Bully boy China on the high seas...

Kudos to the Philippine coastguard ship which was protecting fishing boats nearby from the bully boy Chinese vessels who lay claim to most of the Pacific for some unknown reason. Asking the Chinese if they require medical help was hilarious! Watch to the end...

Rangers watch...
at 20:31 9 Aug 2025

Rangers head coach Russell Martin is still waiting for a Scottish Premiership victory and needed a late penalty from club captain James Tavernier to deny Dundee their first win at Ibrox in 24 years.

It leaves the Ibrox side without a win in their opening two league fixtures for the first time since 1989.

The home fans vented their fury at various points during the match, unhappy with the pace and intensity of play, even booing substitutions when Nico Raskin and Kieran Dowell were introduced after the break.

It led to an all-too-familiar soundtrack to a domestic game at Ibrox: boos from the home support.

that's some stuff straight out of Hollywood, wiping out long range bombers on four Russian airfields by pokey little drones hidden in the roof of trucks parked nearby!

Not bad for someone who has got no cards to play - eh Donald!

Bergen-Belsen - Liberated 80-years ago today...
at 12:56 15 Apr 2025

on April 15th, 1945 by British troops.

When my ship was paying a 5-day visit to Hamburg in 1979, I had the good fortune (me and a coachload of shipmates) to spend the day visiting Belsen concentration camp. Although I had only turned 18 a few months earlier, to this day, I will never forget the eeriness & the strange feeling of what happened there all those years earlier. Whenever I hear the word "Belsen" even today, my mind takes me back instantly to that day in 1979.

The main visitor centre contains many artefacts, numerous photos & testimonies - but when you walk through what's left of the camp and the main burial mounds where thousands are buried, the birds really don't sing like they say, even though the camp is in a forest.

For the past thirty or so years, I have been a dealer in all-things WW2 related - and that day at Belsen was the inspiration to learn everything I could about WW2 which still applies today. I guess some good came out of that day at the camp despite the history & human shame of events there. Auschwitz is on my 'to do' list of course. I have been to several famous WW2 locations in Europe but never quite made it to Poland... yet. It's on my 2026 list though. I can't walk very far these days so I'd better get a move on. Same goes for Arnhem & The Rhine Crossings. What I'd really love is a small camper home for me & the missus to tour Europe in... but that's out of our budget sadly what with everything else being so expensive thee days. I keep doing the lottery though, so, finger's crossed!

like many, I grew up with The Jam and they were my absolute heroes back in the day. I was fortunate enough to see them several times over the years. Sad to hear the passing of drummer Rick Buckler tonight aged 69. Thanks for the memories Rick. RIP.

nice sunny, t-shirt weather. Average daytime temperatures are in the high 80's Fahrenheit and mid-70's during the night in June. Chill out with a few mates in the 'fan zone' before the big game and enjoy a good chat, a good laugh, and a cold, refreshing ... ... erm... lemonade, coke or orange juice. No beer... none... zilch.

Nah. Not for me thanks FIFA. No doubt you'll still make mi££ions and mi££ions out of it though.

Feyenoord 3 Bayern Munich 0 in the Champions League tonight.

Feyenoord had 20% possession with Bayern 80%.

Just goes to show (are you listening Russell Martin?)... what a load of bollocks all this possession based crap is after all. It's what you DO with the ball that matters.

Billy Davies (Derby 2007-08) v Russell Martin (Saints) Food for Thought...
at 11:07 27 Oct 2024

"In Davies's first season as Derby manager he led them to third place in the league and won the play-offs after defeating Southampton in the semi-finals and then West Bromwich Albion at Wembley Stadium, ending Derby's five-year absence from the top flight. Davies signed a one-year extension to his contract. Derby struggled in the Premier League, gaining only six points from fourteen games. After criticising Derby's board for lack of investment, Davies left Pride Park by mutual consent on 26 November 2007 with the club bottom of the league. Some critics believed that Davies was a victim of his own success after overachieving in his first season at Pride Park, while others cited his apparent tactical inefficiencies at top flight level, poor big money signings and suggested Davies had engineered his own departure, in the form of an outspoken rant against the board so as to avoid having a relegation on his CV."
