Like Harold Wilson

Within two minutes of us scoring, Kane was playing in midfield. He should have been told stay up front, or replaced. Konsa didn't come on until 17 min after our goal. We were already hanging on but that change just made the defeat more inevitable

Jeremy Corbyn promised a day off for St. George's Day in his general election manifesto.

I imagine that our game, featuring the two giants of League 1 😃, will be moved for TV

I didn't agree with her political views, but she impressed me when she was one of the very few Tories who voted in favour of a ban on fox hunting, when Tony Blair was PM.

I was there a few years ago. Are there still loads of big jellyfish in the water and washed up on the beach?

Then they can ask Farage how many potholes could have been mended with the public money spent on the by-election 😃

Labour, LDs and Greens should unite behind 1 candidate, preferably a Martin Bell-type figure.

It´s a Catch 22 situation. A player that can be considered for captain has to be good enough to be chosen to play every week, but such a player may well have to be sold, leaving us with.... Why not choose a different captain for each game?

Was he playing? 😃 Portugal were very disappointing, considering the players they've got.

When we won the FA Cup, was It only the players and subs (used or not) named for the final who received medals? Specifically, did JJ get one?

I couldn't tell you. I used up all my knowledge of British-American conflicts in my previous comment!

Ironically, George Washington fought FOR the British against the French in 1754-8. I have read that initially the colonists still considered themselves British, but were cheesed off with the taxes they had to pay, their motto being "No tax without representation" (in the London parliament). The French played an important role in what became the War Of Independence, their warships preventing movement of British troops (and foreign mercenaries) and arms up the East coast of America. Modern Americans seem reluctant to mention that, perhaps explaining the France-USA antagonism. In the 1950s some French politicians were demanding that all American troops left French soil. An American wag replied "Does that include all the dead ones?"

Hope they´re up for it, even though the game may be brought forward 6 hours https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cvgmz3jyq9qo

I don't remember what it was like, it was 1998 (last game of the season)

The nearest pub to Whitechapel tube station is the infamous Blind Beggar. I went there for a pint once on the way to a game at West Ham

We were there about 15 years ago. We only visited the north and east sides (Amlwch, Cemaes, Benllech and the part closest to the mainland with its great views across the water). Plenty of coastal walks. We visited the former copper mine (Mynydd Parys/Parys Mountain). It was free to park (and apparently still is) and there were very few visitors (in August). It´s a strange landscape of old mine workings that you might spend up to an hour walking around. Enjoy!

The death of Roosevelt and the electoral defeat of Churchill in 1945 probably contributed.

Thanks for looking up the data to support my earlier suggestion! I see you´re still waiting for a negative, fact-based reply to your well-researched contribution. Technology has always changed with time, meaning that old jobs are lost and new ones created. The ideal situation is that the new technologies generate at least the same number of jobs. We should view the current "green revolution" as an opportunity, not a threat. Last week a number of new UK hydro-power plants were announced. Perhaps in a few years´ time people will be complaining about the loss of jobs in the wind and solar power industries as we switch to hydrogen/algae or whatever new technology emerges.

And after he left us he went on to play for Spain

I agree, but please delete that photo 🤮

Been there done that. I think it was illegal, whereas recording the same song off TOTP wasn´t. A certain radio show used to play dance megamixes, which I taped, although they always included a voice saying "you´re not taping this are you?"

In the research world it used to be called sewage sludge. Now, most researchers call it "biosolids" 🤓

Nice to see. Does it eat the cats' food?

That's what I was thinking. I don't know the location, but I'll go for American Robin
