However, the James Naughtie report from Glasgow on The World At One was pish.
Sir Les’s? It really is the way he tells them...
Absolute Beginners (1959) by Colin MacInnes.
Would it be so bad? As a MUFC supporter, at one point last season I was quite looking forward to going down. Visits to different places, lack of half & half scarvers, easier to get tickets to home matches...
But what about non-English breeds? I vote Standard Schnauzer, which is obviously traitorous and Britain hating of me. Even a Labrador is questionable...
Game slightly given away by one guy slagging the SNP. ‘So you don’t support independence?’ ‘No, I’m British.’ Hmmnnn…
James Naughtie on #TWAO on #R4 vox popping a bunch of older blokes in a pub in Glasgow, all saying they’re going to vote Reform. ‘Between talking about football…’ says Jim, but neglecting to say which team they support. Which might be quite a useful indicator of their political views generally…
Still had his bejewelled gasper holder clamped between his gnashers, I’ll be bound.
It’s a little (John) Deere, isn’t it?
I love a proper brolly, especially the cane handled ones. Unfortunately they are allergic to me, and any I buy disappear within weeks.
Football went to shit when it became the norm for goalkeepers to wear short sleeved shirts.
A few years ago I started ‘recollecting’ the Crass singles I had when I was a kid. Man, they’re expensive! Especially for things that were sold for 99p when they were released.
The clubs should just leave X, it's beyond fixing.
Si Lloyd @smnllyd5.bsky.social Liverpool fans, I'd expect, will boycott the platform en masse at that and rightly so. I hope other football fans follow. It needs Killing off. ... Si Lloyd @smnllyd5.bsky.social • 4h Grok has also done a United one, in which it refers to United fans as 'eternal crash victims' I've seen some justify staying on X in recent weeks because of the football community on there. This has to be the reason to leave. It's vile. ①1 • 17 刀 … Jim Burke @barcajim3.bsky.social • 4h The club can start it off by coming off the platform.
Agree with all this. All football fans should jack In that hate site pronto
I love the fellow on the left enjoying a gasper. The look on his face!

Currently in the city centre, at the head and f the floating harbour. It’s quite peripatetic, for a statue…
When Brexit was slammed for being an act of pure prejudice, all the Brexiters howled about ‘sovereignty’ and ‘taking back control’.
Now, the very same people howl that we should just obey Trump and put our country in the firing line.
They lied about everything. All of it. Every single part.
Boris Johnson says Keir Starmer has made us an irrelevance on the world stage...
The president wore a red tie and a baseball cap to a ceremony in honor of fallen soldiers.
If it happens, do what we did. In the freezer, defrost over Sunday night, return it to the school early and ‘sleeping’.
Am reading it for the first time. Was discussing it on here, and this comment appeared. Still can’t bring myself to disagree
Just turned on #totp to see Skin from Skunk Anansoe say ‘frigging’. Immediately put my foot through the telly. Who do I send the bill to?

I was the producer of the R1 Top 40 then - the studio that day was slightly mad. Tabloids hacks ringing up trying to find out which was at number one.
Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...
@jameshyman.bsky.social - this is really good. Have you still got all my Source/Vibe mags?
this might be the first ever t20 where the team batting first gets to declare #thecricket
No sportswashing. No Trump World Cup.
GB News loses £22m, taking their total losses to over £130m. Except it's not a 'loss', it's an investment by Paul Marshall in providing a propaganda service to platform right wing grifters, gobshites, conspiracy nutters and contrarian fuckwits.
