Just when you think you’ve seen it all..,

Hope a shark eats you

Still very wintry feeling here. Been cold, wet and windy for weeks. More settled this morning which has brought on a bit of birdsong. All I’ve had so far this year has been the robins doing a nightshift, and a few blackbirds just tuning up. Ten minutes in the garden this morning I heard collared doves, great and blue tits, chaffinch and a mistle thrush. Always look forward to these early signs that spring and all it brings is on the way.

Watched the Skyscraper thing with Alex Honnold after seeing a post by Tomo. I kind of fast-forwarded my way through and found it all a bit bizarre to be honest.., and like something out of a movie.

Don’t believe the hype. I haven’t voted Labour since they dropped clause 4 and became tories who wore red ties.

Leopards can change party, but they can’t change their spots. I see them as a vehicle to drive change, in particular in tory policy. Saying that, I’m expecting them to give the SNP a shock in the Scottish parliament elections in May. Like a lot of parties the SNP have been driven by inclusivity and equality with no regard to the will of the electorate. Reform will hopefully drive the main parties to start to listen to the majority again, rather than grandstand and pander to the latest grievance of the perpetually offended minority.

All the very best with the treatment and the battle ahead

Just watched it, must’ve lost a pint of sweat out my palms. Good watch.

Maybe controversial, but Queen were shit when Mercury was alive, since then (he died 35 fcuking years ago) they have been an utter irrelevance. May is an egotist, and badgers are just another spotlight for him. Sure I seen something recently where Geldof had to correct the portrayal that the phone lines at live aid went crazy after Queen played.., i.e. they saved all those Ethiopians. Geldof actually praised Bowie for giving up a song in his slot so that the famous vt clip of kids dying would be put out live during the show. Not sure if it was the Queen movie from a few years ago, or some

Probably more early 80’s than 70’s thing but the advent of the video player and video rental shops was a revelation. Had a mate who’s folks would always be out of a Saturday night and we’d all troop round to his to watch some horror, or Vietnam war.., or gangster movie. Loved this at the time, although it really hasn’t aged well

It’s so reminiscent of the George Floyd thing…, being told one thing on all the news channels, whilst your eyes are telling you a different story. I’m sorry she’s dead, but there’s no way it happens if she’s compliant with the police instruction, and doesn’t drive her car towards an armed officer. Simple.

Doesn’t sound like work to me. Might have kept schtum, or at least not have posted about it on a hunting and fishing forum until it was in the bag mind

There’s so little new content now we probably need less likes.., sadly.

Littler just too good. Van Veen unable to find the darts he played against Humphries and Anderson.., pity as it could’ve been one for the ages.

Been a funny tournament in some ways with big names dropping early and the emergence onto the world stage of some cracking talent. SF’s tonight. Would love to see Ando win it but I think Littler v van Veen final. The way the Dutch lad has played it maybe won’t be a shoe in for Luke the Nuke.
