Cooking in a Kettle

A former prisoner, I cooked in a kettle when I did time.
I love my family, Arsenal FC, and 90s/early 00s hip hop. I hate racists, The Scum newspaper, and Totnum Hotspurs.
Indian/Kenyan origin, but born and bred in East London.

A frustrating match for a variety of reasons. Is there a mental block against Liverpool after the defeat there? They came to frustrate, and did it very well. I thought we were good when the rain was pelting down - would have liked more shots from distance given the conditions. #coyg #arsenal

Two sad bits of football news:
1. Kevin Keegan diagnosed with cancer. I would love it if he beat it!
2. Martin Chivers passing away. He might have played for that lot up the road but he was held in high esteem.
Puts things into perspective.

4. The DOJ is not only pretending the files have not been reviewed but is acting like the files haven't even been identified. Every few days, more files are "discovered" that require review.

2. In an unsigned July 7 memo, the DOJ said the review of the Epstein files was complete.
The DOJ described it as an "exhaustive review" which involved "teams of agents, analysts, attorneys, and privacy and civil liberties experts"
Now the DOJ is pretending this review never happened

I'm stunned. I met Tony at Highpoint North on Houseblock 11. We often played chess and had some good debates as he was a highly intelligent person. He was, at one point, ranked the 8th best junior at table tennis in the country, before he became addicted to crack. RIP🙏

We made hard work of tonight. Now, two tough matches to finish the calendar year. Both have been "Bogey Teams" in the past few years, especially at our ground. Finishing our chances is imperative.
