There’s a Ladybird book for every occasion. “In 1850 there were quite a number of Football Clubs. Each club drew up its own rules at a special meeting. The rules were not the same for every club” From ‘The Story of Football’ Artist: Jack Matthew (Man City)

The difference in UK and US temperament is in the UK we “couldn’t care less” and the Yanks “could care less”. So the UK starts at complete disinterest, but the US has an innate level of enthusiasm that still has the capacity to move downwards. The Aussies, of course, don’t give a fuck.

Happy birthday to Toni Basil. Here's a clip of Bruce Conner's very cool 1966 film of her dancing to her song Breakaway, which became a collectable Northern Soul single. Watch a short documentary about the making of the video at youtu.be/5CHtEASlzG8 (THREAD)

Also, ex employer was taking ni from my pay for 2 years after I turned 66 (my pension age). Enjoyed telling the ACAS lady that, and that they have missed their SARS date too. I'm VERY brave today! In fact slightly arsey!
