I like the Carry On films but the lore is too confusing, impossible for modern audiences to accept these people could play a major part in the French Revolution AND lose their bras on camping holidays

NO ONE CARES!
No one cared when he turned into an australian for a movie and then back to the grumpy scotsman.
No one cared when Judi Dench was still M even though that screwed the timeline.
No one cares that Bons should now be in his nineties...
We just want a fun spy movie.

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Checked through mag, all seems fine, so I’m going to have some toast then finish off getting it live, exciting stuff
Apart from anything else it’s a really nice object, hopefully some people will buy it & feel the same way

I know this sounds like “think of the children” but this is the perfectly wrong time for an X-Files reboot.
Beside the fact there are way too many conspiricist who think they’re Mulder and that’s got us where we are, belief in conspiracy isn’t a reaction to a cover-up. It’s government policy

There’s something in bin day being a weird little part of your identity, I’ve considered making them into sport teams with fancy logos, so you Wednesday Wasters or The Tuesday Trash & heroic imagery of hi-vis clad people flinging bins or hurtling around in a lorry
A radio programme like the Shipping Forecast but it’s called Bin Day and it just reads out every single council in the country’s bin schedule

Spoke to someone tonight who was at his 200th Half Man Half Biscuit gig. I suggested it must be something of a record, at which he nodded to the guy next to him, who coughed “221…”

Cautiously optimistic that mag is ready to go so I’ve taken some pics & now going to see if they work OK in the site, if not I’ll redo them tomorrow
Later I’ll compare pages with the PDF proofs & Affinity Publisher just in case anything went awry somehow

If it’s 10 November, it must be... yes, of course: the 55th anniversary of Sacheen Littlefeather being crowned Miss American Vampire by Regis Philbin as part of a promotion for American TV show Dark Shadows (before she went on to be more famous for turning down Marlon Brando’s Oscar…)

Printed copy of magazine’s arrived!
Good news: front cover looks fine, back isn’t v vibrant but OK, & greys inside look spot-on from a quick peek
Bad news: it’s got blank pages inserted at the back (Lulu says this can happen "depending on where the order is fulfilled”, so seemingly unavoidable)

Might extract it from that capture and put it into my email signature, see how long it takes for someone to ask about the ape
Watching Murders In the Rue Morgue (Robert Florey, 1932) and marvelling at the cute little ape letterhead on the writing paper of Dr. Mirakle (Bela Lugosi), Dr. Mirakle who is abducting women and injecting them with ape blood in order to create a mate for his murderous sideshow ape. Pre Code, yes.
