I’d forgotten Estrella Damm is 5.4% when you’re in Spain 🤪😴

The media at the time of the incident tried to tell us he was a lovely family man. Now we’re reading he’d bit the ear off a sailor in a bar room brawl.

Why would Welsh people vote for English nationalists?

Poor effort. I’m 77 !

No, it was dead hard today. 688 for me, possibly an all time low.

And we’re meant to be celebrating the centenary of Thatcher’s birth! The root cause of much of what is wrong with this country.

Forgotten classic

A one off! Hence sharing it.

Many years ago, late 90s, I was being shown around a house in higher Beb by the seller who waited until the end of the tour to deliver what he thought was the clincher- ‘this house used to belong to Patricia Routledge’ - unimpressed, we didn’t buy it.

Great top 5 singles, but Big Fun at 6??? Are they trying to be funny or was it genuinely thought bought to be a classic?

I can think of one person who’ll make the effort 😉

The trains were off earlier. Broken down train under the river. Hope it’s sorted.

I’m new to this. 693 today, my best from 3 attempts but sadly 8 points short of victory in the household

Magnificent stuff, great research, I’m glad you’re not wasting your leisure time.
