If a single pupil knows anything about your political leanings you’re a failure as a teacher.

I was watching a documentary about HMS Victory earlier and this was a toilet for the sailors up on the Beak deck. Imagine trying to have a turnout on there in a bit of a swell? Makes you proud to be British.

Pfffft. Few items from the British museum down Cash Converters and a couple of payday consolidation loans will sort that right out.

Has Dan Snow been on yet to tell us the crew were ackchyually not all English but made up of a melting pot of English, Celts, a Liberian theatre troupe and a few lesbians?
#OTD in 1805, the Royal Navy defeated the combined forces of France and Spain at Trafalgar. The tactical brilliance, professionalism, technology and training which underpinned Adm Lord Nelson’s stunning victory have driven and shaped the Navy ever since. #TrafalgarDay

I hate anti social pricks like this but with the current state of this country it’s a bit like walking up to a lad halfway through being hung, drawn and quartered and asking him if he needs a plaster.
🚨NEW: Andy Burnham has announced crackdown on anti-social behaviour on public transport.

The hands of a builder. Bravo Leonie.
Buildings can be rebuilt. Lives lost to cruelty and exploitation cannot. Don’t want to lose beautiful historic architecture? Don’t fuck with people’s well being.

Try saying that to your Mrs when you’re late home from the pub let alone running a country that’s on fire you weak throbber.
L’écoute et le dialogue ne signifient ni la faiblesse ni l’impunité.

Windows all flung open overnight as has been the norm for the past 6 months weather but there was a proper dip in temperature last night. Haven’t felt this chilly at home since I tripped over pissed in front of brand new neighbours years ago.

My mum is in a physio unit for people with old timers disease. She’s convinced the Doris in the bed opposite lives across from her in a bungalow she quite fancies moving into and was berating my brother for not bringing a wheelchair to bust her out before the other lady leaves🤦‍♂️

Are there still loads of fights going on when lads go out or has the recent swordplay you hear of tempered it all? Whether in a city or a market town years ago you’d nearly always see night time punch ups.

The absolute fucking state of this.🤦‍♂️
I'm relieved the Brexit omertà is breaking. But I feel sadness for the years of my life spent fighting for freedoms we should never have lost. Those years I'll never get back.

Reminds me of the time I told my mum her cooking was shit when I was about 15.
You’d have to surgically unclench my ass.

It looks harsh but it’s the right outcome for people who put nauseatingly soppy piano music over videos on here. (Especially dog ones)

Uncertain times for your average Saxon back then. A load of people you don’t know a lot about sailing over from the continent who then go on to live off the fat of the land and make a mess of the North.
#OTD (14th October) 1066 English history changes forever with The Normans victory at the Battle of Hastings. Duke William's conquest of England still had a long way to go despite his victory and the death of his rival Harold II and there would be many trying times ahead for William over the following decade in particular.
