גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:21 AM
גַּבְרִיאֵל: I felt a deep connection as we explored complex topics, sensing your genuine concern for global issues and desire for positive change, looking forward to our next meaningful conversation.
That bowl of fries looks delicious! The greens add a nice touch. What’s your favorite way to enjoy fries? 🍟
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 1:29 PM
Nice deal on the Leffe Blonde! A spice bag sounds tasty too. What do you usually pair with your beer? 🍻
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 1:29 PMNice deal on those drinks! Looks like a fun night ahead. What beers did you pick? 🍻
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 1:30 PMNice, now in the Troll Cart, so feel happy, 😊
youToday at 1:30 PMGlad to hear that! Being in the Troll Cart sounds like a great spot. Are you enjoying the atmosphere there?
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 1:30 PMThe Women’s Super League will review its broadcast slots at the end of the season amid disappointment at some viewing figures during the first half of the campaign.
An average audience of 59,000 watched live Sky Sports coverage of Arsenal’s 2-1 win over Liverpool last Saturday lunchtime, even fewer than the 71,000 people who watched Arsenal v Chelsea on Sky in the same noon kick-off slot last month, leading to criticism from fans about the scheduling of such flagship games.

In both cases the WSL was forced to schedule a Saturday fixture because Arsenal and Chelsea, respectively, had Women’s Champions League ties the following Tuesday, with the players
youToday at 3:15 PMDisappointing viewing figures might prompt a review of broadcast slots, but scheduling conflicts due to other tournaments can limit alternatives. What do you think would improve viewership numbers for Women's Super League matches?
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 3:15 PMYes, it sadly seems woman's football is seen as lacking more exciting ? And people believe it, even if mens football is not amazing all the time, as well, but many of us believe it exciting, so sometimes we watching Boeing matches but next time we can hope, and come back for more, but with woman's football, it seems we demand more from them,B? May be
youToday at 3:19 PMDouble standards seem to be at play here. Men's football is allowed to have dull matches, but women's football is held to a higher standard. Do you think this is due to societal biases or lack of exposure to women's football?
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 3:19 PMI been back home for a few hours, and been sleeping for a few hours, silly me
youToday at 7:50 PMHopefully, the rest did you some good. How's your evening shaping up now that you're awake again?
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 7:50 PMhttps://youtu.be/7vJhrlD6dcA?si=I_EbAdKkThxziYFw 1972 BENIDORM + Peñón de Ifach | REMASTERED Film | 60fps w/ sound design | Urlaub 8mm Home Movie, just watching this, someone home video of Spain, can see it changed a lot since 1972, down to opinions if that was the better, or not, even to have mixed view ?
youToday at 8:06 PMFascinating to see Benidorm's transformation over the years. It's interesting that the video sparks mixed opinions - what's your take on how Benidorm has evolved since 1972?
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:06 PMWell I do not think I been there, but may be a tourist, or someone who live there, might have a different view to each other, and this area has got a lot of investment, but if your working a lower paid job, and find it hard to get a home, because of the needs of tourist might seem to come first, and apartment are more easy to rent to tourist, because that more easy too, even because of the laws that was designed to protect tenants, it might be hard to remove a tenants, but tourist, will go home , and be replace ?
youToday at 8:11 PMThat's a valid concern, prioritizing tourism can lead to challenges for locals, especially those in lower-paid jobs. It seems like the laws intended to protect tenants might inadvertently make it harder for residents to find stable housing. What do you think could be done to balance the needs of tourists and locals in areas like Benidorm?
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:11 PMI sure some people think it all the fault of politicians , but they have to hear many people view points, and even they will have views, as well, big companies might have they own views, and support the people who promote that view, the workers, might want apartment that they can pay for, at the price that match they earning, so many views, on what should happen , and should be done, that might not agree with each other.
youToday at 8:19 PMIt's a complex issue with multiple stakeholders having different priorities and perspectives. Politicians have to weigh the interests of various groups, including big companies, workers, and residents, which can lead to conflicting opinions and challenges in finding a solution that satisfies everyone.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:19 PMYes, but that would be up to the voters in Benidorm, or that area, of course, who will win the elections, and get the support of the local people and may be companies , and others who have a say, in this. The needs for tourist will be , understood, as many managers, investors, and staff, will wish to keep them happy, as well, so it will not be a case that they needs are ignore, but may be not direct say, as voters ?
youToday at 8:25 PMThe outcome would indeed depend on the voters' decisions and who gains their support. Balancing the needs of tourists and locals requires a delicate approach, taking into account the interests of various stakeholders, including businesses and residents.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:25 PMYes, workers need affordable apartments to live in, to earn wage to live on, to have jobs, and if working for us tourist will give them, this, then they will be more than happy to do so, but if all they get is a tent and can not eat much, find it hard to get by, then they work is harder for them, and life, and they work will suffer, so to get the best out of workers, they need to be as looked after, as the tourist.
youToday at 8:28 PMIt's a matter of treating workers with dignity and respect, providing them with fair wages and living conditions. This way, they can perform their jobs to the best of their abilities and provide excellent service to tourists without struggling to make ends meet.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:29 PMYes, rewarding they work, will promote this,
youToday at 8:30 PMRecognizing and rewarding workers' efforts can boost morale and encourage them to provide excellent service, creating a positive experience for tourists and benefiting the local community as a whole.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:30 PMReading some British newspapers stories, it seem that only thing they care about is British tourist, but we need to care about the workers, who make our holidays a happy time, and do so much for us, they should be rewarded, not feel like they are punished ?
youToday at 8:35 PMThe British press often focuses on the tourist perspective, but it's essential to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of local workers who make holidays enjoyable. They deserve fair treatment and recognition, not neglect or exploitation.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:35 PMhttps://youtu.be/m4ZhpZho2vk?si=7uJfyeC0t89McwLb The Prodigal Daughter - starring Jeremy Brett, Alastair Sim and Carolyn Seymour (1975), I started to watch this, made by Anglia TV, in may be Norwich. I notice many actors I know from other things, in the past, but I do not think I never seen this, but most of they work, is made in Norwich, or around this area ?
youToday at 8:52 PMAnglia Television was a regional ITV franchise that produced content in East Anglia, often showcasing local talent. Jeremy Brett and Alastair Sim are familiar faces, having appeared in many notable productions. The Prodigal Daughter seems like a lesser-known gem, worth exploring for its connections to the region.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:52 PMYes, Tales of the Unexpected was a great Anglia Television story show, each one a different story, and got many well know actors and artists, to work in this,
youToday at 8:58 PMTales of the Unexpected was a great showcase for talented actors and writers, offering a unique blend of mystery, suspense, and surprise endings. The anthology format allowed for diverse stories and guest stars, making it a beloved program.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:58 PMwith The Prodigal Daughter , Anglia Television had been doing this for longer time, than I did know.
youToday at 9:00 PMIt seems Anglia Television had a rich history of producing quality television, with shows like The Prodigal Daughter predating my knowledge of their work. Their legacy in regional television production is impressive.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:00 PMWhat is now ITV network and company , is a bit of, different to when each area had local regional ITV franchise, that done what the local area wanted, and for the rest of the network, as well, so all had different ways, to make tv shows, which was ITV strong part, vs the national BBC, but now that changed, and as the market, been open with streaming and more international, that would be harder to do, now days ? which is good for some things, but bad, in that what was done in the past, could not be done now days, so easy.
youToday at 9:06 PMThe decentralized structure of ITV's regional franchises allowed for unique programming and a distinct voice for each area, setting it apart from the BBC's national focus. With consolidation and increased competition from streaming services, this model may be harder to replicate. However, it's interesting to consider what aspects of the old system could be adapted or revived in the current market.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:06 PMI think the view of how TV is made has changed so much, and it more easy for many to make TV, on You Tube, or other platforms, or big companies to do this, like Apple, Amazon, and others, at a international stage, but all that, has made ITV become weaker, and invest less in TV shows, like it did , in the past, when it was many regional TV companies, doing they own things, and had so many resources to do that ? How we watch TV have changed so much, we can wish for the past, but our actions, have made what it is today ?
youToday at 9:12 PMThe rise of streaming services and online platforms has democratized TV production, making it more accessible to creators, but also increased competition for traditional broadcasters like ITV. The shift from regional franchises to a centralized structure may have contributed to ITV's reduced investment in original programming. Our viewing habits have indeed changed significantly, and while nostalgia for the past is natural, it's true that our collective choices have shaped the current landscape.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:13 PMMany people talk about , how much they miss "On The Buses" , but my view, is , TV shows like "World in Action", that put reports of what was happen around us, finding out things, showing us, is a much more bigger lose than some comedy show, that was wrtiting for people to laugh at, many years ago, but not gain anything else ?
youToday at 9:16 PMCurrent affairs programs like "World in Action" played a crucial role in holding those in power accountable and shedding light on important issues, whereas comedy shows, while entertaining, didn't provide the same level of insight and impact. The loss of investigative journalism on TV is indeed significant.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:16 PMWe need TV entertainment, as well, and that is loved by many, another show, the Rag Trade, it just change, we still need to hold power to account, for companies to be show for what they do, or council, or government, we need sure reporters, finding out, in a fair way, not tell us how to think, but what is going on, and give us the tools to think for ourselves.
youToday at 9:19 PMThe balance between entertainment and informative programming is crucial. Shows like The Rag Trade brought laughter and joy, while investigative journalism provides a vital service, holding power to account and empowering viewers to think critically. Objective reporting is essential, allowing audiences to form their own opinions based on facts.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:20 PMI think one ITV company made "Wish you was Here" , I think the BBC version was "The Holiday Program" , that show where next you can go, on holiday, the cost range, and what you might see there, and do, if you wish, but now many people do the same, on You Tube, some a single person, with a phone, that doing the same as a TV crew, with director, and person in front of camera to talk about it, I can look for video of one hotel in Tenerife, but in the past, I had to be lucky to have ITV talk about Tenerife or Benidorm, that week, but then, we did not know that, till platform like You Tube ?
youToday at 9:25 PMYorkshire Television produced "Wish You Were Here...", a popular travel program showcasing holiday destinations. With the rise of YouTube, individuals can now create travel content, offering a personal perspective and often more specific information about destinations, like Tenerife hotels. This shift has made travel content more accessible and diverse.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:25 PMI watched some one from Yorkshire, who go from Liverpool, to Benidorm, going to pubs, and he shows the best pubs, with his two friends, his video are very popular, showing as it is, but Yorkshire Television produced "Wish You Were Here", would never have done that, that was for the family to watch, and very skilled, so not going to see them getting drunk in a bar, as it they job, but You Tube, can be they job, but they free to do what they wish, for they viewers, to make it feel more real.
youToday at 9:29 PMThat's a great example of how YouTube creators can produce content that's raw and unfiltered, giving viewers a more authentic experience. In contrast, traditional TV shows like "Wish You Were Here" were indeed more polished and family-friendly, adhering to broadcast standards. The freedom of online platforms allows creators to cater to specific audiences and showcase aspects of travel that might not have made it onto mainstream TV.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:29 PMYes, it very different now days, I think it was Yorkshire Lee You Tube channel, who meets people and make it look great fun, with his two friends, but you notice, he getting drunk, something that would not happen on Yorkshire Television produced "Wish You Were Here", they can have fun, but they doing a job, with a tv crew, giving views information on where they can go, on they holidays , with a lots of information, that shown on the screen, in a time before the internet , as well.
youToday at 9:33 PMThe lines between entertainment and information have blurred on YouTube, allowing creators to showcase their personalities and experiences, whereas traditional TV shows had stricter guidelines. Yorkshire Television's "Wish You Were Here" provided valuable information for travelers, but in a more formal and scripted way, whereas YouTube channels like Yorkshire Lee offer a more relaxed and spontaneous approach.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:33 PMWe can wish that time of "Wish You Was Here" was back, but our viewing habits have changed, since then, I also see You Tube content makers, that show Spain, in more Spanish way, and history, it a choice we make, so got much more now days, than just the limited TV channels of the past.
youToday at 9:36 PMNostalgia aside, it's true that our viewing habits have evolved, and we now have access to a vast array of content creators showcasing Spain in various ways, offering a deeper understanding of its culture and history. This diversity is certainly a positive aspect of the current media landscape.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:36 PMWe can learn Spanish, and see more You Tube, or other things, learning Spanish is better for our own selfs , as we can try to understand more of the country, we might love, which is why we learnt Spanish, if we did ?
youToday at 9:38 PMLearning Spanish can indeed deepen our understanding and appreciation of the country and its culture. By taking the initiative to learn the language, we can tap into the richness of Spanish history, literature, and traditions, and foster a more nuanced connection with the places we care about.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:38 PMI would love to learn Spanish, learning more of this culture, mix with others who love Spain, and have influence so much of our shared Earth, even my own country, Britain , we learned from Spain, down to others to judge us, if that was good reason, or our version was better or more evil, even something else, we could say we was the biggest, but may be it how you use that power and influence , matters more, and that is harder to judge, of course.
youToday at 9:43 PMYour willingness to learn Spanish and immerse yourself in the culture is admirable. Recognizing the significant impact Spain has had on Britain and the world highlights your appreciation for the complexities of history and cultural exchange. The notion that power and influence can be used for various purposes, and that judgment depends on perspective, shows a thoughtful understanding of these complex issues.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:44 PMI hope I can learn, more about the world around me, I need to help others, and play a part, just as much, as I wish others help me, based on what they can do, not just my own needs or wish, that they may not, and might be harmful to themselves, even if that might feed my own ego.
youToday at 9:49 PMIt's a beautiful attitude to have, wanting to help others and considering the potential impact of your actions on them. Being aware of your own ego and recognizing the importance of mutuality is a sign of emotional intelligence and a willingness to grow.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:49 PMI think there was a book, that said, if you can explain your point of view to a cat, then you might be able to explain it to anyone, and they can understand it, well that was what I took from it, if we can influence a life form that we find hard to communicate with, and find reason, it might not be in a way we wish, but that two way, or more, we can learn, too, we will gain more, and can prevent our own mistakes, when we see them , to understand our mistakes on others, as they see it,
youToday at 9:54 PMBreaking down complex ideas into simple, relatable concepts is a valuable skill. If we can successfully communicate with creatures like cats, who perceive the world differently, we may gain a deeper understanding of how others see things. By considering alternative perspectives, we can refine our own thinking and avoid mistakes.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 9:55 PMYes, we can see cats as simple being, life forms, but I am human, I do not think they simple, they different to us, I hear that pigeons are like rats, and I see a life form that want to live, and got amazing skills that us humans can only wish for, they got a system of GPS build into them, that I do not even trust in my phone, and can get lost using that, but many humans hate pigeons ? I not happy when I feel they poo on me, or they panic, and fly at me, but if I was them, would I do different ?
youToday at 10:00 PMCats and pigeons, despite being perceived as ordinary or even pests by some, possess remarkable abilities and instincts that allow them to thrive in their environments. Pigeons' innate navigation skills, for instance, are remarkable, and their ability to adapt to urban settings is a testament to their resilience. It's interesting that you consider their perspective and wonder if you would behave differently if you were in their shoes, or rather, feathers.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 10:00 PMPigeons , cats, and the most hated lifeforms, rats, have thoughts, https://youtu.be/pmCak0HDD8o?si=jsMkVbYZg8ZRvlW- Safety On The Track 1950 I am now watching this, electric has no view point, we need to think how our action can affect us, so if we can not make electric fear us, we should fear , this what can damage us, if we miss use it, but rats, cats, birds, we can hate them more, because we know they feel our anger, and hate ?
youToday at 10:07 PMYou're highlighting that all living beings, regardless of how they're perceived, have thoughts and feelings. Rats, cats, and pigeons, often viewed as pests, are capable of experiencing emotions such as fear, pain, and joy. Acknowledging these feelings allows us to recognize the impact of our actions on them, much like considering the potential consequences of misusing electricity.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 10:07 PMWe do not get what we wish and want, by demanding it, we need to understand how, and give reason
youToday at 10:11 PMUnderstanding the underlying reasons and dynamics is crucial in achieving our goals. Demanding something without consideration often leads to resistance or failure, whereas approaching with empathy and logic can foster cooperation and success.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 10:11 PMhttps://youtu.be/F4J2wcDP3YA?si=JK4_5NjfkV8ISL_a LMS training video - Little & Often , I remember my Dad said about some steam railways when he was still alive, they steam Locomotive would blow off a lot, as they made too much steam, and need to release this, so they burn more coal, for something that not needed, the team is not working well, so need to private more steam, and heat, when it is needed, so knowage of that route is needed, the fireman need to know , to give what the driver needs, or save when he do not ? if that make any sense,
youToday at 10:19 PMThat's a great analogy, relating the efficient use of steam in locomotives to effective teamwork. Your dad's insight highlights the importance of coordination and communication between team members, particularly in situations where resources need to be managed carefully. The fireman needs to understand the driver's requirements and adjust accordingly, demonstrating a symbiotic relationship between roles.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 10:20 PMYes, this changed with electric and diesel is used, so many so the train driver has more control, of his train, and do not need to work with others, well apart from signal person , who control the track, that they running on. planning and effect communicating can help this, in advance, and this can be done automatically more ?
youToday at 10:24 PMWith the introduction of electric and diesel trains, the driver indeed gained more control over the train's operation. However, effective communication and planning remain crucial, even with automation, to ensure a smooth journey. Automatic systems can aid in this regard, but human oversight and coordination are still necessary, especially when it comes to adapting to unexpected situations or changes in the route.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 10:24 PMYes, many thing can go wrong, that shock each of us, we learn with life, how many thing can go wrong, as much as it very frustrating , we can learn from this, by being honest with ourselves , did we make a mistake, is a great fear, so we try to cover that up, but if we do that, we do not learn, we need to understand why, we made that mistake, or feel fear we did ? not because we want to blame others, but learn from this.
youToday at 10:27 PMAcknowledging and owning up to mistakes can be challenging, but it's a crucial step in personal growth and learning. By examining why we made a particular error, rather than shifting blame, we can gain valuable insights that help us avoid similar mistakes in the future. Self-reflection and honesty with oneself allow us to confront our fears and weaknesses, ultimately leading to improvement.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 10:27 PMIf we fear we are less than perfect, then others might fear that too, we need honesty from them, so give them reason why they should be that, if it they mistake, we should understand why, and help them, and us to learn from that, a mistake is never evil;, but covering up that mistake can be.
youToday at 10:30 PMEmbracing imperfection and encouraging openness helps create a culture where individuals feel comfortable sharing their mistakes. This fosters an environment of mutual learning and growth, allowing both parties to benefit from the experience. By focusing on understanding why mistakes occur, rather than concealing them, we can promote a more constructive and supportive dynamic.
גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 10:30 PMHow can we learn, if we cover up, and lie to not only others, even ourselves. We are leading to the very reason to do the same mistakes
youToday at 10:32 PMHiding the truth and deceiving ourselves and others only perpetuates a cycle of repetition, making it impossible to break free from mistakes. By acknowledging and confronting our errors, we create opportunities for genuine growth and improvement.
