Cracking final in #thedarts

I'm sure people are posting #shadows this week. #photography

MP not seen anything to suspect husband has 'broken any law', after China spy arrests The Met Police suspect three men of assisting Chinese intelligence services in the UK.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Can't believe they left out the bit about "I've never even had a chow mein. What even is chow mein? Is it some kind of drink?"

As a Pompey fan, I'm still livid about that. I need to let it go, I know.

She’s learnt her lesson about wanting hotels full of foreigners and immigrants being burnt down. See. Prison does work

I think the members actually voted for it. But the top of the party is happy governing for 5 years in 20 because.... No fucking idea.

I recommend this place if you really need something bigger than your standard draught beer.

Mayor pushes on with language lesson cuts in face of protest Greater Lincolnshire’s Mayor Andrea Jenkyns has cut funding for English language lessons from next year – despite claims it will increase division.

Reform: they're sending out leaflets that aren't in English and that's divisive!

Yes, I'm probably being too generous with that excuse!

I suppose some might not have realised it was going to be as close fought as it was, what with it being Labour for 100 years. I live in a true blue area (and not in the good Pompey way) and it's bloody boring and feels pointless going to vote for the losing candidates all the time.

The more I hear about inverse proportion, the less I like it.

Lovely little 9 darter. Was beginning to fear for Rocky. #thedarts

It's Fruit Bat for me. My son doesn't watch it any more, but reading that has made me tempted to binge watch the whole lot of them. It's one of the best series ever.

This pic makes it look like Mandelson aims his door key from halfway down the path like some kind of door key sniper.

A first attempt at getting some light trails. I think I took the photo with the train too far into frame and too long an exposure for the two carriages. #photography

I can only ever read "Lord Palmerston" with the voice of Barney Gumble in my head.

GVV beats one Luke to the final, Clayton has smashed the other. The premier league is apparently in Glasgow, but they've resisted the opportunity to give it an "England get battered"?!? #thedarts

Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.

Marner definitely not choking

They need to send the scouts to Bridlington swimming pool... One of the slides times you on the way down and, I can vouch for this, the dads amongst us trying to set the day's best time we're getting pretty serious when I visited.

Was enjoying the mist coming in on the evening walk.

That conversation and the numbers really don't lie. Yet in my head, he's not the beacon of hope that they were. I'm older and more cynical now. But maybe if I was speaking to more gen alpha and gen z, I would see exactly how revered Kane was.

It's a bit odd. I wonder if it is because the people we think about reverence with are older? In my head, making an ultimate England forward line is going to involve debating Lineker, Shearer and Rooney, because they were the players who I revered at a more impressionable age. Yet Kane is easily in

I still want a spinoff based on Joyce's very busy social life.

Excellent #midsomermurders on itv3 now. A veritable who's who of minor characters from great British comedy. Features both "cauliflower is traditional" dad from Peep Show and Linton Travel Tavern Susan from I'm Alan Partridge.
