Hard to think of anywhere that shaped my musical and literary personality more strongly than Birmingham Central Library in the 1970s. Designed by John Madin in the Brutalist style, now sadly demolished. Great to see it being celebrated in these Christmas cards by @gailmyerscough.co.uk

That's a first. Using a fossil hammer to crack open a beef rib so the dog stops getting it stuck on his back teeth. Needs must.

The hidden chemical attack that forced the Northern line’s extraordinary repair
Thirty years ago, an entire section of the Northern line had to be replaced because it was under attack from acid, and hardly anyone noticed that it was happening.

If the sandwich stayed whole, the defense meets its goal
The defense team presses Lairmore on whether the sandwich really 'exploded.' They return to the photo of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground.
"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.
"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.

Trump: "We're gonna go steam first and then electric. Catapults, which is better, electric or stream? I'm gonna put in an order. Seriously. They're spending billions to build stupid electric. And the problem when it breaks you have to send up to MIT, get the most brilliant people in the world"

If I've learnt anything from spy films, is to run the water when unwrapping the cellophane from a mini baby-bel so the dog doesn't hear.

Had a large yellow bag of wooden fence removed today. The driver/crane operator had some very strong views around how good Nigel Farage was. Possibly when working it may be best to keep those opinions to oneself.
