Loves the country so much that he's left it. Has clearly never used a tube train or bus if he thinks you can't have a phone out in London. Appears to be correct about not being clever.

urgently need you guys to know that this French politician below 1) didn't know he'd been appointed as a minister until he saw it on TV 2) reacted by going: "bah pfff voilà"

Le nouveau ministre de la Ruralité, Michel Fournier, raconte avoir appris sa nomination à la télé

Le plus vieux ministre nommé sous la Ve République précise avoir discuté avec le Premier ministre «deux jours avant», sans que rien ne soit arrêté. «Comment j’ai réagi ? Bah pfff voilà», résume-t-il.

My latest obsession is morning-related tunes. Honestly - I'm not sure why 🤷‍♂️.
But I am sure this is lovely:

If I could be bothered - Gregory Isaacs would be my style icon.

Lovely. I always appreciate style on others - though I confess I can never be bothered to sort any out for myself (classic middle-aged man business). Hope you have a lovely time at the party.

There are way too many songs in this category. I can't listen to them either

I'm not sure Lou Reed should have been left in charge of any tots in 1972. Or ever, really.

Another great tune I didn't know before today. This one, paired with a good strong cup of coffee, will definitely get me going in the mornings. And on the right tip too! <3

Nyabinghi drumming, deep bass and unexpected noises in the mix. Some people like to start the day with marijuana - and I feel like Hugh Mundell may have been one of those people.
