@Madz_Grant @TimesRadio Nobody “deserves” respect - it needs to be earned.

@TheDoorRestorer Great thread! 🤣

@daveatherton @JuliaHB1 It’s really not that difficult: Fit In of Fuck Off. #FIFO

@TrooperSnooks Apparently the average MP costs £300k per annum, so how many MPs would we need to get rid of to cover the SFI budget?

Amidst all the bad news and depressing posts on X, there is the odd gem!

I was having a chat with a pal of mine last night about Saturday evening television in the 1980's and, perhaps inevitably, Stan Boardman's 1986 appearance on Des O'Connor tonight came up. 

Remember Fokker-gate?

It's the definition of a legendary TV moment really, specifically because of the chaos it caused both during and after a live broadcast. Indeed, Stan was all but banned from appearing on live TV for a considerable amount of time afterwards.

It's a great bit of TV!

Happy Friday Eve. Come on, almost there!

@TrooperSnooks A bit like the rest of Suffolk then 😅

@TrooperSnooks There must be an evolutionary reason for this: is it reinforcing migration waypoints? calibrating their magnetic compasses? It’s not like fish shoaling to defend against predators (unless some primeval fear has been reawakened by A380s)

@TrooperSnooks I’ve plenty of suckers and have been thinking of pruning them to single stems and opening a pick your own shillelagh shop in a couple of years. They’ll be the must have accessory for a man around town by then!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas 🎅

@TrooperSnooks I quite like the empirical approach: as a 7 year old in the mid-70s I wondered what would happen if I pushed all the buttons on a tv at the same time. Turned out the Radio Rentals chap had to replace the tv and my parents were not best pleased. 🙄

@TrooperSnooks Nice baubles!

[John Adams @adams_john]

@TrooperSnooks I really hate the whole party politics bollocks: MPs should be there to represent their constituents and not be tied to what some career minded arsehole wants. 🤬😤🤬

@TrooperSnooks Hopefully repeatedly while barefoot and it’s cranked up to 11!

Surtees. Not only one of England's greatest writers but also something of a rustic Mystic Meg. Coming soon on @scribehound_ctr
