Not breaking news by Trump has been caught cheating at golf again. In just 7 months, he’s spent 43 days on the course, costing US taxpayers $60.2M. Golf courses are widely known as hotspots for organized crime and clandestine meetings or information drop offs.

A quick question.
I had a voice note from my 14 year old daughter earlier. She was cooking bolognese and decided to put gravy granules in it. Is it too late to put her up for adoption?

Bizarre thing happened to me yesterday that my teenage self would not believe. I was playing at the gig to celebrate the life of the genius that was Neil Innes. Whilst waiting backstage to go on, Michael Palin sang the lumberjack song to me, in German.

Imagine for a moment that 1,000+ Irish, British, French, US or German medics had been murdered, hundreds more tortured in last 12 months.
Whatever regime had committed such atrocities would have been wiped off the map by now.
Unless Israel did it, in which case, no problem, keep on killing.

In Antalya, Turkey, a 70-year-old who went missing during heavy snowfall was discovered by search teams at the foot of a tree, hugging their lambs for warmth. Some parts of Turkey are getting battered by snow at the moment.

If you voted Trump to lower costs, the next four years are going to be a real kick in the pants.
Luckily, you won't be able to afford pants.

From 2,000 years ago ~ remarkably-conserved frescoes from the Villa of Livia, wife of the Emperor Augustus. The villa was rediscovered in 16C just outside Rome & was probably part of the dowry Livia brought to her marriage in 39 BC (Palazzo Massimo Museum)
