  1. Was that because he’d already had a few goes and missed It also didn’t stop the official Labour account tweeting it either
  2. The only Elbow album I can listen to all the way through is the first one, ironic, given it's title
  3. Was the gravy on offer too?
  4. If only the record industry could concoct a worse event than Record Store Day... oh wait... Its just another price gouging session
  5. It's great that your campervan can run on such thin widely available wheels
  6. I see the candidate for Norwich North who was to replace the outgoing Chloe Smith has had to resign because of some comments (Trans and Immigration issues) that he made at a hustings event at a local school. He's a full on Braverman type and had been parachuted in from Bournemouth. It also isn't his first controversial comment, he has a history of making incendiary comments. He also has a history of complaints against him from Bournemouth Council staff members over comments made there You have to wonder how he got picked in the first place (or maybe not when you realise the grassroots is throbber central) I'd link all this but it only seems to be GBeebies reporting it but Mooneying Councillor Nick Rose will get you to most of it
  7. The way it's going, the Tories will be onside with that soon enough But wait a minute... isn't that PR thing some pesky European invention
  8. That'll stop you buying shite on Old Shit We Need To Get Rid Of Friday
  9. I have three flagged but I'm not overly concerned about Cash and Haaland. That just leaves Bowen but as I only brought him in last week thats an easy no financial loss out, just who for is the issue, trying not to do the Mbuemo move so tempted by Palmer
  10. Not the asset he was last season IMO anyway, even if he's fit he gets rotated
  11. Post Autumn Statement fieldwork. Take your pick as to which one you believe. Personally I think the Techne one represents a more accurate figure for the LibDems and Reform. The rest is just noise
  12. And get your garage to stick that brown brassy paste on the threads of the wheel hub to keep the threads from seizing
  13. If he sacked him who does he replace him with, Lord George Osbourne of Columbia?
  14. I don't want to brag but I no longer have a f***ing lawn
  15. Nigel Farage - a potted history, there's much more in there than you might have realised.
  16. I'm in work, I want to stick my headphones in but I can't because I'm transcribing a series of phone calls for a Subject Access Request from a gimp who can't change a tyre and abandoned our vehicle in a petrol station on the Wirral There's only so many times I want to hear that he's never changed a tyre in his life
  17. And even that second hand apology a day later has gone down like a lead balloon
  18. Not to my knowledge. EDIT: I'm not even sure it's related to Vernon's pools tbh I think it's to do with The Vernon Pub or the Mount Vernon Pub (no longer there but was on Mount Vernon - predates the pools massively), the Vernon pub being on the corner of Vernon St which has been called that a lot longer than Vernon Sangster founded Vernon's Pools between the wars
  19. Oh I have a gig tomorrow night now The Vernons Future and St Vitus Dance. A Probe Plus Records night. Even more unusual is that the missus is coming. Potted history. Both bands released records on Probe Plus the label run by the recently deceased Geoff Davies, the gig ties in with some film about the label being shown (or premiered even) in St Helen's in the afternoon St Vitus Dance - band originally from Northern Ireland but came to Liverpool to escape the Troubles. Most memorable thing is the singer Noel ended up being Mac's replacement in the Bunnymen when he flounced off the first time. The Vernons (Now The Vernons Future) - bunch of students from Liverpool poly, now we have a couple of connections here. I used to work a bit with Andy Harding (the groups frontman) and his missus was a friend of a school friend of mine. Also my missus was a friend of Johnny Fiber from the band, who was sort of the musical genius of the band. Johnny Fiber has kind of made a fortune out of writing the music and lyrics for a stage adaptation of the Gruffalo which has been in the West end / Broadway / Sydney Opera House, which oddly started out being done by him as a laugh in his local church hall. Anyway, the missus is going to catch up with him hopefully
