Just completed another Newsround. Keir Starmer is stinking up the place (not in today's show but still hanging around) so I am going to put him in the washing machine. Perhaps that was the solution all along.

I’m on @herring1967.bsky.social’s RHLSTP Book Club podcast which came out today! I talk to Richard about my book Do You Believe in Ghosts? Plus we find time to discuss the links between Lily Allen’s new album and 2:22 A Ghost Story! Listen here: www.rhlstp.co.uk/website.cgi?page=podcasts&id=2754

But obviously Rich and Ally's Craven Newsround is obviously the best thing I do. Hopefully another ep today if my car gets fixed soon (I am waiting in the garage). How did John Craven manage to do this every day and also live his life?
Nope, I love Book Club - it's a very different show, but glad it's working and people are buying the books.
Is it controversial to be a bigger fan of Book club than RHLSTP? Even if I have no idea who the guest is I enjoy them and have bought several books having listened.

Very few tickets left for Educating Rita in April. We might put on a couple more shows, but might not. So if you want to see it book now (and you might not be able to sit next to the person you came with - or come alone!) qmt.org.uk/production/e...

I thought RHLSTP with David Mitchell would be my 1st trip to Leicester Square Theatre but this is too good a bill to miss
Still some £18.50 tickets left for this RHLSTP on the 23rd (ridiculously). Save yourself £3 by booking now
www.leicestersquaretheatre.com/show/richard...
This will be such a good night, I promise. Two amazing guests. And a surprisingly adequate host.

It's time to give a one-balled man a shot at leadership. It's never been tried and certainly never had terrible consequences beyond all understanding.

Imagine if you hadn't bothered to get all the vowels. Could have done it in 3 and won. Also if you're playing easy mode none of it counts anyway. In fact 4 is a bit embarrassing.

It’s foolish to go for vowels which are easy to find later. I am playing hard mode so you want to illuminate as many consonants as possible straight away. Nearly always get it in 3 or 4 this way which are only acceptable results. But ultimate goal is 15 (different) blanks owed by 5 greens.
How have you not got all vowels covered by guess 2? Some crazy first 3 words there. One of them was crazy, wasn’t it 😀
