I have a beard, drink real ale, and listen to real music. I don't wear sandals. Up the Boro

@AndyLeRock I saw Saxon twice the same day when they toured this. They did a matinee performance for under 18s and then a full over 18 show in the evening. 46 years ago yesterday at Middlesbrough Rock Garden. I was 16.

Charlotte Church sang From the River to the Sea at a fundraising event for Palestinians and now all the usual people are screaming antisemitism and trying to cancel her.

RT if you stand with Charlotte Church and Palestine.

@cosmograf Royal Mail are a complete nightmare. I gave up trying to claim for a parcel to Canada that got lost. They just blamed Canada Post and fobbed me off even though my "contract" was with them. A hospital letter posted to my daughter in Nov last year was finally delivered last week!

@SoundsClips @thedamned @LongLiveTheJam I love the sub Headline "Hawkwind will struggle on" - for another 49 years and counting!

@RockCandyMag Dancing with the Moonlit Knight. Everything good about that line-up codensed into a single song.

@fruitsdemer One of the band is a friend of my daughter. I bought their debut single because of that and my immediate thought was why aren't this band on fruits de mer?

@SaulStaniforth @0Calamity Didn't the Supreme Court rule last year that punishment for taking Industrial Action is unlawful?

@BritainElects Er....the By-Election was held because thr sitting Labour Councillor died.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Just a reminder that Reform’s former Leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, has admitted taking bribes from Russia while an MEP.

Yet Reform spokespeople have suggested their leaders didn't really know Gill.

So here's a few pictures of him with Nigel Farage.

@primarily_prog I still shudder at the memory of them playing it live.

[Boro Hippie @HippBoro]

@primarily_prog I'm hoping for a bit more Steve and a little less Genesis. Although it would be fun if he did his take on a few post Wind & Wuthering tunes.

[Boro Hippie @HippBoro]

@GraemeBandeira @Boro Is there a new media team? They really are doing a great job reconnecting with the fans.
