@cg__ A weekend trip to Cologne. We didn’t manage to get any game tickets this time. Best thing about that photo: it looks like an Austrian fan lording it over 2 defeated Poles. Turns out the 2 seated guys are the Austrians. The standing guy is a butcher from Wythenshawe
Old telephone exchanges. Early to mid-C20th blocks that on the outside resemble ordinary residential buildings. But when you look inside are jammed with heavy-duty multi-storey tech. Seems at the same time both old-fashioned and futuristic.
@jmarmaduke Yes. Sat there an awful long time… the shelf started resembling the unused end of the subs bench. Happy New Year’s Eve, Paul 👍
Photo 1: London Fire Brigade at St Paul’s Cathedral? 1666? Photo 2: Nobody panic.
@cg__ @FootballCliches Brilliant… I see the 1998-99 season makes it in there. Probably the most storied season of recent times. Below: one from the ongoing clear-out. A heartbreaker. Gills’ first game at Wembley, and the start of Man City’s inexorable rise.
@matriches @cg__ I would’ve thought Austin Poe would be more up your street 🐦⬛
Found this cache of old cinema tickets when clearing out. Some fit the full film name on the stub, others not. Friday quiz… without searching, can you get every one?
@cg__ 👍 The Out-of-Towners - a Steve Martin remake of a 70s comedy. Talking of 70s shows, I’ve found another one just for you:
…Actually, scrub that. Keeping this - it’s amazing. Looking forward to the looks it’ll get on the commute too
Clearing out today, I found this pile of every Bond film to 2006. On DVD too - doubly anachronistic. No idea how they got there. Headed for a charity shop soon. But not before I’ve thrown in a few films from the box set on the right. There’s an alternative leading man for you ☘️
Is it just me, or do the concrete sculptures outside London’s City Thameslink station look more cheerful in the rain…?
You’re late for a flight, gate’s closed, departure time is up. Last last call. You board, passing rows of people waiting in their seats. The experience: A) mortifies you B) makes you feel powerful People answering B should probably never be put in charge of anything important.
