Don't sleep on the Norwegians: they make some of the best comedy in the world.
That they do so much of it *in English* is just an amazing global public service to make their grade-A roasts available to people outside the Scandinvo-sphere.
Another don't-miss example in the first comment.
The late night inspection and “lad” in question was Bear 😊 He makes the Muttley sounds. Bear was retracing where the fox had been. Sorry I should have been clearer. Here’s pic of Lad Sara typed in “whimsical” ChatGPT

A wider historical perspective is required.

We're also marking the launch of Radical Rural, a gallery trail championing many more voices who champion and care for rural England today. From summoning the folk spirits of England's woods and tors, to meticulously mapping the data of who really owns England.

Really stark data from @sheltercharity.bsky.social showing how women carry the burden of the rental crisis.
Women make up ~60% of adults in homeless temporary accommodation, and single mums make up a third of all people in temporary accommodation, though they only make up ~2% of the UK population.

Xmas is very much ghost story season here at Chez Lez and we're really enjoying Simon Stanhope's Bitesized Audio channel of Victorian & Edwardian mystery, ghost & detective tales. Lots of the usual suspects: E. Nesbit, E. Gaskell, Blackwood, MR James but lots of others too.
