That ending gets me every time…

If anyone wants a bit of wholesomeness on this cold and barren Monday morning, here’s Real Betis fans raining down thousands of stuffed toys for disadvantaged children in their annual Christmas tradition

Massive away win for the little fella.

Good to see Luftwaffe Commander in Chief Joe Hart at Anfield yesterday

Happy ninth anniversary of the opening night of Funny Girl at the Menier Chocolate Factory in south London, a production which gave rise to one of the best pull quotes ever seen by human eyes
