Carragher is awful as a commentator- I like when him and Neville do their analysis in the studios but Carragher should stay out of the commentary box.
I like Neville as a pundit and commentator but I cannot find anything to like about a Carragher commentary and not sure his tactical knowledge in a studio is up to the a level of Neville to do the pundit role. I wonder who would be a better pundit. Who would be your choice

I never assume I'll learn or do anything on a first day, so just take it easy
Good luck

That's how I'm looking at it to.. Dose up, turn up and just take on the essentials

Why is it that - to my palate - KP Salted Nuts out of a tub do not taste the same - nowhere near as good - as those out of a packet...

It's time The Boy had a passport - should have done it a while back but didn't get round to it and he didn't feel the need for one.
Fullerton the forms online, sent off the paperwork and pictures etc and then we get an email to say he has to come to the passport office for an "interview"...
Nearest one is right next to Victoria station in London..
He's not good with large numbers of people and was anxious about going alone so I went with him. Now I hate London with a passion, not being good with too many people around either.
Now I know this is probably all usual and expected but when we got to the passport office we had to empty pockets into a tray to go through the scanner.
Not only that, they wanted belts on there too
Not only that but the wanted my fleece because it had a zip on it.
But they didn't want my jeans.....thought they had zips too.....
Anyway, was a bit taken aback by that but we made it through security.
Booked in and waited all of 3 mi utes before he went in.
12 minutes later and he's out and we're on our way home.
All told, the whole trip took 5 1/4 hours for a 12 minute interview......a grand day out!
Still, all done and dusted but more than mildly irritated that we had to do it in the first place.

Wow Ian, I am gobsmacked. Do all 1st timers now have to go for an interview or only the selected few
walking the dogs at Lunchtime, cut though the overflow car park for Torvean.... and some dirty scumbag has had a sheer hite right in the middle of the car park, toilet paper and all... there are some real scum about, toilets are over the road and anyone can us them. Luckily Rupert was on the lead, but almost took my arm of trying to get to it

I think it must be all first timers...he's not been in trouble, neither have we, he was born here, so was his mum. Admittedly, I was born in Hong Kong but I've got a British passport and all grandparents are as English as they come....so there's no reason to pull him in if they're not pulling them all in.
Would have been nicer to have been able to do it more locally

And it's bloody irritating
Just checked the official blurb....
It says "once you have applied, you may be called for an interview"
So it may be a random thing or maybe they've realised I'm a subversive....

Worried that you seemed to want to get your trousers off.

Oh, believe me Rich - didn't want to and that was never going to happen. Bad enough having to taken your belt off....Worried that you seemed to want to get your trousers off.

Just think of the kerfuffle if they had seen the mankini you were wearing underneath
Lucky escape there Bud

That would have caused comments of a raucous nature...
