    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    Yes but what are labour going to do about it? The Tories' tactic for the next year or so will not be to defend their record (because it is indefensible except to the most blinkered Gammons or Daily Mail readers), but to spread lies, misinformation and scare-stories about what a Labour...

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    Sadly a lot of Tory voters will believe that this is true, such is their gullibility or mendacity, and visceral hatred of Labour.

    [Finance] Premium Bonds - prize pool increased again - you ever have any luck?

    £25 for me this month, and £50 for Mrs Peteinblack (we both have the maximum holdings). Both a little disappointed TBH, although we obviously realise that we should be grateful for any win, and that our 'meagre' winnings this month would still be a small fortune to people living in poverty. So...

    [Albion] Chelsea odds on tomorrow.

    I'm expecting us to lose tomorrow, sadly, given that we have so many 'regular' players injured, and Captain Dunk is banned for two games.

    [Albion] How many Premier League points will we pick up in December?

    With our injuries and suspensions, I've gone for a Scrooge-like 5 points - 1 x win and 2 x draws. We'll be mid-table by New Year, although I hope we'll recover from January as some of our injured players return, and we might make one or two signings to strengthen our depleted squad.

    [Music] Shane Macgowan RIP

    Oh, no - and the same week as Geordie Walker (Killing Joke) passed away. Last week, it was Mars Williams, sax player with the Psychedelic Furs.

    [Misc] Phrases you hate people saying

    Ah, a kindred spirit. Whenever I hear someone say "Can I get a lager/coffee/burger", I wish the person serving could say "No, you can't, but I'll get one for you."

    [Misc] Phrases you hate people saying

    "People shouldn't have kids if they can't afford them." Most people probably can afford their kids when they have them, but circumstances change, disasters occur, people's incomes might be reduced through no fault of their own, their spouse might have to give-up work due to serious illness or...

    [News] Kevin ‘Geordie’ Walker RIP

    How tragically apposite that the last track on their last album was called 'Into The Unknown', and is, I think, one of their best tracks/riffs.

    [News] Kevin ‘Geordie’ Walker RIP

    Jeez, I'm genuinely shocked and saddened. One of my fave guitarists. Totally original sound, a Master of sludgy riffs, often with sinister or doomy apocalyptic sound; criminally underrated.

    [Misc] What Book are you Currently Reading?

    Just finished Peter James' Dead Man's Footsteps - No. 4 in the Roy Grace detective series set in Brighton (the TV series features the brilliant John Simm as Grace). Have now started Matthew Kneale's Sweet Thames - his English Passengers being one of my favourite books.
