Thanks to Spurs and Man Utd for reminding us the football need not always be exciting or played to a high standard

Nick Clegg has a bloody cheek piping up at all. It was the austerity he enabled that is most responsible for Brexit & the continued unravelling of our social fabric. Then he swanned off to piss around at meta. Twat.

For those you interested, these are the heroes that picked up the little fella I found this am foxproject.org.uk

Mister Vallade just came in with a birthday card for the boy. It’s his birthday too. Same every year. Many Happy Returns David!

The Fox Project were bloody brilliant & came round within minutes to rescue it. And Jon went back to bed. Glad all over.

Look what I found when I left for the bookshop this am. @booksellercrow was hoping for a lie-in after 12,000 Wembley steps yesterday (and that was just to the bogs) AND it’s his birthday. Instead he had to leg it down in his PJs when he heard my shriek. Little guy had an injury. The cub, not Jon.

Well this is what I chalked for the week’s events schedule

Joanie is glued to Monty

Her expressionless face.. The tapping of her ear How lost she looks Her little feet on the rubble Is she, as Netanyahu puts it: “A murderous Islamist terrorist organization”? Can we be real about this FFS?

Sainsburys Taste the Brexit

I bet they absolutely suck.

Call me chippy but thankyou Sainos for showing me where these strawberries come from. So that I don’t buy them.

Stop the genocide: Tom Fletcher @tomfletcherun.bsky.social speaks for Britain, and the world.

Genuine question - can the Pope excommunicate people still? Because if so he has the opportunity to do the funniest thing

@kesterbrewin.com meanwhile….

On this day in 1994, the Holmesdale Road terrace witnessed its final match. 🏟️ Palace actually lost the match in question, but they were presented with the Division One trophy at full time. 🏆 #CPFC

NOW I want a fly-by and parade and day off, like everyone else in, um, Europe. Who are having proper knees-ups on the actual meaningful day.

Undumpable

He’s even stinking out the bookshops of Normandie

What’s up? I’ll tell you what’s up, the UK is celebrating VE Day today. Not on VE Day.

This is a miracle

Happy May the Fourth Day to all who celibate

This is Monsieur Chevalier himself. I actually don’t think he has a name. He’s just for mousing. But he gets to be famous when he comes round to notre gaff. Wonderful specimen is Maurice

Today in Normandie I learned that Maurice is the luckiest farm cat ever. And that Catisfactions is a far better name for treats than Dreamies. Even tho Dreamies sounds more French.

Doing some DIY shopping at the Brico and we come across a sensible mantra for life

Chips at the church. It’s what Jesus would have wanted
