Erm, Hanratty

One with piles?

Living the 20th century, English pub life.

Romero just sent off for Paulinha’s season ending assault on Boubacar Kamara a few weeks ago.

A line drawn map of Birmingham showing the circular route of the number 11 bus route.

It's basically a glorified version of Birmingham's legendary Outer Circle bus route.

A crowd sit on a lawn in front of a stage. The trees surrounding the stage are lit in green and purple.

Shakespeare, Australian style. #TwelfthNight #ASC

Going to see a production of Twelfth Night in the local botanic gardens under the stars. Needless to say we are not in the northern hemisphere.

Sorry, you’ll have to speak up. We can’t hear you down here because your horse is so high.

Anyway. Got to go. Those unreasoned, low information Bluesky posts about tennis players clothing choices won’t write themselves you know.

At this very moment “I’m So Bored With The U.S.A.” by The Clash.

I’m old enough to remember when he was a callow youth writing smartarse quips in the NME.

Went to watch Hamnet and it’s excellent (esp Jessie Buckley). Did my lip wobble? Yes. Is it emotionally manipulative? Yes.

But here’s the thing. ALL films are emotionally manipulative. They are by design made to make you cry, laugh, wince, cringe, jump.

It’s what they do and why we watch them.

Sorry. Misread your OP as ‘a plumber could turn their hand to plastering with no additional training’. My bad.

The brownest motor car ever.

I’ve had rooms plastered by a general builder and by a plasterer. The work done by the builder was adequate. The work done by the plasterer was art.

An Austin Allegro motor car in a colour that can only be described as goose shit green.

Jannik Sinner’s outfits at the Australian Open are a tribute to the colours of British Leyland’s 1970’s models.

I'm curious about where in the American criminal code it says the penalty for breaking a taillight is summary execution.

Make them show their vaccination status as a condition of entry. Just for the fun of it if nothing else.

Sly & Robbie & Grace & Wally & Mikey & Sticky. As good a run as any group.

Also did a video with Leonard Nimoy so extra bonus points for that.

“Hoddle an’ Waddle” sounds like a fart in the bath.

And yes, that is a half-remembered joke from the 1980’s.

The musician Prince dressed in an orange shirt against a purple background playing a natural wood coloured electric guitar. He’s undoubtedly being awesome.

I watched Sabalenka and Alcaraz on Rod Laver Arena today at the Australian Open tennis. I’ve also watched past greats likes Federer and Williams. #AO26

But the greatest performer I’ve seen there is Prince.

Because he’s an evil, interfering prick.

It's madness that the roofs are not closed from the get-go on hot days at the Australian Open tennis.

"Yeah we'll wait for it to get hot enough to set hair on fire before we take action."

#AO26 #AusOpen

It would scramble their already scrambled minds that there is a penguin colony here in Melbourne Australia. The temperature today will be well over 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

Snip of a Guardian opinion column headline by Andy Burnham. It says ‘Manchesterism’ is building a better politics and a strong economy. The whole country should be inspired.

As a Brummie, “manchesterism” is not selling it to me on so many levels.

Because he’s a baked bean.

“Bored of Peace”

Without higher resolution I can't tell if I live in Spanish or Portuguese Australia. I hope it's Spanish because Portuguese is a nightmare language... Pesadelo pronounced Wushwoshoww (probably).

Also, Cristiano Ronaldo is a Trump-adjacent, Saudi-shilling prick.

Dubai chocolate is just praline made with pistachios. Weird.

My review of Italy:

Rome is just too much. Milan is a French city displaced to Italy.

I read that as 'makes me something of an apostrophe'.

There's an 'inverted' joke here somewhere but I can't quite reach it.
