Happy 100th birthday Kenny. I'm sorry you were so unhappy. You don't half cheer me up.

You are incapable of feeling shame, Starmer so I'm not going to bother wishing it on you. Just go to Hell and take the rest of the Labour party with you.
Respect to all the ordinary folks who put it on the line to challenge this disgusting law.

Charlie Brooker says meringue sounds like it was named by the person who invented them at the point they'd taken their first mouthful.
Lots of Labour peeps furious that Lord Mandeldson did some insider dealing with Epstein over the 2008 financial crash.
They'll livid when they find out Tony Blair lied through his teeth to get into a war that killed two million Iraqis in order to suck up to the US President.
I am currently reading Jane Eyre.
I have never come across a fictional character I dislike more than St. John Rivers. More than Count Dracula or anyone from any Victor Serge novel I've read or anyone.
What a KNOB.
Such a dark, glum conclusion to the series. More like a Gothic Play for Today.
A gothic Play for Today, now THERE'S an idea!
Wow!!!
Ripple in still water,
When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow.
You who choose to lead must follow,
But if you fall, you fall alone.
If you should stand, then who's to guide you?
If I knew the way I would take you home...

I used to do fundraising for Haven House. And in the last couple of years I have learnt what dying looks like.
I hate the Labour Party with every fibre of my being. I hope the bastards making these decisions die in fear and pain. They deserve it.

"In a statement the International Guild of Pigs and Associated Farmyard Swine or the GPAS pointed out that they are sentient and show signs of self preservation but that doesn't seem to get them many rights."
I wonder what Claude tastes like barbecued?
A glorious rendition of Joe Morley's "A Georgian Breeze" from Chris Sands with Alexis Rogerson on fortepiano.
Chris tells me this was one of the first banjo tunes he ever heard, it was played to him by the chap he bought his first banjo from!

Your grandad shot at nazis
taxed the rich and built the NHS
You mum fought for equality
and fairness, nonetheless
we sleepwalked into the arms
of bastard billionaires
Now you hang flags from lampposts
and mouth pantomime prayers
The best GSfC of the Gatis era? No arch winking at the camera or is it real or not Scooby Doo business. Atmosphere, character and chills. Nice one!

Blink and you'll miss her spot from Maddy Smith too.
Also Freesat which is what I use.
Just had a chap in to fix my satellite dish.
"To be honest" I told him "there's only one channel watch on this."
His face split into a grin and he asked "Talking Pictures?" "Yes" I said to which he replied "I hear that all the time!"

He just went for a little walk...
Am I the only one who found the ultimate horror reveal rather spoilt because it just reminded me of the Itchy and Scratchy where he gets his fur caught in an escalator?
Saw this at the Sheffield screening a couple of weeks back. It's interesting although I don't rate it as highly as you. Will be interested to hear what you think.
It's that day when I share this song I produced for an organisation called No Glory a few years back.
The donkeys are wearing poppies the lions should wear something else.
