So is this where we start plummeting down the table again? #TOTMNU #THFC

Surely it has to be Alan Carr who will win the #CelebrityTraitors. Heโ€™s been very good, and rather devious!

What is it with this whole 67 business? Do young people think itโ€™s the meaning of life or something?

Surely they must realise that The Answer is actually 42? ๐Ÿ˜‚ #SixSeven

This was a thankfully and impressively rapid response by the railway staff and the emergency services. As I mentioned in my previous post, the speed of this response saved lives.

The train driver and first responders should be honoured for their bravery in this frightening situation. #Huntingdon

My thoughts are with the victims and witnesses of the #Huntingdon train attack yesterday. What they went through must surely have been terrifying.

The driverโ€™s quick decision to divert the train into Huntingdon station saved lives. He and the first responders deserve medals for their bravery.

The thing is that you could say this about many other activities. Finishing a long book, completing a large jigsaw puzzle, watching an epic TV series. Yes, you may not learn anything tangible, but that doesnโ€™t mean it isnโ€™t worthwhile. Why shouldnโ€™t people engage in hobbies in their spare time?

Andrew stripped of 'prince' title and will move out of Royal Lodge He will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor - Buckingham Palace says

My name is Andrew, and I am not a prince. Therefore, I now have as much of a claim to the title of Prince Andrew as the ex-Prince Andrew does. ๐Ÿ˜„

At least 40 dead in Haiti as Hurricane Melissa leaves nearly 80% of Jamaica without power โ€” LBC At least 40 people have died on the island of Haiti as Hurricane Melissa continues to cause devastation in the Caribbean.

I would like to offer my sympathies to the people in Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti and across the Caribbean who have lost friends and loved ones in #HurricaneMelissa.

GTA Vice City is a fantastic game, and the soundtrack was indeed splendid.

The scary thing is that the gameโ€™s release is now much closer in time to the year it was set (1986, if I remember correctly) than it is to now!

I spent many hours of my teenage years playing on my #PS2. It had fantastic games and was a very powerful console for its day.

It was indeed legendary, without a doubt.

This is a lovely word that we should reintroduce into English. I think we could all do with some apricity at the moment! ๐Ÿ˜€

Iโ€™m amused by the fact that Trump is even beaten by William Henry Harrison, who was only president for a month (and was ill for much of that month too!). ๐Ÿ˜„

See White House demolition in East Wing to build new ballroom Construction workers demolished the facade of the East Wing of the White House on Monday, Oct. 20. Photos captured the historic scene.

What #Trump is doing to the #WhiteHouse is obscene. Iโ€™m imagining the uproar that would occur here in the UK if, letโ€™s say, King Charles decided to demolish half of Buckingham Palace to build a bizarre ballroom extension.

Maybe there should be a campaign to use diacritics more often in English. People wouldnโ€™t call eateries โ€œcaffsโ€ if the โ€œcafรฉโ€ spelling was enforced, for example.

Iโ€™m coming back from a short social media break to ask this: are there any words in the English language that need an accented letter more than segue? Surely it should be spelt seguรฉ? ๐Ÿค”

Indeed, the way that word is pronounced makes it homophonic with Segway, the two-wheeled mobility device.

I welcome the announcement from the Prime Minister that the UK now recognises the Palestinian state.
 
This is a significant and important step that sets out our intended future relationship with the Middle East โ€“ one where there is a secure Israel and Palestinian state, including Gaza and the West Bank under the control of Palestinians.
 
However, there can be no two-state solution if there is no viable state left to call Palestine.
 
The horrific and ongoing killing of so many innocent civilians in Gaza is appalling and heartbreaking, and this intentional destruction of Palestinian life in Gaza cannot go on. There must be an immediate return to a ceasefire.
 
Hostages held in appalling conditions must be released without delay, much needed aid let in and the people of Gaza should be able to return to what is left of their homes and start rebuilding their shattered lives.
