I spent a lot of my working life staying in hotels around the country, to break the monotony I made some stickers to put inside the Gideons Bibles , it said , " spoiler He dies but gets better "
I love the way miracles work. You have some natural disaster (nothing to do with G of course) thousands die but then a dog gets saved and Hallelujah, it's a miracle!
This is well worth a watch. It's all about accents and dialects across Britain. Prompted by the Germans recording some British prisoners in the First World War so people can hear their relatives speaking from 1917. That's interesting and quite moving but the real star for me is the presenter and Voice Scientist, Joan Washington. She is just amazing with her mastery of accents. Sadly she has died. She was the wife of Richard E. Grant for 40 years.
There are many reasons why I love Mrs B...and they increased this morning when I heard her informing one of her colleagues... "When I get to your office, I don't want to see or hear about officers sitting around watching the funeral. Everywhere's shut, so today, we know where these bastards are going to be. Every able bodied officer needs to be out making arrests. When I arrive in custody, I want to see it overflowing..."
I would have been nice to see them cuff the blonde haired clown when he arrived at the Abbey and maybe the nonce prince after his mothers funeral
I thought how wonderful Joan Washington was and had no idea who she was when I first saw this programme, since her death Richard E Grant has done many tributes to his late wife
You may know that Richard has written a book due out on the 29th September. I have preordered a copy on Amazon.
The saturation coverage has created a new level of banality. There should be new word created by the OED to commemorate it in her honour.
Fun fact: the horny honey monster never announced his plans to visit Croydon beforehand, he just turned up ...apart from the time he got on an East Grinstead train at London Bridge instead, or at least that was the excuse he gave
Lloris also nominated for Save of the Month for his late on against Fulham. Danny Ward's save against us included, too.
Mark Lawrenson is accusing the BBC of being "woke" for unceremoniously sacking him after thirty years ****ing hell, thirty years of his ****ty commentary...
