Those people need to watch 'The World at War', the British TV documentary from the mid 70's.

I'm getting a nagging feeling that with the oil supplies from the Middle East dropping, he will use the Venezuelan oil as a leverage point - buy our stuff, let us use your airbases or no oil for you. He wants the whole world on bended knee to him. Just a nagging feeling.

Didn't the orange painted one say a while back that he wasn't concerned about international law, as he would go with his own morals or words to that effect....

You think that orange tinted numpty cares about sovereignty...

A slightly moist away end at Leicester

Sounds interesting, enjoyed your last book. Just a presumptuous guess but have you spoken to anyone at the Royal Marsden yet - for any historical information they might have that might be useful?

Bit of a damp evening in Oxford, hoping the football is a bit better

I've never really got it either. From what I've heard there was a bit of a falling out between him and the hierarchy at the time. There seems to be a bit of consternation over the manner in which he left the club.

What is he testifying about? That's more my concern that his physical appearance....

Try around channel 44. That's where it is on my TV

Up in the north again - Middlesbrough away

It's all an employees fault, never his. Stupid twonk.

The view from a wet West Brom..

@mrjamesob.bsky.social pmqs should be interesting next week.....

Football eh? Never a dull moment.

Away end view from Wales - Wrexham

Look up 30p Lee - he is a UK politician who suggested pretty much the same thing here in Britain. Excuse the rudeness but it sounds like they are cheeks of the same arse.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social American version of 50p Lee!

There was an election advert/slogan here in the UK a few years ago i vaguely recall which showed a dark,stormy future if you voted one way and sunlit uplands if you voted the way the people behind the ad wanted.

That is eerily familiar - to those of us in the UK at least. Reminiscent of an election slogan.

The only ice I like is the cubes I put in my drinks.

It's going to be rather 'interesting' isn't it. Perhaps stick to something safe like overnight oats recipes.

How do you stop someone who believes they are above the law, the supreme Court of the country giving him carte blanch to do what he wants, and also that leader thinks international law doesn't apply to his country.

The problem here is where the UN headquarters are based. Just watch all delegates arrested/expelled for not bowing down to the leader of the country responsible for events. He's already shown he doesn't give a flying about the rules in America.

New year, another view from an away end

Was the ghost due to killer crabs?

Up bright and early in the north

Here's one for you - from reading The People's Manifesto, I'm calling a certain former prince Andy Slough. He is, after all, a commoner now.....

They've probably read a certain seasonal tale of Mr C. Dickens and treat a characters miserly ways as an instruction manual. Unless they get a big tax break so they can make themselves look good by donating a sum to charity.
