Remember whenever you have the opportunity to do so, make your vote COUNT. Especially in Clacton. #BinfaceMP
Oh well, time to break out the sombrero, I suppose. At least it prolongs the pitiful sense of hope that England fans cling to.

Lard game day! As it stands we are good to go albeit with only a few games on so far. However we still have time to add more games and players so please share this around! I also think it will be a good plan to chat about details on the Lard forum to bring everyone to one place. #SpreadTheLard
Rain of quite literally Biblical proportions here, and been hammering it down solidly for the past hour. I've never seen anything like it, and I lived in the Lake District for 15 years. What makes it more bizarre is the nearest clouds are about half a mile away and 400 yards over the river is sunny.
I notice the Pope is quoting Tolkien. If only Peter Jackson had bothered to do a bit more of that...
Today is the US Memorial Day. Because my gym follows a US program, today's workout is: 1 mile run, 100 pull ups 200 push ups 300 squats 1 mile run All wearing a 10kg vest. One hour to kick off and it's already 24C....

Interesting stuff. While Apple Lane and Snakepipe Hollow are iconic settings in the game, and SH is definitely a 'new baddies in old setting' so not merely a rehash, I do feel RQ looks a bit trapped between reinvention and nostalgia. On the Royal Road sounds potentially very useful.

A final plug for Kev's rope climb charity challenge, beginning at 0400 tomorrow. It's for a child cancer charity and will see four of us climb over 2km vertically each (Video of a rope climb in 1st reply. Just 484 each... ). Thanks to all who've donated already! www.justgiving.com/page/kevin-m...

Next month I've somehow found myself part of this insanity. It means me doing 492 rope climbs in 22 hours. I'm old and have only three fully functioning limbs ... It would be most kind if you'd donate even a quid towards this for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Thanks. www.justgiving.com/page/kevin-m...

Trump's global strategy makes sense to me now. He's been playing Risk. It's obvious if you want to hold America you need Alaska, Greenland and Mexico. He has Alaska. Greenland is the next step. ctd...

We’ve just had a couple of late cancellations for our lard day near Southampton this Saturday. We had a good reserve list but we’ve cleared out the subs bench. If you fancy coming along let me know. First come first served!
Winter Wonder Lard VI is SOLD OUT! If you missed out we do operate a reserve list in case anyone drops out (there are usually one or two), to get on the list email philsfigures@gmail.com... #SpreadTheLard
There has been a rush on tickets this weekend and there are only a few left - so if you are planning to come to Winter Wonder Lard VI and have not bought your ticket yet don't delay to avoid disappointment... #SpreadTheLard
I've been playing the splendidly brutal and unforgiving (no reloading previous saves) Mordheim computer game recently. Recently my leader encountered this disgusting, corrupted fleshy mass and for some reason I thought of you @jaje7406.bsky.social.
Remembrance day workout. Mile run. 100 pull ups. 200 push ups. 300 squats. Mile run. All wearing a 9kg vest. 78 minutes including 2 mins stop for 11 o'clock silence. Not too bad for a geriatric.
@roundwoodsworld.bsky.social, this is probably the definitive take on 'why they didn't take the eagles'. youtu.be/I3g6mFI4Fug?...
