@hejwych @nicole_wc I predict.....

The fine will double.

True, I have much higher expectations of the England captain, than the Pope.

[Eric Idle @EricIdle]

I shall not be watching the Second Test against New Zealand. If you can’t get shit faced after taking five wickets and beating New Zealand when can you? These are adult athletes. The England cricket captain is not the Pope. Now they must be stalked by journalists who are themselves not famous for their sobriety? Disgusting.

@EricIdle But I paid for the 63 year feud.

@LucyTCWife strong, is the sarcasm, in this one.

[David Roberts @oraclebigdave]

@Pete20221 @JensonButton Blind!

@StormBlueHull @KingBobIIV There is also the northern rock approach, go slow at the tellers desks, although they'd have to throttle the online options too now.

OTOH, didn't Ireland survive a year long bank strike?

[David Roberts @oraclebigdave]

@chrisandmarkuk Yes, but he's a plumber. Plumbers get elected! Bet he's training to be a plasterer too.

@GoodwinMJ But was your father a toolmaker?

@labisiffre I think GDP per capita is more useful, and environmentalism makes such discussions tasteless anyway.

@straczynski I don't think TardiShire is actually a real county. (Unless it's one of the old ones in Wales, like MontgomeryShire.)

@KonstantinKisin New south park episode. With live watchalong?

[David Roberts @oraclebigdave]

@afneil He'll have his revenge. At the next election most will lose their seats.

@jk_rowling Are you wearing contact lenses advertising your latest book?

Shameless.

[David Roberts @oraclebigdave]

@JamesBlunt No newspaper for proof?

These pictures could be from 2024.

@jk_rowling She says so much with her eyes.

[David Roberts @oraclebigdave]

@jk_rowling I'd have preferred if you claimed never to have handcuffed a man to a wall, and beaten him with chains, rather than just not being prosecuted for it.

[David Roberts @oraclebigdave]

@HazelAppleyard_ As opposed to an unliteral van, aliteral, antiliteral? What would you call a van that wasn't a van?

[David Roberts @oraclebigdave]

@jk_rowling I don't think they mean that sort of novel.
