I didn't watch it until about 10 years ago. Absolutely love it now and The Return was magnificent but I was too busy going out and getting up to no good when it was on the first time.

What's Lord Mandelson if not a crank and weirdo? And as for Wes Streeting...

The Greens escape stigma because people are desperate for a progressive left wing party and they're the best (most organised) we're likely to get.

The feedback has been very positive so far. Enough to allay any concerns

I was looking forward to this until I remembered how underwhelmed I was by Inherent Vice. That's going to be a problem isn't it?

Bad hair that desperately needs a cut always manages to look quite cool a few days before a trip to the barbers. The hairs are working together and saying: "Please don't chop us. We'll try harder".

Starmer to end asylum β€˜golden ticket’ of resettlement and family reunion rights People granted asylum will have to earn right to invite family in plan charities say is β€˜straight from populist playbook’

Starmer is an absolute shit for playing along with this "golden ticket" nonsense. I have in-laws who've turned into full blown xenophobes, radicalised by the Daily Mail, and there's no hope for them if nobody in authority is telling them any different. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Yeah, and for lots of people in recovery it's the slipperiest and most triggering month by far. Come Jan 1st you can usually breathe a sign of relief until pint glasses start glistening in the sun again.

GAY closing down by this weekend.

This sucks, and I really do think the straightification of Old Compton Street will get so much worse without GAY anchoring the area...

takeaway curry with Rod Stewart but he β€˜stays in the car’. You go and get it but pass it through the window before getting in - bzzzz; window down; hand comes out - *croak* β€˜lahverhly’ *croak* but some of the orange grease has β€˜gone through the bag’. .

β€œRighteous and exhaustive account of one of the biggest bands of all time. If oral histories are generally more about sculpting than writing, then PINK FLOYD SHINE ON is the Michelangelo’s David of the genre ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

And where's Mike Godwin when you need him? I'm guessing he packed up and went home a long time ago.
