I wonder if his mum will gatecrash a local radio phone-in to announce 'I agree with my son'

This is genius and will scare the crap out of you. Only 136 pages. Not much to say about the Beckhams.

Crazy that Lissa Evans has been kicked off here. We don't all have to agree with each other. I barely agree with myself.

Bloody hell Alien ep4 is good. Ardash Gourav and Babou Ceesay should be under house arrest.

Are you by any chance a male graduate in late middle age with a sentimental streak?

Delighted to be at the launch of 'The Ends' by
@tomshakespeare.bsky.social - a sequel to 'The Ha-Ha' and featuring the same blissful & artful mix of wit, plot and social comedy - but this time set in the far, far North....(rather than near Norwich). He did a good speech, too!

What about a writer who's on Instagram, but doesn't post or even look anymore because he can't switch the annoying ads/suggested post off?

The underground car park at Sainsbury's Nine Elms has been adopted as a skate park by about 400 kids and it is glorious.

My now-wife, an archaeologist by trade and training, had been out of work for over a year, and I was picking up a very slender living as a tour guide at the National Leprechaun Museum. You might think that I, a grown man with a degree and pretensions toward literary glory, was the subject of ribbing from friends about the fact I worked in — I repeat — somewhere called the National Leprechaun Museum. What’s striking to me now is that I was not. This was because almost none of my friends had jobs, and the fact that I had one at all meant I might as well have been a surgeon or an architect.

What is also striking is that very few of those jobless friends lived at home. I can think of one, maybe two. The rest, like me, lived in chaotic house shares, and crumbling flats, and appeared to spend every spare penny they had on cheap cans and tobacco, but the dole was just enough for them to live independently, to forge the bonds of adulthood that have been a rite of passage for young people of every generation since time immemorial.

I sincerely hope no one thinks I consider my own youth as a paradise, but the differences between then and now are worth pointing out.

Your 'entire' feed is a gentle Peter Drury troll. If I were your parent I would be worried about this. Try thinking of five positive things to say. Also, surely you mean 'Dreary' in line 2?
