Because Strawberry Switchblade's Let Her Go wasn't a hit, unlike Since Yesterday there were very few TV performances. We only know of two! Here's the first, from UK kids' TV show Saturday Superstore, 16 March 1985

@IndiaTales7 She's 65 !!!

When power meets pure cuteness 🥹❤️ Japan’s PM stealing hearts again 🇯🇵

@ValentinaForUSA @BBCBreaking I love it, I'd do the same if you say so ☺

@BBCBreaking Let’s make something very clear, England will do exactly what America tells them to do. When President Trump says jump, you ask how high

UK agrees to let US use British bases to strike Iranian sites targeting Strait of Hormuz Follow live: bbc.in/3PB0sHr

@DaveHcontrarian @ProfitGhoul @OliverNessa2 @mad_panos @MathewSteele17 @FinavigatorMe @theandymillette Your board is a great bell weather for sentiment David. I'm buying now on this fear. The rally when it comes will be fierce.

@ProfitGhoul @OliverNessa2 @mad_panos @MathewSteele17 @FinavigatorMe @theandymillette That's not how I forecast but I am very bullish & not close to any change.

I spoke with @DaveHcontrarian The other day. We discuss the 50% retracement in silver after a rapid run-up from about 50 to 122, arguing the pullback is a normal correction that has made some investors impatient and emboldened bears calling for a drop back to 50–65. The market is not far from turning higher, to 180 for silver—potentially as soon as this summer or later this year—and 6,800 for gold. Full talk here: youtu.be/_y2qE62klDQ

I chose to go naked on textile beaches like #Clifton Beach as part of my campaign to normalize the naked human body. @JoxiloxTours @nakedwanderings @PaulDeBruyn2 @Vonks_naturist

@Ronmarkets @marksandspencer Stokes Brown sauce needed

The best @marksandspencer

The incredible teaser trailer for ALIENS (1986).

@grape_andgarden Enjoy

@Ronmarkets Big reversal in equities next week.

The world is fucked clearly demonstrated by the prices below. #oil up over 5% from the US close and equities sharply lower.

when I was a kid I used to think hung up by Madonna was the best song ever made. then I grew up and matured and realised that hung up by Madonna is absolutely the best song ever made.

Incredible footage from a rescue boat captures a mother raccoon with her kits trapped on a pole amidst rising floodwaters. She takes a leap of faith to save them all.

@scottiebateman Great, want a job as a guide on 001, he didn't know this ☺

@NormalisingNud1 It was actually used as a demo aircraft for refilling and gave gas to many aircraft including the SR-71. Ironically the only 747 tankers ever built and put into service went to Iran. Not sure if they’ll survive this or are even serviceable.

Because of the ongoing war in be Gulf, the aeroplane designed to survive the unthinkable is being watched closely by many. When people talk about the “Doomsday Plane,” they usually imagine something mythical a secret aircraft waiting for the end of the world. The reality is both more sober and more fascinating. The aircraft in question is the E-4B National Airborne Operations Center, a heavily modified Boeing 747-200 built to function as a flying command post should the United States ever lose its ground-based leadership infrastructure. In the most extreme scenario, nuclear war, it would allow national command authorities to continue directing military forces from the air. In other words, it’s not a weapon. It’s a continuity plan. Inside, the aircraft is less airline cabin and more airborne bunker: hardened against electromagnetic pulse, filled with secure communications equipment, briefing rooms, and enough systems redundancy to operate independently for long periods. It carries battle staff, communications specialists, and aircrew trained for a mission nobody ever hopes to perform. One feature always captures people’s imagination. Trailing from the rear of the aircraft is a five-mile-long antenna… literally reeled out behind the aircraft in flight. This is part of a Very Low Frequency (VLF) communications system used to transmit signals to submerged ballistic missile submarines, the most survivable leg of the nuclear deterrent. VLF radio waves can penetrate seawater, allowing commanders to communicate with submarines even when they are hidden deep below the ocean’s surface. It’s a remarkable piece of engineering and a reminder that the 747 platform was never just a passenger aeroplane. The same aircraft that democratised long-haul travel also became a flying laboratory, a space shuttle carrier, a cargo giant, and, in this case, a last-resort command centre. In my book JUMBO, I explore how versatile the Queen of the Skies truly became. During interviews with crew members who have worked around these aircraft, one theme came through repeatedly: professionalism mixed with quiet humility. The mission is serious, but the people involved understand their real purpose is deterrence, ensuring the aircraft never has to do the job it was built for. And that’s perhaps the most important point. When tensions rise and rumours swirl online about “doomsday planes taking off,” it’s easy to imagine the worst. In truth, these aircraft exist precisely to prevent catastrophe, by ensuring that even in the most extreme circumstances, order and communication would endure. The Boeing 747 was built to connect the world. In one of its most extraordinary adaptations, it was also built to protect it. JUMBO, out now, tells the deeper story of how one aircraft evolved into many different roles across five decades of aviation history. From carrying holidaymakers across oceans…to quietly preparing for the day we hope never comes. 📷 (c) Boeing Images #Boeing747 #JUMBOBook #AviationHistory #AvGeek #DoomsdayPlane #E4B #QueenOfTheSkies #AviationTechnology #Airpower #Iran

@Ronmarkets Short lived spike. Stock market rally very soon. Lots will be wrong footed

Just over 90 minutes before US Futures resume trading. Going to be keenly watched after the weekend shenanigans, in particular the #oil price. $100 in the next few hours for #Brent?

@TheBubbleBubble I think caution needed here. Could see a big reversal. Economy slowing, that oil price spike will be short lived. I reckon we're looking at new all time highs in the stock market In the next few months.

The U.S. stock market is showing numerous signs of a technical breakdown, which is alarming given the bubble conditions of recent years. Learn more in my latest update: thebubblebubble.substack.com/p/concerning-a… $SPY $QQQ

@RepBaumgartner A General Election will happen in the next 18 months and this Communist traitor will be removed

I, too, am disappointed in UK PM Starmer. The “special relationship” between the US & UK is based on a shared cultural affinity and mutual appreciation of each others ability to project military force around the globe in the cause of freedom. As I told some senior Labor politicians last year, it is up to the UK whether their relationship with the US remains “special.” If the UK continues on the path to becoming a noodle-armed military with a society that is ambivalent or adversarial to defending the history and values of western civilization, there will be less and less shared efforts for us to work together on. For the good of the world, I hope they reverse course. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧

@KobeissiLetter The US were a bit late to WWII to be fair

BREAKING: President Trump says the UK is “finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East.” “We don’t need them any longer… we don’t need people that join wars after we’ve already won,” Trump says.

@RapidResponse47 The US were a bit late to WWII to be fair

@Y2John84 Pinewood at its best.

This was made in 1979.

@TimmyMallett Have a lovely day Timmy 🙏
