Norfolk's Lauren Hemp has been appointed an MBE in the New Year Honours. Hemp grew up in North Walsham and began her football career at Norwich City Women. The 23-year-old scored and was named player of the match as England beat Australia in the World Cup semi-final in August 2023. The Lionesses were eventually beaten in the World Cup final by Spain.
Any of you watched any of the TV show on the Horizon Computer scandal on the Post Office on ITV? I knew about it from a while ago, but seriously knowing what happened and watching the programme (most of the way through the 2nd episode) and it makes my blood boil!
Have been watching a young female electric guitarist from Latvia playing Vivaldis four seasons. Absolutely mind blowing. Her name is Laura Lace. I advise you check it out.
Glad to see this moron got his comeuppance. Tyson Fury suffered a split-decision points defeat on a dramatic night in Saudi Arabia as Oleksandr Usyk became boxing's first four-belt undisputed heavyweight champion. On a grand stage and on a legacy-defining night, Briton Fury began well but was given a standing 10 count and saved by the bell after an Usyk onslaught in the ninth round. In a tense wait for the scorecards to be read out, Fury appeared convinced of victory before a stony-faced Usyk broke down in tears when he was confirmed as the winner. "I believe he won a few of the rounds, but I won the majority," a defiant Fury said in the ring. "His country is at war, so people are siding with the country at war. Make no mistake, I won that fight in my opinion." He added: "It was one of the daftest decisions in boxing. I'll be back." The scorecards read 115-112 and 114-113 for the Ukrainian, with a third judge scoring it 114-113 to Fury. Those comments are disgusting and says all you need to know about Fury.
Alfie Hewitt wins the Wimbledon Singles by 2 sets to love. What a great ambassador for disabled sport and Norfolk. Knighthood on the cards imo
Whars goin on Neul? From the Pink'Un and EDP today: “That want for possession-brd football is shared by the bulk of City’s squad, according to McLean ………” “Thorup has also touched on his desire to settle on a ‘br’ woven around key personnel in key positions.” “Once introduced, the record system aims to eliminate over-reliance on paper-brd records and vastly improve communication between the three hospitals.” By what quirk of what bit of technology does "base" become "br" and, correspondingly, "based" become 'brd" ? It's not just the local papers, it's all over the place.
