Folk shuffling around food banks in tears, Government telling us to tighten our belts, and we still have this load of old fucking bollocks going on.

“Well, it was this way,” returned Mr. Enfield: “I was coming home from some place at the end of the world, about three o’clock of a black winter morning ..."

Mr Enfield leads us on the dark journey that we know as The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by R. L. Stevenson.

Universes collapsing into one 🫨
Watching Father Ted’s a Christmassy Ted and remembered this nugget of pop trivia, the priest with the most boring voice Father Fitzgerald (Sean Barrett) in Ireland's largest lingeree section was the cover star of The Smith's single "How Soon is Now" a still from the 1958 film "Dunkirk".

I've seen EK Thistle play today's opponents twice before; a 6-1 victory & a 1-7 defeat. Not an easy one to predict, 0-0 seems a likely bet 🤔

New map produced by RTVE, Spanish national TV, of the 6000 mass graves in Spain. In the last 25 years some 17,000 bodies of men, women and children have been exhumed out of the ~120,000 dumped in mass unmarked graves by the Franco regime.

Actually Frankenstein is the name of the doctor. The monster is called "allegory for the emergent industrial working class as a reservoir of latent revolutionary violence"

¡Basta! No permitiré que os interpongáis en mi camino. ¡Me voy a leer "Frankenstein, o El moderno Prometeo" en su versión de 1818!

Need bring dead, wounded and prisoners back into football stats. Also, bet your man Whytfeild there wasn’t doing triple rolls on the ground, clutching his face, waving an imaginary card at the ref.
Border wars: a football match in 1599 between men of Bewcastle, England, and Armstrongs of Whithaugh, Scotland, was followed by ‘drynkyng hard’. Final score was two dead, 30 taken prisoner ‘and many sore hurt, especially John Whytfeild, whose bowells came out, but are sowed up againe’.

'It is a most noble ruin, of immense size, and full of beautiful and romantic bits; there is a legend that a white lady is seen in one of the windows.'

Mina Harker describes the Whitby Abbey in her diary in Bram Stoker's Dracula.
