For a bit of comedy relief, rough calc for number of cash only barbers (and their staff levels) now in Woking, and using relatively recent population data, every male who lives locally would have to be getting their hair cut every 72 hours for them to cover costs.

digital nomads are like "I hate it here in europe with these immigrants ruining our safe and friendly culture, and take advantage of our economy" and then emigrate to south east asia to ruin the safe and friendly culture and take advantage of their economy 👍

Wondering if the hearts of those frustrated by small acts of petty symbolism, by the feeling that smashed windows and graffiti on bakeries are simply not enough, are cheered by the upgrade to burning ambulances this morning.

@KShabby16334956 @db_fink If you want some clear evidence of this, Birmingham, Woking, Crawley. Rampant corruption rinsing councils for millions.

@KShabby16334956 @db_fink I don’t resent it at all. The issue, as you pretend to not understand, is that there is a vast fraud often by Pakistanis who charge the council ludicrously inflated fees, and often done via other Pakistanis on the council. A child could understand this.

Mostar half marathon 🇧🇦 What an experience. The route was as stunning as you’d expect. Happy to have sneaked just under 2 hours considering a race prep consisting nearly exclusively of cevapi. Now time to enjoy some well-earned beers 🍻

@wine_wife @jarvis_best The passenger was CM saying farewell and saying things he wanted to say, I still haven’t figured out what he’s doing in SM but it works, beautifully

As long as folks are talking about Cormac McCarthy let me tell you this is a top 2-3 all time novel for me.

@EdNewman26 @MaffHKR Interesting how our forwards normally do well over there but back almost always a flop. Their backs who can’t quite cut it come over and do well

@EdNewman26 @MaffHKR Where do you think GC Titans finish in SL? I’d say 3rd

@EllroyLove @MaffHKR I do agree that at the top of the NRL we are a long way behind. Not necessarily towards the other end.

@EdNewman26 @MaffHKR Defo fair on marketing. Go tell someone jai field, bevan French are the top players in SL though they’d die of laughter. Tom Amone was playing NSW cup but looks very good here. For me quite a long way behind.

@EllroyLove @MaffHKR Spoke to a lot of people who have worked in the NRL. Majority of it is it’s just marketed far better which is why everyone thinks it’s miles ahead. Top super league clubs would have a chance at top half.

@EdNewman26 @MaffHKR Politely disagree, kicking game in the halves and FB play is a long long way behind. Depth too of course. Exceptions of course but almost no SL clubs would make top half, for me.

@MaffHKR NRL is not as far ahead as everyone makes out. Your top super league teams would push for top 8. Good player is Mik. Leeds have a lot of work to do for 2027.

Roberto Bolaño: what a staggering, highly addictive, writer he is. The Savage Detectives and 2666 are vast wonders, but his shorter works are glittering gems too.

The Wire ended 18 yrs ago today. It’s been taught in Ivy League schools, law schools & film schools. David Simon was interviewed by a sitting president about its lasting impact. Cited in a State Supreme Court ruling. Often hailed by critics as the best ever. Never won an Emmy.
