Guest Diary

Town won then

I dreamed last night that loads of YouTube videos appeared with dead people passing on messages to their loved ones from heaven. Sadly my dog awoke me to tell me he badly needed a wee so I don't know how it ends. There's a film script in there somewhere.

The rat saga is finally over. Sadly, it did not end well. RIP.

The 'makes 43 litres' tub of Bisto has to go down as one of my more esoteric lockdown purchases. My 1980s repro gravy tin is becoming an antique in its own right.

I thought it was more a fashion students design for a new prisoners uniform outfit

If it stays fine plan to get some first early Maris Bard tates in the ground tomorrow.Just gotta check the soil temp first.

Irene says good night. Your lads were well at it today.

Long may you continue it. Good luck today

I was musing about the Gasheads this morning and remembered I wrote a piece about Bristol Rovers for CA in 2004 which has some entertaining history stuff. Please can someone going tomorrow let me know if they still sing Goodnight Irene.

Good old Stan, bless him

I suggest that he uses Bob Mortimer as his lawyer. Worked for Jarvis.

Who is that woman sitting on you?

The vinyl lp of The Colour of Spring by Talk Talk

'Come gentle spring, come at winter's end.'

Released 40 years ago today.

Utterly stupendous Simon Armitage pome about our beloved Grimsby folk

Philanthrapreneur Ltd
Only Sarah bloody Ferguson could come up with such a shit grifter company name.

@milesmoss.bsky.social they filmed Small Prophets in Urmston you know.

I think she is a curious yet engaging mixture of21st century business babble and and endearing football fan

Danny Thompson - he was everywhere that was good.

Your Uncle Mick once gave me advice. He said Donk, don't bother looking at the mantle piece when you're poking the fire. I feel I ought to pass this on to you.

I see a lot of younger people wearing what they apparently call chore jackets as fashion ware. Are donkey jackets back in as well?

Serviced? Serviced! You old dog Sam

Wife just set out for a charity shop trawl wearing my Vive le revoluçion Newell T shirt. Luckily it is raining so her coat conceals it. She, er, "likes it".

My rule of thumb in the very early 70s was if it was published by Picador I read it. Ditto Charisma and Island.

Yes it is. Trapped in a match day kids birthday tea for the foreseeable

What's for tea? Hot cross buns and jelly. Is this lucky food?

I suspect they were trying to download the movie on a dial-up. Swear I heard a modem....

Went to the local fenland mini theatre to watch an afternoon film. Full of old people when we got there, many of whom on their second glass of wine. Pandemonium as they announce the server down and no film. we got the hell out of there. FAST.

Enjoyed the music accompanying Small Prophets so listened to the lady's most recent album. I like folk, and folk has evolved in some nice ways. But doom folk is too slow, too samey, too portentous for me. Shame.

Small Prophets is a slice of TV heaven
