I’m normally left cold by all these type of shows whether it’s normal people or celebs. Just think the format of this is what makes it.

How good is Celebrity Traitors?

Ordinarily don’t do any kind of reality TV but love normal Traitors and think the celebrity version is even better.

I’m hooked.

ALL clubs have idiots. Southend is firmly in flag shagging, Brexit voting country and a chunk of our support represents that sadly. But doesn’t change my love for the club.

Now this I’m jealous of. My favourite London venue and probably my favourite current artist - she’s right up there anyway.

Can’t speak to the sort of Brits that move to Australia though because I’ve cultivated my own bubble of only being friends with those who aren’t dicks. But sure those dicks are here too, I just don’t move in those circles.

In fairness I think Dubai is a magnet for the worst kind of people from all over the globe.

β€˜Gary Neville is a political threat to Nigel Farage because he doesn’t think the same' | The News Agents Gary Neville has accused β€œangry, middle aged white men” of stoking division in the UK following the Manchester synagogue attack on Yom Kippur. His comments have angered right-wing voices, but is this…

"It pisses them off so much. Neville lives rent-free inside their heads."

Nigel Farage has criticised Gary Neville for his comments about 'angry white men' dividing the UK. Has his "shallow patriotism" been exposed?

Ha…just had this recommended to me by my 17 year old nephew. Was able to say β€˜already on it mate’ πŸ˜‚

If you’d have said 20 years ago that I’d be firmly in the β€˜pro-Gary Neville’ camp I’d have laughed in your face πŸ˜‚

But such are the times we live in….

100% agree with you there.

It’s dangerous because it lets in the worst people to fill a void.

Did tell my kids once about the crisps where you had to put the little blue bag of salt in and shake it to flavour…and they looked at me like I was from medieval times 🀣

I have a tiny spare room as my β€˜office’ and I have to position the camera in such a way that it doesn’t show the cardboard box of cables and chargers and an old vacuum cleaner I can’t bring myself to throw away. There are some books in that room but can’t be arsed making them a feature πŸ˜‚

And people who sneer or make disparaging comments make my blood boil. Either they’ve always had the advantage of wealth and don’t appreciate it or they had opportunities of education and knowledge but wish to pull the ladder up behind them. Either way I don’t like it.

I’ve been really lucky to have my world expanded beyond the Essex estate I grew up in and love a fortunate life which I’m grateful for and discovering my local library was a huge part of that. I wonder sometimes if the me of 30+ years ago was there now would they have that same opportunity?

I’ll give this one a pass as it’s not a cavernous bowl and full to the rafters. Giving me Stade Louis II vibes (although when I went there for Monaco v Nancy there were fewer fans than this one πŸ˜‚)

And Mark Milligan’s Newcastle Jets are 1-0 down against Heidelberg. And the lazy c**t is probably still covering more yards and running quicker sat in the dugout than he ever did in a Southend shirt.

Not that I’m bitter of course πŸ˜‚

But there are plenty of families not in that position. Reading and owning books (let alone have a bookcase full of them) has become something that’s a privilege which many can’t afford after they put a roof over their head and food on the table

Pure snobbery. Now - I have bookcases, my kids have bookcases.

But I was lucky as a working class kid in a time when there was still a functioning school library and local public libraries to give me a love of books that I could pass on. And fortunate enough that we can afford books now.

Australian Cup Final against a non A-League team for any Southend fans wondering.

Mark Milligan is the new coach of Newcastle Jets? Consider me on the Heidelberg bandwagon.

Took the piss at Roots Hall. Fuck him.

It did seem like a strange decision from both parties. Just not the right fit or timing.

I fly out to the UK on the morning of 8th December and wonder if I’ll bump into Ange during the stopover at Dubai with him heading back to Australia after he’s sacked by Forest? 😳

Manchester synagogue: Four people injured in car and stabbing attack in Crumpsall Mayor Andy Burnham says the suspect is believed to be dead. Keir Starmer says the attack happening on Yom Kippur - the holiest day in the Jewish calendar - makes it

I don’t have any religion, I’m equally indifferent to all of them. But people should have the right to worship whatever God or Deity they want safely. This is appalling

Birmingham owner: Premier League elite clubs should be 'protected at all costs' Birmingham City owner Tom Wagner says lower-league clubs should not take too much in pyramid payments and allow the biggest teams in England to drive global interest.

Well, he can fuck right off

Front section standing tickets too (just got lucky in the queue) and going with two lads who I went to the β€˜Live By The Sea’ gig with 30 years ago (me from Brisbane, one living in Sydney and they other flying in from Dubai).

No all day dodgy seafront pub crawl pre gig this time though πŸ˜‚
