Only problem being that Bernard Manning never appeared on the BBC, Nige. He was on Parkinson once where he was questioned about the overt racism in his act, though.

This has been keeping me happy.

Well some of her does.

Ordered.

Last Sunday’s poignant interview with the now-late Robin Smith.

A friend of mine knew him well back in the day and says he’d not been a good place for a long time, unfortunately. Reading the interview, it didn’t really sound like he was on the mend. Very sad.

Robin Smith: England batting great dies aged 62 Robin Smith, renowned for his ability against pace bowling, had spoken openly about his battle with depression and alcoholism during first Ashes Test in Australia

Robin Smith has gone. A Hampshire legend. Rest well, Judgie.

The Milky Bar Lid knows just how bad this is and there’s nothing he can do about it. She’s completely off her rocker.

Saying racist things doesn’t make you racist, insist racists Racists have claimed that making unashamedly racist statements is definitely not racist, and anyone who accuses them of being racist is a racist.

I for one am COMPLETELY dumbfounded as to how Nigel Farage has swivelled from horrific poisonous teenage racist to the open-hearted generous empath that he is today

Good obit of Lady Freud today. The final couple of paragraphs are a joy. @jodb.bsky.social will approve.

A great life, ended too soon.

Got some of this to see what it's like.

Cloudflare ia having some issues, taking down lots of websites and services, including X (yay) and Bellingcat (boo).

I fear there’s no easy solution. Classic damned if you do / damned if you don’t scenario. My advice would to be to put the PhD on hold if possible and reevaluate in a year or so.

T’other place has come to a grinding halt. Elon needs to put 50p in the meter.

Groovy!

Donald “Buck Dharma” Roeser is 78 today. Happy birthday to the nicest guy in rock who was always so happy when he met up with me and my mate Andy.

Blimey. Quality syrup. #WigOfTheWeek

Ah, the fantasy economics of the Gap-Toothed Tit Wizard. Such fun.
