Not. Just thickism.

Smirky McSmirkface’s reference to the number 15 seems to imply it is an existin’ rule but only the finin’ element is new. The only reference I can find to the number 15 in existin’ rules is below: […]

They have recently become turquoise again, although they now appear to be printed on toilet paper.

Burton’s Potato Puffs. Ready salted, red packet, 1967. I was 5.

Sigh.

What a lovely couple.

JUST READ – Craig Brown’s 1,2,3,4 The Beatles in Time was hugely enjoyable, his puncturing of Yoko Ono’s self-important 60s pseudery being especially amusing.

CURRENTLY READING – James Rebanks’s English Pasto […]

Cripes, I got 8 in the top 20, but thought I ought to listen to a couple more that fellow AWers have raved about. A G*** C***** E***? Oh dear me no, but do I like both of the Taylor Swift albums released this year […]

1. After 2 to 3 years of suffering chronic lack of mobility I finally had a hip replacement this year. The first 8 weeks were awful, but I can now see that my surgeon was right when he said it would change my life […]

Suddenly there is something to look forward to in 2021. Bring it on.

It’s been a year for feel-good telly.
The Chase
The Repair Shop
Richard Osman’s House of Games
And any part of Gardener’s World that contains Monty Don. The perfect Friday antidote to a stressful week at wo […]

McCartney does have something of the knight about him.

Me too Steve. I had my hip replaced at the beginning of October and had self-isolated for 2 weeks before that. I’ve hardly been out of the house since then apart from short walks to get the strength back in my h […]

Agreed. Given that this was billed by the Beeb as a world exclusive, surely it wasn’t beyond their editorial standards to find an interviewer who could have come up with something a little more incisive to d […]

Whole Lotta Minge
You Give Minge a Bad Name

Saw her play live once; she was stupendously good.

It’s been a while.
