Fuck off, The Grauniad.

He is apparently 22 years old. He must have had a hard life.

Lhude sing cuccu

That's a shame, my sister and I were thinking of seeing it.
Can you also go and see the Only Fools And Horses one so we know whether to see it when it goes on tour pls

Happy yesterbirth Daren.

Seeing Bagpuss at an exhibition at the Museum of Childhood in east London in 2016 is the closest I have ever come to a religious experience.

The Graviday has been released.

On the other hand, it doesn't show Twoflower with four eyes.

It's about time this happened.

Tested negative today, and feel more or less fine (just a bit tired), so I think that's that. The immersion heater for the hot water tank switched itself off three times (meaning a shockingly cold shower after switch-off #2), and the washing machine blew up for good measure, so it's been a funny day...

The agency's put off the plumbing work in here till next Tuesday, and I've been able to order a food delivery for tomorrow (there's almost nothing left as I was running the fridge down so I could switch it off in my absence), so that's about as much as I could hope for in the circumstances.

I feel pretty much OK at the moment, just mild cold symptoms. I only bothered testing because my sister tested positive this morning (with worse symptoms), and I saw her on Friday. The two friends we also saw on Friday (one of whom spent a long time in here with us as he was helping me measure the l...

I have covid for what might actually be the first time ever. Since I'd been planning on going back to parents for a few weeks in order to avoid mans coming to replace the pipework in here on Thursday, this is rather an inconvenience.

Happy Trigday birth

Hairline already receding, excellent

Harold new year to all

Harold birthday Swizpig. You and Richard have Christmas surrounded.

Poor Richard Franklin and his anus eyes

A merry egg to one and all

You might already know of this, Bruce, but Goon Pod: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/goon-pod/id1569929507 could be of interest to your good self? I've heard of it, I think (I believe it's been referred to a few times in the GSPS magazine) but never got round to listening to it, likewise the ...

Approximately half of pre-Christmas is achieved, with the remainder (non-lights decorations for tree, various decorations for house, cards to go up on strings) to be achieved tomorrow. This evening I wrapped all my presents for family, which drove me into my usual state of fury.

O Richard what hast thou done

Oh no, I love the Goons (to the extent that I am a member of the Goon Show Preservation Society, and receive a magazine full of recycled jokes and a small amount of interesting documentary material four times a year). I came to them in about 1991, just after I'd seen Monty Python for the first time,...

There is still time.

Now I have to play Four Swords Adventures, but first I have to remember where I put Four Swords Adventures.

Finally, finally, finally finished Wind Waker, 20 years after the first attempt (which was also the one that got furthest, before this one). Managed to save over my save game file with the new game quest file, but never mind.

Roomba has changed a lot over the years.

No, he's writing it again

Hooray

I always lock the bathroom door, in case Dr Oho appears.

I started watching the snooker at the gym, and there was immediately a medical emergency in the audience and play stopped, so they went back to the studio and there was Shaun Murphy congealed in a chair, peevishness and dyspepsia given almost-human form, so I watched something else instead.

1st of December is the earliest day, when advent calendar starts. For me the Christmas is restricted to listening to carols and possibly eating the occasional mince pie until I go back to parents, usually a week or so before Christmas Day. I try to get all the Christmas purchases sorted out by the e...

Presents so far: volume 2 of huge biography of Henry III, Pikmin 4, second Spiderverse film, medieval ghost story, lapel badge of Boo the ghost from Mario games.

Thank ye all. I have had the usual extended birthday: Ehis visited two weeks ago, I had a party with various friends last weekend, and tomorrow the family descends on my sister's house for fish and chips and probably cake. My dad accidentally told me what my birthday present is yesterday, but I will...

I bet it didn't even have anti-radiation gloves.

Thank you Richard. I am excused words today due to being on leave. Back to work tomorrow, then off for another two weeks, with a third week to follow in December in the run-up to Christmas. I am living the life of Riley by dint of never going on holiday. Today has mostly been spent shopping, but I s...

I don't know, I've never black pudded

I must have told my story before about Buzz Aldrin being friends with someone my dad used to work with, because of some astronomy-related thing, and staying at his house, and my dad's colleague staying with the Aldrins, and so on. It is the best thing.

Having looked into it in more detail, it appears that the distinction wasn't made until the 18th century - the story about the inhabitants of Kent meeting William the Conqueror at Swanscombe and negotiating a settlement is in William Camden's 'Britannia' in the late 16th century, but nothing is said...

Bruce what is difference between Men of Kent and Kentish Men? Men of Kent live east of the Medway, Kentish Men west of it (making me one of the latter). The story is that it relates to the fact that Kent east of the Medway negotiated with William the Conqueror to keep their own customs (gavelkind e...

That's in my neck of the woods - all the little places with the river Cray running through them, up to Crayford (where we lived when I was very very small) where it joins the Darent. Paper mills and gunpowder works were the big local industries back in the day. My uncle (my aunt's husband) who died ...

Watch the animated Fury from the Deep just so you can see everyone with terrifying gibbon arms.

Harkonnen, Harkoffen.

You filthy swine, Homfrus

His brain madness got him banned from Wikipedia years ago. I strongly suspect the BBC is just waiting for him to keel over.

I bet it's that penguin's fault.
