I think my colleague, Jeff’s theory that the Bay City Rollers and the Wurzels were the Blur and Oasis of the 1970s has a lot to commend it

Last Christmas, you gave us first class: Royal Mail turns Scrooge with gift to staff of second-class stamps
Switch comes amid first festive season since Daniel Křetínský’s takeover of parent company IDS
Royal Mail says that it has “delivered Christmas” for more than 500 years, but this year many workers have been left feeling less than festive after the company downgraded a small gift to workers to second class.
The postal service, which traces its history back to the appointment of a “master of the posts” by Henry VIII in 1516, has given workers a collection of 50 Christmas stamps to recognise their work over the busiest time of year. In previous years, including in 2024, workers have received a book of 50 or 100 first-class stamps, but that has quietly been switched to second class this year. Continue reading...

My great-grandad was a piano tuner from Huddersfield. He was conscripted into the army during the First World War, and had an awful time. After I found out a bit about what he went through, I wrote a short story. I thought today might be a good day to share it. richarddsmyth.com/2025/11/09/n...
New short story: ‘FP Number Two’
The sky shivers with fever and there are devils on the roofs of the public houses.

The wooden skeleton permanently affixed to a neighbour's side gate is wearing its crocheted poppy again. No "lest we forget" sash and beret this year though, which is disappointing

I love people who know how to get stains out of clothes. Not dry cleaners, that’s their job, I mean the woman who tears across the street and kicks the door in to tell you that you need to soak an ink stain with hand sanitiser before washing it on a low heat. Those people have seen some shit.

I listen to this while jogging, which is dangerous at my age. The vexing political flim-flam they expose pushes me into heart attack territory, but then they say something very funny, which, fortunately, triggers spontaneous laughter, stimulating my chest, which has the effect of a defibrillator.

My Halloween contribution. Boniface family reunion c.1944. My grandma is on the back row and the baby (bloke) she’s holding is my dad. Nobody knows who the mysterious spectre in the window is.
PS this is a straight-up honest undoctored photo which is a bit disconcerting tbh
