Editor of 'Dorney Parish News'. Homesick blues & radical views on Dorney, Chelsea, history etc Views my own, not 'Dorney Parish News' which is fiercely neutral.
Join the queue, as it were, for complaints about the @britishmuseum booking system for Bayeux. I was in at 12.30, at the very start, told 3 minute wait. Wow, that's good I thought. Reached site on time, no entry, put back in a queue, still waiting two and half hours later.
@dcsandbrook@SatbeerS49237@AVFCOfficial@Wolves Actually an episode on just why between the end of the war and the UK entry to the European Cup Soviet sides like Spartak and Moscow Dynamo were held in such veneration by English football - I think Wolves played one or other with enormous crowds - would be interesting.
@bbctms I can remember the very first TMS was from Edgebaston, the first test against West Indies in 1957. In similar dire straits, Peter May and Colin Cowdrey added 411, May 285 no and Cowdrey 154. Ramadhin bowled a record 78(?) overs.
@JamieBowman77 What a week for the Bowman family. Peter, Jamie, plus great uncle Herbert and grandad Arthur get a mention in the Cambridge United supporters club fanzine because of historical connections.
The best father's day present arrived six years ago and we've gone from this to this - massive thanks and love to @DrRamanaCardiac who saved Dylan's life and everyone at @AlderHey - he had a wonderful birthday today and it's all down to you guys...
Is “2k more tax “
the new
“350 million NHS “bus slogan .
Doesn’t need to be right. Just needs to be repeated .
Have we come so little way since the grubby days of that campaign ??
All you need to know about Private Schools is that children who go to Eton pay only £50,000 for an entire year, fully catered and housed.
Without any tax breaks Eton would have to charge at least £120,000 a year.
You are paying £70,000 every year per child for their education.
@dcsandbrook@TheRestHistory Shame that the film ‘Night to Remember’ not referenced. Spellbinding to a 10 year old c1958. Suppose @holland_tom can’t do Kenneth Moore, surely the ultimate expression of the ‘British’ chap
The passing of Benjamin Zephaniah on the very day Suella Braverman and her band of ultra right freaks are causing their usual divisive havoc is a great reminder of why Britain needs far more Zephaniahs and far fewer Bravermans in its public life.
He, the best of us. She, not.
@JamieBowman77@bt_uk@tntsports@SkyUK Perhaps they could clarify what we do in the same situation, but this time it’s our conversion to Sky Q from Sky Plus. Not tried @bt_uk but @SkyHelpTeam seem unable to clarify details of our new contract.
Starmer wrote in the Express that he will not restore Freedom of Movement.
Please retweet if you want our Freedom of Movement restored.
We were robbed of our right to live, work, study, and love in 30 countries by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.
