King Charles was at the end of my garden. i was in the front room. i had no idea. i did think it was odd when a load of police motorcycle outriders swung past, followed by a big black car, followed by more police motorcycles. didnt piece it together until it was all over the local news that evening
Every World Cup &some euros me & mate go to Challaborough for 1st week of the tournament. Just watch loads of football & sit up all night getting leathered. Started in 1998. His family had a house on the beach so was always free. Now they’ve sold it renting is expensive, but worth it.
read reviews of Brown live. one said "has achieved a whole new level of tonal flatness". another said "sounds like a strangled cat in a bucket".
Bottom row. F2. Sour cream and salsa pork rinds
Definitely try not to watch this week’s Panorama about Trump & Musk & Thiel & all the other tech tossers. It will ruin your day. Truly frightening
Remember trying to wind up some younger cooler types by saying “yeah that is fat, with a P H”. One of them replied with shut up bellend
Should I even ask what drip means???
I also loathe sneering journalists using the term porn star in news reports. I find it so unnecessarily derogatory. Its such a loaded term, full of condemnation for people just making a living, doing something most people are happy to consume. They could easily use adult actor/actress or performer.
At the Olympics, when commentators use the word medal as a verb or medalled as a past participle. Drives me absolutely fookin crackers.
The MD list of Alternative National Treasures: Samir Zitouni. 🙏
looks like the old Swilly bonfires. council used to bring diggers to make them smaller. local story was that each year before it was lit the council would turn up and remove all the old motorbikes from around the base
some proper laugh out loud moments too. Said to a mate on Monday, this is the best thing I’ve watched this year (I keep a list of all the films & series I watch so could check. He called me a poindexter)
the whole series 3 is masterful television. i often wonder when new series come along if they can keep up the quality. this series really does. we managed to get to the end avoiding any spoilers, and would recommend that approach if possible
🤣
Think it was 99p. From Arcadia in the old drakes circus in Plymouth
🤣
thats not a dig or a moan or anything. if i knew a way to flag it to them as a group i would, as it was something i always enjoyed, and think they all did too. i was proper chuffed when you started it up again #Challenge52
@stymistress.bsky.social i love the weekly Q&A on #Challenge52 & am gutted on the weeks the take up is low. i dont have any idea how the algorithm works but it never shows it to me, even though i try to contribute something each time. i wonder how many of the old gang have no idea its going on.
bloke at work bought a set of military fitness training dvds. the insanity workout. months later he described buying them as insanity. passed to a charity shop. unopened #Challenge52
There’s an exercise bike out in the storage area. Along with a treadmill. Neither of these things are mine
My rake gets used once a year, but is ace. She has all sorts of kitchen contraptions in a cupboard. Soup maker, milk frother, coffee machines, kenwood chef thing. She’s on about a bread maker. I just point to all the others. Also have a cat fountain & automated feeders. Cats scared of both so no use
I’m now tempted to watch the whole chrimbus special
Every so often I stumble upon something that makes me cry laughing. youtu.be/cS8iZplfhmc?...
It’s like what I’d expect an 8 year old to draw if you said draw me a tall building
That’s exactly what it is. There’s two or three other halls around the city centre, all equally ghastly
I didn’t know that. It could quite easily have come third of fourth, just in Plymouth
You could never describe Plymouth as a beautiful city. Too much of it razed to the ground during the blitz. City rebuilt quickly after the war, so lots of grey, concrete, 3 or 4 storey boxes make up massive proportion of city centre. But this. Jesus man, this. Many more similar as well.
