For those new to this, and perhaps finding it all a little overwhelming, with numerous notifications, new followers etc., as the great migration continues....

If this doesn't get your other half on here @declynchwriter.bsky.social, then nothing will!

Sorry to bother you on a Wednesday, sir, but I notice on the door your name is Nigel Farage. Is that as in #FarageRiots? I see. Mrs Columbo thinks you’re a c*nt. So does my nephew. And my boss thinks you’re a c*nt too. We all do #LtColumbo #Columbo Tees from Sillytees bit.ly/3dlPsXF

I take it that you ARE aware of the position Everton Football Club has been in, financially, over recent years? Forced to sell our so-called best players and replacing them with players not quite of a similar standard? And still be competitive, or survive? Pickford has been central to our survival.

Footy is nowt without rivalries, and differences in opinions!
Top three Everton English keepers - West, Martyn and Pickford.
The greatest Everton keeper? NO contest: The Welsh binman, Neville Southall.

As an Irishman and an Evertonian......I always reckoned Clemence was leagues ahead of that twat Shilton.....but the red tops preferred that wanker. He got lucky.
Pickford, as much as we love him at Everton - he's very very good - we'd have been gone without him.
Still the finest keeper around.

Wherever Sean Dyche ends up, with his next gig........
I'm fully expecting to see Dwight McNeil to become a signing of his.
In January.

They were excellent last night. Deserved a draw.

Pity @evertonfc.com wouldn’t do the same on this increasingly popular platform?

Here in work this evening, listening to commentary of the Republic of Ireland v Armenia qualifier - dear God, it sound pitiful.

How poor must we become?

3 into 2 doesn't go!
Interesting set of games this evening, in the African section of World Cup qualifying.
Group leaders Benin travel to 3rd place Nigeria, ahead by 3pts, and a better goal difference (2). Second place South Africa face Rwanda, 2pts behind Benin!
Pressure on Nigeria!
AMOKACHI! 😎

Excellent! Thanks a mill! She'll be delighted with that...... a favourite customer of mine, even if she is a bit of a Tottenham supporter! Thanks again!

Colm Kavanagh @colmkavanagh.bsky.social · 1d

Here's a strange request for ye!
Had a customer in looking for a recent copy of The Times (London), with the obituary to Jilly Cooper!
Each to their own, etc.
Any of you kind souls with access to The Times' website able to 'grab' the article behind that paywall?
DM or email it to me?
Thanks!

Remember these frozen "offerings".....
Serves two people?
I'd get sent to bed, and within minutes, half of Ronaldsway in Fazak would be smell me Mam cooking this shite!!!!
I loved the odd spoonful of Risotto.
Very posh for off Copplehouse Lane back then, you know....

Colm Kavanagh @colmkavanagh.bsky.social · 1d

Where do you stand on the 70's standard dish du jour that was a Vesta Beef Risotto, or a Vesta Chicken Curry (without peas)?!

Colm Kavanagh @colmkavanagh.bsky.social · 1d

Marauding Reds!!!!! 🤣
Did you write that in crayon?!
For what it's worth (you can call it a bite!!!)...
United should've been 4-0 up inside 10 minutes.
This Everton Women's team is dreadfully managed.
Change needed.
18,000 plus at Hill Dickinson yesterday - fantastic!
Great for the women's game.

Bands (aside The Go Betweens, obviously!) who coulda, woulda, and most definitely shoulda been massive, back in the 80s....
Still, left us with some great music.
Could select so much from this lot, but this'll do, for now!

Stick a few peas on that plate, and himself @brianwoolfinder.bsky.social will declare he has a gastronomic masterclass on display.....

I'm actually excirreh and delirreh to finally be getting over for a game - an actual 3pm Saturday kick off no less, next month - having been thwarted this season so far by f*****g tv rescheduling of games. Work every second weekend, so more often than not do not have the luxury of choice!

Absolutely! Only surprise, for me, on the night......no yellow card given by the ref for that quickly taken free kick late on in the first half. The North were a little unlucky not to get a share of the spoils.
