Well, that's @skytv cancelled. Contract's up in December and they told me the monthly payment would have gone up from £163 to more than £180 a month. So much for loyalty. I've been with them for more than 30 years. Time to move on 😃

@DevereuxJohn13 One of the worst Welsh sides I've seen John. Where has the pride gone? I was lucky enough to enjoy Wales in the 70s onwards, but now..... well! Who would you bring in as coach? Gatland must be heading for the door.

Last time I interviewed Mark Hughes was after Brazil beat Wales (Sparkie was the Wales manager) 3-0 at the Millennium Stadium in May 2000, for the Birmingham Evening Mail. Same night as I met Ryan Giggs. Asked him if he'd be fit for Wales' European clash the following week after he missed the game. He told me to F Off. A minute later, Rivaldo came out of the dressing room and I spoke to him. He was brilliant and I interviewed him through an interpretor. A great player and a Welsh tit. Think I still have the cutting somewhere. Good luck Sparkie in saving @officialcufc's League status. Off to find that cutting now 😁 @joncolman @sportsofcumbria

I've been banging on about @officialcufc hiring a high-profile boss since the signing of Williamson. Now they've done it! Mark Hughes has been brought in to try and save the Blues. Well done, there's hope now.

Brian Murphy, 92, has died and will be remembered for some great programmes including 'George and Mildred'. The one blessing is that Mildred, Yootha Joyce, will be waiting for you Brian 😵 RIP George

@Barclays have advised customers to ask family and friends for help OR go to a food bank after a major IT glitch. What an insult. They should be bending over backwards to open their banks to hand out cash. What a joke they are. #Disgraceful

@AMAZlNGNATURE I can't even go into one of those CT Scan tunnels without flapping. So it's a NO from me.

Just found a Christmas present that I bought 13 months ago for my grandchildren, in a box in the loft. That poor puppy 😒

@DevereuxJohn13 Bournemouth can counter fast and dangerously too. Should be a cracking game.
