    Seeing fellow fans

    When not in the North East and not at a match still surprises me to this day. In this case someone at my gym in Hampton. Where you are in the world you want to nod and say "alright gadge" Or is it just me?

    Formula 1

    🥱🥱🥱 much has happened, little has changed. I guess that's why silly season tried to excite things with Horner the sex pest. Still at least WEC is exciting this year, currently watching both the 1812KM of Qatar and the Red Bull tour of Bahrain. Qatar far more exciting

    Reasons to buy a Lamborghini

    They've managed to implement a four day week for their workers without cutting wages. IN fact it looks like they've given out a bonus. Power to the unions here! https://www.businessinsider.com/lamborghini-4-day-workweek-production-workers-2023-12?r=US&IR=T

    Lineker

    Seems to have upset the gammonati again. They really do go hard for him and Vorderman don't they? His "crime" this time? Campagingin against the Rwanda bill. Funny how former head of the armed forces signs the same petition and the hard right don't go after him too
