So I've taken Facebook off my phone, and now only gave Bluesky. Whilst I love all #TheArchers stuff, the latest Minneapolis news is so upsetting. And I'm powerless. Grim.

Somebody posted the YouTube link to Harry Hill’s spoof TV documentaries from 2020. I’ve watched just this bit on police tape six times and each time my head hurts from laughing.
But also the uneasy music at the start, and the edge in the voiceover. I fine an element of the eerie in Hill’s comedy.

I am calling for a complete and total boycott of the Mercator projection in all news stories about Greenland until every member of the American public has seen this

#TheArchers Amber is very good at simpering isn't she? Very annoying. Also, I thought she did have a heart but now I'm not so sure. She had a possible get-out from George then and didn't take it, kept going on about how much she loves him. Grrrr! Covering for Brad being the claret clonker?

#TheArchers whodunnit? My money is on a combination of Fallon / Jazzer / Harrison, one of whom called ambulance and knows who did do it. Prob not Harrison as he's too weedy tho he might be involved in cover up.

When people say they want to go back to a time "when men were men", I point them to Issue 2528 of the "Men in Belted Sweaters" catalogue.

The HS2 Christmas Special
Some Christmas song lyrics that hit differently when imagined in the trailer for a film about a stalker. But first, I’m off to Buckinghamshire to find out how you build a new railway.

I've been called 'young lady' TWICE in the last couple of days. Wondering if I'm looking good, or so old that only flattery will save me. I'm going for looking good! 😁
