    Could all be a coincidence, but Radio Ulster and 5 Live presenter Stephen Nolan was reported yesterday to have transferred his company and £4m worth of shares into another entity ran by a bookmaker:

    Also, his 5 Live show schedule has his last last broadcast by him on 2nd July, with guest presenters for the next couple of weeks.  Holiday?

     

    Read earlier he's one of the top 5 BBC presenters in terms of salary, earning £420k last year. £35k is a drop in the ocean with a huge salary and £4m worth of shares in a business.  But all probably a coincidence.

     

    The allegations were made in May and he was removed in May

     

    As far as I can see none of the articles mention the sex of the teenager!

     

    So could be

    Flowers in the Dirt is a good album made better by Costello playing the Lennon role.    Venus and Mars got panned on its release, but I've always liked it.  So yes.

     

    Flowers in the Dirt is a cracking album and I saw him during that tour at the NEC in Birmingham

     

    Venus and Mars is the best Wings album and I really like the Wings period except Back to The Egg which is largely shit!

    The host of the podcast In Moscow’s Shadow was on the Beeb this morning, Mark Galeotti.

    I’ve started it from the beginning but it covers the build up to the invasion last year in later episodes. 
     

    In his interview this morning he said the next generation of politician kleptocrats just want to get back to siphoning money into their pockets, buying up West London and chilling on the mega yachts.

  4. Mrs Redheart dragged me to see Rick Astley a few years ago (2015 I think). 

     

    On the way I had a face like a slapped arse. I was sulking like a child being taken to the dentist.

     

    Great night. A superb singer. A decent bloke and very funny.

    I struggle to believe humans built the pyramids in c.2550 BC or the Acropolis was built in 525BC or the Colosseum was built in 72 AD or Machu Picchu was built in the 1400's.

     

    Whether that means that was an ancient civilisation or something else, I don't know.

     

    Just because you could not do it or understand it does not mean that it was not possible.

     

    It just means they were smarter and more specialised than you

  6. When in New York a few years ago I went on the Intrepid an air craft carrier which was then a museum. It had a submarine attached (The Growler) and you could go into it. It was tiny and horrifying just touring that thing and that was a proper submarine and not just knocked up in someone's shed

  7. The coast guard are saying it was not banging but merely noise. They are not stating it could be human. They are back tracking after further specialist analysis.

     

    This does not end well.

     

    My money is still on catastrophic hull failure and they all died instantly
