Swiwi, we have a one-language policy on the forum. Can you repost that in English please? Thanks!

Anyone know can you get Sky Sports for a month? When I log in I'm only seeing a cut price offer for 6 months and full price thereafter...

Yeah a month is no bother. Ring sky and they'll turn it on for you. I've done it a few times in the past.

And my other half isn't even Kiwi. It was like "no can bake Pavlova, no ring". And it worked!

I don't really like kiwifruit on pavlovas

What are the breakfast plans then?

Being the provider of Sky sports I am having breakfast provided by the interlopers. I'm having a bottle of lucozade, because thats what I have always drank while watching the Lions since I was a kid. My dad would get me a lucozade and it'd keep me happy for the match. So there's a bit of a nostalgia connection there. For some people the Lions is no longer about tradition but for me, and the wonderful people at Lucozade, these are still the things that count. So why don't you do the same?

Lucozade.

Ive been abandoned for the weekend (woo) so rasher sambos and a coffee, and myself and the dog on the couch, looking forward to it now.
