| Monmouth Flooding | Right then, listen here. Monmouth's gone proper underwater, hasn't it? Storm Claudia, that's the villain. The rivers have well and truly burst their banks, forcing folk out of their homes. A major incident, no mistake. The emergency services are working tirelessly, bless 'em. Avoid the area, son, and stay safe. It's a fine mess. |
| Martin Lewis debit card warning | Alright, listen up. Martin Lewis, he's a sharp lad, yeah? Says ditch the debit card for everyday shoppin' if you're dipped into your overdraft. Those interest rates, somethin' fierce, like forty percent! Bloody expensive, that is. Use a credit card, you get more protection, Section 75, see? Just pay it off, every month, no messin'. Don't be silly. |
| Sophie Winkleman | Right then, listen here. Sophie Winkleman, lovely girl, yeah? She's been tellin' it straight about the royals, bless 'em. Says their lives are "total hell," constant blinding spotlight, a form of torture. She also spoke about poor Thomas Kingston, a big tragedy, miss him every day. Her husband, Freddie, works with a charity now to help men, James' Place. Good on 'em. |
| London bus strike | Right then, listen here. There's a spot of bother with the London buses, innit? Drivers in West London are on strike over pay, disgraceful behaviour from the bus company, apparently. Little to no service on seven routes, affecting the 13, 23, 31, and a few others. Best find another way to travel, maybe a nice walk, yeah? Plan ahead, son, and check for updates on the Transport for London website. |
| Boxing tonight | Right then, you 'erd? Big fight tonight, the rematch they've all been talkin' about. Proper "unfinished business," this one. Family pride on the line, ain't it? Gonna be a real dust-up, a proper tear-up. Expect fireworks, you know? Could go either way, a real nail-biter. Get yourself ready for a proper night of the noble art, mate. |
| Is Cheltenham races on today? | Right then, listen here. The November Meeting is well and truly on today, November 15th. It's "Super Saturday," see? The big race, the Paddy Power Gold Cup, is at 2:20 PM. It's a proper jump racing affair, with the first race off at 12:35 PM. Get your bets on, don't be a plonker! |
| CoD Black Ops 7 | Right then, listen here. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is out now, dropped yesterday, November 14th. It's set in 2035, a proper madhouse, apparently. Got a co-op campaign, Zombies, and the usual multiplayer madness. They say it's fighting off fatigue, trying new things, all that. You can get it on Game Pass, day one, if you're smart about it. A big, noisy affair, I expect. |
| Hong Kong vs Bangladesh A | Right then, listen here. Bangladesh A have made light work of Hong Kong in the cricket, haven't they? Smashed 'em by eight wickets in the Asia Cup Rising Stars. Hong Kong posted a decent total, but Bangladesh A, led by a blistering hundred from some lad named Habibur, chased it down in no time. A proper pasting, that was. |
| England v New Zealand | Right then, listen here. England are playing New Zealand, but it's the rugby, not the cricket, today. The big match is this afternoon, 3:10 PM kick-off at Twickenham, for the Hillary Shield, you see? England haven't beaten the All Blacks at home since 2012, so it's a tough ask, no mistake. The All Blacks are full of fire. Should be a proper dust-up. |
| Simon Harmer | Right then, listen here. Simon Harmer, the South African spinner, he's been in the thick of it. Just got his thousandth first-class wicket against Pakistan, no messin'. Now he's in India for another Test, bagged himself four wickets already, a proper performance. Still doin' it for Essex and the Proteas, still a top man. |
