I am a sheep. Also a Quaker. I like puns, politics and permaculture, not necessarily in that order. I love music. Laurie Anderson and The Sisters of Mercy are at the apex.

Pres. Trumpโ€™s "Board of Peace" is a deeply flawed, unserious, and harmful initiative.

Real, enduring peace is built in local communities -- not by decree of the powerful.

A word on immigration. Don't prejudge this, just listen to the data, and then consider what the solution is.

The UK has a falling birth rate. This means that - unless things change - each generation will be 25% smaller than the one before.

She could take Alice and Chris with her, maybe pick up Tom on the way.

It's OK. Everyone knows there's a semi-permeable portal on the Worcsestershire/ Warwickshire border that only allows certain people in and out to the Borsetshire that lies between. Any fallout would be contained and stored in the disused Walter Gabriel groan mines beneath Netherborne Hall.

Peep Show, M&W were good. I couldn't take WILTY or Upstart Crow (does he have to in everything #Footlightsmafia)? What had seemed subversive, now seemed very mainstream and comfortable. I liked Ludwig in spite of him, but couldn't take more of the M&W psychodrama that Back seemed to promise.

Maybe I need to te-read them. It's been a long time. I'm not saying Mitchell would be bad as Dent, just I see him more as Marvin - constantly pissed off, and terminally passive aggressive

That's not how I remember Simon Jones in the role. Daily Mail reader was how I thought of him. Very (small-c) conservative, intolerant views, but basically a gentle coward.

Mitchell is too gloomy and superior, & Webb too lightweight and superficial. Marvin & Zaphod would have been my casting choices for them. From their milieu, I would take James Bachman as Arthur - anonymous, gentle, but acerbic & Matt King as Ford - nicely dodgy, & a bit thick.

I hope there is a special brandy gravy sauce which you can heat up, pour over, and ignite.

More "The Drugs Don't Work" than "Heroin", I'd say...
