And again that narrow-minded assumption that people who abhor Johnson on moralistic grounds are by default Labour voters, or ‘lefties’ as you so eloquently put it.
He could play whiff waff against the original Blond Bonking Boris on Wimbledon Centre Court and invite along all the women he’s cheated on, had kids with, abortions with and generally denigrated down the years to watch from the royal box.
Marvellous scenes.
When a mate and I crossed America in in 1990, at every Greyhound bus terminal we stopped at we’d head straight for the arcade, him onto Miss Pacman me onto Galaga.
A few years ago I bought one of those cheap handheld retro games consoles (£5 on Ebay) with 200 games on it. Best. Purchase...
What always impressed me was how he seemed to speak Spanish like a native, complete with the right speech inflexions. Someone better versed in the language will probably correct me, but to my ignorant ear it sounded spot on.
Baggy shorts and no Lycra or shaven legs or road bike here. At what point did you think that a serious post? You sound more aggressive at your keyboard than the cyclists you’re trying to stereotype.
Similarly all these Covid-19 cyclists that have been clogging up the cycle paths and roads these last six or so weeks. Either do it all year round or piss off and get out of the way of those of us that do.
I struggle to think of any high street brand that isn’t exploiting cheap third world labour (Infinity Foods possibly excepted). Even ‘top end’ brand The North Face, mentioned on this thread, has been highlighted as using sweatshops in El Salvador and Bangladesh.

Blighty’s long-standing film critic, but imho he seems to rate many films that are utter gash. Obviously it’s a subjective sport, but what do NSC’s resident film buffs make of his selections (currently a regular BBC homepage fixture)?
Indeed, tan now, pay later. Factor 30 all day everyday, especially when standing outside in a supermarket queue, although being a floral bucket hat and sunglasses kind of guy my fizzog is always well shielded.
With NK you’ll never know. If a couple if NK hitmen haven’t already taken this guy out, maybe they’ll offer him a job pretending to be the Dear fat boy.
In vaguely related news, we have a woman called Valerie in our office and whenever she arrives at work a select bunch of us idiots all sing the Ride of The Valkyries (Valeries) theme in rising crescendo.
Three quarters of the way through Michelle Obama’s excellent autobiography. A well-written, inspirational, fascinating and thought-provoking read, even if, like me, you have little interest in US politics..
My fiction fix alongside that - ‘Endangered’ by C.J. Box.
