11. Steve B chart quiz
I wrote to Steve B:
Have to disqualify myself, Steve, on this one … I know exactly when. Another for free … Splodgeness Abounds was the same year … says the year after but I can guarantee it wasn’t … bought the 45 in Tottenham Court Road from this geezer.
And West Ham won the FA Cup.

8. Lainey’s straight MAGA
… far more internal US matters than we ordinarily cover but still interesting …
“California has issued more than 62,000 commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) to illegal aliens and migrants.
“The federal audit found California had issued 62,000 CDLs to drivers who entered illegally, John, or do not have a permanent legal status, as required by the feds.”
John Roberts: “Did I hear you right? 62,000? My goodness!”
Depending on where they are from, some countries drive on the opposite side of the road than we do in the US.”

Saw this on Gab, where I still go to visit the lady Lainey (in Fri 8) …

Yesterday, two near-simultaneous acts of sabotage saw explosions ripping through oil refineries in both Hungary and Romania. In Hungary it was the MOL in Százhalombatta, which reportedly receives Russian oil, while in Romania the Petrotel-Lukoil, a subsidiary of the Russian parent company.
(0435) Firing on three cylinders (of four) … more detailed account in Friday 2 for certain far flung friends who were asking. Everyone else just carry on as normal please.

a. Starmer has just pledged an ‘additional £10 million in security funding to protect Muslim communities from hate crimes and attacks’ – didn’t say how much he was willing to spend on protecting little English girls though. We can be sure it’ll be nothing because they can barely bring themselves to admit that there’s anything wrong. That’s where we are and that’s where we’ll always be with self-haters in charge. Do not vote for people that hate you.

4. If you examine what govt is doing
… both here and in the US:
… and all around the west, it certainly seems coordinated, directed from Demon HQ. In turning indigenous people into cannon fodder and invading riff-raff into the cushily placed … well you can write the next but.

2. The health of a Higham
Do NOT wish to bore most readers but some readers I know would like to know. It’s written on that basis only.
On the NHS page about lil ole me, it says “fit”. Uh huh … how come the 2017 heart attack and stent then? Similarly, they thought COPD and so it was the treadmill thingy they did, which I passed but not even the docs thought to look at THIS.
What it took decades to realise was that that need not be malingering … judge for yourself from my output and former life. Trouble is, there’s stigma to it. It’s a bit like women … tarred with the Woke left, feminazi, off the brain brush.
Two incidents which had me thinking were firstly, in my 30s, going jogging with a sportsmaster mate (I also was one at that point) and one early 20s. The 30s one was that both were a bit out of condition due to day job … over three weeks, he became fitter, I did not, not in the least … in fact I was worse.
Second I’ve mentioned before and were I Steve, I’d smile too … route marches never increased my fitness. That’s not normal, so one looks elsewhere. First was podiatrics … not really a factor, except with walking. However, treadmill was fine, bike fine, as long as it was medium intense rather than low level hiking or biking over a long period. Hence I train on training bike at medium intensity … not low level marathons. Works.
On that linked page, it also says “sore throat”, “flu like symptoms”. These usually don’t clear for most people in 36 hours … mine do. On the other hand, I do think that we’re being poisoned in the sky, food and water today (call it Gates). All the above have never been life altering, nor the rhinitis, nose bleeds, tinnitus.
One massive factor though is reaction to change in temperature, as with many of you … if there’s a draft and I’m slow to dress warmly, it can suddenly hit … but where? Well some other readers mentioned chronic weak points … in my case, that point in the throat, elbows but not knees, gut, dental, nose bleeds. It’s as if it decides what will we hit today … let’s try gut first. After a time, it gets bored with that and thinks let’s try throat, then moves somwhere else, gives em all a working over.
Usually within 36 hours, it just gives it away and here’s the puzzle … no lingering effects … suddenly I’m fit again, run up and down stairs, blog like crazy. Eat well, heaps of liquid. Why does it go this way? Not a bleedin’ clue. Yesterday’s one decided heart after gut. At that point, I wrote to you here and retreated to bed … usually exercise helps heart but when severe … only copious sleep. All done now and fairly right.
1. Starting with the Sparkle rumour
… ta, IYE. With TEL, I’d always suggest reading comments through. My own comment is “I’ve not a clue,” but this seemed a surprisingly good piece on Wiki to read in conjunction with Ent:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latifa_bint_Mohammed_Al_Maktoum_(born_1985)
Most significant few words, to me, were “with an Algerian woman”. I’d suggest that if you plan to pursue the story, bookmark IYE’s url.
