Got to feel sorry for the honest players left out of the squad to let the cheats back in, though. Peter Handscomb, averaging 48, strike rate 98, maiden ODI hundred in India recently – he’s probably wondering if he […]

The first half of the song – okay, maybe he’s watching them from across a club. But he knows where the guy lives, what time they wake up, and the contents or lack thereof of his kitchen cupboards. It’s […]

I like that. “You can have anything I own / any one thing / take your pick / not the house / anything but the house / or the car / anything I own, subject to conditions”

yeah but it goes boom boom… boom boom…boom boom… boom boom…

So the line would be more accurate if it was ‘My drum beats like a heart’

The only scenario I can think they’re looking at is letting Johnson takes us out of Europe, then implode, taking the Tories with him, so Labour wins the next GM simply by standing by and blaming everyone else, […]

Struggling funeral directors. Desperately want bodies, but don’t think they’re sexy. Well, you’d hope not anyway.

This is troubling indeed.

Want body + think sexy = let me know
Want body =/- think sexy = let me know
therefore
Want body = think sexy

With his capped sleeve T and Suzi Quattro hair Ronson looks like he turned up for an entirely different gig. You’d think he’d be used to raiding the dressing up box before he went on

Not that huge, actually, as Seasick Steve demonstrates here http://handmademusicclubhouse.com/xn/detail/4519676:Photo:290945

I do remember that kidney beans, bread and a cup of tea set me back the equivalent of […]

Rat, in Cambodia. It’s okay, tastes a bit like guinea pig.
Locust, in Thailand: The Whitebait of The Fields! Is how it’s never been advertised.
Wot and Injera, Ethiopia; like someone shat on carpet […]

Very nicely summarised Mr Boy. Unlike No Direction Home or the Harrison thing, this isn’t documentary. It’s thin wild mercury bobness. It doesn’t so much Shine a Light as Bobfuscate. I liked it a lot.

I also […]

Picked up new specs from Boots. I had no idea how bad my eyes have become. Suddenly the world is is clearer, brighter place. Or maybe it’s just that the sun just came out.

Took some wrongly-delivered shower […]

This is the thing. Because Johnson is entirely without principle and utterly self-serving, there’s absolutely no guarantee he’ll do anything he commits to. This is how bad things have become – it’s only the […]

Has he died?

“Next week, Geoff celebrates the 650th anniversary of the first Tales with a visit to an old friend, The Wife of Step-in Bath”

“Coming up later, Geoff recounts the story of the 7,652nd pilgrim, whose journey to Canterbury takes a strange turn during a contraflow between Junctions 7 and 8 just west of Rochester, in The Call Centre Deputy […]

Wishing Chaucer wasn’t dead is asking a lot of him… he’d be 676 next birthday.

Radiohead have now nicked this back from the thieves and made it available. Dive in with a clear conscience https://radiohead.bandcamp.com

We like our our liars, cheats and thugs in parliament rather than on the cricket pitch

Short answer, yes, we have all gone mad.

Slightly longer answer, we decided a few years ago that the old system of government we had – two very similar parties hugging the middle grown and each preventing the […]
