"Stay woke, keep your eyes open." (Huddie William Ledbetter)
Trump is openly eyeing land that belongs to a NATO ally. Greenland is Danish territory, protected under NATO—and he says the U.S. “has to have it.” That’s not diplomacy; it’s authoritarian bullying. This is how imperialistic authoritarians behave when they think the rules don’t apply.

Haha!

They were banned from the Hotel dining room they were staying at in Bristol (1964).

Drugs? Alcohol? Unruly behaviour?

No, none of the above.

They weren't wearing jackets and ties 😆

The Move, Pink Floyd, Amen Corner... good stuff.

I saw The Stones twice, 1964 Bristol Colesnawl (Bristolian), and then 1982 at the Bristol City ground.

The Righteous Bros were headliners in 1964.
UB40 & J Geils Band, were part of the support in 1982.

I had a friend who's cousin was Brian Jones.

Twice. Excellent.

Just Woodstock for me ( the film doc of course).

I would have enjoyed the Walker Brothers.

Odd combinations in those days, Graham.
Helen Shapiro tour 60s, Beatles were 4th on the bill.

I saw them in early 1963 and they were 3rd to Chris Montez & Tommy Roe

I JUST WON A TENNER FROM MY WIFE!

I bet her that the first caller who would object to paying a 'bit extra' would say: "we've worked hard all our lives" 😇

Does she really think that only people living in expensive houses; work hard. (rhetorical)

Dodgy DAUBNEY sharing an umbrella, but probably should be sharing a prison cell.

Reform UK standing up for British culture, identity, values and most importantly, Russian bribes😜
