Years ago I went to Oldenburg as part of strengthening cultural ties & they presented me with bicycle bell - I didn’t have a bike. I was lucky to meet some fabulous people. Fast forward & it’s been on my handlebars for a while and today I just thought, ‘what did they know that I didn’t.’

Just had my three monthly transplant consultation. All went well and apparently I have ‘the blood pressure of a teenager’. So, if you see some kid with a red face struggling to get up tell them I’ve got their blood pressure

This is what the pro-Brexit argument has been reduced to now: "I like being able to needlessly inconvenience myself. Why are you taking it away from me?"

They never had a plan.
They just lied and lied and lied.
Both Brexit and Immigration are the most dishonest and ruinous policies going. A Tory/Farage conspiracy of deceit that Labour seems to want to protect rather than challenge.
As for Chris Philp - get in the bin.

I poured boiling water into the mug with tea bag and went to get a teaspoon. Ended up rearranging the cutlery draw. Finally went back to slightly like warm tea with … not teaspoon. Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to my brain (and some days you are indeed welcome to it)

If it wasn’t for photographic evidence you could almost believe that Monday night’s Cheese Club was just a dream (or nightmare). Great songs created and a engineering miracle to carry the Gherkin of Truth over the Bridge of Lies or Aqueduct of Apathy. Thanks to all the Fromagartists

“The Chancellor sparked anger when she revealed that govt wants to enable young people from Europe and UK to work and travel overseas”

What ‘Brexit freedom’ exactly is being betrayed here?
The freedom to NOT be free to work and travel overseas?
One of the stupidest front pages I’ve ever seen.

Ooh the child in me is overjoyed. Racing to catch a bus and losing I found myself thinking ‘if I click my fingers the lights will change and stop the bus’. So I did and they did and the child in me now singing a happy song from the top deck

Great bit of punditry in the Newcastle versus Ipswich match. The comment was ‘you see how well Ipswich have stifled Isak. We’ve hardly mentioned him. In fact have you noticed how often we haven’t mentioned him.’
