Yes I was late to that show- but always thought I should have watched more. I don’t think it topped M&W though.

Can any Gaelic speakers tell me if Io sgail do sgiathan falaich mi means I will hide myself under the shadow of thy wings and, if so, if I spelled it correctly? Thank you!

It is interesting that Jeremy Corbyn has been an MP for 42 years and led the opposition for 5 years.

He's been on Question Time once.

Nigel Farage, 44 times.

Our Media is corrupt, corrupt to the core.

I bought this frame last week and considered switching all the bits from the Scott onto it. I’m now discombobulated as to what to do. Probably hang both back up in the garage and ride a winter hack ( of which I have plenty) until I decide.

I think the person in orange thinks she’s not an ‘ordinary’ person.

Ah that as well. My sister lives in Chester and is learning Welsh and considers herself to be Welsh!

Bought this bike a year ago thinking I would take the equipment off it and put on on another bike. Decided to give it a ride today and I found it quite comfy. It might be a keeper.

Let em go. They contribute next to nothing so they’ll be hardly missed. And their 4x4s not parked on the pavement will be a bonus.

I noticed yesterday how Robinson on bbc Today corrected his pronunciation of the leader of the opposition surname from Bad-Enock to Bade-Nock.

The man that said it was from Clitheroe but had been living in the Dordogne for twenty years running a campsite. It told him I’d lived there twenty years prior but then realised it was actually 40 years ago. tempus fugit
