Funnily enough, I'm thinking about doing an evening or weekend course on plastering, considering the amount they charge nowadays. If it's something I can learn to do myself, would be saving around £10k for completing a house.

I was going to come in and comment something very similar. Will shower before work, but by the time I get in, I'll be a sweaty mess, which is then compounded by anxiety (which prolongs the sweating), which makes me smell straightaway.

England's lost, how do you feel?
Posted by mullebob@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 2920 comments

It is mainly the manager.
The players in the squad are good enough to be winning trophies. But when you have someone who has close to 0 element of risk in his make-up, it's going to be very difficult to do so. He's the epitome of an inoffensive "yes-man", who's just so happened to have an insane amount of luck in his time as boss. Other than not having the confidence to play possession-based, attacking football, he also doesn't have the guts to drop players for the betterment of the team (e.g. Harry Kane has been terrible all tournament, trying to shoehorn Foden, Bellingham, Saka and playing them in unusual positions, the defence).
So, wasn't really surprising that they lost today tbh.
