Still trying to make my mind up about things.
There’s a cafe at the summit of the popular Fuente Dé Cable Car in La Picos de Europa. It’s the only cafe in the area. They can charge what they like, then add more for the stunning view. But for a large brandy and half a lager, the cost was €4.50.
What would be the cost in Britain, do you think?

An email breaks the news that eBay have updated their terms and conditions. Can’t wait to read.

Still stops me in my tracks after 50+ years of reading American novels: ‘Couple’ not being followed by ‘of’.
‘I had a couple samples ready.’
‘Beyond a couple leads, the police had nothing.’

A year on from all that fuss about Bibby Stockholm and I bet hardly anyone remembers who she was.

Conclave has beautiful cinematography and acting but the latter parts seem rushed. Unless you’ve read the book it’s not clear why things turn out the way they do.

Visited a site offering nutritional advice to pre-diabetics and the first thing it says is to accept cookies. Not what I was expecting but I'll take it.

X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.

Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?

If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

We’re heading into that strange, limbo-like time between New Year’s and Christmas.

It is impossible to underestimate my wife’s tolerance to Christmas music.

For me, the best dialogue in Black Doves was Jason ad-libbing to US Embassy lady Vanessa why she needed a security detail. “Yes, er, because of Al Quaeda. They went away. Now they’ve returned. And they’re furious.”

When trying to decide what to buy my 12-year-old nephew for Christmas, I think back to what I’d have liked when I was 12. Does anyone else do that? I think I was probably still at the lager stage.

Mark Twain: ‘Damascus has seen all that has ever occurred on earth, and still she lives. She has looked upon the dry bones of a thousand empires, and will see the tombs of a thousand more before she dies’.

According to #Spotify Wrapped, my second most-played song in 2024 is one I have honestly never heard before. It's called A Calf Born In Winter by Khruangbin. Nope, me neither.

Just learned that the name of the ship that brought back news of Lord Nelson’s death at the Battle of Trafalgar was HMS Pickle.
If he’d died and the French and Spanish had won they were going to send HMS Total Fuckup.

Syrian Christians in Sahnaya, Damascus are celebrating the revolution's victory and liberation around a Christmas tree, church bells rang in celebration. #freeSyria

So rebel forces are closing in on Damascus, but I fail to see why this should be a problem for Asda.

Quietly proud that at this time of year people happily get to grips with a song that has no fewer than 34 changes in time signature.
Know its title?
