As good a reason as I can think of to boycott the completion... as well of the crispy snack thing.

Can we have Morris Dancing instead?

It has to be the violin concerto in Em

Okayyy ! Gestern noch Rants über FußballFans und #WM26 #Infantino #Trump #PeacePrize ! Heute : Es gibt Hoffnung 👏

Wait till you see the explanation of how the draw works.

The 'ceremony' is an absolute hoot! There's no way the actual tournament can live up to this. Infantile (sic) has just said he made drawers in a previous life - not clear if he was referring to furniture or underwear.

Done

And then there's this

A bloody good read! In every sense.

Thread 🧵

@bylinetimes.bsky.social can now reveal that, during the crucial period when convicted Reform leader Nathan Gill was most active, working directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most senior ally in Ukraine, he was also one of Nigel Farage’s closest confidantes 1/12

Not the end of the errors then!

A very close-up photograph of a Barnacle Goose looking quite threatening.

Can't do the cricket, but might be able to make it down to Peckham on Tuesday. If you're around East Dulwich, I can recommend Chener Books in Lordship Lane.

Wish we'd known. Jan spoke to us at the end of the match in Altona. A thoroughly lovely man. It would have been nice to say hello.

A shelf with a heap of book recommendations. All published by Fitzcarraldo Editions.

Any of these

I can recommend any of these. I'm also working my way through their catalogue. I also love the simplicity (and durability!) of the covers - apparently based on 19th Century French covers.

Would selling a jumper to Diana Spencer (as she was at the time - 1981) count?

Yup! Football, sausages, and surrealism at the Kunsthalle.👌

Rule 3 could apply to Bexiteers and their progeny.

Can't think where else you'd look.

Hi @mrjamesob.bsky.social - just seen this in a @thenewworldmag.bsky.social article on Greenland. I reckon it puts Kiddy with Wales and Belgium as important geographical comparators?

The online edition is particularly poor as toilet paper.

Screenshot from the BBC News site. The question "What is the weirdest thing in the universe?" coincidentally appears above a photograph of Elon Musk.

It's not often BBC News gets things right these days, but this seems like a reasonable answer to the question.

And a mandolin would be something chefs use to slice stuff? Oh...

1. He wasn't made redundant, he was sacked!
2. He could sign on.

And local independent bookshops, like the wonderful Chener Books in East Dulwich, I assume?
