Many years ago, I was at a Oldham Athletic game at Boundary Park. Norman Collier was special guest in the announcer's office. Yes he did the malfunctioning microphone routine.

Couldn't agree more.

He has a team of bookers who do these things? So not one of them thought "After all the nazi stuff, the rabid antisemitism, merchandise and even a song, perhaps we should book someone else."

The mother of all cringes!

Brilliant news!

“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”

The badger?

A picture of a

Well I'm flabbergasted!

I see Farage is off to Mar-a-Lago to talk down Britain and suck up to Trump.

There's nothing patriotic about cheering on a foreign leader whose illegal war is sending British families’ energy bills through the roof.

No way. I bet Sam Allardyce is being appointed. 😃

Rising alarm from who? The Daily Heil? Reform UK Ltd? Daily Torygraph? The Sunday Scum? 🙄

I know. Terrible isn't it? 😄

Well that aged well. #war

Neil Sedaka, songwriter to the stars for decades, dies at 86 Sedaka, who was also a performer himself, penned such hits as "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do," "Happy Birthday, Sweet Sixteen" and "Love Will Keep Us Together."

So sad to learn of Neil Sedaka’s death. Castles in the Air was a really important song to my dad musically and lyrically.

And a happy Twin Peaks day!

Still gives me shivers. #mrjames
