As an experiment, I have brought Jessie into work. The first hour or so involved a lot of padding around and sniffing. Then she stretched out in the middle of the office and fell asleep, inches from the bed next to my desk. Eventually, she accepted the bed.

And here's the inside. Signed by Phil Gould ("Thanks mate") at a drum clinic in 1990, and by Mark King, Mike Lindup and Gary Husband ("again") on the Guaranteed tour in 1991. Gary added that "again" because by that point, I think I'd asked him to sign every surface known to man.

It's a medium, which I just about was at the time, being 14. I am very much not a medium now, but here it is, with 'medium-sized dog'* Daphne for scale.
* This was how she was advertised by the Romanian rescue she came from. She is not a medium-sized dog. She's rangey.

Blackpool: the classy chippy we're in has this board on the counter, telling us what variety of spuds they're frying. I'm not entirely sure I haven't seen Sagitta from Lincolnshire in the readers' wives section of Escort.

Yes, you could get a midi system. Or something like this. Stick with a big name - Sharp, Pioneer, etc - and you'll be grand. Much better than the cheaper record players made now.

Genuinely crying with laughter here at work having seen this picture of Michael Caine and his mother on one of those dubious AI nostalgia pages. The thing is that there are genuine pictures of Caine and his mother that look very similar - same clothes - but WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH HIS EYES?

I love how Chris Mason's picture on his Wikipedia page looks like he's watching an illegal cockfight in a barn in Essex. Horrified, but slightly aroused and unable to stop looking.

Looking for somewhere to have breakfast in Morecambe, we saw this unchanged 1920s/1930s Italian family ice cream parlour. Long live Brucciani's.
