'UNFRIEND IT LIKE BECKHAM Fresh twist in Beckham family feud as David and Victoria unfollow son Brooklyn on Instagram after snub from brothers.
It comes after their sons Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 20, unfollowed their brother and his wife on the app in July.
A source said: “This is the ultimate snub in 2025 – it shows just how deep their rift is.”

Watching some channel ive never heard of it's playing an excruciatingly unfunny historic christmas 'variety' show from some blokes called Cannon and Ball. It's hellish, i refuse to believe the older generations enjoyed this crap.We didn't.

Only if you ask nicelyI wasn't aware that an extra-marital affair could result in state administered beating in Croydon.It’s because the UAE is like a hot dry version of Croydon. And because they quite like autocracies.The video of Mitchell owning Yaxley-Lennon was a wondrous site to behold. I do find it remarkable that Islamaphobic racists and Reformers seems to be drawn to the UAE. It must be their relaxed social contract.Have you lot done this yet? Tiny Tom gets his arse handed to him by boxer Ty Mitchell in Dubai.Do the people running that magazine realise that Tommy Lots Of Names *wants* to get lifted by the UAE police? That far from being a stone in his shoe, getting locked up for his racist shit there would be the trigger for pressure from his fan club in the US to get released.
Tan Smith just referred to Stephen Yaxley-Lennon as Ewok Powell. Well it made me laugh.

So he’d get a free ride home at the end of his holiday, remind his pals in the high places he exists and burnish his rep among his online chums. Wonder how many more subscriptions to his online sewer he would get from that?
I actually marginally prefer the Canary Wharf of the tropics with added corporal punishment of Singapore to the Croydon of the Gulf with its patrol cars checking for shaggers on the fake beach.

Just popping in to say hello and to report that the St John Xmas Xword is “oven ready” and will be served on time, as in previous years. I hope as many of you as possible will have a look at it and share in the communal solving activity. 😀

Memories. I failed my first driving test in the days when doing hand signals was part of it. I had my hand out of the window indicating right, and as I changed gears at the same time, for some inexplicable reason the examiner grabbed hold of the steering wheel.

So the suggestion is that he's an Awful Author?A completely unconnected story about another author: once we had Jilly Cooper - sadly now gone - at our bookshop for an event. At no point during her visit did we consider which of our booksellers could be safely left alone in a room with Jilly, nor did we suggest female staff didn't wear skirts, nor did we plan the author seating so that there was a safety gap between author and bookbuyers to prevent groping of the latter by the former. Ms Cooper was lovely.
(We have copies. There are worse things than dreadful childrens' books.)

On general car safety, whenever I watch films from the 60s or 70s I wonder how on earth so many survived driving around in those death traps. Twice, on different occasions, I had friends fall out of a car as it was driving along. They were in the passenger seat and as the car went round a bend, they lurched against the passenger door and it opened and they fell out. They weren't wearing a safety belt, because no-one did in those days. Both survived. One landed on a grass verge, injured his back and had to wear a corset for 6 months. The other fell out at a roundabout. She was in an MG, which was going slowly, but she was lucky not to be run over. Her face was badly bruised. It was the summer when everyone seemed to be wearing a Kaftan so she wore one with the hood up to try to hide her bruises.
The past is a different country.

Although I tend to agree that the Ashes has been a brutal, one-sided mismatch of a fight, I'm not sure that we've reached the stage where it should be banned.
