@bbc5live first thing this morning. Car stops on a pelican crossing to allow elderly passenger to alight. Passenger then stood in traffic lane trying to cross,not on pedestrian part of the crossing and the lights were green for traffic. Parking available 20 metres away😩
I think I’m going back to #OlympicGamesParis2024 coverage to #bcfc tonight, at least when my team comes second it’s a result to cheer…hold on a minute #penalty
Donald Trump:

@bbc5live@NickyAACampbell There are two parts to the “compensation” question that don’t seem to be separated in discussion
1) return the sub postmaster’s own ££ used to balance the errors caused by Horizon i.e. theft by PO
2) compensation for damage done to lives as a result of action by the PO

Michael Heseltine points out how Johnson has manipulated public debate away from facing embarrassment of censure.
“Typical Boris! He is unprincipled and dishonest. He will say whatever he needs to to win the argument of the moment. This is the huge tragedy of #Brexit bc that is the biggest historic mistake any govt has made in 50 yrs and Boris used these techniques to achieve it.”

I’m not planning on watching #MOTD tonight.
The perfect alternative would be #BBCiplayer and the sixth episode of #WildIsles which #BBC are too cowed to permit on live broadcast as it also contains #opinions but it’s only reached the trailer stage.😞
@bbc5live hey Clare,Tony
Been enjoying METAL since I was about 13.
I can remember the moment in 1977ish when I heard Black Sabbath eponymous album and was immediately hooked.
Also heard Jean Michel Jarre Oxygene at same listening session, also enjoying eletronic since.
@Tim_Burgess Inspiral Carpets (1988ish) at Manchester Uni Students Union (Solem Bar) supporting The James Taylor Quartet.
Festivals are great for discovering new music, “support band” might stretch the definition, Stevie Ray Vaughan at Reading 1983 and Peatbog Faeries at Cropredy in 2013
