"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts."
Here's two for you:

Look up Stowe School. That's where he went to.

"The Logical Song" was (mostly) written about the school principal songwriter Roger Hodgson went to. I went to the same school, his cousin was in my brothers year.

AOR as it was mostly called. Adult (or Album) Oriented Rock, or as Steve Lukather called it in one "Yacht Rock" documentary I saw: "Tuesday."

If you haven't already try the Sky Follower Bridge to find out which accounts you follow on twitter are on here. I've just used it, it works pretty well.

It *might* here. The demographic has changed over the last 10 years or so. It's younger here now, due to quite a lot of new housing being built in the area, so less retired Colonel types harrumphing into their pink gins, but there's still a lot of inertia to overcome.

The next GE will be interesting. Chichester has never returned anything other than a Conservative MP since the seat was created sometime in the early 1800s. So if it flips Labour or Lib Dem it will be seismic out of proportion to the size of her majority.

My local MP, majority "only" 21.5k. She's probably a tad concerned.

Sony WF-1000XM5 are the market leaders and have reviewed very well, I don't have a pair so can't personally vouch for them. I use Bowers & Wilkins PI7 S2's, which have exceptionally good sound quality, but are pricy.

I am a huge fan of Lewis's. In his absolute pomp there was no one faster than him over a single flying lap & very few that were better than him wheel to wheel. It's notable though that Alonso stayed in Spain (and paid punitive taxes during their fiscal crisis) & has also set up a carting program.

I like an Oasis song as much as most & the first two albums are great, but essentially they're an updated Status Quo with better PR.

Kindles, amazingly, still use micro usb, as do some bike lights (I recently got a new one which did, rather to my surprise). It's annoying, but definitely worth keeping a few.

My children love the stuff. I think it's honkingly vile. I'm beginning to wonder if they're mine.

It's expensive (for what it is) but the alcohol free Tanqueray is surprisingly palatable. Not bad at all.

If you're talking about @showerabsolute.bsky.social then yes, he's definitely here, doesn't post much yet though.

I have a child like that. Cannot hear the words "bath time" when bellowed outside his room, but can hear the word "chocolate" when whispered four or five rooms away.

They're making more money off you that way. The mark up for petrol is infinitesimal. That's why all the petrol stations have become supermarkets.

Fair enough, I'll still check in when the time comes though. I don't have people beating a path to my door begging for a code.
September 26, 2023 at 12:39 PM
I don't have any yet, and I see you've been sorted out, but you still get first dibs on my first code, only fair.

Yes. My wife is a huge fan & got his first autobiography which I read as well. I can recommend, it's an excellently scurrilous read.
