    Claudia Winkleman … can’t dance, can’t sing and has worse ‘jokes’ than Ant & Dec … a million pound a year!

    And she’s presenting equally talentless and virtually unknown ‘celebrities’ who also can’t dance …

    … imagine going down your local to find that ‘the entertainment’ is someone baking scones ffs <laugh>

    And the scheduling man....I've been visiting a friend of mine,bedbound,sitting up watching daytime TV as his only outlet,....every day watching Dion Dublin acting out his obsession with mouldy kitchens,or someone trawling round a boot sale looking to buy someone's junk for £5,and jumping around when they sell it for £6,and,how many times can you watch someone cook a chicken! It's ****ing pitiful!

    Wonders, the NE of England got a mention today on R4 weather forecast, the latent power of 606 knows no bounds.

    On the topic of disliked celebrities:

    Claire Balding, now on every program on TV, she might be a lovley lady, but I can't stand her, for no logical reason.

    A case of the jobs for the boys, her career path was helped greatly by her families status.

    Johnathan Ross, slimey horrible are licking twat who should have been sacked after what he and Russel Brand did to Andrew Saches, instead, the head of BBC radio 2 and Radio 6 got the chop as a scape goat

    Was down there today and the amount of dog toffee and empty beer cans/bottles was disgusting. From the Wolsey to the Roker hotel, it was littered with bottles and cans just stood up on walls. Then the walk was just dog **** city, there was even a chunk somehow pushed up onto the wall ffs.

    I thought this neck of the woods was absolutely nipping???

    The big idea: What’s the real key to a fulfilling life?

    What if I told you that we could all be rich? Not in dollars or pounds, yen or rupees, but a completely different type of currency. A currency measured in experiences, adventures, lessons learned and stories told. As a social psychologist, I have dedicated my research career to a simple, but universal question: what makes for a good life, and how can we achieve it? For much of human history, we have been presented with two possibilities: pursuing a life of happiness, or a life of meaning. Each of these paths has its benefits and proponents, but decades of psychological research have also revealed their limits...

    Normally avoid the weekly shop like the plague but relented on Saturday, since when have carrier bags became more expensive than gold !!! I nearly choked when the wife grabbed a handful and scanned them and it was over 2 quid !! Someone is making a killing, they gave them away for free at one time

    Sure I once read that any price above the tiny production cost was just supermarket profit. Wouldn’t mind as much if that money went to maybe research how to get all plastic out of the sea . Ironic that we aren’t allowed free plastic bags but lots of the stuff we put in them are double wrapped in the stuff , on plastic one use trays etc

    If they were really bothered about the environment surely they would just stop selling them all together which would force people to bring their own. Making too much money out of them I reckon.
