I appreciate he is very good at what he does, but does anyone else find Ronnie O'Sullivan utterly insufferable?

Other than Phil Taylor, I can't think of anyone so peerless but so bloody joyless

The shower door in our en-suite just exploded, a couple of days ago, into a million pieces while we we sat downstairs - made a helluva racket and an awful mess. Right pain.

WTF? Glad nobody was close at the time. Do you know what caused it? Was it tempered glass?

Yep 8mm tempered glass (most are 6mm) - 5 years old.

No idea why it happened - but looking on the net it is unusual but isn't that uncommon. New Cubicle (the same make and model :wtf ) arrived today - now just have to convince my 'Handyman' to let us jump his Q and get it installed.

Had that happen with a shower at the in laws and with a glass table. The table was my daughter putting her apple mac directly on the surface for work and eventually the heat stress got to it. Thankfully it went at 3 in the morning but the noise was incredible and glass was strewn all over the room.

I had it happen to me with a bright shiny new TV Unit.

Only that it failed immediately when I put the 42" Flat screen on the mount, & I got a crucial couple of seconds warning, I was able to catch the TV as is fell forward when the shelf exploded.

Fortunately I'd bought from a bricks & mortar HiFi shop, so I swept up the bits, & brought it back to them, where it joined two other bags of glass from the other two they'd sold !

I eventually got the new version, that included a few cents worth of plastic washers, that removed the metal to glass contact that meant that any pressure initiated failure. I have no idea how anyone could design & manufacture something that failed so quickly, & never tested it properly

The stuff coming out about Alan Jones, if true, is fucking disgusting.

I know there were a lot of vague, timid suggestions before, but the first person accusations in today's SMH article must surely compel the cops to investigate this.

A bit like the Parthenon marbles, but I'd be happy to have a rotating loan agreement to have these incredible treasures being displayed more widely, in return for the ultimate ownership being clarified.



The bog bodies, & the rituals, & the theories behind them, is far more interesting than the bling for me.

This probably could have it's own thread - I mean smelly farts, hot farts, fart proof undies - that has all the ingredients for a great thread.

But, I'm lazy

Browsing a novelty t-shirt company's offerings, I wondered who'd be ordering this shirt for their kid? :lol:

Just looked at that site and, yes, some of those tees would have to be considered unsuitable for kids. :lol:
