bravo, sir

If the Hokey Cokey was, essentially, what it was all about, then I'd be fine with that. It's enough. #totp

I loved this - THE TENSION

omg I loved this too

'DOES YOUR PERSON HAVE A BEARD AND NO HAIR?'

All Hallmark Christmas movies could be improved TENFOLD by a scene where Bill Murray is viciously attacked by a fairy holding a toaster.

I loved game of life. The tiny pink and blue strands to put in your car to signify ‘finding a husband’ - oh lord.

I respect this and your corner of the classroom

I was too. I was the talk of our street. For about an hour.

What game is everyone taking in on the last day? I’m taking Perfection.

Yes! Adult melancholy with a bit of canned laughter

Why do I think of this every Sunday night? It was the hallmark of being up far far too late.

Absolutely delighted with this chat I had with @gracedent.bsky.social about Bagpuss. It took us both back to early childhood and I had no idea it was going to get so deep and profound. A truly great show and a great person to talk about it with.

Living Joy needs more credit. Keep on Moving AND I'm a Dreamer. #totp

😍 love this

I loved The Fugees. I did this. This was me. I was the fan. #totp

I hope it's the extended club mix

This is one of my favourite poptastic tales of all time #totp www.thefreelibrary.com/FALL+OF+THE+...

Return of the Mack is a banger. Don't embarrass yourself by arguing #totp

Genuinely laughed out loud on the Northern Line at this paragraph

Omg the joy of a Muller corner when it had chocolate balls.

The trifle in question. A rhapsody of beige.

The Georgian, Harrods, London: ‘A level of cosseting I hadn’t realised my life was missing’ – restaurant review Service is friendly but formal: expect trolleys and theatrical table-side chopping

Ask yourself, would your life be better, or worse, with a trifle butler? That's a butler who erects trifles, of course. This week's restaurant is The Georgian at Harrods. www.theguardian.com/food/2024/de...

´What shall we use for this supporting wall?´
´Dunno…a stack of Pannettone?’
