I'm a firm believer that if the BBC really wanted to cut back they should not renew Vine's contract and have the 11-2pm slot as a music show / guests plugging stuff show. Keep current affairs for 5Live and R4
Reminded of elsewhere, but here you’ll find Vernon Kay getting as close to calling Jeremy Vine a stupid cunt as you’ll ever get on daytime BBC radio.
Jeyzoos. Bono looks like he'd dig in his purse for 20p for you and send you home with a Lidl choc ice.

That was hot hard work and heart poundingly difficult. Going to have rethink the x-trainer on L6 because it's hard for 30mins. Might have to go L4 to 5 to 6 and back down in intervals. Avanti! 🚲🏋🏼♂️💪🏼🏃
We go again (ignore the barbells. That's just storage). It's pilates bars and bands tonight. They hurt more than the weights.
BBC News - Man 'driven insane' by noise admits killing fish www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... A conditional discharge? They should have had him on a tag between 3pm and 9am so he had to listen to the pond's pump for 18 hours.

So we've had tech bros conquering the earth for gain, permanent war in Europe and Asia, we'll have famine and rising prices after the heatwaves dissipate and covid was the plague as the first sign. Only the final destruction, resurrection and rapture to look forward to.
There is nothing on that list I would not eat and have eaten and drunk everything on it.
There are 12 that I absolutely won't eat. 🤷♀️ What about you? 🤔
So without the rower it's about 2km per session down but way more effort and an extra 200-220 calories burned for a weights session night. Avanti! 💪🏼🏋🏼♂️🚲🏃
X-trainer benchmark. Probably at the edge my fitness with it at L6. Even briefly got a stitch!
Mr Fedora says he's gonna spot me but somehow I think it may be a lie.
Jimmy Cricket has died. I can't remember any of his jokes but as a child I knew he was funny. *Paddington holding hands with Jimmy leading him towards heaven, the clouds part and a voice in the distance is saying, "hey Jimmy, and there's more"’

Remember that time Paul Ross was caught wanking on that traffic island following a meth/crack/white cider bender? Good times.
Or as Hooky said, the second biggest cunt in Manchester playing the biggest cunt in Manchester. Obviously said out of love and it's geographically incorrect. Coogan is Oldham (Middleton, actually) and Wilson was fiercely Salfordian.
I am absolutely obsessed with this quote about Manchester that Tony Wilson never said but was written by a scouse author in protest at an editor’s note that the 24 Hour Party People script didn’t follow the traditional three act structure and now serves as the ambient ~vibe~ for UK government
Tip run done. Feeling of achievement 👍🏻 Smell of it 👎🏻 Busy 🫳🏻
