Geordie | Londoner | arts | gigs | good food and drink | transport geek | appalling memory | 🇪🇺🇬🇧🏳️🌈
- Season over for Manchester United. There’ll be tears all over Southern England. Massive club, apparently.
- Overlooked for a knighthood yet again!
- Aren’t we all all glad we don’t have to watch anymore of Toxic Price in the Darts?
- England, go home! You’re drunk! #ashes
- I love Berlin. It’s a favourite city. But it’s a terrible city to be in on your own. No chit chat with people… or bartenders. There’s no interaction from strangers like you get in London. It’s a lonely city.
- They also claim they are not racists. Each to their own.
- For the record, I don’t think FIFA are corrupt or racketeers at all. Not at all*
- Jeez. Berlin Brandenburg Airport is hopeless. They talk of German efficiency - not here. And hour at immigration and then no idea which carousel to find my baggage on, had to just go hunting. #BerlinAirport
- Just watched a VAR correction at the #snooker
- This is a fucking car crash from FIFA
- Terrible corporate, shite speech overheard to a team at a Christmas party tonight “At this time of year we have to be grateful for all that you do” Implying that this is bullshit and no one is grateful for the rest of the year. They will sack you in a heartbeat if the numbers don’t add up.
- Someone just sent me 9 messages for a message that should only have been 1. If you’re one of those people… STOP IT!
- Living in London (which, for the record, I like) I’m never happier than when conversing with a fellow Geordie. I think it’s the joy of slipping directly back into the dialect that feels warm and cozy
- People with no bar etiquette should be made to go on a course or be banned for life. #amateurseason
- I sincerely hope all the farmers honking their way around London today in their tractors, causing disturbance and disruption all go home with long lasting tinnitus.
- Strictly are bleating on about how amazing Blackpool is. It’s a shit hole. It’s twinned with Hull as the armpits of England.
- Had a weekend in Harrogate. Really enjoyed it. A little fix of Yorkshire
- This is a new level of British utter insanity… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
- Had a week in the Amalfi Coast. It sure is pretty but it is eye-wateringly expensive and can be a logistical challenge to get anywhere. Food surprisingly mediocre. Box ticked.
- The one thing I can stand in a restaurant is being served a tepidly cold plate of food. It’s unforgivable.
- I paid Royal Mail £72.50 for mail redirection after moving. So far I've had 1 item redirected and 5 items delivered to the old address. What's the point? It is near to impossible to complain. Shambles. Service not fit for purpose.
- Reposted by GavinNOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before. Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.
