That’s gorgeous

This is very true

I couldn’t agree more

Me Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse. Comedians who currently have the best show on British tv

This may mean nothing to non Brits but I bumped into these two when I was out running and turned into a giggling fan boy

Well the agony was far worse before Andy Murray finally won. That wait went on for decades

You may be able to correct me but I used to work in a pub in Worcester called the Swan with two Nicks. And I was led to believe the ‘nicks’ referred to markings of ownership?

I see Gregg Wallace’s PR team are still smashing it out the park

Interesting….Prey tell

You’re very close. As someone who lives there, I can confirm it pronounced Wooster shur!

Actually you’re right. And I apologise for that. I guess I have more faith in my country than you it seems. And i sincerely hope I’m right

When our PM accepts a plane from Qatar rather than apologising for taking free Taylor Swift tickets, I’ll listen. We’re not the ones crashing the world economy and stoking WW3

I’m not in any kind of denial that there are a lot of complete shit shows in this country at the moment. Some of which you’ve listed, others you haven’t. But you’re incredibly naive if you think we’re anywhere close to the shit show in America.

Again, I can entirely see your point. But anybody can see that the scale of what is happening in the US, plus the blatant corruption is completely unprecedented

Not sure I can agree. There are elements yes, but we won’t be like the US

I can’t argue with that. I’m just saying they aren’t dismantling democracy on the scale it’s happening in America. There are huge problems with our government but I don’t believe there’s an existential threat to to democracy like the U.S

Well one of us is

Our government could be doing better it’s true. But we are in no way whatsoever going through something similar to America!

How about ‘Don’t let your spirit wane’ by Gang of Youths

I’d suggest ‘Live Oak’ by Jason Isbell as a fine example

A cat in my village who recently died was very loved. His people left a lovely sign outside
