Shownotes Transcript

After facing the pandemonium of cancelled flights and police tear gas outside the stadium the Liverpool fans were left with a hard to to take defeat in the Euro final.....some even hired a speedboat to get there....a bit of a damp squib to end the season on with a game they tactically should have won...and would have done had the Spanish goalie not played a blinder. Boris and his Christmas party is still headline news....will we ever move on?.....and there's nothing more annoying than someone shouting to the Prime Minister as he walks to his car "Are you going to resign Prime Minister?"....which Boris rightly ignores.....and it would make a nice change if the Labour Party actually came up with something constructive instead of constantly criticising the Government.

Also the horrific shooting of school kids in America has had blanket coverage on the news.....it is difficult for people who live in countries where guns are illegal to comprehend the American viewpoint.

The rolling headlines underneath the BBC News bulletins went slightly wrong.....they were (apparently) training someone on how it's done and he typed in "Manchester United are rubbish" which accidentally came up on the screen as the news was being read......the BBC have apologised.

I watched documentary on the 40 years of ABBA since they packed up....very interesting and quite tragic in parts.Prices of everything continue to rise for no real apparent reason....a pal of mine uses a car wash each week and the cost has gone up by £4......."because they can't get the chemicals".....soap and water isn't it?....and with cups of tea costing at least £2.50 it is cheaper to drink Diesel.....

This week's worst song selection....They're Coming to Take Me Away Ha Ha.....by Sloppy Jane....almost as bad as Yoko Ono.

Sloppy Jane is an American avant-garde rock band fronted by Haley Dahl. The band released their breakthrough second studio album Madison in 2021, through Saddest Factory Records, an imprint owned by their former bassist Phoebe Bridgers. Dahl is known for her eccentric performance art style which sometimes includes nudity
