Town Councillor for Bulwark, Chepstow. I probably won't do much politics on this site - I'm here for the other stuff - comics, books, films, beer, football, music. For my lukewarm takes on political issues, find me at @jimmact_politx in the shouty place.
Laughton may have been a bit of an unpleasant character, and certainly not an actor that was easy to love. But oh my goodness, this movie has all that "look what I can do" energy that Citizen Kane has. It's a childhood nightmare to match Ray Bradbury. Just a joy.

Been munching my way through these for the last few weeks. Very close to the TV series, and that's not a bad thing, but also a great read. I'm really looking forward to getting to the books that the TV series didn't do. Recommended.

I needed a long lie down after that one. Magnificent, hard hitting TV.

Fabulous. How do you tell it apart from a common carder, out of interest?

Loved these. Don McGregor. Kirby came back to Marvel and took over Black Panther, as he was probably entitled to do. But it changed from something sublime to something loud and much less interesting, in my opinion.

Wow! I've been having that dream for 40 years. I hope you get an answer. I've got no idea.

I enjoyed programming the ZX Spectrums to play random notes and paint the screen with random colours - then walk away 😔 Similarly - the Jupiter Ace could do a nice "boom"

Aye, I was just about to recommend Singl End in Merchant City. Easy to get there from the city centre. Great breakfast. I'm vegan but the meaty version looked good too www.thesingl-end.co.uk/merchant-city
The Singl-end Cafe and Bakehouse
Breakfast, brunch and fresh cakes are served every day in our quirky cafe in Glasgow city centre. Dog-friendly and accessible, and can cater for vegan and gluten-free diets.

Totally agree. I wanted to love it, but... I enjoyed some stuff. I absolutely loved that Rachel Garrett is in it. But, yes. Section 31 were terrifyingly clever and nasty in Discovery. And now they're Slow Horses.

Love this! I had Major Matt and the space sled. Also his sidekick, Sergeant Storm (in a fetching red spacesuit). I had wanted them for so long!
