My friend Paul pointed me towards the song via @23daves.bsky.social blog. I doubt he’s heard it. Strangely I could’ve asked Drummond directly in 2021 when he was flogging books out of a barbershop in Stoke Newington.

Myself & the other comedians who did the Riyadh Comedy Festival are donating our fees to help get influencers under attack in Dubai back home to their influencer houses. I am sponsoring Braevyn McTaigg from Orlando, FL. 🫡🇺🇸🏝️

Everyone I know in Cardiff went to see David Byrne tonight. I presume his show at the Castle in July will be empty.

I get what you mean. Humourless (despite Pacino) and too long. It’s like Michael Mann wrote a crime drama and then someone said “There’s no women in it” so he shoehorned 3 unnecessary relationship storylines into it.

Now THIS is lazy. When you're writing a Steven Seagal film and can't come up with the name for a seedy bar so you just name it "Seedy Bar."

Bought this LP for a quid yesterday.

Telly speaking to the record company.
"Ok guys, I'm thinking "romance" for this. Front cover? The evil Captain Kazar from Horror Express wielding a revolver and...um...for the back, that great shot of me bound half naked and injured from A Town Called Bastard."

Yes, it says “Cardiff, England” on this “souvenir” ticket, but “Cardiff did you Dario’s beard attached to his chest hair if he doesn’t trim it?”
