One memory that stuck with me.., probably mid-teens late one balmy summers night, bunch of mates and me had taken acid and were hanging around estate just along from the local boozer. Some guy maybe early 20’s still in his work suit totally pissed walked from the pub right by us muttering to himself. Went into his house about 30yds from where we were sitting and strangled his girlfriend…, and all the time we were a stones throw away, oblivious. Done with her murder. Cut to maybe ten years ago I see a report on the news of some guy that’s done in his girlfriend.., I’m certain it’s the same cn

Joe Gallagher diagnosed with cancer. Shame, comes across as a decent guy.., and always seems to put his fighters best interests first.

Grand slam decider this afternoon.

Plenty of birds singing in the trees now and out scouting for nesting spots. I spent five minutes just listening to a song thrush the other day. A rare bird around these parts nowadays sadly.

One of the most beautiful songs ever written imo. See Coldplay just covered in BBCR2’s piano room. Good and true but nowhere near the original.

Fast Eddie on IFLTV saying Canelo v Jake Paul would generate over $200m. This most noble of sports has been turned into a circus. Between the constant top-billing of these Youtube champions and the whoring of some of the best match ups to the Saudis, I’ve lost a lot of the interest I had in watching boxing. Pretty depressing when a lot of the younger generation will now aspire to be the next world champion gobshite like Jake Paul, rather than an honest to goodness boxer who lives the life and tries to do it all the right way.

Old boy and his filming were featured on Winterwatch this week. Amazing stuff. Says he sometimes paddles as much as ten miles out to sea. You only need to make one mistake out there and you’d be crab food.

Been strong winds since before dawn. Meant to peak at nearly 90mph about lunchtime. Missus said “it’s getting like there’s a storm every other week” I said “there is now they give them all names”. Before all that we used to just call it winter. We’ll survive.

I certainly don’t and won’t agree with everything he says and does, but we could really do with someone with his balls right now.

For me and those of my generation, I’d say Dalglish is the best ever. Beats me how he never won a Ballon d’or. Funny I remember a conversation with my old fella over 30 years ago when King Kenny’s career was coming to an end and me saying he was the best Scottish player of all time, and my dad said “that’s cos you never seen the lawman”.
-
He’d been in a bad way for a while so probably a blessed release. Bit before my time but was supposed to have been a hell of a player. RIP

Not sure miners would have been so willing to weigh in after ‘84, and Orgreave etc. As for nowadays, people are more likely to stand by filming with their phones. Who’d be a copper now? Public have zero respect for them. You rarely see them compared to when I was young, and when you do it’s two 5 foot nothing, slightly overweight young women getting out a van at McD’s, and who look like they’re weighed down by the uniform (PPE) and all the shit they have to carry. Doubt they could run the length of themselves and as for nicking someone who didn’t want to come quietly, you’d need about two

The lads that rebuild bikes might like this. DT250

The way some young people speak. Not just the slang words that I don’t understand, they’ve always been about, but just the way some talk. Treated myself to a bacon roll at the bakers this morning. When the 20 something year old server put the roll down and asked if that was all, I pointed to the bottle of juice I’d placed right in front of him on the counter, to which he said “oh, and a cheeky wee bottle of coke zero”. Now, if I’d just tipped a miniature of whisky into it then fair enough, but I didn’t, so what the fcuk? No need for it.

Still wouldn’t have been getting out to check if it was okay.

Those two lynx in Scotland have melted into the landscape to live like ghosts and become the subject of myth and legend. Nah, they’ve both been captured!

20 arrested so far for looting. Scum of the earth. They should have a shoot to kill policy, that’d nip it in the bud.

Sympathy obviously for those that have died, but a lot worse sh!t going on elsewhere in the world right now. Incidentally, given the change in climate and that it now appears huge chunks of the US, Europe and Australia are effectively turned into gigantic tinderboxes every couple of years.., and the astronomic financial damage which is done when they go up…, isn’t that a fcuking open goal to anyone looking to harm said places?
-
My old fella used to take me with him when he did a bit of rough shooting and fishing regular back in the 70’s. I still remember one particularly cold and wet day shooting and getting home and my brother telling me I’d missed the muppet show. I was gutted. Next week I never went as I didn’t want to miss the muppets. I must have been about five. Never went shooting with him again.

Have to say Littler is certainly not getting any littler.., and is in really poor nick for a lad of only 17. I reckon the lifestyle of a pro darts player won’t be good for him either.., staying/eating in hotels etc. all the time and there might be trouble down the road for him.., especially once he can drink legally. Hope he works it out as I think he’s a generational talent and brilliant for the game. Remember a few years ago there was a campaign to get darts into the olympics. Jesus wept.

I’ve no intention of ever stripping down and rebuilding a motorbike engine but could watch this guy doing it for hours. Fascinating.
-
MVG sloppy but had chances but couldn’t finish when it counted. Littler did what he needed to do without needing top gear. Well deserved. The one thing that stands out with Littler, other than the quality darts he plays, is that there’s not even a twitch as he gets close to the line. Going to be tough to beat for the next fcuk knows how many years!
-
Fingers crossed that both players turn up with their best darts tonight. Could be an absolute barn stormer. I’ve bet the nuke to win 7-5 but don’t care who wins as long as we get a spectacle.
