Ah no problem, as a football fan a Smoggy to me is a Middlesbrough FC fan, hey ho.

Don't forget Smoggies are Yorkshire folk.

I too don't like football, I'm a Hull City fan!

Each to their it own, I have my tea weak, so weak I often threaten to put the teabag in the water!.

My mother in law has power supplies by eon next, last week her latest bill arrived, '£55 in credit as read by smart meter. It's a very 'smart' meter as she doesn't have one and I supply them with her readings.

There's some fantastic interpretations of what was said when you have subtitles on. Recently our local BBC newsman said 'these stories tomorrow at half past six' subtitles had it as 'these stories tomorrow at happy sex'!

Scotland should be applauded for their recent brave stand against tyranny. This time, brave Scotland have ceded their place in the finals to Ukraine (if they beat Wales) because of the war there - oh yeah, there's the Qatar boycott as well. In 2018, in protest at Russian aggression against Ukraine, they boycotted the finals there. In 2014, in protest at deforestation of the Amazon, they boycotted the finals in Brazil. In 2010, uncomfortable with continued inequality in South Africa, those finals were boycotted. In 2006, still angry about them bombing Shugie's Gran's chippy in Clydebank, they boycotted the finals in Germany. In 2002, as part of a campaign for a peaceful resolution of the Dokdo Islands dispute, they boycotted the finals in Japan and Korea. I know that there is widespread disapproval in Scotland of the unfair USMCA deal that replaced NAFTA. If this is not addressed in the next four years, they will boycott the US-Canada-Mexico finals in 2026. I hope a decent country can host the 2030 World Cup so Scotland can attend. But let's applaud their strong moral stance over the last 20 years.

Sods law.

I've got a dashcam which is motion activated when the engine is off. When you have the cam fitted it's surprising how many times you could put footage on one of those YouTube sites.

We're there from 24th-31st, we're heading south on the 25th!

A smartass once told me it is twice the length from the centre to any of the ends.

Haddock only from a chip shop, thank you.

Fully agree with Mouldy, especially about Barton Broad been confusing. We're on the Broads next month and will be crossing Breydon, as with the last twice we've visited the week before we go I'll be phoning GY yacht station asking them the best time to cross, even though we have the tide times chart.

Yorkshire saying, don't go without a coat until May is finished. 🙂

I'm sure it'll be running again very soon. Best of luck getting to the docks, just three and a half years left before completion of the A63 road works! 😜

The Pride of Hull left the Humber tonight to sail to Holland, it's believed no passengers or cargo were onboard.

Our local rag is reporting that the new crew will been paid £2.60 an hour, shameful. The old crew should have upped anchor and anchored in the Humber, failing that sent for a Ukrainian chief engineer!

We had food there in May, and it was very nice. Memo to self, When leaving Cantley make sure the boat is actually in gear, giving the throttle more revs doesn't work, especially when the boat ends up sideways on! Luckily only two other boats were there, and I realised my mistake in time.

You're not correct because you claimed if the situation were reversed everyone would claim Hamilton won it fair and square, I'm not everyone and wouldn't be claiming that. You also claimed that everyone diverted away from the answer, I didn't. You're all over the place, still, you are a Verstappen fan!

No you're not correct, and everyone has not diverted away from question, I answered your question shortly after you asked it.

I wouldn't have been happy at all. That said Mercedes should drop their appeal and threat of legal action. Hamilton showed a lot of class and good grace yesterday, follow suit Toto. It's happened, move on.

Further Christmas earning: If you receive an email with a link to the Elton John and Ed Sheeran Christmas record, don't open it. It could be a link to the Elton John and Ed Sheeran Christmas record.

Our dog is also raw fed, he won't touch pork or lamb though. He loves tripe, and the odd bit of cheese.

54% of statistics are correct, the other 48% are dubious.

It was all going so well, until your last line. I just hope Verstappen doesn't do a decent Schumacher impression in the remaining races,as he was halfway to one on Sunday.
