About a dozen jackdaws have descended on my feeders, particularly the suet ones, and I’m looking from my kitchen window feeling like a bit like Tippi Hedren #birdsky #gardensky #filmsky #TheBirds

Given that Trump has promised the release of his comprehensive healthcare plan was 2 weeks away for about 10 years then this doesn’t bode very well…

He is able to hone in like a heat seeking missile on a message or policy that pisses off the maximum number of people.

The proponents of this Blut und Boden bullshit in the 30s had their arses handed to them by Scouse dockers + at the Battle of Cable Street. Now they are welcomed on to every news channel at every opportunity to spew their filth.

Refugee status becomes temporary in asylum shake-up Adults and accompanied children claiming asylum will only receive refugee status for 30 months under the changes.

Abysmal, immoral, cruel, small hearted, tiny minded, ineffective, undemocratic, and just generally utterly indecent. What a bitter godforesaken disappointment these people are.

Yep. Do what they said they would do. Every corner is like a scrum these days and it’s a coin toss if anything is done about it

Every single corner in their games it happens. Seems a long time since the beginning of the season when they said they were cracking down on grappling

Just need to acclimatise yourself to lots of rain and remember the letter u belongs in lots of words and you’re welcome (I’m sure that warrant from James II for your forebears has been forgotten)

Mary Berry's easy Bakewell tart recipe For those that only like a little icing, Mary's stripped down version of the classic Bakewell tart will be a hit at tea time.

Recipe:
I used a 9inch flan dish so increase the filling ingredients by 50% and I’ll increase cooking time accordingly ( us usually by cooking for 35 mins then checking every 5 minutes after until cooked)

Why have different rules? The striker has such an advantage, especially when they allow those annoying stuttering runs, then I think they should only get one shot at it

Personally I think that penalty shootout rules should count for all penalties. Saved shots should count as a miss end of with no rebounds allowed

Watching the Sky News coverage you’d be forgiven in thinking that the Ayatollah was the only Iranian death in the conflict thus far
