    Still a solitary lapwing flapping about this afternoon. No sign of any others though.

    The last time I saw any number was on moorland driving across the A66 from Penrith last year (must have been over a hundred).

    Finally heard a Cuckoo this week and the Swallows are back in the Garage. 😎

    Most bets are already covered so I'll go for a few outliers.

    £1 for every game Placheta appears in. - £26 (have included his Swansea games)

    £1 for every goal scored by loanees Kamara and Tzolis. - £26 (8+18)

    £1 for each City win in the season (all comps). - £24 (21+2+1)

    £10 for reaching the play-offs or automatic promotion. - £10

    And the traditional YKW bets.

    £10 if McKenna leaves for any reason. - £0

    £10 if they score fewer than 60 goals in the league. - £0

    £10 for a bottom-half finish. - £0

    £10 for each goal scored against them in the derby. 😁 - £30 (2+1)

    Hi all, according to a combination of my dodgy maths and Soccerway I make it £116 in earnings, which I'll round up to £120. Cash on it's way to you Eddie! 💛💚

  3. Hi PUPs, for the final pick I'll stay in one of my favourite hunting grounds in Turkey with ISTANBUL BASAKSEHIR VS. KASIMPAŞA (home win).

    For the match bet I'll go for SvH to score last (again, again, again).

    Thanks to Nutty for all the hard work, and all the PUPs participants over the years, it's been a blast and has always been the best thread on the site! 🏆💛💚

    There are a few I believe.

     

    Here's one.

     

     

    And another on the country's history... Not Top Gear related but what the hell...(maybe not everyone's taste SL).

     

    Saw Stewart Lee at the King's Theatre in Glasgow last month. £4.60 for a bottle of Peroni 0% (poured into a plastic pint pot) ...It's political correctness gone mad, Stew.

    Although to be fair it was worth it, great gig. 🤣

    I've just booked a 3 day boating holiday on the Broads starting at Stalham, not been since I was a kid but very happy memories. 

    Anyone have any recommendations (that the kids would enjoy)?

    I was many moons ago. The Swan has great food/drink, Cawdrons breakfast/roast rolls are immense, and a good selection of takeaways along the street (was last down in March).

    And Tesco shuts at 4 on Sunday. 🤦🤣

  6. Hi PUPs, a massive thanks to Nutty for all of his hard work over the years and it's been hugely enjoyable being involved. If you can find it there's also the early season pledges to be settled which should hopefully add to some extra cheddar to the pot.

    This week I'm off to Germany Bundesliga II with St Pauli (home win).

    For the City game Fassnacht to score last.

    Best of luck everyone!

  7. News interviews on the radio and the increasingly chummy introductions and endings which leave little actual time for discussing the issue. 

    So, welcome Blah from Blah, great to have to you on the show to talk about this very important issue, how are you doing, you well? That's great, thanks for having me and giving me the opportunity to talk about this very important issue. I'm well thanks, you? I'm great, so about this very important issue...two or three banal questions/answers follow.

    Well, that was very interesting and is about all the time we've got, I'd like like to thank Blah from Blah for taking the time out of their very busy schedule to discuss this very important issue. No, it was my pleasure and thanks to you for giving me the chance to showcase this very important issue and happy to come back anytime to provide an update. That's great, already looking forward to seeing you again. Me too. Cheers. Bye. Cheers. Bye. Cheers. Bye-bye.
