Or she is a clothes rack. Judging by Trump’s face someone just put a light bulb up his arse.

Don’t forget the dolls house.

Astonishing, it surprises me how many people who despise Trump and Musk are heedless when it comes to social media choices. Or should that be headless?

I remember when Tony Palmer reviewed the Beatles in The Observer, mid 1960s, that was considered noticeable. The cultural categories were starting to lose their relevance. Lady Chatterly’s trial was a big game changer too.

All of a question of taste in our relative times in terms of high middle low culture. Does the distinction still exist? In any case, for starters, Abba and punk, that covers a range of
choices.

Indeed, bonny😀, although babies may be bony.

Do we say “former pharmacist” or “former fighter” a in ex “fighter pilot”? It can’t be simply alliteration because “bony baby” is said.

I do indeed, we are very active members of a Wake and Ulysses Zoom study/reading group, hosted by Glasgow University.

Trump is doing his best to meet this bloke’s wish. I hope Trump is not colour blind and presses the wrong coloured button.

Len Deighton is indeed still and probably still cooking. I haven’t read anything of his for many years but I devoured his books during 1960s and 70s. I recently watched the Ipcress File and Funeral in Berlin on the BBC, cracking stories and the films hold up more than ever, with good old M Caine.

David, brilliant band. When You Walk in The Room is an iconic 60s record
