While in primary school, noticing that religious people did NOT practice as they preached. Then in Catholic boarding school, realising that the priests had *no idea* about very basic tenets of their own faith. Sort-of Wizard of Oz feeling about it all.

1. The blackbird in my garden that whistles The Ride of the Valkyries when I go to the shed
2. The lizard(?) I saw in Australia that had 2 heads (or 2 arses, depending how you looked at it)
3. The huge stick insect I saw in Brazil when I walked into the jacks and said who left a stick on the window

They could make it a parody. No-one would know of course.

The debate should be over. No to playing Israel, no White House on St Patrick’s Day. If your answer is some versions of “get real, economy blah blah…”, then ask yourself: what WOULD Israel or the Trump regime have to do before you’d say no?

Oh I’d have said nothing at 99 or 101, but the movements being out hurts my head (I’m an auditor)

Are you sure those figures are all right Gavan? They add up to 101%, and there’s +5 but only -2?

Our friends/neighbours got a new dog and called him Arlo. I was well impressed, and told them so, and played Alice’s Restaurant that evening.

The dog was actually named after The Good Dinosaur…

I think I only know of 2 Enochs, and they both identified as pricks

Well we know what happened Enoch, that’s fucked for years.

Neil, Neil, Neil (*shakes head ruefully). Eyebrow trimming? In this economy? Stop stressing, let it grow. It’s only preparation for what’s ahead. I am now in my “Silverback Gorilla”phase, and when on foreign beaches, am often thought to be wearing a peculiar jumper. Not so.

If the US ends up bombing Iran, again, JUST SO THEIR SAILORS CAN GO HOME TO TAKE A SHIT, we will no longer be living in the universe I was born into. I read The Anomaly, saw The Matrix, and found them far-fetched, at the time.

NOT ANY MORE

WTF has happened to Vinted? Not loading any searches today? How am I supposed to buy a Ruckfield rugby shirt in perfect condition, in my size, for a reasonable price?

Mince pies. I even told our youngest they were made with ‘real’ mince (beef) to turn him off them

Imagine it… fat Jesus, frustrated in his work, maybe the start of some ED issues, grumpy as hell, until he buys the second hand Porsche and a leather jacket

It’s like that time Eng lost to Arg in Twick and a Paddy, beaming, was interviewed on the way out. SkySp asked him why he wasnt upset, did he not support England? He roared laughing “never!” sez he, and then suddenly got serious “well i would if they were playing Tipp”

Maybe it’s good old-fashioned proper AI from Yorkshire? Hand-crafted using IT skills handed down from father to son for generations?
