reacting to the news of a new taylor swift album like brenda from bristol reacting to a new general election.

[the-toasted-teacake]

I can't even bring out the Brenda from Bristol clip, because I'm honestly delighted that we're FINALLY getting another (long awaited) general election. Ready to see this government GONE.

(Could've done without the realisation it's likely to be Silverstone weekend though. FFS do not start asking these guys for election opinions 🥲)

Co-written by Jarvis Cocker (of Pulp), Walk Like a Panther is a song on how things have changed but not for the better and things losing their value  Watch https://youtu.be/ZyR4ut8Vjdo?si=eL99sMl7a-_pkCkL Cal White - Tell Me What You Want  I came across this incredible artist recently, and by that I mean very, as in the same day I wrote this. He's been active on the local scenes since 2017 and has been gaining a following ever since. Tell Me What You Want is a great song about trying to know what that someone in your life wants and holding on to it. If this song alone is anything to go by I'm keeping my eyes and ears on this guy.

Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark or Après Moi, Le Déluge

You’re joking – not another one ‘Brenda from Bristol’ is a folk hero of recent British political history. Interviewed in a BBC vox pop (after Theresa May called a General Election), Brenda pronounced, in a wonderful local accent: ‘You’re joking – not another one … There’s too much politics going on at the moment’. Here in France right now, there’s also an awful lot of politics. Last Sunday…

Premiership Rugby U18 Academy League 2023 fixtures & How to Watch

The Premiership Rugby U18 Academy League returns this weekend for Round 3 after a 5-month hiatus.

In a new format, the first two rounds of the competition took place in the summer with the remaining five, plus finals day, taking place through January and February.

Much has changed since those opening two rounds though, where Leicester Tigers, Saracens, Bristol Bears, and London Irish each won two from two. The big change comes in the northern conference, where of course Wasps and Worcester Warriors are no longer, replaced by the Midlands Regional Academy, with Midlands Central replacing Wasps and Midlands West replacing Worcester Warriors.

With the players remaining largely the same, the two new entities pick up the old entities results, leaving Midlands Central second in the conference after a win and a draw and Midlands West in 6th after a defeat in their sole outing to date.

Missing out on a Crusaders call-up was a blessing in disguise for Waratahs flanker Charlie Gamble, who has thrived in the Australian system and now has eyes for the Wallaby jersey, once he becomes eligible in April 2023. The Christchurch-born and raised 26-year-old has been turning heads for his physical play on both sides of the

I've seen tweets with her photo, can you tell me what she did?

In 2017, Theresa May held a snap election just 2 years after the last election (normally it’s 5 years between elections although it’s not rigid like it is in some countries). They took to the street to do vox pops - little interviews with normal people on the street to get their reactions - and Brenda from Bristol was one of them:
