If you have £1 and have 100% growth you have £2. If I have £10 and 0% growth I still have five times more than you. Hope that helps.

Radiohead predicted the findings of the 115 charges in 1997?

Yeah, but I love the idea that there are people who will genuinely think that, I dunno, Kazuo Ishiguro will watch this and think ‘could I have made Never Let Me Go more sad’? Or Cormac McCarthy will burn all his copies of The Road and throw his laptop into the sea.

Man City? Scott, it’s not the nightclub you think it is.

Oh, for sure it is, he’s dreadfully and transparently one-eyed on this subject and has been since the start.

Given he’s been the mouthpiece of the City PR, one could read Samuel writing this highlights a pivot from ‘we done nuffin wrong’ to ‘the rules were bad in the first place’. It’s a better argument from a comms point of view. Would also suggest City have little confidence in winning the appeal.

I think head-to-head, incident-free, Pidcock wins that race tbh. To chase back on and still attack as much as he did - that’s harder than Jorg’s day IMHO. All speculation obvs, not saying you’re wrong. 😊

Perhaps rank each for how they rate for a hard workout or a zone two sesh. Or Insta/aTikTok reviews to that effect. Needless to say, Bob Dylan’s Christmas album will be rock bottom of both. The Menzingers latest album - Everything I Ever Saw - is the best new one from this year.

Every time I do a turbo session I try and listen to a different album (a few exceptions over the years). Have just downloaded the Strava data and we’re sunny side of 400 now. Don’t know what I will do with this info when I’ve catalogued them 🤔

On the plus side, he will now have a nice rest during the tank season and come back when all the cap space and the number one pick are in the house. Plus Gordon and Wright can show whether they are worth keeping.

Here it’s simply to avoid using direct/director in the same sentence, no? I don’t hate it - l think the vast majority of people will understand its meaning contextually. See also ‘pilot’. That said, my old PR Week editor would’ve despised it too, so you’re not on an island!

Oh, for sure - not saying she isn’t - but what are we looking for here then, because everyone is hot in the correct place, right? I merely count them as a list folks - rightly or wrongly - might not consider traditional beauties, but are also awesome actresses.

David Quainton @dqstuff.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

I see there is a reply in similar lines on F McD as well. Clearly I’m not saying any of those mentioned don’t have beauty - but they aren’t trad Hollywood beauties, and certainly not now, as wonderfully as they have all aged. And to be super clear, none of the above is sarcasm.

Rodri absolutely furious with that penalty being given because, as we know, he doesn’t believe in retrospective punishment for clear wrongdoing.

If Man Utd have expressed an intention to sue Man City (and fair enough) surely they will also need to sack their current CEO given he was COO of City previously?

Yes to the soundtrack and yes to the movie. I love them both so much with all my heart and arms. Even the upbeat track - Zenzenzense - is such a banger it’s on my workout playlist.
