Part of the Great Migration - now fully TwiX free!
Follower of Doctor Who, Blackburn Rovers, Hancock, Laurel & Hardy, Pre2000 Marvel, LibDems, Ogrons, Mr Benn and various obscure things.
For what it's worth, really enjoyed The War Between.

"But, but Doctor Who has gone woke" ... suck it up idiots - it's always commenting on the world and it's ills.

As much as sequel to The Green Death as the Sea Devils. And great to see the return of the pompous self important politician.

We had a Magic Faraway Tree growing near the Base a few years ago!
Unfortunately so many Ogrons PEED up it, that it DIED and fell over!
Me still haunted by the pitiful SCREAMS of the fairy folk who lived in it as it plummeted to the ground. 😢🧚🧚‍♂️🧚‍♀️

For the World Cup draw, instead of balls with names in, how about using a dulux colour chart and matching parts of Trumps face and hair with it to reveal the relevant country?

How many of those who are complaining about minimum wage and national living wage rises are the same people who campaigned for Brexit and lower immigration as they were suppressing wages in the UK?

Or was that just a convenient (and nonsensical) excuse as per usual?

According to the BBC... "The Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said becoming part of the UK is "not a right but a privilege - and one that must be earned". "

Might as well shift out 50% of the existing population then.

I watched the Wales match on TV. I watched the Scotland match on tablet.

14 goals over the 2 games with a third of them being stunning.

What a great night of football.

I'm an Englishman watching Scotland in a Welsh hotel. Should I swap my Danish beer for a Guinness?

Not the first to make this point. But there is a tyrant in charge of another country who is accused of being heavily linked to a paedophile sex ring - and supposed ‘patriots’ in this country are passionately willing him to take down our national broadcaster. Madness.

Somehow I doubt over 80000 people would be refreshing Denmark vs Belarus in usual circumstances.

Balanced & reasonable assessment of why Disney likely cut ties with Doctor Who. No knee-jerk, reactionary polar views from fandom or the Daily Heil's reporting.

Signing the deal at the peak of streaming expansion before the bubble burst is particularly interesting.

So brilliant in everything and in later life so dignified in facing up her dementia with her sadly departed equally wonderful husband Timothy West.

Great to wake up to Halloween music and a quick overview of childhood terrors on 5Live with @scarredforlife.bsky.social

Nothing beats having traumas relived to start the day! 🤣

But... Skippy?!

PS I've never been able to sleep in a room with a ticking clock since summer 79 in case it stopped...

Well this made me smile. Then again two supermarkets ribbing each other on socials makes me smile.

Just visited a church in Prague.

I was a little surprised to see that before he moved to Devil's End, a certain renegade was putting a shift in here.

Seems quite fitting listening to the second volume of @bigfinish.bsky.social V series whilst travelling between Germany & Poland on a Holocaust / WW2 tour.

Great stuff from @eddierobson.bsky.social et al under the watchful eye of @jonnymorris.bsky.social

When's volume 3 coming? 😀

I'm guessing using a washing machine for cooking might be possible for a very watery soup or cleaning salad, but wouldn't want to try a baked potato or a Sunday Roast.

1) Deport individuals who've been here the years & set high income requirements for others.

2) See exodus of workers in care & health sectors.

3) Claim NHS is now a total failure.

4) Move to insurance based system.

5) Make millions from US contracts at the cost of UK citizens' well-being.

One for #DoctorWho fans.

Batley town centre is being revamped and apparently will be paying homage to the David Tennant story "Army of Ghosts".
