I worked in the MoD press office over 25 years ago. There was no way our ministers would have come across like this. Personally, I’m embarrassed.

How many frigates and destroyers does the UK have at its disposal? Defence Secretary John Healey can't seem to tell @NickFerrariLBC with any certainty.

You may notice we've updated our name. Our focus hasn't changed - Britain's historic counties remain our subject, and our purpose remains the same. The Campaign for Historic Counties continues as part of this work. Britain's historic counties were never abolished. They remain the country's enduring geographic framework. That's what we'll continue to explain - through history, maps and evidence.

Yes.

If people want to know why Gen X is always mad, it's because we had to replace our record collections with a tape collection and then replace that with a CD collection that we slowly replaced with an MP3 collection and now need a subscription to listen to music.

Yes! My daughter’s school has banned all smart tech. She’s now a taking in her dad’s old iPod and even the teachers are loving it.

Freyy@Freyy_is

dear apple, the iPod needs to come back. not for nostalgia. for the parents who want their kids to love music and audiobooks without a browser, social media, and the whole internet attached to it

@AvonandsomerRob I interviewed him in the late 90s. The best quote was when a record producer said he ‘could make the phone book sound effing sad’.

How did I not know that Colin Vearncombe, aka "Black" is no longer with us after a car crash in 2016. Eighties songs had melodies. This was no exception.

Mother’s Day has been tough this year. I lost my mum 5 years ago but this is the first one without my dad. We would both celebrate her life. Now even my daughter forgot about today.

@NormanBrennan The theme was played at my dad’s funeral. He was particularly fond of Fred Quimby’s episodes.

Folks who remembers Tom & Jerry? I was captivated as a youngster I watched all 161 episodes; I watched them all as the devil part of me wanted Tom to finally get one over on that little shit Jerry as he got far too cocky! But alas it never happened👇🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@anon_opin Not in East Riding we don’t. We are a sophisticated supermarket desert.

Snobs who look down on the North because we don't have Waitrose forget to mention that we have Booths instead, which is a far superior supermarket.

@anon_opin Life Skills teacher here. I’d be all for it.

English

Anon Opin.@anon_opin·14 Mar

There should be a mandatory GCSE in Life Skills. By the time you leave school you should know how to change a car wheel, wire a plug, stop a dripping tap, how to wallpaper and paint, being able to cook simple meals from scratch, alongside financial skills like budgeting.
