I don't know about you, but I could do with cheering up... so here's a little Puffin going for a little walk. 🥰
Always makes me smile! 😁🐦

Lo de la @Argentina (@AFA) es la definición de antifútbol y mal perder. No supieron ganar en el campo y han demostrado una falta de dignidad absoluta fuera de él. Dar la espalda y negar el aplauso a la @SEFutbol es una actitud marrullera, tosca e inaceptable para profesionales.

Un grupo de aficionados argentinos comenzó a insultar y hostigar a un señor por llevar el jersey de México.
Él simplemente se cagó de risa, les mostró una tarjeta roja, se puso a bailar y, para rematar, se quitó la playera mexicana para revelar que debajo llevaba la de España.
Los argentinos estaban fúricos. 🤣🤣

Disgusting behaviour by the Argentinians at the end, especially Paredes.
Just a bunch of nasty violent thugs, and a disgrace to football. Never been so happy to see a team lose.

Had a lot of very angry Argentinians raging abuse at me for this post. Calm down… it’s not my fault you lost the Falklands War, and it’s not my fault you’re going to get stuffed by Spain on Sunday.

I must confess to being a bit emotional this morning at the news of a knighthood for Kevin Sinfield.
I’ve always called him ‘Sir Kev’ and it’s hard to think of a man more deserving. He showed us all what it is to be a friend. What it means to step up when people need you and he did it all for his mate ❤️
After he carried Rob across the line in the Leeds marathon someone sent me this poem anonymously and I kept it on my phone. They called it ‘Arise Sir Kev’…
When shadows gathered, and hearts would break
Kev knew it was time to take…
One step, another, through wind and rain,
Carrying hope, despite the pain.
He never stopped, mile after mile,
Driven by loyalty, strength… a smile.
For Rob, his friend, he aim was true
Showing us all, what friendship can do.
Not measured in trophies, applause, or fame…
But turning up, again and again.
And in every mile he chose to run,
He showed us how friendship is truly done.

Some people use the Force… 🤨 I prefer a well-timed toast and a five-year mission. 🥂
May the Fourth be with you… if you must but let’s be honest; I’ve been boldly going since before it was cool. 😉🚀

If President Trump wants to take the Falkland Islands away from Britain, then we must reclaim the United States.
Perfect way to celebrate the 250th anniversary of American Independence.
King Charles can announce it to Congress next week.

The stoning scene in Monty Python’s Life of Brian (1979) is one of the funniest moments they ever made.
Dawn Evans retweeted
Still BRILLIANT even after 50 years!!!👏Monty Python’s Life of Brian is honestly decades ahead of its time.

When Sir Bobby Robson completed his final chemotherapy session in 2007, his oncologist Dr Ruth Plummer pulled him to one side. Her department was outdated, a new cancer unit had been planned, but there was no money to equip it. Did he know anyone who could help?
He took it home to his wife Elsie. She backed it without hesitation, and the phone calls started. A committee formed, and the idea emerged — use his name, build a charity around it.
Bobby wasn’t comfortable with it at first. But once his name was attached, there was no going back.
The target was £500,000 by summer 2008. The launch at the Copthorne Hotel was an immediate success, with Des Lynam, Bob Wilson and Jim Rosenthal all showing up out of nothing but goodwill.
Seven weeks later, they’d raised £560,000.
Today, the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation has raised over £20 million for cancer research.
Legend. ❤️

Brilliantly put. 👏👏👏
Unhappy with your bank, phone provider, or electricity supplier? Switch.
Unhappy with your water company? Tough. No competition. No price control. No opt out.
A state-protected cartel profiteering from ecological ruin with total impunity.

Did you see the shocking finale to Dirty Business?
Govt must act, NOW!
And can I just say, a huge round of applause to all of the decent people working within the water industry and regulators, trying to do their job, to make things better, to put things right and all the while being hampered by politics, corporate greed and incompetence. 👏👏👏

Enough of the bullshit, enough of the rhetoric, enough of the fiddling around the edges, enough of rearranging the deckchairs, enough of pointless commissions and even more pointless reports, enough of the lying, enough of the deceit, enough of the gaslighting, enough of the masquerade, enough of the pretending it's time for govt to get a grip, to show leadership, to show determination, to do the right thing, to act.
It's time to put the water industry back into public ownership and the time to do that is now.
But have they got the balls?!
