Just watched #NightAgent2. Not sure it was a good idea to let a 12 year old write the script.

Well, my cup runneth over. #6NATIONS

So far, this lumox of a commentator has referred to England playing in black shirts and their 2nd try as being a bonus point try. #ITAvENG

These mid-match adverts really enhancing the viewing experience. #ITAvENG

Can't believe I'm going to be shouting for England next week.

Not sure "I need a miracle" was the ideal choice for half time music.

I'm a bit nervous now.

Yeah, but apart from that?

Allez les Bleus (Γ‰cossais). #6Nations

Because religion is a refuge for the feeble minded.

My poor wife has to listen to me ranting about this nonsense every hour of the day.

This was one of my most liked posts for a while. Really regretting that rogue comma that I hadn't noticed.

Week 4 of the rugby #6Nations this weekend. I'm a bit worried that Hegseth might bring about Armageddon before Scotland finally wins the tournament.

I've said it a million times. A cyclist is only in the way, if your starting assumption is that a journey in a car is more important than one on a bike.

We Scots like to think of ourselves as a wee bit better than the rest of you. So, today, I think we should call out to the Scottish Parliament and #ScottishFootball to boycott the upcoming Football World Cup in the USA. To attend is 1936 all over again.

Yeah but it looks stylish and cool which is way more important than functional.

No surprise, really. I read a long time ago that a large majority of Republican Senators believed in the Rapture. To my mind, if you believe in it, you're fairly relaxed about it happening on your watch.

I only use it to read magazines until my train is ready to depart. Pile it high, sell it expensive was never a good model.

Don't you love a bit of irony?

I can't think of a worse way to spend Sunday morning than reading that rag. The problem is, this mud that Farage flings around sticks. G&D was actually a good result for Reform but he has grabbed more headlines saying 'we was robbed '.

A picture of the back of my hand with a basic rubber stamp on it, the kind you only get at the best, scruffy venues.

Although not as bad as January, we all know that February is still quite a tough month, so seeing as it's the last day, here's a doggy heralding the onset of Spring and the fact that.....well.....here comes the sun β˜€οΈ

Agreed. Their summary states that they observed 32 out of 545 voters suspected to be "family voters". They turn that into a very questionable ratio of 12%. Can't wait for that to be translated by Reform into 12% of the votes were dodgy.

I'm going to wait for the revised edition with a foreword by The Don.

Shame they're not so generous in helping people buy E Bikes and E Cargo Bikes. In hock to the car industry, as ever.

Her right collar is sticking out. Unforgivable.
