Just because it’s #TonkaTuesday

A few words I spoke 39(😱) years ago today…

Last nights entertainment. An excellent show with plenty of superb 80s music.

🟢🟡 Kovačević to be the new Keelan, Woods, Gunn, Ruddy, Krul and Theo? 🗣️ @garygowers.bsky.social LINK: norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/2025/06/22/k... #ncfc

That London, we are in you…

Approaching Sarcoma Awareness Month, please take a look…

When airfield security was a little more tricky to navigate. RAF Brüggen late 70s. With a feline being prepared for its next foray. Happy #Caturday everyone.

The question is, which one?

Stephen Fry as General Melchett should really have announced Darling’s signing…#ncfc

Happy heavenly birthday to the much missed David Powell Keep shining brightly up there you legend. #ncfc

Hits of 1985 on BBC2…I’m 17 again. Great memories, cheesy choons 🤣

Nobody does it better #TroopingTheColour 🇬🇧

Liberation Day in the Falkland Islands. Lest we forget 🇬🇧

Cold War Jaguars, 20 Sqn RAF Brüggen, West Germany. Happy #Caturday

Who doesn’t love a storm at 1am. Some stunning lightning, almost continuous at times. Rolling thunder, torrential rain. Hell of a half hour. Don’t think Hubert the Hamster liked it too much though!

Mike Milligan once tailgated me through the underground barrier at Liverpool Street after an England v Scotland game at Wembley. He saw us on the train back to Norwich, bought us a beer and sat and chatted for the rest of the journey 🤣 #ncfc

It’s #Caturday once more. Leaving, doing the job, returning. Just another day in the life of the feline air machine

Operation Overlord. June 6th 1944. D-Day. Lest We Forget. #WeWillRememberThem

Is it me? 🤷‍♂️🤣

A great days entertainment, despite the rain delay #ENGvWI

Afternoon everyone…

An afternoon at the cricket. Essex v Somerset T20. Gwaaaarn Zummerzet…

When ITV lost their live Champions League rights in 2015, they signed off with a brilliant montage of all the great moments they’d covered during the previous 23 years. So much top class European football seen on free-to-air terrestrial TV. Glory days.

It’s that time again. The sleek lines of the Jaguar T2/T4 this week. Who doesn’t love a T-bird, a beautiful machine (unless you’re changing the front cockpit canopy jettison system 😱). Happy #Caturday everyone

Sad news for fellas of a *ahem* certain age. Farewell Major “Hot Lips” Houlihan. RIP www.bbc.com/news/article...

40 years on. Never forget. #Heysel

Looking forward to the meltdown from those who think we should be approaching someone like Ancelotti or his ilk 🤷‍♂️ #ncfc

Chelsea qualify for the Champions League despite being the only away team to lose at Portman Road this season 🤣

I refuse to believe it’s been 10 years! Where did that go 😱 What a day #ncfc

Bravo Sunderland 👏👏

Hubert the Hamster would bid you a Good Morning, but he’s too busy filling his pouches…#HamsterLife

The irony being of course, that this festival wasn’t being attacked by Hamas 🤷‍♂️ #ThickAsMince

Gwaaarn Sunlun 🐈‍⬛

XZ112, 54(F) Squadron, coded GA - The Queen of the Fleet. Same aircraft, different paint job. Happy #Caturday everyone

Goodison Park. Been there a number of times with #ncfc. The Efan Ekoku inspired 5-1 in Sept 93 stands out of course. Plenty of great memories though stretching back to the 80s. Decent fans to share a pre/post match beer with too.

I hate people, part 7463829 Eaton Park this morning 🤬 WTF is wrong with people!

Happy 60th birthday Michelle. Keep shining brightly up there.

Cold War Jaguars, RAF Brüggen, late 70s/early 80s. Happy #Caturday
