The drama continues...Oystons claim no one is interested in buying the club hence why they won't sell, newspapers then report anonymous bid was made to buy the club and ground for £10mill last Wednesday. Looks like more lies from our owners. When will they take their money and go?!

Football wise, I think have signed some crap goalkeeper from Oxford United.

What level you at? You'll start to get higher CP's come up soon, I had a 240CP Pidgey yesterday! Got a Magmar from a 10km egg yesterday and a nice Dratini down near the water here. Also had a Kabuto appear in my living room which was sweet, haven't seen too many of those yet!

Levelled to 9 this lunchtime lol. Considering I play about 45 mins per day I don't think I'm doing too badly. Might get a bit more in at the weekend!

Nice find on the Kabuto, definitely not seen any of those or anyone with one of those!

Bit cooler here today, thankfully, as my 2yr old is not coping well in the heat (nor are her parents!). Think there's meant to be another storm tomorrow and then it gets warmer towards the end of the weekend

I do miss my North-West rain every day!

Sorry, @Vercoe, didn't see your post earlier! 2yr olds tend to be happy with most things so long as they can run around and explore!

Also in Suffolk, Ipswich to be more precise. Whereabouts are you? The storm blew over us and barely even rained! Was hoping for more to cool us down!

Heh, managed to get a pokemon in a gym for the first time today. My work colleagues beat it down and then I jumped in on their tailcoats to hold a gym. We lasted an hour before we were taken out!

I don't understand how people can have Pidgeot with 900 CP and mine has barely 300

Some of the Pokemon Go stories i've been reading are hilarious, mainly about egg hatching. One guy thought running 10km on a treadmill would help while another used the microwave to try and speed up the hatching

Thankfully though, those stupid people haven't hurt anyone (except maybe themselves). Keep reading about stupid people playing it whilst driving! Think the latest one I read was someone playing whilst driving and crashing into a police car in Baltimore *double facepalm*

I can't figure out this whole CP and arch and evolution thing, I know what they are all by themselves but people seem to disagree about aspects of it. Some say evolve before powering up, others say power up fully then evolve?!

Not that it matters as it's too damned hot here in Ipswich. I'm not a fan of the sun once it heats up the area above 24 degrees!

Downloaded Pokemon Go but I have a problem already. All of the starter Pokemon are located in my neighbours gardens

Just walk away repeatedly then and get a Pikachu!

Went for a walk around our local lake at lunch with some work colleagues and leeched 3 lures

Still a lowly level 7, but caught a Dratini (I understand that's an uncommon one?)

Hmm, bizarre. The only people who seem to get regular phone and data signal at my work place are those on 3 (or iD - same network). One of our old IT managers changed all the work mobiles from Vodafone to EE to save money, and EE are awful for signal so now on a work mobile if you're in the main building you can only get signal in the reception waiting area and at the top of the warehouse stairs! I was only getting signal on o2 intermittently anywhere in the village and they were getting more expensive.

So, today I took the plunge and joined 3. In my house I have 2 bars max phone signal it seems, but I have a landline and wifi so not bothered about that really. The real test will come at work on Monday! Opted for unlimited data too

£11 a month for the first 6 months, doesn't seem bad to me.

Blackpool are interested in signing Danny Pugh.

PLEASE. DO IT NOWWWWWWW.

Only if he makes good packed lunches and can clean his own kit. If so, then it's the best place in the world for him on dole equivalent pay.

I don't get any 3 signal in the house, and lose it in places. But would still reccomend it over any of the others.

Given what you've said, how come you'd still recommend it?!

Aye, they offer the first 6 months for half price too at the moment so that is swaying me. They seem to have best coverage in the area where I work which is most helpful. o2 are a bit hit and miss, as is vodafone and EE are awful!

Just waiting on an unlock code from a website...refuse to pay o2 £15 and wait 28days!

I'm fed up with my network supplier, o2, and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations as to what network is best in the UK? Thinking of switching to 3 as my friends who are on it seem to have the best reception (phone and data) and seems well priced.

Currently trying to unlock my phone too, which seems an almighty pain and pricey for what it is!

A few people at work play it, I'm giving in to peer pressure and downloading it tonight!

I would say good luck, but it shouldn't be too difficult

Nevertheless, it is always interesting to see who people buy when they have such resources to hand and how they go about it!

Surprised no Bale, and the inclusion of Pepe seems at odds too. Don't think he had a great tournament, but on the winning team so guess that helps! Probably would have had Bonucci instead, or a couple of others.

Finished the final season of Banshee, really enjoyed it overall. I wouldn't say the story line, acting or budget was anything brilliant on their own - but it's a show that worked and was thoroughly enjoyable to watch.

Tried starting Colony but couldn't get past the first episode really.

Waiting for the latest seasons of Sillicon Valley and Penny Dreadful to finish so I can binge them!

I see, and yes they are indeed......

http://www.efl.com/news/article/2016/premier-league-trial-for-the-trophy-3140598.aspx

Premier League clubs allowed into the Football League Trophy. I despair. Absolutely disgraceful.

#BoycottEFLtrophy

Reports in that big EPL academies have rejected the offer to join the EFL Trophy. Makes sense for them to reject it imo and hopefully the FA will now realise their folly in trying to implement this.
