Ave Watford really got a player called βOh Mammaβ.

Just back at my parentsβ place and seen theyβve got rid of the home phone.

BBC are getting a bit ahead of themselves with this story categorisation.

20.11.2025 15:54 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I agree. He explained things well and took responsibility. You can have the opinion he should be sacked β fine. But I don't think he could have handled these interviews much better and all we can do now is get behind the new set-up.

I know thereβs a lot of fuss atm about deforestation, but Iβve just been to the Amazon and itβs literally filled with trees.

Well, i hope you enjoyed my holiday experience all the same.
I went to Kazakhstan this year. Fantastic experience. Well worth exploring if you have time!

It is also a good example of how little people here know about Europe. One person thought Putin was the leader of Germany.
And tbf, why should they care? Most people in Europe think Suriname is in Africa.
Itβs not the first time Iβve heard something like that. Itβs either crap like that or how dangerous London is.
London has a PR problem. All the shit on social media, Elon, Trump and Farage, are having a sad impact.
We got chatting about London one day and he said βah itβs a shame London has become such a horrible placeβ. I said βwhat, how?β
βYour mayor! Youβll have shariah law in a year, Iβm telling youβ.
Heβd never visited London and lived on the other side of the world with a dodgy internet connection.
Iβve spent the past week in a remote part of the Amazon rainforest in Suriname. The bloke that ran the place we were staying is about 60, Surinamese, warm and friendly, and lives in this remote part of the jungle.
