We shared a large Haddock and large chips last night from the chippy opposite West Worthing station, the Haddock was a bit small for " large " but masses of chips for £9.50. We don't bother with the miserly portions of Mushy peas they give you, we just open a can from the cupboard..
In a...
By the sound of things on Twitter things are starting to happen. Lots of small exploratory advances by Ukraine..they are feeling out the Russians and looking for weaknesses.
Lots of disinformation being bandied about in order to keep the Russki's on edge, uncertain and scared. I think that they are still in the " Mud Season " currently that makes vehicle movements tricky. I'm sure Ukraine want to get started asap with taking back lost territory but they have to be...
I suppose that tonight's show for Chuck#3 has maintained a link to a Royal tradition that stretches back hundreds of years. It used to be hangings, burning at stakes or being quartered, its a little less bloody these days but they're still dying tonight onstage for the King.
You can add the fact that there were no council votes in London this time around. Equally, lots of council voting focuses on local issues and a huge number of independent candidates that split the vote.
There are very few independent candidates at a GE with a hope and this will coalesce and...
I think that these results have to take in to account the rise in awareness of tactical voting. They may not be hugely spectacular gains for Labour or the Lib-Dems but the general trend is to attrit Tory numbers. We have to add the rise of Independant councillors too. At this level of politics a...
Tory denial is manifesting on many levels today. Heard a wonderful Tory voter on 5Live say that "The Tories have got us through Covid, the Ukraine war and the energy crisis " !!!!! If what has happened to our once great country while " Getting Through " is actually getting through, you can...
Why start April 9th then leave a two week gap to the next championship match ? The Sussex v Durham game could have been played a week later for starters. Poor old Pujara must have so many jumpers on he must look like the Michelin Man ?
I used to be 52/42% Pro Royals but this oath swearing leaves me a bit uncomfortable. Being a ruler used to be a two way street, the people swear allegiance to the King/Queen and the King/Queen is supposed to be benevolent towards the populace and to rule " Justly " and fairly. But, we are...
Give your head a wobble, you are talking football here. If we continue to fall away as we have recently and we lose the first 6 matches of next season he's probably toast. Yes, great manager, would love to have him here ( as a mostly successful manager ) for 20 years but it really isn't going...
Tis indeed the once much saluted and celebrated " Fridat "..... It does seem to have fallen in to abeyance recently but not in Vegster Towers where I have just broached my 2nd litre bottle of Goldmark APA.
