I've got two of my very limited Bowie/Mr Benn A3 Giclee prints on fancy art paper back in stock. Each one has secret, unique details! £50 plus p&p if you want one.

Excellent episode featuring the wonderful and friendly "The Glad" pub in Borough where I ate the best Gobi Manchurian I have ever tasted.

We are off to see David Bowie tonight, so I'll let you know what he's like live.

Rude, but also aww. Busby and Best.

Fess: I bought George Best a glass of wine in the Phene Arms in Chelsea back in the 90s.

Feel a bit guilty about it tbh.

There honestly cannot be a satire cutting enough to make fun of Americans. What the fuck do you mean the highest colonial ideal you could imagine was a parking lot with McDonald's on both sides

Fantastic from former Blaze cricketer de Klerk. RCB were on the ropes, but she held her nerve, and that last over was *chef's kiss* #WPL2026

My local newsagent stocks the conspiracy rag 'The Light' because it's a free paper. Since it's free, whenever I see it there I take all the copies home with me to burn in my fire. They probably think they have great local readership.

People missed work and whole schools were shepherded into their assembly halls so they could watch television footage of a shipwreck being raised on a Monday morning.

Something Putin taught us is that the goal of effective propoganda isn't to convince people, it's to create a permission structure:

a) for your existing hardcore supporters to back you; and

b) for those not engaged to tune out because it's all too complicated or partisan politics as usual.
The no-angeling is already in full swing.

The US government is now freely killing people at sea, in other lands, and on its own streets.

It is difficult to see what more is needed for Congress and the Supreme Court to exercise their constitutional duty to check and balance what is now a rogue state abroad and a gangster state at home.

Alt txt: a tweet from Sam_D_1995 on X: The Everything app reads: it's probably worth noting that for all of the right-wing narrative around Minneapolis being unsafe, there has only been *one* homicide in the city so far this year.
it happened today and was committed by a masked ICE agent

Hear me out

The EPL X-Manager Factor

A reality show swapping all the EPL's sacked managers into vacancies at other clubs who have also sacked their managers

From now until the end of the season. Who will be most victorious and who will suffer agonising humiliation?

DHS tweeted this yesterday. Little more than 24 hours later, ICE agents just shot and killed a legal observer in Minneapolis.

Clannad theme tune intensifies
Since y'all asked nicely, here's my complete history of Robin of Sherwood. One of the finest TV shows ever made. Hugely influential. Most modern cinematic/TV Robin Hood tropes trace back to it.

As Herne would say:

"Nothing is forgotten. Nothing is ever forgotten."
