Surely these lads would have been more obvious. Interestingly enough, they featured two members of toontastic.

That thread man. Apparently Local Hero was all a plot from the Magedia to force magness on the region. Wibble. They're fucking insane.

Pretty sure George "Geordie" Ridley was a MLF marra until 1992 and Keegoon, along with Bobby Robson, Wor Jackie and Sam Fender. 👍

This shit again. 😆 The Blaydon Races was set in county Durham marra, it's a MLF song. Meanwhile wise men say, penned in Memphis, Wearside.

Too true. You what?

Doesn't literally almost every club have a recognised "anthem"? Often ones with some local connection too, not a random Elvis song which is fuck all to do with the club.

And despite this triggered the usual accusations of "Mag scum" etc. Fuck me, what a place.

Yeah, I mean I'll be meeting with the head interviewer ahead of time on Teams anyway so pretending they don't know who I am is a bit of a joke. Fuck it, really hope I get this. My career has been in turmoil for months now. Just want to get something to last me until I retire in 10 years or whatever. My old colleagues were having an away day in tynemouth last week so I met up with them. I was told I could always go back. Thanks but no thanks hopefully, nice to have a back up though if the worst happens.

2 months into my new job, I feel like HMHM and am looking for another one. It's because I'm on a fixed term contract so need to move to another role with a permanent contract within the same organisation. Spotted an ideal opportunity which would be a promotion and is permanent. Anyway, advice needed. This role is quite scientific and academic, right up my street. You're supposed to be anonymised, but I want to make it clear on the application forms I am the first named author in 3 high profile studies. But doing so will inevitably unmask me? Fuck it, I'll do it anyway. So not really advice needed, more reassurance. Also hoping now I'm in the organisation there will be so e funny handshakes and winks, I always felt fucked over trying to get in from the outside but now my foot is in the door no way am I moving it!

Racist.

I've changed my office to a room with patio doors. At least one fucking pigeon a day flies into them at full pelt, the thick twats. Not to sound like that tit from Parklife, I do enjoy watching the small birds around my bird feeder. Robins, chaffinches, bull finches, blue tits.... surprisingly colourful UK birds when you think about it. Also get visits from this chap. Technically a rodent I guess but then so are my pigs.

I was very tempted to get my zoom lens out walking on the beach yesterday..... But got sudden panic over ethical, legal, employment and MF concerns.

Oxymoron alert!

Actually that sound very similar to an experience I had at a restaurant called "El Treno" near York, next to the ECML. Its called " The Sidings" now, presumably new management. Grateful for trainspotting, I was like that lad from YouTube. But even that couldn't make up for seriously the worst service and food I've ever had in the UK. The pizza calzone just looked an anaemic dog turd. I told them I'd only pay for the drinks, which they agreed but were so fucking incompetent they forgot the wine still only charged me half the drinks bill. The TripAdvisor reviews backed up it wasn't a one off.

At least there is separation of hardware though. So much more choice on the Android side. Genuine question too, do Google software products run on Apple? And vice versa?

There will be 20 submarines in total I think, not all nuclear armed. The new ones are being built jointly with Australia and hopefully not full of US hardware and spyware. I dunno "military Keynsianism" may be a good thing?

Well, it will be a prime target for Russian nukes if it all goes pear shaped. Boom Town indeed.

Guardian says these are conventionally armed nuclear subs? Maybe that's the most cost effective naval defence nowadays? Honestly don't know. But given the threat posed by Russia, I'm not against having more nuclear weapons anyway, including tactical nukes.

Mallorca - large cockroach in my KFC zinger burger. NYC - chicken and black bean stir fry. A sizable proportion of the black beans were actually dead insects Washington DC - Ethiopian restaurant where you eat using flat bread. Chewing gum in the flat bread. Noting that horrendous springs to mind from this country tbh.

I know. His girl friend is fit as fuck too. Funny old world.

Happy Monday Morning campers. I know it's Monday and we are all worried about Wykiki and how long he will last in his job before calling someone a c*nt, but let me share with you a short from my new favourite YouTube channel. This lad knows how to enjoy life. And who can blame him? Not often you get to see and, more importantly, hear a double headed class 56 combo in central London. 👍 https://youtube.com/shorts/xsYqVVHDoFQ?si=ODB83vjDiN0Bvy78 Damn, won't let me embed shorts!

@Howmanheyman, seriously, sounds weird. At keast you have an explanation now I guess and it also sounds like there is treatment available.

You've told this story before mate.

Well this is why I don't like Apple. Monopoly providers of both your hardware and software. You can use Google Drive etc on any platform I think?

I get it mate. Horses for courses. My phone's insured through the usual house hold stuff. Last year D1, she had a paddy and chucked it against a brick wall, destroying it. Claimed on insurance, Apple Newcastle fixed it. Great to have that point of contact. On the other hand, none of my androids have ever had problems anyway, mainly cos I'm not an insane teenage lass. Although I may start identifying as one soon, ans please respect that. 👍
