It's goodbye to Moriarty.
2011-2024.
He was a good friend.
A black cat is sitting on a floor, near a door. He looks straight at the camera. A black cat, sitting at the end of a bed on a yellow duvet cover, is sticking his tongue out at the photographer. He looks very chilled.

Alas, I just handed in the bag without any of my contact details. I suspect it's now at the TfL lost property office

I was talking about Stuart Boam in the pub before the Boro-Wrexham about 10 days ago. I even did the little chant "Six foot 2 and eyes of blue..." Before my time but I knew he was a legend and captain during the Charlton era.
RIP

The online baying mob shouting "Vote Reform" after Saturday's train stabbing attack may wish to note that not a single Reform MP has turned up for the Home Secretary's statement on the incident.

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Is drinking hemlock or an asp to the breast the quickest method of death?

Hi @londonreviewbookshop.co.uk could you share this. A customer of yours has lost their LRB bookshop haul.

If anyone lost a bag of books from LRB Bookshop on the Metropolitan Line between Baker St- Watford, I handed it to a cleaner when the train terminated at Watford tube station. And if you have far more followers than me, please share this status. LRB bookshop is not cheap!

I'm at Watford watching Boro perform poorly. Losing 2-0. Due to our incompetence. Sure, the ref is shite but we made the goals easy for them. Need an early goal just to lift the team and fans.

I'm recalling the 80s moniker of "Randy Andy" and how that is now nauseating
