England seemed to him to be nothing but horrors and misery now. The very shapes of the trees were like frozen screams.

How Lana Del Rey became a darling of the Right
Her turn to marriage, modest living and a homespun new album now reads as political provocation in a polarised US

This is really important. Before you begin performing CPR on a woman, you must remove her bra as the wire can prevent effective compression. This immediately makes things awkward, especially if you a straight man, but there's no time to lose. More training & awareness is needed. Please sign.

Aldi have launched a new Indian food range today and it is bloody lovely. You could feed four people for about £25. The vindaloo is nice, but could be hotter.*

There's no media training here. This is just a woman speaking from the heart. She is kryptonite to Reform.

#NowPlaying For me, the easiest entry into the world of progressive rock. This lot knew how to write songs, the extended instrumental passages were clever, well structured and never outstayed their welcome. Not sure if any singles were released, but there are a couple of dynamite pop songs here.

Woke up yesterday feeling fine. By late afternoon I had developed a heavy cold. Now I am at the stage where my ribcage is hurting from all the coughing. This feels like the bastard offspring of Covid. FFS.

No way. I'm in a heavy John Le Cárre zone right now and this just won't do. What do they call it? Soft influence? The UK grows weaker by the day.
And another bites the dust?
