I wonder if why the fucked up thug around the corner from me has changed his george's cross on his front door + window for the Flemish flag of nazi wehrmacht/ss collaboration, cos you don't get arrested for that innit?

Lol he's been down an online rabbit hole for sure

Think the rule with the Flanders lion is:

If the claws are red
It's all in your head
If black be the claw
You've a nazi next door

Guardsmen faint during Trooping the Colour rehearsal as temperatures hit 26C

This picture is surely going to become a caption meme.

Think Vlaams Belang use the black-clawed one too, and they’ve been in the news a lot recently.

Like I know the Guardsmen’s thing is not wavering or breaking position whatsoever, but the second picture where a group of others have rushed to help him while the guardsmen just stand there is so strange.

It's almost as if the military is for dicks

to get summer off to a good start we're giving 10 lucky people a year's supply of Greggs sausage rolls. Simply go to VeryMe Rewards on the My Vodafone App

"we ran the numbers and they'll almost certainly kill themselves within a month one way or another."

i've entered that, idgaf

how many is a year's supply of greggs sausage rolls?

one a day for 365 days apparently. not particularly into sausage rolls but hey winter is coming

just get the frozen ones from Iceland, that'll save you a few quid.

$6.99 isn't my idea of cheap

I'll have you know I made a gorgeous braised beef/pork ragu for dinner, with some real cheap Tesco wine from the box.

Mark Rylance: always ask "what would the Bard say"

I recently let the RSC know that I feel I must resign as I do not wish to be associated with BP any more than I would with an arms dealer, a tobacco salesman or anyone who wilfully destroys the lives of others alive or unborn. Nor, I believe, would William Shakespeare

Real Wales, "Swansea bench branded 'stupidest in Mumbles'"
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-48689203

while luvvie protest often leaves me cold, i’ve got a soft spot for rylance. obv a really good actor, he’s also a soft, softly spoken, old mystic and walks his jack russells round brockwell park wearing parti-coloured clothes and an odd felt hat, likes arthur machen. the sort of real england i can get behind. probably has as good an internal feeling for shakespeare as anyone, despite a laughably bad 12th Night i saw him direct once, so i’m backing him on this.

if only more of england was as real as rylance tbh

some tory muppet on the radio last night was saying it was a hypocritical move by him because he is an AS apologist by dint of publicly stick up for corbyn recently. Which even if true someone could easily be both an AS apologist and be an environmentalist at the same time without any hypocrisy.

anyway fuck 'em, he might do some absolute garbage movies but he's a class actor and seems like a class act.

more Real Wales (linked from the previous)

"A distinctive 1930s ice cream kiosk which was painstakingly repaired after a car crashed into it 10 years ago has been granted listed building status."

Sweet but I'm not sure we want to open the potential can of worms that is Real Wales.

. probably has as good an internal feeling for shakespeare as anyone

except on the authorship question.

Real Wales is by definition indistiguishable from Real England imo
