@archivetvmus71 I remember a schoolfriend in 64 ( I was 10) telling me that there was a new TV series starting soon which he said was called "supersub" and it was going to be fantastic.

The first episode of Stingray was originally broadcast in selected ITV regions on this day in 1964.

17 September 1929. Stirling Moss was born in London. He was the 1st Englishman to win the British Grand Prix and is regarded as the best F1 driver never to have been World Champion, finishing runner up 4 times.

@OldLondonW14 Haha, yes 3rd of pint of milk in a bottle with a straw. In our ( state) primary before we were allowed our milk, we had to line up to do ( wait for it...) "nose drill" "Hold up your clean handkerchief or go and stand facing the wall if you don't have one" 1/2

@prodnose Went to the Den in 1969 aged 15 v Birmingham and mate wore the largest Birmingham rosette you ever saw. Pleasantly surprised that no one cared & just looked at him with an odd expression.

@OldLondonW14 Laughing Cavalier picture was all the rage during the "paint by numbers" craze in late 50's/early 60's. All my Aunts and Uncles were doing it😊

@FondOfBeetles I recall seeing an interview with a woman who was told in her mid 20's that she had internal testes which caused some pretty rotten psych issues after it was suggested she was medically male.

There is a massive sticking point with understandings of DSDs and it’s this. When a person carries a mutation in a gene that is needed for, say, eye development, they may be born with an eye that is small, has structural defects, and/or doesn’t work properly. They don’t grow an ear in its place. When a male carries a mutation in a gene that is needed for penis growth, he may well grow a penis that is small, has structural defects and/or doesn’t work properly. But the nature of genital development in the embryo means that sometimes, he can grow something else instead. And it’s something that we consider a perfectly regular anatomical part of another group of people. So people, unconsciously perhaps, flip their frameworks. No longer is this is a male who carries a mutation that means his penis didn’t grow properly, this is, in fact, a female, and it’s everything else about that body - all the other stuff that is routinely and boringly male - that must be considered the “mutation”. The Y chromosome is a mutation? Testes development is an anomaly? The prostate and the seminal glands are anomalies? Being able to father children with sperm is some kind of mad, freaky physical process? This makes no sense. This is how we get “female testes”. And possibly an eye-ear spectrum of sensory organs 😂 And further, nobody would argue against anyone saying, “OK, it’s an ear, but there should have been an eye there.” We all know that humans don’t grow ears where their eyes are supposed to be. Some thoughts.

@benonwine Water ski-ing all day at Tongwell Lake while the council lorry pumped water into it's enormous tank to water all the dying sapling trees of MKeynes. Also, enormous cracks in the fairways of the local golf course

@ThinkingAtheist Watched the whole of the seminal BBC play in the 60's, "The year of the sex Olympics " while staying with my best friend aged about 13 & his parents just remained completely silent throughout. Never once suggested that we shouldn't watch it & it wasn't mentioned at all afterwards

@ljmb2 There seem to be a lot of twitter'ers who don't really want the sensible answer. Just need sensational 'asset-stripping' threads. Pozzo is owed £50-60m, so not 100% sure how he's done anything other than fund the club rather than take the money out. Pity he doesn't speak though

@JordanWiemer As we have so few non-home-grown slots available, my guess is we needed home grown first, left sided second and other attributes a long way last. Essentially, if not home grown, we can't have them.
