They should just give Cook the Countryfile gig now.

Why can’t we just have the Aus commentary? Would certainly have more energy. Although didn’t they do that for the first Test last time then switch to a weird hybrid of Brit commentators watching on TV back home & Gower in the grounds?

Mary Gauthier for us last night. Spellbinding in a lower key way. Interesting how sad songs make me happy.

Was moaning about this all weekend. My daughter suggested The Woolympics.

Because the there is no logical way of making any informed decisions! Almost nothing that happens means anything of consequence! The whole system is fatally flawed!

Yes. Neighbourhood plans are bottom-up and resident/community led. This proposal is nothing of the sort.

Sounds good but is there a way of reading without a Times subscription?

Maybe you were hearing Get It On on the Golden Hour. (This isn’t to say I have a problem with Noel using this brilliant riff from a brilliant old song on a brilliant new song - it’s a fantastic steal)

The anti campaign, inc this meeting, led by Highgate Society, outside the proposed LTN area. At least 3 of the anti speakers live in LTNs already tho may not realise. Most resident groups within DP, & respondents to the online engagement, do strongly oppose btw - may or may not reflect wider views.

“Yeah, that's why I can never understand any of those silly letters you send me." Brilliant.

I’m just going to enjoy the song titles for a day before listening.

Yes, London North airport is in West Sussex.

Already closed. Great for pedestrians & most likely traders. Note: impossible to cycle down - too many people - as was Parkway - too much stuck traffic, though that may be normal; in the end I got off and pushed bike on pavement. Arlington Rd also gridlocked, don’t know if that’s normal, guess not.

Have heard Luton fans sing this at Cambridge. I guess that shitholery is in the eye of the beholder.

I think a big part of it is the removal of party political games from national policy making. If only the same could happen at the local level. Linking planning to a raft of new elected mayors will not help this.
