I've only seen all 3 pairs all turn down the chance once. I don't think the audience sat around the studio were happy.

I think I have only seen it on Bullseye. Otherwise, I am sure I'd have been on at my mum to rent it from Granada as it would doubtless help me with my homework

DDR 1974. Or Ajax away 1991, which I had but gave away to an attractive bar maid

Has a host nation of the World Cup ever bombed two of the competing nations in the same calendar year they’re hosting it before?

Or is that just a perk of being FIFA’s peace prize winner that you’re allowed to?

It is less official than the other similar exhibitions and set in an actual Bunker that was connected to Anhalter Bahnof, the facade of which still stands. Right up yours and Tom's straße

Berlin Story – The whole story of Berlin in a Bunker – Berlin Story Berlin Story - The whole story of berlin in a real bunker - Hitler how could it happen - berlin 1945 to today

Can you believe they were out of pork knuckle??? Anyway, when you travel, come here www.berlinstory.de More info and darker, but with a few opinions thrown in, than the T o T (which is still well worth visiting, obvs). The empty bunker at the end is properly eerie. H lasted about 10 seconds in there

Have you got a name for that bar? We are on Stresemannstraße in Potsdamer Platz area, so assume we are near there

Yep. If there is a football match, beer and travel, Sam is all over it. H is doing a boat trip when we are at football. Tomorrow we are doing Berlin Bunker story, T of T, maybe Checkpoint museum and then maybe DDR museum or may leave that till later on Sunday. J & H went up TV Tower this evening

Hertha v NΓΌrnberg. Joe has never been here and isn't likely to with work, so we decided to all come here as Joe wants to see the sights and I'm never going to argue

In Berlin. Getting through customs took longer that the flight over. Gone to a dive bar where smoking is not just allowed, it seems it is compulsory. Bloke in fluorescent sleeve shirt recognised me and youngest son from last time we were here at start of 2025

Couldn't find my ear buds and other ones need charging, so having to raw-dog the entire 20 minutes from Winchester to Basingstoke. 30 minutes if you include the walk to the station. #influencer #ironman #strength

I went down my mums flat this morning at the bottom of Winch by King Alf statue. About 1.5 miles from me. For the first time in the 20 years I have lived here, I got a bus home as I just couldn't face more fucking rain.

Staying in Southampton tonight and have indigestion after a meal. Nip to St Mary's St and find somewhere open and expect to be fleeced. Pleasantly surprised that a pack of Rennie was only Β£3.79. OK, after opening the box, two had already been consumed, but it is still good.

It started happening at Bedfords in Southampton. Madness. The pub has now closed down (which is a shame, as it was great BITD)
