Ahead of tonight's #England game, we just had to share this gem. Up for sale in our @peterhook auction in October.
Three never before heard #WorldInMotion raps from Barnes, Gazza and (you have to hear this) Peter Beardsley.
Enjoy.

Had the same mobile number for years. Never had a spam phone call or message. Switched to 02 a few weeks ago and now I'm getting them regularly. Hhhhmmmm.

Great QI fact: In 2012 George Michael got pneumonia, went into a coma, and woke up with a West Country accent.

Pub last night had been told it would have to close because toasties don’t count as a substantial meal. (Whoever drew up that rule has never been a student.) Made us wonder though whether if it was rebranded as a panini, that would count.

One thing I heard yesterday is that GM had asked for £15m a month on the furlough/self employment side. Apparently govt view is that this in reality means £90m, costed over six months. Which does rather suggest we wouldn’t be coming out of T3 any time soon

More from a different friend about yesterday: ‘Hilarious that our officials went out full Northern yesterday in their macs. Statement.’

Just learnt Greater Manchester will be placed into tier 2 restrictions via twitter. Apparently there was a government briefing for GM MPs but I can’t provide details because I wasn’t invited. I suspect this is because they don’t know where Wigan is. What an absolute shambles

Who needs to slap on moisturiser when you can just eat dripping, lard, butter and olive oil?
