I don't know, World Rugby, maybe if you insist on people registering to watch live rugby then you might want a server that can handle a few people trying to sign up to watch the England game 🤦‍♂️

Trying to explain the concept of the Lions tour to my daughter and putting my head in a blender would be less painful 😂

Today's been Employee Ownership Day in the UK, we had our annual shindig to celebrate it yesterday. Apprentice style scavenger hunt around Manchester which was very hot & a lot of fun! Included yours truly having to recreate badly the Leaning Tower of Pisa gag with the Beetham Tower.....

Just watched the first 2/6 episodes of Murder 24/7, about the DPD driver murder from 2023. So far, it's compelling stuff and recommended.

Excellent news on decriminalisation of abortion. After sacking off economics as my outside course for 1st yr at University, chose Philosophy instead. This book & that course were a revelation & abortion was a specific topic. Feels there's still plenty who could do with studying it.

Greggs. Come for the sausage rolls, builder's tea and caramel custard doughnuts, stay for the Fairtrade coffee, free range eggs, sustainable tuna & prawn sourcing, and helping ex-offenders get back into work.

"C'est vrai, Arteta a dit qué L'Arsenal était 💯 le meilleur équipe dans le ligue des Champions."

La pantera duerme en mi ropa interior (by Monica Naranjo, translates to 'the panther's sleeping in my pants') - I've always found it funny but it's objectively a terrible lyric

Went to Sirmione last Summer. Lovely day, enlivened by being asked to take a photo by young Italian couple. 2 or 3 snaps & job done I thought. But no. Guy goes to his gf, they face away to look over Lake Garda. Ok. So a couple of poses. Nope. Several of them! Getting more smoochy each time....

One of those magical clips that somehow gets funnier on each successive viewing. The doofus riding on top; the "important" guy walking alongside the tank; the half-empty grandstands; the wheels squeaking along on an otherwise silent street. You might not like it, but this is ART.

Well, Karl Dickson gifted Bath a win over Sale earlier on the season and now he's stuffing Leicester in the final too. At least Dickson despair has reached this site now too #BATvLEI
