At the back of your kitchen cupboard is something pickled or preserved in a jar that you were given for Christmas several years ago that youโ€™ve never quite felt like eating.

Throw it out now.

I sometimes think of the taxi driver who, in response to a friend of mine complaining about the state of the world, sighed and said โ€œThing is, mate, 100 years time? All new people.โ€ Looked at him over his shoulder. โ€œAll new people.โ€

Had some lovely photos from people wearing their Michael Fish weather jumpers. But the loveliest of all is this one from the man himself

I don't pretend to know the science behind it, but it's beyond dispute that coffee and tea taste at least 63% better when you're drinking them from your most cherished mug.

My mum made a chocolate fudge cake for my daughterโ€™s birthday. She put all my daughterโ€™s favourite chocolate on top. The cake dipped and the main chocolate sunk. It tasted awesome but gave us Never Ending Story flashbacks!

If you think about it, the very best books are really just extremely long spells that turn you into a different person for the rest of your life

In a carpet shop, the salesman brought out book of samples.
I said โ€œI donโ€™t think any of those will be big enoughโ€.

My daughter bought a new mirror for her student house. I said โ€œthatโ€™s a really nice mirror. I could see myself using thatโ€ I laughed and she just rolled her eyes in disgust.

You have to feel sorry for pregnant elephants. They have a ridiculously long gestation period, but nobody ever talks about the elephant in the womb.
