celebrating liverpool versus manchester united

Yesterdays game was pretty damn good and it's the best Manchester United have played for ages. Maguire should have won it for United at the end but still buzzing with the draw. Obviously l watched it and celebrated in my local, as can be seen by my spends below, and it was worth the trudge down in the snow, but it wasn't a patch on the New Years day celebrations (billed on the 2nd). Good job l'm indestructible.

the enquiry into the grooming gangs

 As the far right increase calls for an enquiry into the grooming gangs, l'm old enough to remember this from many years ago (2022). Obviously the Tories and Reform know about this (not sure about Elon Musk), but they are prepared to blatantly lie just to stir up crap and try to discredit Labour.

And in related news, remember (which he now denies saying) this?

As the toffs and 'Man of the People' Nigel Farage attend their Boxing Day hunts, lets cross our fingers and toes, and hope that the hunters who are breaking the hunting laws get prosecuted with all the vigour and harsh sentences that the Just Stop Oil protesters were.  Reader, don't hold your breath in anticipation - they won't.

nyc firefighters upset with donald trump

I the least surprising news of the day, NYC Firefighters who supported Donald Trump are let down by him and Elon Musk, while the wealthy are to receive tax cuts. Who could possibly have predicted things would turn out this way? Look on the bright side - it will only get worse, and all the dickheads who voted for this partnership from Hell deserve what they reap. It's going to be one mindfuck of a presidential term for many of his supporters, and the poorer ones will suffer.

the bbc platforming the far right

I couldn't agree with this more. I'm sick to death of seeing Nigel Farage on Question time and various news shows, and the 'think tanks' from Tufton Street should be made to declare where their funding comes from to promote their right wing capitalist views. There's also the amount of journalists from the right wing press that are constantly platformed, and don't get me started on GB 'News'. No wonder l drink.

me watching manchester united recently

It's been frustrating watching Manchester United recently (apart from the end of the City game), but at least there's now a relegation battle to keep me interested. When l've said l preferred football in the 1970's, l didn't mean l wanted Manchester United to go back to being as crap as they were at the start of that decade. Be careful what you wish for.

I foolishly starated sorting some crap out to re-do some rooms, and l realise now l should have concentrated on one room at a time, as my kitchen currently has boxes full of books, CD's and DVD's stacked in it, and the rooms in question are still a mess. Looks like l'll have plenty to keep me occupied when l am off work at the start of January. Yippee!

a new ball cock (fnaaar)

As my small outside pipe was dripping (fnaar) l had to call in a plumber to fit a new ball cock (fnaaar again), as there was no way l was going into the attic to fight off the spiders and do it myself. It cost £90 and l curse life in general when things go wrong, but it's much better than me crapping my pants in the attic (and probably not doing the job right anyway). Here's the offending problem. Cursed at and binned.

the spirited subtitles are rubbish

I've recently enjoyed watching the Australian series 'Spirited', with a sparkling performance by Peep Show's Super Hans (Matt King). In my view, the first series is better than the second, but the main gripe is with this abomination by whatever 12 year old is in charge of the subtitles. They've obviously never heard of Marc Bolan, but these kinds of things are important, and should be checked. Fetch my blunderbuss - l demand retribution!!
