Who the fuck flies kites in this day and age? I take it people who haven't discovered drones yet
Whoa it’s actually good fun especially the big ones. Requires bit of skill and bit of a workout too. Honestly power kiting is a laugh esp if you have a board or something too.

Yeah my mate told me kite fighting is fairly popular in Pakistan.

Completely off topic but would recommend the book the kite runner. Fantastic story.

EDIT: appears others have already recommended/agreed ?

football.london understands that Spurs have been tracking Lyon's Brazil international Lucas Paqueta, a player Newcastle tried to sign earlier this year. The versatile 24-year-old can play in an attacking midfield role, centrally or on the right and can also play up front when required. He netted 11 goals and laid on seven assists in a Lyon side that struggled at times last season.
If we sign this lad, can we all agree he should just be called Crisps?

Aaaaaah :X3:..... that makes sense.

Here in South Africa there's a word Nogal which tends to be used at the end of a sentence.... it's almost slang.... and I kept thinking how has this word come into SC speak. :LOL:
What does Nogal mean

What does Nogal mean
"What is more/ moreover" to put it in context... i got it at a real bargain "nogal"...... it's an Afrikaans word. But used in English sentences here in SA.

Pronounced ..... nore ggg U LLL.... sorry that's the best I can do... maybe a true Afrikaans speaker would do it better.....maybe MarcoLombard will pull into this thread.

It's weird because the only person to link us to him I'd Alli right? No one else has mentioned him.

Feels like this could be an out of the blue signing dependant upon other deals.

Interesting that Ally mentioned we are looking at Paqueta in today's video of all things spurs. With Eriksen probably off and Raphinha unlikely to come with Richarlison, i wonder if he is the one we could go for as a flair and also versatile player, who could cover for AM and RW, even so with the talk of Fab keeping things under wraps and the money being moved. I am brazilian and really like the look of him, he is thriving and flourishing in the national team for the last year or so, brilliant player with a brilliant future.
