Thanks - punchline to a very old joke (why do the french never have 2 eggs for breakfast). Always, dare I say, cracks me up.

Ah, I did wonder. Do I have the energy...

PS right, so that's who just appeared in the train seat beside me. I might offer them some peanuts.

Quick posting question Neil - are you using something like buffer for cross-posting to fedi and bluesky? I have my fedi account bridged but it has its disadvantages..

Oh, also nice deployment of the 5-syllable Nyarlathotep there :-)

thanks! I agree, 20 years from now it might be a curiosity, still so raw now.

Got my copy now. Gorgeous isn't it... thanks for the prompt!

Amazing and yes, I've had to go back and listen again. Mostly because of how, after you put all the toys back in the box by giving us the cast list, you did a massive rug-pull with the final few words of the Loudburst ad. You cunning devils. Just what I wanted to hear..

Damn right. I'm not going to recount all the shit from those times that I'm still dealing with, but yeah no cosy nostalgia thanks

This was beautiful and devastating, Alex, and just like episode 1 it'll be getting a few repeat plays during the week.

Oh brilliant! (in an Arthur Shappey sort of voice).

As my friends say, "so middle class, the rest of us just get plagued by pigeons"

I'll see your parakeet and raise you...

Condolences and, having just spent the weekend in Deal, yes it does.
