Another very enjoyable WHW NW Pub Meet in Preston. Many pies. And a very big sausage. (No, don't even go there!) And much waffle in excellent company. Next meet: Sat 18th Oct, Blackpool, Spitfire Visitor Centre...and chips, of course. All welcome! #WeHaveWays @WeHaveWaysPod

He’s been shot, stabbed, flogged, bitten and beaten. He’s been cornered, surrounded and lost beyond enemy lines. But against the odds, he’s cheated death, and defied fate at every turn… Happy Birthday to Major Richard Sharpe!

1813. When you’re facing an impossible mission, you need someone who knows how to fight dirty, think fast, and survive the impossible. Oh, and someone who knows how to ruin a Frenchman’s day. You need Richard Sharpe… Pre-order Sharpe’s Storm: amzn.to/40wyvDm

The word legend is over used but not today. Happy homecoming Sir Billy Boston. The knighthood and the stand shouldn’t have taken so long but tonight is yours.

Loretta was a supremely talented actor. She deserved all her 10 EMMY nominations and her 2 wins. But more than acting her part, she created it. She worked hard In showing the writing staff how they could turn the character from a one joke sexist stereotype into a real person --…

Possibly the most depressing #PMQs I’ve watched in a long time. Pathetic and obsequious questions. Starmer has the personality of a tea spoon and clearly struggles when speaking in front of people.

One was paid £5m a year to beat teams like Slovakia in Extra Time, but ultimately fail. The other has put his body on the line to raise over £11m in honour of his friend and the MND community who are in desperate need of treatments. Guess which one has been given a Knighthood ?

So a tax that no school has ever paid is now being described as a tax break, which nobody ever has before. As opposed to a new tax on education, which is what it is. It’s an impressively Orwellian use of nomenclature. And it will pay for a third of an extra teacher in every…
