Another lad gone way too early, known him on and off since he was 14.
The funeral was today, and for the first time in years, l had a kebab at the end of the night, as it seemed like a good idea at the time. Which reminds me of this

Booze, news and views from a drunken opinionated fool who can't spell very well, may well repeat himself, and can't blame it on dislexia

Once gain the government are sown to be a bunch of lying self serving hypocrites as they were found guilty in The High Court today of failing to protect Care homes at the start of the pandemic, releasing people back into care from hospital when they had Covid. They also failed to provide enough PPE, probably because they were giving contracts to mates and party donners who couldn't provide them - billions of pounds worth of fraud that has been written off by dishy Rishi Sunak.
Plus, don't forget the amount of times the tory ministers, (especially Matt Hancock) said they put a 'Protective ring' around the care homes. As someone who has worked in care homes for over 25 years, that was complete bullshit, and anyone who said otherwise should be ashamed of themselves and resign from their posts immediately (as if that is ever going to happen).
The Daily Mail is one of the most odious newspapers in the UK, but you'd have liked to have thought even they wouldn't try and defend their misogynistic and sexist headlines about Angela Raynor, but nothing really surprises me about their coverage at any time, plus it's probably been put forward as a story to deflect from the partygate fines and Boris Johnson not resigning for misleading the house
Bunch of right wing bastards. Rather like The Sun, don't buy it.
I'm in no way a fan of Liverpool football club, but l do love the city and it's hatred of Tories, as exemplified here. Probably helps that l'm a Scouser.
Got to give respect where it's due, and in related news, l hope Everton stay up, despite the fact they are awful at the moment, as they were so nearly the team l grew up supporting, and l still have a soft spot for them.
Thank fuck for that! President Macron has won the French election, but it is certainly a worry that 42% voted for the right wing Russian backed fascist Le Pen (please stop calling her populist) and 28% couldn't be bothered to vote, despite what was at stake.
Toodle pipEveryone's going on about The Queen being 96, but l'm more interested in how well her horses are looking for their age.

What an amazing photograph by Mario Cea Sanchez. Only took six years and 720,000 shots to get it right.

A seemingly innocent non political questionnaire, regarding speeding in Hampstead. Until you get near the end. Bastards!

Not too sure why the guy getting castrated is looking so nonplussed about it. My reaction would be somewhat different.

Enjoyed The Gang of Youths show at The Riverside last night, but l'm not that keen on the venue. It's difficult getting a drink, the toilets are upstairs, and you have to squeeze past the crowd to get up there, and you can't see much at the back. Nothing like the original Riverside which was a great little venue, and sadly missed.

I've recently had Covid and was off work for 10 days as l kept testing positive and work with vulnerable people. Luckily it didn't affect me much and l was off with full pay, so all was good with me, but I was still amazed it lasted so long.
Toodle pipI buy a lot of books, and many of them are second hand ones from charity shops. Often there will be old bookmarks and bits of paper left inside, but a recent book had this photograph in it.
I now have loads of questions. Who is it? Where was it taken? How long ago? Who is the cartoon figure? Do they want it back? Do I look like a pervert if l keep it? (I keep everything).
I wanted something to relax with and read, not a headache.
I obviously blame the Tories.
