Realised when I finally looked things up a few years ago and saw clips that I’d somehow fused the memory of this with Behind the Bikesheds. Years thinking Bill Oddie was in Behind the Bikesheds as a schoolgirl.
My very specific scarred for life type memory is of him dressed as a schoolgirl which I think must’ve happened in this show? Can’t find a clip which is perhaps a blessing.
Anyone remember From the Top with Bill Oddie? Strange times. youtube.com/watch?v=0Lo0...
The actual lol of holding up a SWP banner at a march against sexism

Thudding, humourless, literalist, cod philosophical. I don’t care if he’s technically good, it’s dross.
The entire output of Christopher Nolan. Cannot bring myself to like a single second of it.
Thanks Jase, yeah I need to have a fiddle, clearly.
Can’t get to grips with Bluesky. I only follow a handful and the rest of my timeline is the app suggesting people who invariably have anime/furry avatars and seem to think it’s cute that they are deranged and don’t use punctuation. I miss the Twitter glory days. Bring back 2011.
We’re skipping World B#ok Day as my boy’s only 3 and doesn’t go to nursery on Thursdays and also because I have a feeling this will be the last year we’ll be allowed to do so. It is truly a juggernaut.
What I want my almost-3-year-old to watch vs what my almost-3-year-old wants to watch.

Aw. This is lovely.
Trying to decide which of these courses which are GENUINELY BEING OFFERED by the BBC is more outrageous.
Programme from the Alexandra Theatre, Birmingham - 1941-42 panto season. Quietly moving I thought.

The nation’s taste has changed and for the worse. Can’t lay my hands on a plain chocolate orange for love nor money.
Picked up some samosas off the buffet at a wake last Friday and just realised they’re still in the fridge. Week old funeral samosas, is that a thing, is that a lunch?
This year we're doing Whamutopia. Every time you hear Last Christmas you have to have a mulled wine at your earliest convenience and toast George Michael, because he was a lad
That very specific type of lower back pain that is caused by trying not to touch the person sitting next to you on the bus with any part of your body.
When I was thinking I’d imagined it one of the things I thought was I might’ve got it from Partridge somehow. He’d have been a fan, for sure.
motorwayservices.uk/The_Granary Wondered if I had imagined that motorway services always used to have vaguely rustic themed restaurants called stuff like “The Granary”. Turns out I didn’t imagine it. This is the kind of stuff that occupies my mind.
Ooh the Shakespeare puzzle. Such a good one. Always used to start with the river and work outwards. My toddler is not puzzle friendly, sadly.
What’s everyone doing with all their old fabric Covid-times masks? Have you chucked them out? Are they in a bag labelled “masks”? Or do you just get tangled up in one and curse the gods every time you go to get something out of a drawer?
Oh I loved him a lot, was lucky enough to see him live a couple of times. Such a great idiosyncratic songwriter. And such a tragic end.
All of yours! Plus these. And many more.
I don’t get it, why isn’t there a single cry laugh emoji on this?
My mum’s brother died this morning and she’s just found out he was a lifelong Dylan fan. As was she. She’s been seeing Dylan alone all these years as she’s never had a Dylan buddy to go with. Families eh. Death eh.
Anyone checked out the Wikipedia entry for Supergran lately?
Poor He-Man. He’s 40 years old but couldn’t last 4 months with my 2 year old.
