University Challenge answers finally hit my area of expertise: Gladys Knight Curtis Mayfield Edwin Starr Al Green

The BBC decided the best person to give a view about Andy Burnham as a potential leader for Labour was Neil Coyle MP. Coyle's achievements include foul and abusive language, fat shaming, racism, bullying, fiddling expenses, sexual harassment and being barred from bars at Westminster. Great choice

Oh. Doing what Richard Tice told them. Unbelievable. Looking forward to Starmer telling us the North is a priority at the Labour Party Conference. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Watching The Covid Contracts: Follow the Money on ITV. There's a significant number of people who should be in Gaol. Hats off to ITV, Private Eye, The Good Law Project and anyone else involved in this. VIP Lanes giving public money away to Tory donors without any lawful basis.

Flying home today. Weather in the NW looks dodgy. Will I need my big coat then?😢

Game's gone.🙄 www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Portimonense v Sporting B. 1-2 Ten men Lisbon cheat and foul their way to a late winner despite having a man sent off and some attempted soft pen in their favour chicanery. Late winner for the dirty, cheating sons of Jose.

The BBC finally feels it has to publish something about the Johnson leaks. Mr Wafic Said, who gave £2.6M to the Tories, is unable to remember the content of his conversation with Johnson "due to his age". He's 85. I hope someone's got power of attorney. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Our hotel has the best poolside music ever. Durand Jones, Curtis, Charles Wright, Temptations, Sharon Jones, Aretha, O’Jays, Natasha Watts, Shirley Brown. Not a bad tune all day. The Mrs thinks I have bribed them.

@profanity.accountant I maintain I only swear at Nazis.

Kid Creole & The Coconuts at the Ritz.😎

Walked from Lytham to St Anne's along the prom. Beautiful day, sun, pleasant breeze and very few folk about. Then calamity. Had to walk back to Lytham to Seniors. 25,426 steps - so reasonable offsetting.🙄

ITV reporting last night on the criminals from Brazil convicted of murder and sex offences against children who have been permitted to remain in the UK. Meanwhile the home office shows its commitment to idiocy by going after innocent kids. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

It's my daughter's wedding tomorrow. We are starting with an open water swim with the Triathlon club early doors! 🙄 We'll probably stay that wet all day. First week of June weather ought to be better than this.😩

E-mail from the cheeky bastards at Microsoft "The price for Microsoft 365 Family subscriptions will increase from £79.99* per year to £104.99* per year." They want to charge for their co-pilot AI bollocks. Martin Lewis tells you how to avoid the cost www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/2025/02...

Saw a Fjallraven jacket I'd fancied had been 20% reduced. The wife went to pay using her storecard thingy to get points and was charged £60 rather than the expected £160. It's now apparently an early birthday pressie.😎😂😂😂

His majesty has asserted his domination over all the Geese at Pennington Flash. He's eaten two dead birds, something that once may have been a fish and his body weight in horse shit. And he looks like butter wouldn't melt...
