    Look North News on Sunderland

    How do they manage to name drop Mogga, as being a departed fans favorite, during the Beale sacking story, and not mention his illness. They described him as being Birmingham’s current manager… The story of his illness is more that 12 hours old at this point. Not relevant or just lazy?

    Motorhome holiday

    Thinking of booking a motorhome hire, for a week, to do a bit of touring. Just for two of us. Any advice or recommendations? Probably touring Scotland - we’ve not been past Edinburgh to date… I would have prefered a vehicle with an automatic gearbox, but they seem rare…

    What is the smallest amount of time that would be life changing for you?

    You can always find more money… time though. Not so much. I was living in a bedsit, going nowhere aged 16, when my sister called my Dad in London and basically said “Do something about this!” 6 weeks later and I’m in a hostel in London and working as a labourer. 2 minutes that changed my life...

    Robson Green’s Weekend Escapes

    I got this programme completely wrong. I thought it was “Robson Green: Weekend Escapes”, and some sort of reality evasion game, where celebrities tried to avoid Robson Green at the end of an exhausting week tolerating him… Think they missed a trick ( alongside Youth Hosteling with Chris Eubank)

    Wagamama vegan protein food

    We often go to Wagamama Leicester when visiting, but having the new one open at Teesside park has given more opportunity to try different things. Quite surprised how good the vegan stuff is. Pretty convincing meat alternatives.

    Music stand

    No idea where to buy one locally. What has happened to our music shops - it’s criminal really. I suppose Steve James may have one, but there used to be at least four places locally to buy this sort of thing. Any suggestions would be welcome. I need it for tomorrow…

    To encourage my daughter to sit with us later…

    I said she could pick a movie that we could all sit and enjoy together. She’s 23 and we’re not interesting enough. So, if anyone is interested in an honest film review, I’ll be able to answer any questions later, about Barbie: The Movie. What have I done?

    London’s fireworks…

    Oh. That’s where the HS2 money was redirected to. It was televised nationally. Feeling very levelled up.

    If you have a few days off…

    How will you use them? Not everyone has a lot of time off at this time of year, I am lucky enough to always be off for ten days or so. So, what to do? My daughter’s home, so some mouching together, for sure. Learning jazz guitar chords (Specific to me atm), reading Three Men in a Boat -...

    Are Newcastle bottling it again?

    Good game of football.

    I would have preferred something out of the game, obviously, but playing away to an in-form and recently relegated side makes it a game where losing isn’t a surprise. Add to that 7 or 8 first team players out, or ineligible, conceding a penalty and then the sending off. That we almost got a...

    Disabled Parking Permit

    Has anyone any experience of applying for one? Mother in Law is 89 and (as mentioned previously) has early stages of Alzheimer’s and dementia in addition to using a wheelchair. Mrs Hap does all of her driving for her. Can she apply for a permit for her car to use when driving her mother? I’m...

    The Championship is so unpredictable

    We wouldn’t get this drama in the Prem. We were dead last and some quarters felt Carrick was failing. Now, alongside Leicester we look like the form side and, only 2 points off the playoffs. All well before Christmas. Bonkers, but entertaining.

    New Original Music

    My little songwriting project is nearing its end. One more to finish after this, I think, but this one is finally finished after a lot of time. Hope it’s enjoyed. Bit of fun, if time consuming! https://soundcloud.com/kirklevington/love-you-the-best

    Normandy Visit base suggestions

    I’m looking for a good location to base ourselves, for a long weekend trip to visit the WW2 beaches and memorials. I don’t know the area at all. Does anyone have any recommendations for a decent small town, with good bars and eateries? Three of us going - just after a quiet beer and nice food...

    New original song

    Bit of harmless fun. Latest song from my daft noodlings. It's just a hobby init? You might like it - maybe not... :LOL: https://soundcloud.com/kirklevington/home

    Song Lyrics - feedback always appreciated

    I've just finished writing the music to this and hopefully recording it next week. I've tried writing stuff about the town before and it's so easy to sound hackneyed or derived. I feel this is better. (FYI the guy, who is painting the bridge is wearing the St Christopher, although it does also...

    Great songs that didn’t get enough recognition

    I think this is a great song and band. The wife says she has never heard of them! Powerful imho Some songs don’t land as well as they should - promotion, timing…
