And we’re meant to be celebrating the centenary of Thatcher’s birth! The root cause of much of what is wrong with this country.

Many years ago, late 90s, I was being shown around a house in higher Beb by the seller who waited until the end of the tour to deliver what he thought was the clincher- ‘this house used to belong to Patricia Routledge’ - unimpressed, we didn’t buy it.

Great top 5 singles, but Big Fun at 6??? Are they trying to be funny or was it genuinely thought bought to be a classic?

The trains were off earlier. Broken down train under the river. Hope it’s sorted.

Walking up bold street on a Friday night is a bit grim these days. It used to be one of my favourite parts of Liverpool
