Be Happiness Itself... The Buddha. LOVE is the only way to defeat hate.
Love Music, Films, Reading & Good TV Photography & Buddhism…Love Terry Pratchett’s Discworld & the Slough House novels & the Slow Horses TV series
Not necessarily in that order…

Heartbreaking night where I told the final audience for Monkey Cage that I will ever play to that I had no choice but to resign
In the audience today at the amazing Niamos theatre in Manchester for the Christmas recording of Infinite Monkey Cage. Devastating news from @robinince.bsky.social - what must have been an incredibly difficult decision but absolutely the correct and humane one. Robin remains the best of us.

@robinince.bsky.social oh the unknown marxist (forgive no capital I’ve never read) here, my application for DG at BBC is in. So pin back your lugholes it’ll be getting loud but true. And you won’t be sacked. “Mock of the Week” will be back if Dan Patterson is interested.

ALIEN first time I saw a woman (at the cinema) in a lead role. 1979. I wasn’t 18 but my dad snuck me in saying I was. I ate popcorn in the ads before the film and stopped when the title started. I know the gif is Ghostbusters but you can’t keep a good actor down.

I will second this. I fear that the monkey cage has become finite. It will come to an end 2025. Why because Mr Ince gives a voice to those who not heard.🫡
By the gods I hope I’m wrong. I’ve learned and laughed so much thanks to Mr Ince and the never ageing Prof. Brian Cox. How is the strawberry?🍓

Anyone know what a (I’m guessing the spelling) labatry is? A laboratory in a lavatory or the other way round? Or is it something new I’ve not heard of before? (Wouldn’t surprise me). Oh it was part of a report on BBC radio 4 news about how cats behave toward male owners (ffs)

Rated The Night Manager (2016– ) 8/10 #IMDb the 2016 series is very good. It’s worth the watch. Why it’s taken nearly a decade for a 2nd series I can’t imagine. Unless the makers were prepared to wait for every cast member to be available!? Something the 4th chapter of The Matrix should have done!

FUNCTIONAL ILLITERACY
I frequent a diner where many elderly visit. I'm old too. When the waiter asks me what i want i read from the menu. When the waiter goes to others, some do that too, but some need the waiter to read it to them. I dismissed it until now. Holy crap!

@robinince.bsky.social be very careful how you talk to Mr Fridman. A photoshop genius and I thought I wasn’t bad “replacing” suddenly missing teeth from smiles and stuff but I threw my paper in the air in desperation.
