How long until one of them suggests giving refugees little tattoos with their registration number etc? Either none of them has the sense to go “er, hang on…” or they all hate each other so much they’ll keep quiet whilst others make horrific mistakes.

This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)

At a family wedding, my uncle was making introductions to the distant relatives. One cousin wore a red dress, my uncle says "and this is Aine, as you can see, she eats Special K"

Have to agree here. The BBC would not survive a Farage premiership so it needs to stop pandering to him. And raising editorial standards would fix a lot of its problems, including to some extent the transphobia.

Not sure what’s the worst thing I’ve watched tonight. The film Hounded on BBC2 or Liverpool’s performance against Crystal Palace.

Bit of a boring question but what do people consider is a reasonable portion of pasta? The bag I used last night suggested 75g (dried) but that seems so small. I normally use 100g and never considered it was too much. If I was having 75g I’d want a starter and pudding!

Invited to a friend’s house for dinner tonight and despite decades of practice I couldn’t find an excuse not to accept. Anyone had a nice bottle of wine recently? Can you remember what it was called and where you got it from?
