Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 13hIt's a small world! I had a friend on X who had worked as a biologist in the same chicken processing factory in Suffolk where my father was MD! 030
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 13hYou cannot have sausage and chips without beans, touching everything else on the plate. 160
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 13hHave you seen this @samanthasearrings.bsky.social ? I know you follow them on here! 110
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 15hMy great grandparents were from the UK, Ireland, Poland and Sweden and there is nothing special about me. 120
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 16hSo am I, we are all descended from immigrants and are multicultural. Henry is a French name and the name Stephen - or Steve - was made famous by an American film star. 140
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 16hI have looked at that picture several times now, in cold horror. I have finally come up with a caption for it: Mad Bint! My brain has switched to Geordie - Sunderland version, natch. 050
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 18hThanks, I have a couple of her other books. I will get that one too. 010
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 19hThe latter, obvs. She and her work. I have never met her but my daughter-in-law met her briefly at an event in Bath. She said it was easy to get her attention because she was holding a baby, my grandson, at the time! 010
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 19hI am watching Alice Roberts on PBS America. She is examining the archaeological evidence for the existence of King Arthur because the written evidence is so unreliable. Fascinating. Could I live without Alice Roberts, hmm? 250
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 20hMy grandmother, whose house was always clean and tidy, shocked me towards the end of her life by saying that she had never ironed my grandad's clothes. She had always bought him clothes made of synthetic materials so she could just hang them up after washing! 000
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 21hI could not live without tea, then coffee in the morning. There are worse things to be dependent on! 140
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 22hI have never lived in road before where there were so many roadworks or people doing modifications to their houses. The noise drives me nuts. Apart from that it is great living here! 020
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 22hMorning everyone btw. I could not concentrate earlier because there was a noisy machine in the road outside - engaged in roadworks or construction work. It has stopped now and I can concentrate on things. 130
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 22hMorning Isabel. Yes, your body cannot be expected to maintain its homeostasis without coffee: It's important! 130
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 22hYes, I saw one of the replies and skim read another one. That is why I wrote what I wrote. 010
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 22hIt is personal. I don't have to define innocent on here. I am just illustrating how the system works. 010
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 23hI know what you mean, Matthew. Scargill played right into her hands and so did Derek Hatton. 290
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 23hYes, I know of a case in real life where a Tory Cabinet Minister from the 70s - 80s simply phoned all the newspaper editors and threatened them with dire consequences if they printed any stories about his son's love life. That's how the Establishment works. 230
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Have you seen these, @wulfhelm.bsky.social ? I think there are more on here too. 000
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I think I have had a few like that too. I just ignore them now. 030
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026And Dezza Hatton, here in Liverpool, though I could not stand him! 040
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I still swear at her when they show old film of her on TV. It is a reflex action and I can't stop it now. 5420
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026And what would you say is your greatest strength when it comes to selling your manifesto to a terrified electorate? 020
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I used to get the chinless wonders Raab and Hunt muddled up in the last Conservative government. 020
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026You did not finish telling us about the scandal which Partick Thistle Hibernian Academicals is involved in. Has it made the national papers yet? 000
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Thanks, another Tory with a foreign name telling us that the British are superior to every other nation on earth? 000
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Ah, what I used to call an "off-the-peg Tory" then. I don't know if anyone still uses that phrase about clothes - but you only have to look at someone like Rees-Mogg to know that he is a Tory. 130
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026But, he moves in the shadows so that his victims will not see him coming! 010
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Who TF is he? I would be grateful if anyone could answer this question for me, please. 110
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I said much the same thing to my wife this morning while she was watching LK. She just said, "You don't have to listen to it!" 040
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 04/10/2026He is a tuxedo cat too, like the one in the Gif He is the first cat I have ever had so I am still learning the ways of cats. 120
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 03/10/2026My wife shouted at the bow on his costume every time he came on screen. She couldn't stand it! 020
Reposted by Stephen OldM.C. @mcmgoptimist.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Looking for @justagain.bsky.social. If anyone here is from #Thurso, #Caithness and knows Tom Newton can you please send a message? We haven't heard from Tom in three months and are now really worried. Please also repost! Thanks a million ❤️ @wulfhelm.bsky.social maybe you can also repost. 043
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 03/10/2026A book which will really occupy your mind! It's either that or Heinz Tomato Soup! 020
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I apologise for my previous misspelling of anarcho-syndicalist commune. I thought it was wrong, as soon as I had typed it. 010
Stephen Old @stephenold.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Chicken and chips here. Tom the cat likes chicken! 160
