D'oh! I meant Sky Sports and Sky Cinema

On @throbber, the wife was watching this Australian show called Heartbreak High on Netflix. One guy drew a giant penis on a rugby pitch with petrol and set it alight. Made me think of him.

With Virgin Media, last time I signed up to them they gave me something like an £80 a month discount if I took out an O2 phone package.. That costs £30 a month. Got a sim card sitting in a drawer. I'm paying £91 a month for TV, broadband, landline, sky cinema, sky movies, plus this £30 mobile contract. So £121 in total for the lot.

8 Friday

I must admit a soft spot for Queen, and I think it is because I remember them when they were on the go. Talking about a band before you were born, there is a disconnect. Maybe why the coffin dodgers on here love the Beatles and I don't. The first album I remember listening to was A Kind of Magic. I was 7 or 8 and my brother had this on cassette. This, along with Now 6 and Status Quo's In The Army Now. I loved AKOM. I still do. Innuendo was a masterpiece, then shortly after this Freddie died and we had the whole phenomenon of Greatest Hits 2, Christmas Number 1 and Wayne's World. All this I remember. For anyone born after, say, 1990 they are just history. As an aside, I watched Highlander again recently. Surely the best soundtrack ever, that became A Kind of Magic. So many great songs, and gives the album context (Who Wants To Live Forever etc).

I'm more and more certain the general election will be in January, for one simple reason. "Rishi Sunak: British Prime Minister, 2022-2025" looks better on his CV/history books.

We have a Rugby League thread?

Brighton resident's fight against council to keep trees outside house

If we look at the general elections of 2015, 2017, 2019 in each case the Tories changed their leader after winning an election. Very unstable.

I saw the Eagles at Hampden in 2001, and he played it there.

Love that song! Seen it played live, too - brilliant.

8 for Thursday

I see your Pressley and raise you John Lambie. Utterly shafted us, with his pish anti-football. As a kid who went regularly this was my first experience of utter dross. Even Eamonn Bannan was better.

I will give you actual cash if it was Humza Yousaf

Like when security guards "wanted" to work 80 hour weeks to avoid the Working Time Directive.

24 is better. I am pretty sure that Jack Bauer had a heart attack after being exposed to a toxin, and a couple of hours later was fist fighting a terrorist.

My Wife says that I never solve my own problems. How do I prove her wrong?

Wrath of Man you fill in the blank, cunto
