The BEST 20 movies to watch of all time.

Having a train that takes you directly to the airport is genuinely one of the top 10 things a city can offer. No expensive taxis, no sitting in traffic, no begging someone to drop you off. Just get on the train and arrive at the airport. Every major city should have this.

"Nicola Sturgeon squandered the formidable war chest she had been bequeathed by her predecessor by starting a doomed fight over sex and gender which has brought incalculable damage to the cause of Scottish independence. "During this time the administration she led failed in every policy area. But Scotland won the world's best baby-box competition. "Ms Sturgeon’s reward for her government’s pattern of political failure was to be handed a £300,000 advance for a second-rate memoir and garlanded in our culture sector as a literary savant."

You just lost a bet ..

I know it’s a young adult novel from 1954 — so demands a knowledge of the Roman Empire of a graduate today — but gosh, I just read this and it’s so so good!

Back in the day: November 1925 – Spurs players pay their respects before the match, heads bowed in silence after the death of Queen Alexandra on 20 November 1925. The team are in the rare red-and-white narrow hoops change strip, worn between 1924–1927. #Coys #THFC

A British girl in 1960 left school able to roast a joint, render the dripping, make a suet crust and bone a fish. Her granddaughter was taught to design the box a pizza comes in. It was called domestic science, and it was on the timetable from the 1870s. Once a week you carried your ingredients in on the bus in a wicker basket with a tea towel over the top. A woman in a white overall, who frightened everybody, taught you the lot. - How to choose a cheap cut and make it tender - How to make stock from the bones - How to use up the cold joint on Monday - How to feed a family of 5 for a week on a wage The boys were next door doing woodwork, and went home to be fed by someone who had passed the course. In 1990 the National Curriculum abolished it. Cooking was folded into a new subject called design and technology, alongside plastics and electronics. Pupils no longer cooked a meal. They "developed a food product". They surveyed their classmates on preferred toppings, drew the packaging, and wrote an evaluation. Thousands of school kitchens were stripped out, since nobody needed an oven to draw a box. That was 36 years ago. The first children through it are now the parents, standing in a supermarket with no idea what to do with a shoulder of lamb, and being told that their weight is a failure of willpower. It was a decision. A country that had taught every girl to turn a carcass into a week of dinners chose to teach her children to be customers.

Alan Gilzean @SpursOfficial Signed from @DundeeFC by Bill Nicholson in December 1964 for £72,500, Gilzean initially arrived as a replacement for Bobby Smith. Rather than playing as a physical center-forward, he evolved into a creative, unselfish deep-lying forward who could orchestrate attacks as expertly as he finished them. He amassed 133 goals in 439 competitive appearances for the club, placing him among Tottenham's all-time greatest goalscorers

Has to be up there wit the worst fish suppers I have had, Ginos in Helensburgh. Abzolute slop and they expect you to eat it and not complain. This is not uncommon, a good fish supper is hard to find now.

We don't really care what some English twat thinks

Except it’s not - it’s Welsh speaking Britons - Dumbarton is from Dùn Breatainn - capital of the Strathclyde-Cumbria kingdom - which stretched across Southern Scotland and Northern England - a Middleland which was neither Scotland nor England!
