The famous cone on the Duke Of Wellington statue has been replaced with a pigeon reading a newspaper - and the pigeon has a tiny cone hat.

Started watching For All Mankind after quasi-recommendation from @gregjenner.bsky.social. Thought I might like it but that Mrs T wouldn’t be gripped.

I was wrong. It’s spectacular. Into Season 3 now…

Ozyman, Ozyman-
dias does what no mortal can
and his works? are they there?
no, but maybe still despair
This is just to say

I have looked on
the works
that were in
the desert

and which
you were probably
thinking
would still stand

Forgive me
they were trunkless
so vast
and so old
Once upon a desert sandy
As through winds the trav'ling man he
Spied the face of Ozymandy
Lying, simply lying there
Suddenly there was some writing
Pon the plinth that he was sighting
That the sand and time were blighting
Quoth the statue, "Now despair"

Quoth the statue, "Now despair"
There was an old man you could gaze
At his works in despair in a daze
If you looked upon them
And were mere mortal men
'Ozymandias mighty', it says
My name is Pagliacci, Clown of Clowns. Look on my works, ye doctors; I despair.

I'm not saying that waitress in the restaurant last night was wearing a very low cut dress, but even though I'd ordered a Chablis, when she leaned over the table to fill my glass I ended up with a Semillon.
