General Public - Are You Leading Me On?

I work in a sector that could be described in these terms. Many years ago I was running a conference where one of the speakers had given backword at the 11th hour and we had an hour-long plenary session to fill. So we quickly came up with a fun event that we called 'Mock the Geek', which was loosely based on housing knowledge (it was a social housing conference) with two hastily press-ganged teams of housing professionals and me being the quiz master and MC. One of the panelists was an ex boss of mine, a woman in her 50s and a right pain in the arse tbh. She hadn't changed much and was not really getting into the spirit of the session and as I wandered over to another one of my ex colleagues on the front row who had also endured her as a boss and said to him "I see she hasn't discovered HRT yet then" I realised within a nanosecond that I hadn't muted my lapel mic and the whole audience heard it. Cue the tumbleweed with about 300 stern - nay vicious - middle aged female faces staring up at me (including my then wife lol) and for years afterwards whenever anyone had any sort of embarrassing moment at that organisation it was described as their 'HRT moment'.......

I hope the move goes better for Al Davies than it did for the last local sports star that decided he'd be better off joining Birmingham rather than remaining with his home club.

The Jam - Saturday's Kids

Yes. At Kilmarnock with the lying lip-licking Scottish crook at the helm, despite us winning the game either 4-1 or 5-1.

Bachman Turner Overdrive - You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet

Most of my guys did okay but well done to Morikawa, brilliant achievement to win two majors at the first time of asking.

The Jam - It’s Too Bad

RIP Ironman George Curtis, also 81, who captained Coventry and was joint manager for their historic 1987 FA Cup Final win.

RIP Tom O’Connor who has died at the age of 81. He was a mainstay of TV in the 80s. By the standards of the day a very gentle comedian.

Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer

Paul Weller - The Changing Man

The Commodores - Three Times a Lady

The commentators reckoned some of the fielders were struggling to pick the ball up in the low sunlight and/or the glare off the various glass windows for much of the game. Alex Davies seemed to suffer a couple of times and even one where we held the catch, the fielder shook his head as if to say “I didn’t really see it”

He’s about 63 or 64 I think.

He hasn't been out of work for the past 4 years, I don't know where this has come from.

Andy Lewis ft Paul Weller - Are You Trying To be Lonely?

Louis Oosthuizen's form in the majors this year has been very good, he just doesn't seem able to close one out. Hovland is a good bet, as is Speith. But if I were to stick my neck out and pick a winner it would have to be Koepka. Even at 75% he has the game to win major tournaments. An incredible player.

Ronnie Lane and Slim Chance - How Come?

The 'carry forward' points are Lancs 16.5 and Yorks 4.5 I believe. So in a way Yorks have been punished as they have deprived themselves of improving their points carry forward, as well as reducing ours. Lancs in a healthy position going into the last 4 games.

The Small Faces - My Mind's Eye

You don't need commentary to know that Lancs are well on top 😜🍻

Madam 😂😂

Ee bah gumboots 😂😉
