Person 23

CNNRY prints are in the house and currently being lovingly signed by the genius who painted the picture- me.

If you’d like a copy you can order one from my website

Connery by @www.johnbleasdale.com is now available from plumeriapics.co.uk and he’s a genius too.

What jacket to wear - heavy, light, waterproof? A shirt under it? A sweatshirt? March is bad enough for changeable weather without climate change.

There's one, but it's not really his apparently. Gordon Strachan, football manager and legendary Scottish midfielder, was asked:
"Gordon, can we have a quick word from you?", to which he replied "velocity", and walked on. He is a funny man!

A nice goonie is a thing to treasure.

Best bit is Linn Park maybe, that's lovely!

Cathcart is grand, it's relatively cheap still, for the Southside and down-to-earth - though there are more hipsters these days and so you can get nice coffee and vegan pastry and sourdough bread. I wouldn't move unless I have to. Quiet but busy.

Heavy Goblin vibes! I love Spirit Animal by him, it's improbably huge.

"We can always tell" woman fails to identify Chinese Intelligence Asset she married.

In Garnethill, just at the back of that park, I could hear the music from the Art School! Now I'm in Cathcart.

Oh, I used to live there! Not in the park, in a flat at the back of the photo. I don't blame you for not going back, even work that's good is still rubbish.

You either believe in universal human rights, or you don’t.

The ideal is that those who can afford to pay should pay and those who can't shouldn't be denied the pleasure that the better off can access. It doesn't always work like that of course.

Anyone, not just women.

They do not. Nowhere does. This is the big problem with setting abritary limits. Stillbirth may be rare but it happens and it's a tragedy. Making women suffer because it happens after 12 weeks is unbelievably cruel torture.

Most Reform members believe non-white UK citizens born abroad should be forced or encouraged to leave, poll finds Nigel Farage’s recent efforts to woo centre-ground voters may cause tension in party’s right flank, says Hope Not Hate

The term for that is White supremacy and any coverage of Reform that does not include that term is complicit in whitewashing White supremacy. Sometimes things really are that simple.

Except when it isn't, and then it isn't.

This is a habit I should return to.

It's actually a lovely bit of self care to go and browse the cheap CD's and take home a bargain bag of music you'll have for the rest of your life without bothering your bank account too much. I remember buying Scott Walker 1-4 for £20 and spending the most wonderful afternoon listening back to back

It's what I'll do in future, just keep that collapse in mind.
I didn't notice either being out though, not that I ever use Facebook, it disturbs me.

I feel there should be something about keeping the psychopaths in line there too.

Like I know anyone who's interested!

Aye, and Delia Derbyshire didn't write the Doctor Who theme but she owns it! Nice bit of trivia there for when the subject of the Sorry! theme comes up again (which is quite often considering).

Absolutely, and I still keep imagining the Great Crash, when everything online totally disappears and we're in the relative dark again. Then who's laughing? Well, not many people but I'll be sorted for viewing for a solid year or more.

YouTube video by TrouNoir Sorry! (1981) TV show theme tune 10 hour version (very, very sorry)

People misuse YouTube for podcasts and video essays these days when what it was really designed for was stuff like this;

Picking up the ball and running with it, that is. Inspired.

An absolute masterpiece. Ronnie Hazlehurst's finest moment surely, though the musique concrète of Are You Being Served is worthy of laudation. In fact, the man was a genius in his genre.

I've been thinking I should repost things a little more often, especially total winners like this.

I really do prefer physical media but also am seriously running out of space for the things! But it's frustrating that stuff ends streaming and simply isn't available on Blu-ray or even DVD, so you just sit and twiddle your thumbs or you fire up the Pirate Bay. Bottoms was one. Couldn't buy it.

Yep, so they get banned, the insensitive bastards.
