I've just laughed so much that I've given myself a nosebleed!

A lot of stupid people voted for Brexit. And a lot of them still think it's a good idea.

Not exactly an independent viewpoint from the stock market investment business, is it?!

Coincidentally, IG operates a stock market investment business!

To think that no-one isn't recycling is just as naive as the people who think this idea will make a difference. It's a misguided, pointless idea which will only add complexity, increase prices and cause confusion.

If it's already mandatory, then this scheme is not only pointless but unnecessary.

Put up the prices of every bottle? No thanks. And the only people who will use this are the people who are already recycling. The ones that aren't already recycling simply don't care.

I think that's the first time anyone involved in making the last two series has openly admitted that something went wrong.

No-one would have believed that in the last years of the 20th Century one album could sell 15 million copies...

The C64 was a great machine, but the ZX Spectrum was truly groundbreaking. The fact I can now run Spectrum games on my mobile phone just blows my mind, but what really surprises me are the new Spectrum peripherals: SD card readers to replace tape loading, updated ROMs and HDMI adapters. Wow!

Excellent! I hope Colin and your boys enjoy playing it.

Fingers crossed! They weren't very robust even in the 1980's! Will you have to hunt out a cassette player to load Jet Set Willy?

Nice original box!

The problem is once you've been overweight you will always have a lot more fat cells in your body. Weight loss will shrink them, but they will bounce back like a dried out sponge in water given the first opportunity. The fat cells would have to be physically removed using liposuction to stop that.

I've been off Bluesky for about a year. I'm glad to find you and Colin still here, and still giving me something to laugh about.

Another one taken too young. His autobiography is worth a read.

Thanks for reminding me of the years of Hamble-phobia. (Not!) My mother's childhood creepy doll looked just like her and I always felt it was watching me.

It's a strange World we're living in... Don't let the Nazis get you down.

I've never compiled my own favourite "Top 40", but Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime would certainly be in it.

Good to know that The Korgis are still making new music. I must check that out.

Things are better here than at the other place.

Nimbys.

Weirdly, I have no recollection of ACE magazine, though I was already buying PCW every week and five or six monthly magazines back then.

Ah yes: The Odyssey. That legendary story about vampires and helicopters. Not!

The richest 20,000 people, 0.00025% of the population have $45tn.

That is enough to buy every single house in the World.

Brrr!

#totp January 92. The start of the re-vamp years, when they switched the hosts to kids TV presenters and soap actors. Also when I stopped watching.

That was Sylvester McCoy and Bonnie Langford singing on that charity single! #totp

#totp This week in 1988 is surprisingly awful.

Meanwhile supermarkets are making huge profits, massively up from a few years ago and their CEO's and other directors are being paid £millions every year.

So true. I know a few of these Muppets.
