Great stuff

Ffs. What a game. Crazy.

I think a 10.97 meter being awarded would be a bit of a mouthful.

In Germany a penalty is called an Eleven Metre. There we are.

Insects ARE animals

What a career George Cole had: just look at the characters he played that people have taken to: he’s a bit of a Flash Harry, he’s a right Arthur Daley, a dodgy motor, Terence my son, oh my gawd it’s Chisholm and his dragon and so on. His very occasional malapropisms in Minder crease me up...

Simply one of the finest TV shows ever made. Brilliant scripts and plots, tremendous acting from not just the main two but a stellar supporting cast of pretty big names: Billy Connolly, Richard Griffiths, Suzi Quattro etc. I’m a bit surprised it’s not been exported to other countries: if they...

Dull attention-craving loser. Good riddance to him and his Tory-enabling shower.

Well it sounds like he didn’t suffer too much financially from that scam then. Good on him. Some lovely death sticks in the German market at that time: HB, Astor and the super strong Roth Händle, whose purple packets are/were a work of art.

Watch showjumping. I wasn’t that into it but you couldn’t really avoid it on telly. And then suddenly it disappeared.

It was the old 5p coins that were the same size as the old 1DM coins - which at the time I was living there was worth about 25p, ie 4DM to the pound. The bureaux de change in Dover used to run out of them, such was the demand. How we never got rumbled I’ll never know: the only part-British...

Thing is the club wouldn’t do those Buzz’s quiz things if the team spirit wasn’t genuinely as good as it is: they all obviously enjoy doing them and we get to see how they all get on well behind the scenes. Welbeck’s obviously a terrific player but also clearly a tremendous guy in a team with a...

If so let’s hack the account and send them to Donatellos.

Man they are serious about getting some seafood. Mind you the scallops in there are to die for.

Was he the referee?

In the Germany squad for games against France and NL, alongside Kaiser Pascal Der Grosse:

This is just exactly how it must come across when I try to explain cricket to my American in-laws.

I had a great time there despite having to work a bit. But, ffs, for all its astounding cultural riches, I’d really like the place a lot more if I didn’t get fuxking ill pretty much whenever I go there - something that simply doesn’t happen to me in any other European country or even in other...

Can’t remember which game in 1997 it was but remember walking away from a despondent Goldstone Ground thinking “that’s it. It’s all over. We can try our best to fight it but realistically we’re screwed. It’s all over.”. We’d lost on and off the pitch. No hope, no ground. Except we hadn’t lost...

It’s a Roman epic! Can’t wait.
