As we all look back at #LiveAid40, I would like to tell the story of my experience as a 20yo attending the Wembley show on 13 July 1985. These are never-before seen photos, taken on my Canon A1 with a 50mm lens from my position centre front in the crowd

@pauleagles All I want is to drink tea, eat toast, and resume my little program for a few minutes to finally escape the dreck of the working week. Can't even have that. I'm not going to sit and watch something now the tea and toast is finished. Madness. Still, they got their (muted) ad views
Is there a known glitch in the Channel 4 app where it only plays adverts? Resumed watching something & it started instantly, rewound a few minutes to catch up again & ads kicked in. Finished tea & toast and they were still running. Restarted entire console and it's still just ads
@tinycharlotte72 I rewound past a couple of the ad break lines, so maybe it stacks them for each one you cross. 😄 It finally kicked in to the program after about 10 minutes... to the point I tried to rewind from. 🤦
FYI, if you grab a pot of M&S or Waitrose hummus they still have the plastic lids, and they fit the Tesco and Sainsburys equivalents that now have film instead. Sincerely, a hummus fiend who gets it wherever he can.
Whoever made the executive decision that all coleslaws, dips and the like should no longer have proper lids, only a peel back plastic film, deserves a firm kick in the bollocks.
I swear after playing computer games on controllers with triggers and shoulder buttons for more than two decades, I could still not hand on heart say which was R1 and which was R2. Nor will I ever learn. Just bumbling through games quickdrawing pistols instead of grabbing ropes.
