@GarynotPhil My favorite bit is always when you can see it going in. Usually just fast forward straight to that point.

@woodenscot @UkTruth2020 @AndreaCowanSNP @nickhobson25 @katiec1314 @Tesco @Morrisons If you're a Spanish tomoto supplier who can't meet all of the demand, reckon it'd be a pretty easy decision to just cancel all UK orders and only fulfil the orders from within the same trading market as you.

He then gave me lower odds, I keep the knight but lose a pawn. I managed to win this game first time, again by being able block his pawns from doing anything useful and keeping his king tied down to my passer on the d file. In true GM style...

[Graeme Slater @SlaterGraemeR]

a great exercise to do, as it helped me to improve my assessment of what my opponent can ACTUALLY do. A big issue for me is that I get afraid of ghosts on the board, threats that are so imminent that I don't have time to do subtle things like Rd1 or reroute a knight in 4 moves.

@Moz44127575 ...before it was a meme. You get these whole little musical enclaves with their own producers, DJs, clubs etc. that are totally localised and don't really break out much from their local area.

@Moz44127575 A lot of hard dance music (stuff in line with hard house or hardcore) in the northwest have their own little micro-genres based in specific towns and areas and that doesn't really get much prominence elsewhere. Scouse House is one, Wigan Pier is another. Donk was a microgenre...

Watching Marriage Story on Disney and it starts with a PhD student interviewing a couple about their marriage, and the woman gets flustered mid-interview because she didn't realize it'd be a semi structured interview until it started, she thought it'd be multiple choice Qs.

@Beeestonia @Moz44127575 Fuck, that's expensive.

[Graeme Slater @SlaterGraemeR]

@Moz44127575 That changes everything...

@Moz44127575 No way I could have dragged out two caramacs all the way to Easter. I could eat two just waking home from the shops.
