Proud father first. Bad gardener second. Wagnerite. Qualified performing clown and proud Ruddles Man.
War Diary Day 4: It is a long and weary journey from Kiev to the battlegrounds of Donetsk. But with a thermos for company, anything can be overcome. The people with me are stern but optimistic: they tell me they expect to be in Georgia within hours! A great running joke.

To my fellow 'First Edition Freaks': what books are top of your lists of rare finds you'd love to get your hands on?

For me it's got to be the one, the only, the incomparable, "Some Day I'll Find You" by Richard Madeley. Terrific.

New technology is always a hot topic. What are some of the interesting new Ruddle Techs that you've seen coming through? In 10 years' time will AI be drinking Ruddles?

Hello @petermarsh.bsky.social, where the devil have you been??? Didn't something odd happen to you? I forget.

It's all very well to ask why Savile, for example, was not prosecuted. But be serious - how can you expect to expand your voter-base if you imprison everyone outside of it?

Have any other Ruddlers made their way over from Witter to here? Leave a little Ruddle below to let me know! 👇

Thangam Debbonaire is Britain's first emo MP, and this diversity is something which we should be *extremely* proud of.

Well spoken. Honest. Respectable.

And dare I say... cool?

Is Ted Cruz the US answer to Keir Starmer?

I have found my way onto BlueSky after a brief flirtation with Instagram, which lasted only until I discovered that every single last 'Suggested Post' was barely a step down from Amish-themed pornography. Is this standard practice? Good Heavens.
