I’m reminded of watching two old ladies ask a teenage goth for directions and she politely told them and when she was out of earshot one lady said “You know where you are with a goth”
Things are Terrible, but this isn't.
Be weird.

New from Gnomemart: Wrist Bike Bell.
Fed up with other pedestrians dawdling along, looking at their phones? Just one ring on the Wrist Bike Bell and hey presto! The pavement is yours as they dive out of the way thinking a Lime bike is about to run them over!
From the new Private Eye, out now.

Just passing through the Pennines (namely Royston Vasey) as I head back to Manchester. The shops offer some rather questionable Christmas card options.

OMG, I'd totally forgotten that bit where Matt Smith is getting bummed by a Cyberman 🤣🤣🤣
Still not sure why, but I really didn’t dig this one. Even though it’s got Dr Who in it!
Christmas Ident Calendar Day 22. BBC1 asked viewers to consider themselves one of us in 2011. Stars sang the song from Lionel Bart's Oliver. Several idents including one with The Gruffalo & child. Christmas Day top 3: Downton Abbey 12.11m, EastEnders 11.33m, Doctor Who 10.77m.
