Thought this was pretty good (and depressing). http://www.politics.co.uk/blogs/2014/11/11/rochester-reveals-a-left-whic-lost-its-voice-h

Whereas I'd far rather go to Kotor and Dubrovnik. Ain't life weird?

First weekend. Praying we get an away tie in the 3rd round so I'm not tempted to go.

European gin lake on standby! Congrats

That's the problem for them. Someone like Andy Burnham would be decent as a future leader but why would he (or Umunna or any of them) throw their hat into the ring now with the risk that'd entail and knowing they don't have enough of a profile beyond the broadly politically aware yet? Different matter when you're appointing someone like Cameron five years out from potentially taking over, but six months away from a GE...

The John Lewis ad is out, so that's it, deck the halls.

MASKLIFE!

February alas.

Would've been fine if he'd turned off the engine.

If the SNP poll numbers in Scotland right now are in any way borne out at the GE then Labour could lose 20 MPs north of the border, and then there's the UKIP factor in the idiot havens of Essex and Kent and certain northern cities. Add to the fact that, Farage-lovers aside, no one really likes or trusts any mainstream politicians at all, and things start getting fun.

He did one day of Couch To 5K in June, that totally counts.

Exercising masterful self-restraint.

As if, the selfish bastard.

Man U.

On your bike, Mackem.

Rattling around the 86s now, which the internet tells me is a bit under 14 stone in old money (). Feel like the running is gradually starting to get somewhere, I snuck under 28 minutes on the flat at Edinburgh Parkrun last weekend (gorgeous course btw, not really "in" Edinburgh at all but right on the waterfront) then did the same over the local hills this morning. Still not particuarly enjoying it, still clinging on for dear life by the end, but apparently I'm getting signed up for a 10K over the even more evil hills of Greenwich Park in December whether I like it or not (Merry bloody Christmas...) so I suppose I'd better learn to like it.

If he stands up, he might accidentally end up getting his round in, so I doubt it.
