My Rommie girl does too - even when it's raining! But she has learned to appreciate her comfy bed - mine too! πŸ™„πŸ€£

Thanks for the reminder - I meant to get it but it completely slipped my mind. πŸ˜† I've just ordered it.

Brilliant satirical cover from Private Eye, mocking spineless media organisations and journalists who submit and cower in the face of power πŸ‘

Fishermen left feeling 'betrayed' by Brexit 'Brexit was sold to our fishermen as a golden opportunity, yet the truth is that many fishermen have experienced the complete opposite'

The liars, of course, have all moved on to new cons & deceptions. The fishing industry can't. A vaguely honest media would be holding Farage & the rest to account for this instead of promoting a meaningless petition...

Same here. I've seen them so many times over the years and with various different line-ups and they have never sounded better. And the energy they have at their age puts me to shame! πŸ˜†

Here's my painting of David Bowie and Ann Magnuson from The Hunger (1983). It's part of my Silver Scream exhibition for the Picturehouse Cinema (also viewable online). Do please check it out - or maybe even buy it! Thanks.

I've been going to see them for over 30 years (showing my age there πŸ™„) and they genuinely haven't sounded better. They've already got a couple of festival gigs for next year so pretty sure there'll be another tour as well. Hope so anyway 🀞🀞🀞

Went to see Squeeze again last night. My 4th time this year! πŸ˜† It was amazing and they have never sounded better. Just wondering if there's any way I can squeeze (if you pardon the pun) one more show in before they end the tour! πŸ€”

I'm going to see them tomorrow at RAH. I have to confess -it's my 4th time this year as I did the warm up gigs in Twickenham and saw them in Ipswich. I can honestly say they're the best they've ever been!

Same here although I guessed it was dodgy as it said follow back and I already follow Reece. I've also blocked them!

I'm still dipping my toe in both places at the mo but feel much safer and happier here. I interact more now which I never do in the Other Place now.

I really enjoyed it! As with all these things you need to suspend your disbelief quite a lot but it was well done with a brilliant cast.

Ooh 20k followesr on BlueSky - that's pretty healthy but obviously not quite the million we had/have on the sad old shit hole that Twitter is these days. Do tell your friends that Fesshole is HERE, so that they can follow us / block us, dependent on their feelings.

It’s Not Hard To Find, You’ve Got It In Your Mind Why the songs from The Goodies are much better than you’d expect from anything recorded to accompany speeded-up slapstick.

One aspect of The Goodies that hardly ever gets talked about - how good the music is...
