to have stayed fairly close to the story itself

Looking at the figures Boris will win this election by a very large margin.

Way too early to tell that!! Also he's had a bad couple of days on the campaign trail so far this thing will close and it'll be a hung parliament!

I am worried this may be the outcome.

If it is then it's the end of Corbyn so basically it's the end of Corbyn or the end of Johnson I expect. I would rather see Johnson finished than Corbyn but I think it is a matter of time and the right circumstances before Corbyn is ousted anyway. I think this could be them.

I don't get why so many want to see the end of Corbyn.
Looking at the leaders of all the main parties, he's the only one who seems to be genuine when it comes to the NHS, the poor, the students and workers.
Forgetting about Brexit for a second, these are things that actually affect people currently and will continue to do so in the future.
I see lots of comments about anyone being better than Corbyn so they are voting Tory to keep him out but from my perspective, anyone is better than any Tory. I personally like Corbyn's politics.

I think Boris and Farage will do a deal and it could well still be as drastic as being a no-deal Brexit being the arrangement.
This could give the Tories a majority. Without that deal, I think it will only ever be a hung parliament.
I think Lib Dems will increase their share of the vote with the Remain promise, Labour will win in some areas and lose to UKIP/Tories in others with their promise of a people's vote.
I wonder would LibDems and Labour team up to form a coalition in the case of a hung parliament?

I terms of the local MPs, I'd like to see almost any opportunity taken to reduce the DUP representation in Westminster.
They are toxic.
To the point, that in the absence of any official pact with Alliance/SDLP I'd hope SF will decide not to run a candidate in certain constituencies to ensure a remain candidate is returned.
Their abstentionist policy wont change, so there is a need to look at the bigger picture on how they can influence proceedings in Westminster. Personally, I think Alliance have some excellent options and for SDLP I think Hanna is very good. I think they could represent the majority of the people here in terms of Brexit opinion.

If Boris and Farage do a deal with no deal as the arrangement, would Boris not lose a portion of his vote who want to leave with a deal?

When they see us... brutal

Excellent show, surreal story.

Oprah Winfrey did an hour long show with the cast and the fellas themselves afterwards. All still very raw for one of them in particular, heartbreaking. It's on Netflix too

Any recommendations for an android phone around £150. Father in law is after one, will be used for a bit of browsing, skygo and maybe casting the likes of Netflix and TeaTv/Terrarium, etc...

I've a OnePlus 5T and recommended it but he doesn't want to go to that price range. I saw a OnePlus 5 at £200 which he might go to - anyone had a 5? I'm assuming there isn't much difference in the 5 and the 5T?

Any other recommendations?

Feel shit reopening this thread reading Jim's story (hope it ended well) but Baby Farr is due in 7 weeks.

Biggest live changing event your ever gona have.. get ready to be in autopilot mode for the first 8-10 weeks.

I survive on 6 hours a night sleep - thought i was gona be fine. the first 8 weeks your gona be up every 3 hours - broken sleep is awful. even if you get 2 x 3 hours its not the same.

As someoene said before - get a night or 2 away before. Buy a Sterilizer.

#Top tip for making bottles. have a bottle with cool boiled water(i.e boil water - let it go cold and put it in a sealable bottle) - mix this with the boiling water - this so you dont have to stand witha  bottle under a tap to cool it or wait onit. babys are not patient lol!!

Dont hold back with changing etc - its go a be new to everyone.

Or invest in a perfect prep machine. Didn't have one for the first 2. Have an 11 week old at the minute, the machine's a great job!

Starting to get a bit more sleeping at night now thankfully

£25m bid from Arsenal now for Tierney

Did Cavanagh touch the ball on the ground in the square after Morgan saved a shot at goal in the first half? Replays didn't focus on it so it was difficult to see

Surely that is as clear as black card as there ever has been and still no card.

The pull down on McShane? Very strange decisions, looked a stone wall black

Yes that is the one. Even mcshane was wondering what was going on. Shambles of a ref performance to be honest. Gaa obsessed with changing rules etc to make the game better but have refs like mcgoldrick who cant even apply the current rules correctly to 2 teams in a single game.

Very inconsistent. Seemed like a lot of challenges around the neck. Nothing all day and then pulls a yellow out for one. The McShane one stood out though.

That long ball from Morgan, catch by Sludden and point by Burns (I think) in the first half was a great passage of play. Not sure Sludden should've been allowed to catch that ball.

Thanks everyone. M50 was grand, bit slow when we got off it bit not too bad. Just landed in now. Civil enough crowd so we should be ok getting in if we spilt up. Looking forward to it.

Any recommendations or where to go? Especially for the match tomorrow night
