I’ve read There Will Come Soft Rains, and after that, cannot imagine owning any smart house stuff. Got friends who love it, but not for me

I can’t imagine Remember You’re A Womble would set thighs quivering.

As sensible places to site major buildings go, Ely is at least 650 milliVenices.

The cathedral up the hill from where I’m sitting has foundations a maximum of six feet deep, and is bobbing up and down on a swamp.

If that was at the Apollo today, I was just down the road at the Harold Pinter, seeing the Weir (which I recommend unreservedly, provided you enjoy Irish stuff)

That’s lovely. A hint of Paul Nash in the colour palette.

That would be a jolly episode of Call My Bluff. I can just see Frank Muir spinning a yarn.

Trying to explain to young folk just how much childhood viewing was interrupted by films designed to scare us witless (or into wit) is no easy task.

That’s been sitting by the southeast corner of the Minster for ages - I wonder if they’re afraid to pick it up in case the tongue bites them?

(Very, very non-Bluesky opinion klaxon) I suspect the WWT experience depends very much on how many followers you have. I have almost none, post almost nothing, and my feed is mostly cats and churches. I see far less right wing content there since all the “look at this!!!” shock posters moved here.

I saw that and immediately tried to book a table in a couple of weeks before everyone else reads it. No such luck, alas - you are clearly right about them being onto something good.

Not an answer to your query, alas, but just found my feed had moved to Discover, and I had to change it back to Following like a shot. BS is depressing enough without encouraging it to randomly dump more of it on you.

I keep feeling I should give baseball a proper look, but whenever I do (last time was my only trip to Canada, when I was in Toronto), I seem to bounce off it a bit. It feels very weighted to the pitching team to me, but as I am ignorant on the subject, I could be totally wrong.

It’s amazing what physical media you can pick up in charity shops at the moment, as people continue to hurl out physical media collections in favour of trusting mega corps with their leisure needs through streaming

Ironically, I saw this repost in a break from looking through pictures of postwar Berlin, which can make you glad to live just about anywhere by comparison.

I’ve tried and failed a few times, mainly due to the middle bit about Lucy and Mina lasting about eight years. I did get through a 3CD audiobook version, though, with (I think) Brian Cox doing a good Van Helsing.
