    Blackpool v Millwall

    We could yet finish 12th, even if we draw 1. If we win both, we are secure. "It's in our own hands", as they say.

    Things that annoy you

    That doesn't look any more like Down's syndrome than regular Barbie. And it annoys me that the Yanks have started referring to it as "Down Syndrome". It fucking isn't!!

    Inappropriate jokes from your youth

    I heard this story from a work colleague just a couple of weeks ago. I think i had stopped watching Blue Peter (and left school) by then - probably because Sarah Greene wasn't on it anymore!

    Things that annoy you

    Just started catching up on "Saving Lives in Leeds" (new on the missus' radar), and it is particularly bad for this. Also, the endless reiteration by the patronising and dreary narrator of what the surgical process is meant to correct, or how important it is not to slice through the nerve/blood...

    That was a truly amazing free kick. Wilson's stop was world class

    Moving House

    Won't fall under general permitted development (not requiring planning permission) - only applies to REAR extensions. We had to get planning permission for a smallish extension at the rear because the original permission on the house carried a condition which prevented use of general permitted...

    Things that annoy you

    I've recently invested in a contract mobile as my employer has withdrawn our ability use our work iPhone for any personal use whatsoever (which is fair enough, i guess). So i have got an Android for the first time, and i'm not desperately impressed. It's a Galaxy A13, so at the cheaper end of...

    Death List 2023

    Lord Lawson of Blaby, as i recall, and his lovely daughter of the midnight chocolate-from-the fridge-in-a-bathrobe and coke habit (errr ... allegedly)

    F1 2023

    It's pretty poor when the sport's governing body don't even have a set of rules or contingencies for every possible eventuality and have to make it up as they go along. What a fucking shambles! The result should have been the positions at the end of the lap before the last red flag. The last lap...

    Driving round Coventry in the 80’s

    I had an unrestricted Fizzer from age 16 - used to get about 55 out of it (with a fair wind and gradient!!), and certainly dumped on the kids who had brand new mopeds that could only do 30!! My first car aged 17 was a 10-year-old Canley-built Triumph Toledo. Loved it! It listed to starboard a...

    America

    Interesting that the American shooter (today's one) kept their birth name (Audrey Hale) but supposedly identifies as male and has preferred pronouns of he/him - but the Independent article refers to them as she/her throughout! Good job the dead can't sue!

    If you're going to pretend to be a woman, at least make SOME kind of fucking effort!

    Yep - sacked. It wasn't just a random picture of David - it was a fucking Renaissance art class. How can you teach Renaissance art WITHOUT including that? I was going to draw this comparison, Bodicote. Lunacy!
