I actually kinda like the segments that Adam Richman does, makes me want to fly out there and sample all the food 👌🏼#ENGGHA #worldcup

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

@metoffice truly succeeded themselves today! Apparently wall to wall sunshine currently, yet as of now it’s been nothing but rain and storms…uk weather? or shite forecasting?

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

I’ve watched almost every World Cup game so far, up until now I’ve enjoyed it. This Argentina team really is annoying me! Diving, acting, complaining at everything!

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

Genuinely privileged to witness such greatness! Absolutely out of this world Tadej Pogacar! Sad for Lenny Martinez, he was doing so well! But no match for the Greatest Of All Time! #WeAreUAE #TourdeSuisse

@AmazonHelp What are you on about? The email was from Amazon! It’s neither fraud, scams, phishing or anything else under the sun..it’s a legit email from Amazon clearly sent to more than 1 person.

I’ve noticed no boo’s within the #USAAUS when it’s the hydration breaks? Almost like the Yanks are used to this quarterly bollocks?!

I’m not sure why ITV have just sacked off the Cape Verde accomplishment and just focused entirely on England?! Very odd. Absolutely stoked for Cape Verde, what scenes 👏🏻

@osinthexagone This one was pushing if not doing supersonic speeds! Never seen so much action in the skies.

Currently watching MLB on TNT Sports 2, and as a Brit…I have absolutely no idea what’s going on 😅 great skill these baseball pitchers have though! Bloody speed they can chuck this baseball 🤯

Reports of Riots in Paris…ey?! They bloody won?! 😂 shame for Arsenal, but well done PSG! #champi̇onsleaguefinal

@liamdutton @Windycom Storms near Milton Keynes seen earlier from Ashford Kent. Amazing how far away they can be seen. Was in the garden last evening watching lightning over 100 miles away!

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

@DilTee_ Same as the Tour de France. Been on ITV forever! TNT comes in and it’s no longer on there. Some people who don’t even like cycling would watch the tour, not anymore. Going from free on ITV to over £30 a month is very sad.

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

Champions League final not free this year due to TNT sports. Tour de France not free this year due to TNT sports…I can imagine TNT sports isn’t the most popular network right now with fans 😅

Genuine question, why does the race radio at #Indy500 sound like it’s on a submarine 5,000 feet underwater? Compared to F1 race radio, it sounds like air traffic control.

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

I like watching #Indy500 because everything is in MPH! and being a Brit I appreciate that greatly 😅 still can’t get over the speed of Indycar vs F1!

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

#Nurburgring24Hours has made me realise just how crap F1 has become! Also, it’s nice to actually hear an engine! Been so used to that shitty battery noise of F1. Can see why Max is doing these side quests!

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

Watching Max Verstappen in the #Nurburgring24Hours is so fascinating! Just goes to show this guy is a pure race machine! No time off between F1 races, just out there smashing it.

[Simon Bates @SimonBates1991]

Of course wanted pog to win, but I cannot believe the performance Paul Seixas put in today! Absolutely sensational! Hats off to Seixas, but of course the Greatest Of All Time Tadej Pogacar wins again 💪🏼

Non skip adverts on YouTube are one thing, but now there seems to be an influx of ai scam ads for mis sold car insurance. Is there no ad approval section? Can literally anyone and anything put an ad up or something?
