There are lots of very good covers of Beatles songs out there. But I still reckon one of the best is by the wonderfully named female group Fanny, absolutely kicking the shit out of 'Hey Bulldog'. Lovely stuff!

The best thing about having fragile pottery send to your home is that it comes with a free void, the abyss you shouldn't stare into and... oh wait, it's just Moortje.

Cover of the day: from December 1973, a London Borough of Hillingdon consultation document on road improvements in Hayes. A great shot of the EMI factory, which dominates the scene.

The Whamaggedon Discourse posts I like best are “why are we picking on this when [also good Christmas song] exists?” - no sorry those are bangers too

The Detectives - Thicker Than Water (BBC1, 1995). I could do a thread on this one alone. Briefly, damn near perfect Xmas ep. Consistently funny, smooth & deceptively simple plot, well acted, well shot, just the right amounts of melancholy & sentiment, with Xmas radiating every scene.

For our wedding, I came within sparrowfart of persuading the caterers to provide a menu option for "Sausage Surprise", which would have been a plate of mash with a couple of holes where some sausages should obviously have been. They were all for it, but I was advised the guests might lynch me.
Watching Eva Longoria In Spain and wishing Harry Hill’s TV Burp was still on…

So, happy 50th anniversary to Melody Maker’s review of Bohemian Rhapsody: “Queen, with a suitably baroque vocal orchestration, contrive to approximate the demented fury of the Balham Amateur Operatic Society performing The Pirates of Penzance”

seasonal reminder that if someone says they don't drink:
-it's none of your business why
-hosts should have several non-alcoholic beverage options
-the holidays can be a tough period for non-drinkers
-many jokes about not drinking are bad
-people are burned out and might just be tired
