Take That's profile pic on Spotify is hilarious. Gary has indigestion after a pub lunch half-way on a country walk. He doesn't know if he can continue.
Gary: I knew that Ploughman's was a mistake.
Mark: Take your time.
Howard: Looks like it's going to rain, anyway. We can do the rest another day.

That's it. Edinburgh Fringe is over for 2025. To commemorate this, I recreated the ending of Breaking Bad. You can watch it on my Instagram account here:

Keir Starmer is the political equivalent of a bed sheet that absorbs the smells of whatever it comes into contact with.
From Reform, it's stale ale and cheap cigarettes. From the Labour right, it's various types of mouldy excrement from 2010.

I queued for hours for an Oasis ticket for Edinburgh, but didn't succeed. It cost some people thousands.
I'm not missing out. I may also lose thousands from the Oasis gig due to the extreme accommodation costs stopping people from going to the Fringe and seeing my show.

While Andor is up there with some of the very best of Star Wars, I am gutted they never went to Dantooine. And we still haven't seen it in live action.
Mainly because of all the countless hours I've spent pissing about on there on KOTOR.
