No. What I am saying is that going to the cinema is an experience. Much like going to a fancy restaurant.

Spooning tramps is also an experience, doesn't mean it should cost more than it's worth.

 

[Tom]

I just find the cinema a bit of a horribly greedy, consumerist experience though. Crap food charged at a fortune, sitting beside the great unwashed, folk that talk and check their phones.

I don't mind paying a premium at a fancy restaurant if the food is delicious.

It's a good point, in a nice restaurant nobody smokes because they'd be kicked out immediately. When was the last time you saw anyone in a cinema be held to account for ignoring the rules?

Going to the cinema is certainly an experience but I've watched enthralling films in my own home. I remember watching No Country For Old Men on my desktop PC and having to peel my arse off my chair at the end of it.

Spending the morning owning graduate quantity surveyors who think they know construction law.

Never have I felt more like referring to someone as "boy" before.

Since my parents retired they've started going to be cinema mid-week in the morning. The place is empty. Maybes that's the secret.

 

[Raven]

Yeah, its OK during the day, you don't have to put up with the plebs laughing at unfunny bits, rustling crisp packets, talking, playing on phones, needing a piss every 10 minutes etc.

Looks a bit weird from the back, but otherwise much want. That's a futuristic interior I could actually cope with (i.e not just a giant iPad stuck to the dash).

Givf M8 now.

That's it now..just stop it.
This Tattoo frenzy has just got fucking stupid now, every guy working in the Toolsation, all five of them, from 45ish down to 20ish, had a full sleeve, same arm.
Ii's an epidemic, a form of behavioural hysteria, every fucknut going , just has to write or draw some stupid shit on themselves..for ever.
Entirely based on..that's what everyone else is doing.
I know we are herd animals, but for fucksake, do you have to advertise to everyone that you have no independent thought to the world , till the day you die.

I like it, but its quite derivative; looks like a Lexus LC 500 fucked an Aston Martin. Interior is OK, but only in a "not as awful as all the other BMWs" way. BMW are really struggling to integrate screens into their interiors, although to be fair none of the Germans are doing it well at the moment; the whole stick on iPad thing needs to die in a fire.

 

[Job]

I think the exact wording of the questions would be helpful.
Unnatural posdibly not meaning wrong.

It's been 50 years since we decriminalised homosexuality and a worrying number of Brits think being gay is unnatural

 

[Tom]

The BMW is nice, but lets be realistic. The average owner won't look like that and he won't be racing on deserted roads. He'll look like this:



And he'll be driving it in this:

Oh my!

Mercedes and Audi take note.

The new Polo has a nice minimal virtual cockpit and infotainment, not bad at all for a small 'affordable' car (ignore the terrible colours insert):

I actually had a nose around a Velar this lunchtime; there's a dealer near me that's just got a demonstrator in.Its a really, really desirable car, and I'm not really into SUVs. Absurd money in Ireland though.

I actually like the orange in that Polo, I don't mind bits of colour in cars. I looks like VW and Audi work in cycles; Audi gets first crack at the virtual cockpit tech but the integration is like v 1.0, then VW gets the same tech and integrates it a bit better, then back to Audi to go again. It looks like the next gen Audis will follow the Range Rover route and split the screens into 3. This is the Q8 that's coming out next year;

I did order a new S3 and had to spec up the virtual dash, but i wasn't really happy with it as the interior just didn't do it for me. I cancelled it and i'm now waiting for a new Golf R 7.5. I have a provisional delivery date for the start of October, but the thing was that everything i had to spec on the S3 was standard on the R, including the virtual dash

Don't show it off roading, that's just pointless.
You could sell the Rangy cheaper in 2WD and everyone would buy it

 

[Bodhi]

Must admit I'd rather have a Heads Up Display rather than any of this virtual cockpit nonsense. They still aren't entirely great for quickly getting info from, yet a decent HUD has it all there in front of you.

Looks like it's now available on the M140i, so next car decision has been mostly made.

Is that the mainline into Euston?

Dislike was pointed at the insanity of having a train go over those 'tracks', not the post itself

Played in a golf comp at Conwy on Sunday, we were sitting having breakfast when a bunch of Scousers walked in, including one J Barton formerly of Burnley FC.

Turns out not only is he better than most of us at football, but he's really handy at golf as well, finishing 7th out of 90 odd people playing in it. Twat.

Not unusual, eye / ball coordination normally very good. Ice Hockey players are the same, very talented golfers in the off-season. On the subject of Joey Barton, let's enjoy this again .

[Bodhi]

Aye, he was 3 matches behind us, so we watched him play 18 whilst we were having a beer. He had the same 40 foot putt on the last I did, mine went 5 foot past, his about 5 inches

Still holed mine though, and my drive was about 40 yards past his (with a 2 iron)!

Was quite funny though, he was obviously paying more attention to what was going on at Birkdale, as we kept hearing "Ey Ey Spieth's just had another birdie!". I'm guessing he had money on it or something.

Wish I'd remember that interview now, could have asked where his accent went!

 

[Job]

He grew up in THE roughest part of Liverpool, Rooneys upbringing was middle class by comparison.
They're basically domesticated pikeys.

 

[Raven]

My mum is better at football than Barton.
