4 h. ago My friend only ever wants to talk about herself. Should I cut her off? | Ask Annalisa Barbieri

A face-to-face conversation telling her how her behaviour affects you would give you peace, even if she ignores youI have been friends with a woman for more than 20 years, who has overcome many challenges, which I admire. However, she’s constantly blindsided by people. Her husband left her, and it was a huge shock. A lot of her friends disappeared at that point as they were only interested in her husband. This surprised her. She made more effort to be my friend, and must have realised more clearly what friendship was.Over the years since, quite a few of her friends have disappeared and she isn’t sure why. Her last employer turned on her, even though she was an excellent employee, and she left without knowing what had changed. Continue reading...

Fathers’ feud echoes as sons meet for final chapterRehydration clause looms over high-stakes rematchReach out to Bryan via Bluesky or emailTorrential rain lashed across north London yesterday and the mood tonight at the Tottenham Hotspur would have been very different if we had to face more of the same. But it’s crisp and, so far, mercifully dry. The stadium is about 90% full but a large number of tickets were easily available, and at a marked-down price, earlier today. Thousands of freebies were also dished out this week – which indicates that demand for Benn-Eubank Jr II needed a little boost.Benn and Eubank Jr should make their ringwalks around 10pm.

A tactically and technically adept Three Lions squad can take the handbrake off and prosper in North America next summerWatching Micky van de Ven surge through the pretty much the entire FC Copenhagen team in the Champions League last week, two sensations occurred. The first was awe, that somebody so powerful and so quick would still have the composure to finish as he did. And the second was that this didn’t feel entirely fair. It was as though Gulliver had landed himself a deal in the Lilliput Premier League.The same evening, Liverpool, who have at times struggled physically in the Premier League this season, bullied Real Madrid, their threat at set plays so marked that eventually it was the 5ft 7in Alexis Mac Allister who headed the vital goal. The following day, Newcastle swatted Athletic Bilbao aside, largely by being bigger than them: for the opening goal, the Spanish side’s defence appears to have looked at Dan Burn and decided there was no point even trying to mark him.

15 h. ago The moment I knew: I felt a pang of fear – but I knew we were an unbeatable duo

After spying Tom Box at a punk gig, Kate Logan made a Dalek poster to capture his attentionFind more stories from the moment I knew seriesLong before we’d met, I had heard a lot about a guy called Tom Box. I knew he was an Australian living in the South Island of New Zealand. I was in Wellington, and there’d been a few occasions when I’d travelled to the South Island for raves or anarchist conferences where some of the folks had gone to Tom’s place – but I splintered off somewhere else.Then one day, in 2007, I was at a punk gig when a mutual friend said, “Oh, do you know Tom Box? He’s over there. He’s just moved up to Wellington.” There in a sea of black-clad punks, jumping up and down at the front of the mosh pit, was this guy in a pale blue Star Trek uniform. To me, as a person unfamiliar with Star Trek, he looked like he was wearing pyjamas. This was my first vision of him, but we didn’t talk at all that night. Continue reading...
