Another win for football
Looking forward to giving this paper (alongside also being nervous af 🫠)
Loved it. Top stuff.
I know who Terry Fox was. Top man indeed!
Remember having to watch the film when a double P.E class got rained off at school. Amazing story!
Not since Ballotelli have we had such comic gold.
Fantastic! What a dominant win!
Semeyno and Cherki brilliant. LFC defense could just not cope with Haaland.
Outstanding! Really thrilled about this.

Pep's Spanglish is up there with Cervantes tbf.

Was lucky enough to have met him a couple of months ago in Bolton. What a lovely man.
Indeed, there was one posted above and inside the front door of every single Irish house. Seemingly ornamental, like old hunting rifles, in truth, ready for smiting at any moment.
We're being sued for libel by a London businessman who thinks he can bully us into taking down a @londonermag.bsky.social story about him. He's wrong!
Please read and share.

Saddened to hear this. RIP Gladys West.
Has to be one of the least well-known and most influential people ever.
Someone who affects our lives every single day.
Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.
Outstanding! Next time..
HAWT!
Thanks Chris!
