She dominated US women's tennis before WWI, winning 45 titles (+2 Olympic gold & 1 Wimbledon). She founded the Wightman Cup (UK/US competition, 1923-1989) to generate international interest in women's #tennis.

Merry gentlefolk, it is time.

Today is the day.

Today is comma-mas.

Today is the day where we contemplate the correct placing of the comma in 'God rest you merry, gentlemen'.

And if we are lucky, we can have a row about it.

My #sourdough game is coming on nicely. This is a white flour loaf with a dark rye sourdough starter, baked in a ceramic cloche to help with the rise and the crust development.

That slippery shit pipe Farage has grubby finger prints on all of this. When is everyone going to see him for the self serving traitor that he is. He needs his feet holding to the fire and his "career" ending once and for all. Up to his neck in it.

The Reform UK-led council in Kent shows exactly what a Reform UK government would look like.

David Lammy: "Reform said that Kent County Council would be the best advert for what a Reform government would look like.

"They're delivering on the chaos that they promised."

I sometimes wonder whether Kinnock would be better suited to politics today than in the 80s. His media advisors tried to squeeze out his warmth, humour, anger & willingness to speak his mind, whereas there's a hunger for those things now. Even the mass rally is back, & he's made for the podcast age.

this high quality gag came from someone who is also here but as he hasn’t posted it himself I assume he doesn’t want to be tagged to share in the glory
