Talking to M about needing to get my Barbour waxed and she said that I ought to be able to take it into a Barbour shop and Oxford must have one - I said surely they must have 4 - not even a snigger !! Iโ€™m wasted on this audience !!

Unpopular opinion : people who complain about โ€œinconsistencyโ€ in rugby refs ought to be banned from talking about rugby. Refโ€™s are human; you will never get total consistency; most laws require interpretation; laws are applied to each situation and every one of those is slightly different. Go away!

According to my fitness thingy itโ€™s amazing what a combination of Newcastle Brown Ale and live rockabilly music can do for your cardio load - I could have told it that for free !!๐Ÿคฃ

My wife, who doesnโ€™t do politics, but did used to do teaching Primary, was shocked at the behaviour of Trump & Vance; canโ€™t understand why Trump is allowed to get away with this without being challenged or stopped nor why Americans would continue to support the toxic childish narcissistic bully ๐Ÿ˜ณ

M came in and said โ€œis this going to be worth watchingโ€ and then was really glad she watched. My one concern is that they push on from this and I donโ€™t have as much fun in Cardiff as I was expecting !

๐Ÿ’งMake Thames Water lose its licence so that billpayers can get an affordable service, and our rivers, lakes and beaches can be clean again.

First time to Bletchley Park yesterday - superb day and loads more there than I expected; itโ€™s been the usual โ€œitโ€™s so near we can always do that next weekโ€ so taken years to get round to going and wish Iโ€™d not waited so long

Anyone else not prepared to trust that Tango Gibbon can make a deal thatโ€™s worth consideration and heโ€™ll just try to bully everyone into the shit he creates before oozing away to ruin somebody elseโ€™s life?

and yet theyโ€™ll come back to it along with other stupid ideas about helping first time buyers that only stoke prices and make the position of first time bought that much more unstable - everything looks like a nail

Trump does not respect bootlickers like Nigel Farage . Standing up to Trump is the only way to make a deal with him.

Seriously, who cares? Why is he so delusional as to believe people will care, other than the small vocal minority on social media for whom Trump, Musk, Farage et al are wonderful talented heroes rather than the narcissistic, bullies that they are in reality?

There is no special relationship - other than in the mind of too many Uk politicians. The choice is do exactly what we are told or have the US turn around and shaft us when they want to. Forget any special relationship and prepare your defence for when Tango Gibbon decides he want to flex his ego

It's been a long time since Private Eye's satire has made me audibly wince, but this is so to the point if it were a knife people would demand it be banned.

At what point are we going to admit that Thame Water, and indeed water privatisation where there can be no effective competition, is a failed experiment?

After 11 years service as a stable cat it looks as though Oscar has decided to retire. Turned up at the house yesterday in daughterโ€™s car and, unlike when we had him at home to recover from an accident, shows no desire to leave this time
