Cartographer, full-time north-easterner, SAFC, James the Band, Doctor Who, old telly, beer, football etc. Chairman of a football club, no really. Has a knackered back. A walking corpse that won’t play dead.

Graeme Harper obviously did, but I l’ve been pondering if there were any people who chucked the job in as a result or just didn’t take to it…
I’ve been watching The Bill from the start. My favourite scenes by far are those involving Brownlow and Conway.
No, YOU shut up.

Tomatoes don’t have blood.
Although I suspect that Count Duckula would probably go for this.
Sinister lines in music No.1:

The way the band is getting together in Riot Women seems very contrived.

12.10.2025 19:32 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I think another thing important thing that has been lost too is rehearsal. Now it’s all rehearse-record. There are the same amount of hours in a day, yet the entire rehearsal process has been dispensed with.
I’ve been watching Nine Bodies too, and the first thing I thought was that’s like ‘Kinda’.
If you’ve in any way appreciated all of the TOP QUALITY comedy content that I’ve supplied tonight, then I don’t want you to buy me a coffee.
But it would be lovely if you’d consider signing up to help out my football team when you shop. It costs you NOTHING. Thank you.
