Elon will now need another country who accepts white South Africans as one seeking asylum. It is funny, though.

He's what you'd get if you ordered Bob Hoskins off Temu.

Won't you PUH-LEASE think of those poor unemployed generators? (Enough Farage pls. - Ed.)

Just read it. Fascinating stuff. Looked at The Dreaming's web site and they have a bursary wait list for people to get their visits subsidised when they can't afford the asking rate. Really love the idea of that.

Must be a reference for "I Don't Wanna Talk About It" in this

Put me down for some discount foie gras with a mystery meat chaser. Fluffy ruffs on the side.

It was unexpectedly warm in Chicago when my wife and I were getting her visa from the British Consulate in the Wrigley Building in August 2001. I'm sure you recall, heat index in the 110s I believe. Went on river/lake tour to cool off, guy running it took pity on us and let us ride again for free...

All Things Must Pass was a double LP. Absolutely sublime. But outside of that, a bit hit-and-miss.

Should've gone in at Basildon Bond and worked down.

Some of the things being written are a bit much. But Venky's did make blunder after blunder in the beginning and I've got a lot of sympathy to the argument that it would appear that league position notwithstanding, that they are opaque at best with little engagement with fans. Perception is reality.

Solid choice. One of those kids shows with humour adults watching with kids (or rewatching when adults) can appreciate, and laugh again for different reasons. I'd put the original Danger Mouse and Count Duckula in that bracket. And the woefully unrepeated "Diamond Brothers" series from 1991.
