Interesting footnote to the sad passing of Juan Izquierdo (not our Izquierdo). Sounds like Jonathan would have fitted well here.
Quote: Sao Paulo’s center forward, the Argentine Jonathan Calleri, arrived at the hospital later that evening. He offered to pay for all of Izquierdo’s medical...
My dad was 93 when he was told he had prostate cancer. The GP said 'oh well, you've had a good innings'. My dad replied 'bugger that, I wasn't planning on going anywhere'. And he didn't for another 4 years.
Here's the link to her Wiki page.

There's quite a bit of interesting stuff and clearly she was very accomplished. My picture of two robins with blackberries amongst the brambles sounds like a shift away from her usual subjects of still life and...
I have recently been fortunate to acquire a painting by Annie Feray Mutrie. A Victorian artist who died in Brighton in 1893. It passed from my grandmother to my sister to me and has been in our family for as long as my sister can remember, at least 70 years. But the painting is dated 1890 just 3...
Presumably it isn't corruption to award £ billions of taxpayers money to cave in to ministers mates/unions who back Labour and demand inflation busting rises for their members in return for their votes and just going to work? Is this not just the Labour version of cronyism? After all, there is a...

Thanks for tips, I'm relieved too. Funnily enough, I was checking out the Twisters Soundtrack yesterday. Twister is one of my favourite films. But the 2024 soundtrack looks my type of music.
Today, I saw this and love how much joy Sounds Incorporated get from playing with him. As a kid, I...
Love the enthusiasm of HWT that he could barely wait till past midnight to post for today. That's why I still prod music fans who hope to slip in a couple on one day. Some days, I would post 5 songs if I could, but that's not the point of the thread. So here's the one for today, prompted by...
According to the latest edition of Uncut Magazine, the new album by Fontaines DC is about to shift them out of bands no one knows and into the mahoosive band bracket.
Here is Starburster from that album, Romance.
More to the point, what is it with some of our fans (not aiming this at you specifically) and Alzate? A bog average squad midfielder who played a few games and wasn't good enough to hold down a place. Released at the end of his contract like so many others who weren't good enough. Free. Nada...
