I used to work with a bloke in his forties who wore Lynx Africa

It’s a Supreme Court ruling though. Labour could subsequently legislate against it but I don’t think you can put this on them. And say this as someone who agrees with your general sentiment re: this government at present

I saw Daltrey performing live about 10 years ago (tv not in person) and his voice was absolutely shot then. It must be embarrassing now. Never really got The Who anyway though. Even the stuff from at their peak leaves me completely cold

Can’t think why we don’t get more lasses posting on here

Turned out nice again

YouTube music has loads of obscure dance stuff from years back. Not available to stream on the likes of Apple. If that’s your thing it’s something to consider. Presumably because the label has folded so no one owns the rights and/or any existing copies aren’t high enough quality. So it’s just stuff where people have uploaded a recording of their vinyl copy or whatever
-
I presume they make more money off adverts. But either way you’d think they’d get easily more than double the subscribers if they charged half the price
-
I’ve gone down a rabbit hole (to the extent I might buy a YouTube subscription, to avoid those pesky adverts) in watching BBC Archive. I think there’s some of it but only a little bit on iPlayer. But there’s fucking weeks’ worth of clips (and whole programmes) on YouTube. This is an incredible interview btw:

Aye. Inconsistent but still spending loads and winning the odd trophy. Not quite trudging through that decade they had some great players (Bryan Robson is massively underrated these days). -
Aye. He’s gone dependent on a decent offer. And if we have to then someone like Neave will take his place for the academy player (or however it’s termed) in the squad for European games. I take Andrew’s point but he’s not got enough quality in terms technical ability. If I’m wrong I am not that bothered because I definitely think he’s still a decent squad player

And their activism wouldn’t be limited to football matches they’re attending

I’m honestly considering opening a magic bean shop on Wearside: https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/jamal-khashoggi-way-newcastle.1653147/#post-42607594

Aye. I found that out a canny while back but yeah, it’s an odd one

Ratcliffe will have probably only got rid of Ashworth because he wanted a scapegoat as well. -

Urgarte. At least that’s how I think you spell it. Gemmill will let me know if it’s not -
If we do get CL qualification there should be plenty of game time for him and Gordon in their favoured position. I thought both his goals were excellent as the first one is only a tap in because of his anticipation and working hard to get into that position. The second one showed his directness and finishing ability. Of course it was all about Man Utd poor defending in hindsight someone should have fouled him at best from opposition’s pov
-
Juve won on Saturday and are now in the CL spots. Although the league remains really tight with only 8 points between 3rd and 9th. Kelly played the whole match in a back 3, as I think he did the previous one under the new manager.

Will no one answer his simple question?

Speaking of which, and I’ve only seen the trailer, Brosnan’s accent is horrific in Mobland. And he actually is Irish

I corrected myself before you did. You’re slipping

I just saw he’s paid tribute to the NHS staff so scratch that last bit

I asked my lass and apparently it’s a severe chest infection. Caused by a viral or bacterial infection. Treatable with antibiotics. It can lead to further complications like the lung scarring others have mentioned. In rare cases it can be fatal but that’s usually when there are other underlying conditions. He should make a full recovery. There’s a good chance he’s in private care and it might not have led to a hospitalisation normally and this is precautionary. Because I think it would’ve been leaked sooner if he was in somewhere like the RVI.

Well envious. Been to Tuscany before (Pisa and Florence). Florence is a great city. Absolutely loved it. Sienna looks amazing too. Have a great time, mate. Italy is amazing.
