The TNT/BT Sports football commentary and analysis team. Switching over again - I can’t listen to them. Great game, players, goals etc. ruined. Lamal is fantastic but not absolutely everything he does is ‘delicious’.

If we are going to negotiate to allow a mad man to host an event at his golf course, perhaps we should ask for a bit more and promise to let him win it?

“Follow Your Bliss”, also.

Saw The Delines at Union Chapel last night. Absolutely fantastic, a perfect band for the venue. They are back in March 26, already booked!

I had to do this as well

Absolutely belting performance. Something for everyone, most Dylan fans will love it, and the pedants can moan about “Judas”.

In case you haven’t seen this here’s a reminder that Man Utd part owner Jim Ratcliffe openly admitted he was told that ‘a coalition of six major clubs had a certain level of influence in the Premier League…’.

Please don’t ever doubt that the “cartel” is real. 👀

These forecasts should trigger SWEP Severe Weather Emergency Protocol. We are not hearing anything. In addition we have concerns that people need to be 'verified' to recieve a SWEP bed.

“White City”, Dominic Nolan. Great writing, strong plot , nice pacing. If you want a sense of 1950’s (West) London, then read this.
