BREAK IN APPEAL! 🚨
Sadly two young kids thought they’d spend their Saturday evening (5pm) helping themselves to all sorts of stock & items from our marquee last night…..and enjoying a Smirnoff ice whilst doing so. 🤬
We’ve got crystal clear CCTV of the incident, so would kindly ask the parents or guardians of said children to get in touch with the club between 9am - 5pm tomorrow. ‼️
So frustrating & disappointing after a great week at the club that continues to do everything it can to improve the West End, and provide a club for all the community. 💙

Sometimes birding throws up the occasional bizarre encounter.
Such as watching a Bittern in a wooded cemetery on the edge of Sheffield city centre!
Clearly surviving in the area as it has been seen in local gardens and on rooftops @Sheffbirdstudy @BirdGuides

I really give up. Everything is a lost cause. Just no hope. The EU has sanctioned the killing quota of 132,000 EUROPEAN TURTLE DOVES - one of the most endangered bird species of our time. They won't stop until it is extinct. Disgraceful and unforgiveable

At 82, Peter Giles is still breaking British age-group records — he improved his M80 5km best to 22:28 at Battersea Park at the weekend.
He also used to play bass for King Crimson 🎸🏃

A look back as we end the season.
What a year! 6 chicks from 3 nests, the most we've ever had. Thanks to all who've watched webcams, followed posts and come along. We've met such lovely people.
It's been an honour and a privilege. See you next year.

Back from the brink of extinction:
Critically endangered kākāpō numbers have surpassed 300 birds for the first time in 75 years.
90 chicks were officially added to their population on September 1, bringing the total to 325—a record high since recovery efforts began in 1995, with only 51 birds left.
Breeding success was triggered by the mass fruiting of New Zealand's rimu trees.
Good views of a Baird's Sandpiper today on the Wirral. Lovely to watch it busily feeding

Jarell Quansah has his red card ban extended to two matches. FIFA will consider an appeal, if the England defender can prove he’s either American or Argentinian or a brown envelope stuffed with cash

Terrible about that Ryanair flight. A window blew out (£7 fresh air), a man’s head was sucked outside the plane (£19 scenic view), oxygen masks deployed (£15) and they landed back in Greece (£450 holiday extension). Everyone’s safe though (£70 wellness fee) so that’s good.

There is a new highfalutin football jargon designed by commentators to give off the impression that they know what they are talking about by using pseudo-intellectual new buzz-words and phrases:
⚽️ “Defending deep” has become “low block”.
⚽️ “Closing down defenders” has become “high press”.
⚽️ “Giving the ball away” has become “transition”.
⚽️ “Winning the ball back quickly after conceding possession” has become “counter-press”.
⚽️ “Winning the ball back high up the pitch” has become “high turnovers”.
⚽️ “Passing the ball to the player who scores” has become “an assist”.
⚽️ “Number 10” has become “false nine”.
⚽️ “Defensive midfielder” has become “a pivot”.
⚽️ “Finding space” has become “pockets of space”.
And don’t even get me started on the overuse of the word “jeopardy”.

Clarion Housing destroyed an active swift colony by demolishing a building early, breaching the Wildlife and Countryside Act. Tell the Surrey Police crime commissioner to enforce the law 👉surrey-pcc.gov.uk/contact-us… It’s #worldswiftday but no one gives a monkeys.
Tregoran edler is a real miserable old arse. Be tempting to just shut the door and don't look back. #thearchers
