It's quite sad when someone once known for his commentary is now known for being a twat.

Am I allowed to say that? 'cos it's the only adjective that fits.

He does let himself down all too often !

My dealer ,where I bought my car quoting me £180 for a new tyre ,while a quick google found that Kwik- Fit /National tyres etc do the same for between £ 90-£100 ,needless to say I politely declined ,they will not be getting my custom much longer !

Brendan Foster ,the BEEB must take him out of the box they keep him in,dust him down and wind him up once or twice a year,fair go ,he may have one a race or two back in the middle ages but like most of our " star " athletes /sportsmen/women they make far more dosh commentating for the BBC than they ever did during their sporting career

First time in years I didn't watch it today. I did just catch David Weir come second in the wheel chair race on the news.

My niece was running so I made a token gesture of watching !

BBC EPG states 9.00 - 14.00 Commonwealth games and the bit at the top says will include shooting, cycling, rubgy etc, etc so if you want to see something - in my case the veladrome cycling you need to keep switching channels because they don't give you a smaller break down for timings. Yesterday it was supposed to be on BBC3 and I found it on BBC1

Getting a puncture a month ago and finding it was irreparable ! £150 for a new tyre and then today getting a screw in the new tyre and once again finding it was irreparable ,another £170
and the worrying thing is that this could happen again

[Mayfly]

I had exactly the same last year found on the MOT then beggar me it happened this year too.

Then there's an inexperienced autistic son who gets a nail in his new tyre in an eminently repairable and saveable position ...but drives home with it flat for a mile and completely wrecks the wall and writes it off ...

Why are nearly all drain/man-hole covers placed exactly where you can't help but drive over them ? and why are most of them badly aligned causing necessary jolts

Full blanket of cloud here in St Ives ... nothing visible exactly as in 1999

Here's to 23rd September 2090 - (I shall be 138)

Total Solar Eclipse: the next total eclipse visible in the UK follows a track similar to that of 11 August 1999, but shifted slightly further north and occurring very near sunset. Maximum duration in Cornwall will be 2 minutes and 10 seconds. Same day and month as the eclipse of 23 September 1699.

Or - partial on 12th August 2026 - (I shall be 74 - hopefully)

An eclipse which is total across Iceland, the Atlantic Ocean and Spain results in a very large partial eclipse across Britain with western Ireland the most favoured, at around 95% falling to 83% in London
