Let me help Sir

Thanks - I've been a member since 31st March 2011 so I can probably wait

Okay after many happy years on this forum avatar free I have decided it is time to add an appropriate image. However I keep getting this message 'There was a problem processing the uploaded file. -200' The image is about 40KB so I don't think it is a size problem - any ideas?

Performing a song for mid term elections See last section of article and video.

Fuck I must be losing it, that made me well up.

To be fair they were heard to be shouting to him to mooooove.

I have this silly theory about cancer that it is the smoke that gives you cancer not the food itself. So meat gives you cancer because you eat it cooked, particularly food that is eaten on barbecues, whereas stuff you eat raw (fruit, vegetables, nuts) doesn't. Smoking obviously therefore gives you cancer because you are inhaling smoke (if my theory is correct smoking paper with nothing in it would give you cancer, the nicotine is irrelevant) and hence smoking weed also gives you cancer. Cannabis oil is not smoked and therefore this could make all the difference.

RIP As per the link played in the Great Escape game where Jimmy Glass (the goalie) scored in 94th minute to keep Carlisle in the Football League. Mary and me might have been planning to ruin each others Unique for 2019 - no matter now.

McCain Wants Greenspan, Dead Or Alive

My like is for the 'so he was' not the fact he has taken ill.

When these actors started appearing I thought wtf - smacked of a bit of desperation, like they knew the episode wasn't good enough on it's own to make new people who had tuned in just to see a female Doctor stick with it. Based on Mrs GUN deciding after half an hour that she had had enough they were probably right. Be interesting to see how the viewing figures* compare next week. * Is TV all about viewing figures? No. Is Prime Time weekend TV all about viewing figures? Yes.

See they managed to ensure his left hand was in front of her

Was he a DJ?

On Loose Women today Whole interview with him was conducted with the banner underneath him reading John McCririck: 'I'm Not Dying' I took a photo of TV screen on my phone hence rubbish quality. Methinks he doth protest too much. (Still had same ridiculous hat and jacket on too).

As a child I watched Jon Pertwee through to Peter Davison and stopped during Colin Baker which might have been more to do with drinking on a Saturday night than Colin Baker. Then I started watching again at the relaunch with Christopher Ecclestone and David Tennant but stopped very quickly with Matt Smith. Last night I watched it out of curiosity because Jodie Whittaker is both a good actor and, of course, the first female Doctor. I was desperate to like it but was left a little indifferent. I just didn't care enough when the old lady died, or when the target boy was going to get taken by the tooth faced monster, or by Bradley's funeral speech or by anything really. Doctor Jodie seems to be inhabiting the same Doctor genes as David Tennant, intense and frantic with a sense of humour but (as it did sometimes with Tennant too for me) it all seemed a bit overacted and forced. Anyhow as per my first para I'm not a massive Doctor fan so I will give her another week or two. From memory the first episode of a new Doctor are always a little bit clunky because they have to often get new companions introduced and given a story and a background. Things I did like - the monster with the tooth embedded in its face from each of its victims, the clothes shop nod towards the fact that she was a woman and liked shopping. Things I wonder and don't know - in previous Doctor changes has the new Doctor appeared with their new outfit already on or do they always wear the clothes of the previous Doctor and then need to change into clothes of their choice?

Wonder if Kate and Gerry snuggle up together and watch The Cry on a Sunday night?

Paul Meisak died last Wednesday - announced on 5Live this morning and they did a little piece on him.

I'm really hoping 'thirst' is a typo

Is there a Celebrity Big Brother roll call thread? According to Wiki there have been 276 contestants. These are the ones I can think have already died. Ken Russell Jade Goody Pete Burns Verne Troyer Keith Chegwin David Gest So 270 left - looking at the list there's a theme team in there for sure.

Actually a very well worded argument - completely different to her normal drivel. And we all know to watch out for the next update in 6 weeks. Sounds like she has a good chance of making 2019 now.

Although he obviously hasn't bought any new over garments that fit his new slimmer figure I'm hoping he's at least renewed his underpants drawer.

100 Years ago today it was up up and away for French aviator Roland Garros one day before his 30th birthday and one month before the end of the First World War. I had always presumed he was a tennis player but the stadium where they play the French Open was simply named after him.
