I spent about an hour in traffic watching loads of women wandering about, that was ace.

I'm now sat in traffic on the m6, not so ace.

Manchester is 83% white and the next largest ethnicity includes a majority who belong to a religion has some pretty clear teaching that listening to this kind of music is forbidden. What did you expect?

To bring some respect back to what should really be a considered thread, I have neither hardly seen or heard of Ariana Grande prior to last week, she is a million miles away from my own musical tastes. I was at the Courteeners last Saturday at Old Trafford which was emotional enough, but fair play to what I've seen from her,and everyone else tonight, loved that bit just now with the local school choir. This shows people can come together for the common good when necessary.

As if Manchester hadn't suffered enough, here's Take That. And we're going to let one of the two who can't sing murder the first song. Followed by the fat dancer who never sings the chorus of Strong live, cos he can't. I wind up Mrs Herts who is a fan of his, so of course i ramped up the anticipation, only for him to get the crowd to sing it as ever.

Highlight so far for me was Miley Cyrus making a decent fist of a Crowded House song.
