Trying to get a trestle table back off Beth Tweddle. Tamworth FC, Villa, the odd bit of groundhopping (804 (Premier FC v Avery) grounds and counting), Cricket, Half Man Half Biscuit, ex Royal Signals, aging Indie kid, Lefty twat apparently. And an #MDANT

Not particularly, Tony Blair visited China a few times, the latest being 2005.

Quiz night:

SHAGGY: Velma, can you name an African animal with a horn on it's head?

SCOOBY: Rhino

SHAGGY: Yes I know you do Scoob, but it's not your turn.

Are you saying the early Blair government was authoritarian? Because that's when the UK was effectively disarmed after Dunblane.

Why must Greens win?
On that polling you should be lending your vote to Labour.
Or do you want Reform to win?

Paper round never paid enough, working on a fruit and veg stall on the markets did though.

I've been mostly appalled by Deacon Blue, but fair play to them for this.

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

Happy with it so far, especially if Dougie can find the form he had before he was forced out by PSR.
Now, we have 5 days to find someone daft enough to take Guessand off our hands and bring in one more midfielder.

I have now heard Don't Stop the Music by Yarbrough and Peoples in two random places on two consecutive days.
If I hear it again tomorrow I'm going full on conspiracy theory.

We are almost certainly heading for hung parliament territory by 2029, and there are no parties, not even what is left of the Tories, who will taint themselves by forming a coalition with Reform.

Why "uh oh"?
Why repeatedly ask a question that is obviously not going to be answered once you've asked it, say, twice?
How about grilling the FM on policy?

To comply with the UK Online Safety Act, you will now be required to provide age verification before being allowed to search through hedgerows.

Those high profile defectors haven't gone over to sit on their arses until 2029, at least a couple of them will be eyeing up Denton.

England's plan here seems tob to bowl really badly and hope Sri Lanka keep chipping it to fielders.
Seems to be working too.

He's also probably Labour's best bet for holding onto Gorton and Denton, if they put up a nobody Reform will take that seat.

"Rising of the lights" sounds like a vaguely pleasant way to go.
