Sky fibre gigabit finally active after a 5 month delay. 320gb upload speed seems unacceptable though. I’d expect some drop off but that’s absolutely miles off. Anyone else had similar experience?

Vote Count Binface and I will take over Turnberry and the Trump International Golf Course in Aberdeen, and turn them from a hellhole into a sanctuary for asylum seekers from across the world.

Who hasn’t been innocently hanging out at the inauguration of a man dubbed by people in his own party as the next Hitler and accidentally performed a Nazi salute that could only be more blatant if it was accompanied by a tiny finger moustache?

Like a pathetic exiled kinglet, turfed off his throne and lingering at the fringes of a foreign warlord’s court to provide a fig leaf for his aggression in return for victuals, wine and a warm cloak.

Congrats. New brand ID looks great. Much more modern and forward looking. Good use of glass icon.

This Christmas ad for The Entertainer is absolutely sublime! Great Baxter Dury cover of Roxette too.

It’s rechargeable so hundreds of uses. Will try with a London Black when cans available.

Guinness say β€œno” but then of course they would. I tried it with a Pilsner Urquell and was a foamy mess.

The album is incredible. I was lucky enough to see it performed live in 2014 by the β€œGene Clark No Other Band” at the @endoftheroadfestival . Just amazing.

Why is Spotify so bad at highlighting new music releases? All I really want is a new releases section that features the new albums of that week.

I’m consistently impressed by the performance of my Meater Plus food thermometer. Ribeye steak is bang on.

Louis Theroux: Extreme Love - Series 1: 1. Autism First broadcast in 2012, Louis visits a school for autistic children in New Jersey.

I’m often asked what it’s like to work at a school for (mostly) autistic children and it’s difficult to explain. This Louis Theroux documentary does a bloody good job of it though.
