I couldn’t give less of a monkeys about the whole lot of them, except the paedo prince who should be locked in the tower. Regarding queen horse face, and king sausage fingers.., if you’re the king and can’t decide to call your missus the queen, then what’s the point in even being king?

When I was a kid we had a telephone in the house identical to the one in the photo. Those of a certain age will remember the trill sort of tone it made rather than the bell sound of other phones. Anyway, my mum used to do her nut as a starling would sit on the fence outside the kitchen window mimicking the sound of that phone, and she’d run off to answer it.

Really interesting observation that. Corvids are very smart so there’ll definitely be method to them doing it. Not the same but I posted on here last year about a starling around me singing what sounded like a pond full of mallards. Never managed to record or ‘merlin’ it yet.

Pop not really a word up here, was just the juice lorry. They certainly kept the dentists busy in the days before the word ‘diet’ might prefix your fizzy drink of choice.

Well I never. UK Supreme Court rules legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex - live updates WWW.BBC.CO.UK Judges say the "concept of sex is binary" while adding that transgender people...

Went to stock car racing quite a bit many years ago as had a mate that raced, bangers were usually at the end of the night and always good fun.

Just witnessed one. Rory McIlroy completing the slam. Incredible drama.

It’s a beautiful day here, but with April’s showers in the post for next week. I’ve already spent over an hour tidying and watering the garden and getting pots ready for planting. Going to head out in a minute and do a bit more, but thought I’d have a quick look on THL and see what’s cooking. FFS! Surely some of you have better things to do on a Friday night or a glorious spring Saturday morning than come on here for this sh!te?

Had more sparrowhawks in the garden the last few weeks than I’ve had all winter. Don’t know where they go. Been a nest on a golf course 2 minutes from me for a few years now. Last Autumn there were 6 young birds kicking about together, I assume all fledged from the same nest. Quite a sight.

I don’t understand any of the intricacy or motivation of what’s going on. What I do know is where there’s chaos there’s cash to be made. I’d expect the ones making the waves, rather than the ones trying to react, will be the ones making the most. In all likelihood poor people across all continents will suffer as a result of the instability and uncertainty of what’s going on.., and by the time it all settles down, the rich will be richer still.

Best not to look if you’re not looking to take anything out any time soon. It’ll all right itself eventually.

Shame that. My favourite bird is the peregrine…, and I usually keep an eye on a couple of nest cams this time of year. Fortunately they’re nearly as common as crows these days.

Agree to an extent about best drivers and best cars but there remains a lot of variables. In my opinion Alonso is a better driver than Vettel, but has half the world titles simply because of the tools they had. I actually think that if you were to put Max and the likes of a prime Hamilton, Schumacher, Senna, Fangio maybe Prost, Stewart, Lauda, Piquet in exactly the same car, there would be very little to split them.

F1 is a motorsport rather than a sport…, so much of the success is down to the car. Granted it needs a great driver to get the best out of it, but for me it makes it nigh on impossible to determine who the best is, or was. No doubt Verstappen is a great in the making though, but the extent of his legacy will always be dictated by the car his team can put on the track.

Another memorable and iconic sporting moment that. Watched that game in digs abroad with a Geordie lad.,, who was absolutely frantic during the game and couldn’t sit down. I remember when the ref blew for the foul saying ‘Beckham scores this’.., and the rest is history. For me though (as a Scotsman) as good as the free kick was, Beckham’s performance that day was absolutely unbelievable…, covered every blade of grass, and was the very epitome of a captain who leads by example.

I’m in favour of extremely draconian punishments for all sex offenders, especially where kids are involved…, but the ‘level’ of deviance should come in to play also. Don’t know all the facts but read he was a trained ‘child protection officer’? Fcuking death sentence for me.

Was going to post this too. Amazing moment, Man U been my ‘English’ team since the ‘80’s. Remember watching this in a pub and the goal go in and my mates all jumping about and I just sat there almost stunned. Mate still ribs me about it till this day.
-
Know nowt about weight lifting but that’s what I’m talking about.., something that makes you feel like you’ve witnessed greatness…, and will live with you forever. Sport at its best.
-
Watched that live too, unbelievable grit to carry on.
-
Pretty sure the game wasn’t a classic but the moment was enormous. I was on holiday in the highlands with the missus and two very young kids, in a sweet shop where they had the game on the radio. I knew Murray was close to the finish line and so I apologised to my missus and set off at a sprint to a packed hotel bar at the other end of the village. I had to see it live. Incredible scenes in the bar.
-
I’m too young to have watched them live. There have been loads obviously but top of my head some of the best fights I’ve watched live might be Benn v McClelland, Morales v Barrera.., and a domestic fight between Jamie Moore and Matt Macklin.

The absolute genius of this registered with me immediately and before I seen all the angles.

Like a lot on here I love a bit of sport, and what I probably enjoy most are those precious moments which have the hair stand up on the back of your neck or get you up on your feet…, and where you realise that you’re witnessing greatness in real time. By greatness I mean not only an individual’s talent, but maybe a team that achieved immortality by doing something great. What are yours?
