It's fairly simple, really. December 25th was picked as the date for celebrating the birthday of Jesus back in the 4th century in Rome. Some have indeed speculated it may have been to counter a pagan ceremony held around the same time, although I tend to think it was chosen because believers had...

Not really surprised. Indo has instituted an Irish-type policy of scouring the world for eligible players, with most being found in the Netherlands of course.

Ok, it might be a bit silly to some of you but this was a moment I enjoyed. I went to see China Crisis at Toronto's legendary El Mocambo last night. Eddie Lundon is a diehard Liverpool fan but the promoter was Ed Sousa, an Albion fan. So he brought me up on stage and we surrounded Eddie. A...

China Crisis again for me tomorrow at the legendary El Mocambo. Somehow it is the 40th anniversary of "Flaunt The Imperfection" and they will be playing it in its entirety.

Any Indonesians?

I'm in Ecuador at the moment. Reports here are suggesting Keny has chosen us over Fenerbahce and Porto. Fee in excess of $3m. I can't vouch for the reliability of these reports though.

Yeah, he's a man of his word lol

I've been on Ozempic for about a year, prescribed for diabetes rather than weight loss. I do notice that I eat less at mealtimes but it doesn't do much to stop craving the treats between meals. You still need willpower. As it happens, I lost 50lbs by willpower alone before starting the...

I know there's somebody on here who is a fan of that particular song but I can never remember who it is. Here's a new video I took of the band on Wednesday night in Toronto, with "Pop Goes The World" and then "Safety Dance". Better quality than previous efforts. Hopefully it won't be blocked...

Yes indeed, I've been to the house he was born in. It's now a museum to him. Nevertheless, if he became a British citizen then he definitely qualifies as British.

I have been present with someone as they went through an assisted death. It was almost surreal to be having a normal conversation with her, knowing she would be dead within the next ten minutes because she had chosen to do this. She had brain cancer but there were no outward signs of whatever...

Brexit

I see the Buzzcocks are in town next week. I'm tempted. But then again, there's only Steve Diggle left from the last time I saw them all those years ago. On the other hand, to hear all those great songs again, even if without Pete. So, I dunno.

Had some fun last night. In the middle of a tour of big arenas in Canada's cities, Billy Idol brought his Rebel Yell tour to little ol' Bala, Ontario where I work (year-round population less than a thousand). He played the historic Kee To Bala, which sits out over a lake. I last saw him when he...
