Is there any way of automatically directing any thread Globus starts to the "Things that don't deserve their own thread", thread?

Thread.

Don't think so OS. Not according to the Daily Telegraph.Taliban.
Hope you are well. I'm struggling with a bad back so golf is sadly out of the question.

I'm due to go on a quiz show. I'm fond of them, the best being " The Chase" with Bradley Walsh.

Maybe more to follow. Been on University Challenge many years ago.

I've no evidence. My paperwork went in a divorce. It was a while back. But if you think I'm a liar it's of no importance on here.

Interesting divorce settlement where the former Mrs Globus takes all your papers from university with her.

No no, Globby. I’ll be happy with these newspaper clippings. That’s all I need to remember this by.

I'd love to be able to do that but the former Mrs G had a big bonfire. She burnt a lot of my clothes, along with a ton of paper.

Anyway it's of no importance.

It's no big deal.

In other news Ted Dexter has died.

I played with him in a pro-am at the Gogs in Cambridge.

I hit a laid up shot, short of two bunkers. He hit an absolute massive drive and got to just behind the green.

A true gentleman. RIP.

Just as a bit of history. His family played in a match against us. He's a relative.
