Every fresh page ... a few seconds in while I'm reading, the ad at the bottom scrolls up and fills most of the page. Even more annoying while I'm typing. Been like this a while and its about the most obtrusive irritating advertising I cone across, other than Reach "local" news websites, which I...

I'm sure some if my fellow nerds in here must have tried VR. Just got a Meta Quest 3 and a 3s this week (used) and have been enjoying the cricket and tennis games against the missus, that arthritis now prohibits. Absolutely brilliant fun. A thread to chat about games experiences here might be...

Saw this. AI was asked to sum up all clubs in just 1 word. Nailed us pretty well. 🤣...

Looks like the lad's been offered the Brazil job. Was kinda hopeful he might cone back here and be part of the new dawn. Obviously it's just a job to him and all these warm words about the club were the usual word salad from those trained for the media. We were clearly just a stop gap.

Despite knowing better from being on this site for 13 years, I'm going to ask some advice from you loveable goons. I'm contemplating putting an epoxy garage floor paint onto our concrete floored car port, which also serves as a porch, so it would benefit from sprucing up. It's a bit lightly...

A team of scientists have detected gases on a planet outside our solar system, that here on earth can only be made by living things. The suggestion is that the planet contains life (there is no suggestion yet that it's anything other than microbial). Other scientists are looking to see if they...

100 years ago today (21st March 2025) I believe this gentleman made his debut for Everton. Could do with him now.

Moved into our house in a close in a small town in north Wilts 10 years ago last summer. After a year or so I started getting on with an auld fella cross the road in his late 70s. An engineer an inspiration. We shared a love of old cars and machinery. He inspired me into a hobby buying and...

Here the anvil is wrapped and I can't wait to see the joy in her face tomorrow, if she recovers from her dose of the norovirus. What have you fellas got the lady in your life.

From the takeover thread - got me thinking back. E.g.: Everton 1.0 - St Domingos cricket club Everton 1.1 - St Domingos FC Everton 2.0 - Everton FC Discuss Everton x Win Vista - Moshiri Everton Everton x+1 - TFG Everton What are the other significant stages, eg moving to goodison Everton...

When I were a wee lad a toilet was simple. Polish with the izal, yank the chain, hope the cistern doesn't come clattering on yer head and go. Today, because the likes of private water companies keep spilling our drinking water so they can maximise the amount of money they send off to tory...

Help me out. I love my food and I'll eat anything... but I have preferences and there are only a few things I'd rarely choose or avoid. I love a rich curry - jalfrezi is bliss. The missus and her family nearly always choose a Chinese. The problem is, in my experience, there are only two dish...

When I was 10, our family holiday would see us tramping down from Salford to my auntie's guest house on the south coast at Bournemouth. At the time, my dad had a Daimler 250 v8 that he got cheaply off a family connection. I loved it. I still do. To this day it has the most beautiful engine...

Might level the playing field and turn the "entertainment" into a competitive sport again. At least until the corrupt goblins running it all figure out a way of subverting it. https://www.90min.com/premier-league-clubs-vote-to-introduce-spending-cap?utm_source=fotmob&utm_medium=share

Where's my brother in cynicism? Last posted in February. Is he ok? Anyone in "outside world" contact with him?

A thread for those of us wishing to offload (in my case, literally). In sure some of you are, for whatever serious reason - but this is my day today: Tomorrow morning I'm having a routine procedure - an examination - because of family history. Since Saturday I've nit been allowed ANY of my...

It's international happiness day* today (20th March) - so if you need an institutionalised commemorative event to motivate you to be happy, whether you're a billionaire on a yacht off the Dubai coast, swilling caviar by the bucket, or whether you've lost everything you have and live by the skin...

Looks like it might be a thing. I'm deeply concerned about how British establishments use the term "independent" though. An independent committee always awards MPs enormous annual pay rises. Independent ofgem is run by former directors and current investors in energy companies - our upcoming...

Just read an article about how Everton are looking for cash for the naming rights for the new stadium. As usual with modern reporting - alot of words were used, little said. We currently know the plot as Bramley Moore. Will that stick? It's an area locals might be used to referring to...
