Murdered simply because they were Palestinian and because they know they will not be censured, not by anyone. This is 'normal', this is just the way it is. These people are the personification of evil.

Fantastic, I'll do that Ken, he's one of the few Americans I would want to hear talking to me, the main one, who I miss so very much still, being Sagan.

Christ yes, we all knew it was Vietnam, the Korea thing never fooled anyone. Python is my baseline, I was there at the start.

She's lovely, a real person, not an Instagram person, she's normal and funny and human and beautiful. The boy couldn't do any better.

Exactly. You get one shot, please don't go getting a fast car and a facelift in your fifties. It makes you look like a creep (cos you are)

I know, it's beautiful to watch, and there is no jealousy, no envy, no hankering, life moves on, you can't go back, it's for the youth to enjoy.

I will! This beer is marvelous, it hits the spots you didn't even know you had. I'll go home and do me and Alf a lovely warming macaroni cheese (Tash in London, Joe in Thailand), watch a film and fall into bed early. It'll be lovely.

Well, yes, it is. Tash is off in London so I had a good long walk to the Shoes and I am now drinking magnificent strong beer to recover. I shall have a few more then go home, cook tea, watch a film, get an early night and start work again at seven. And I shall enjoy every single minute of it.

Well, now here's a thing, they've just put a barrel of Grain Lignum Vitae on, 6.5% of IPA magnificence. On a Sunday afternoon. What's a man to do? I should say no... But thank you Jules, that will do extremely nicely.
