Emperor Caligula's brief tyrannical reign 37-41 AD severely destabilized Rome, he emptied the Treasury, his megalomania, corruption,perversions, humiliation of Senators and demands to be worshipped like a God made him deeply unpopular among the people.

The beginning of the fall of an Empire.

Please 🙏 my US followers share this 👇 and show the truth on London, my birth and home city.
London is safe and successfully multicultural which threatens all Trump stands for.
Murder rates in comparable US cities.

Look at London?

Anyone who spouts Trumps lies is a traitor.

So this is what our renationalised railways will look like. Apart from the yellow nose cone (not required by Standards or necessary) it’s not too bad. Though all this red, white & blue is a bit tedious. Main thing is the BR double arrow has been left as the design classic it is. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Two books I'm currently enjoying. One by a legendary songbird, star of stage and screen. And Petula's is quite good too. @garyjamesactor.bsky.social

Unlike needy loser Donald Trump, Barack Obama got his Peace Prize from the Nobel Committee, not a vending machine.

Over the moon with this unique and rare original sign - it’ll look lovely in either the utility room or my ground floor bog.

But can you guess where it lived in its working life since the 1950s, pointing people the right way?

Shocked to see this in @countrylifemag.bsky.social magazine. How on earth could something so fundamental to my home town be ‘up for sale’? The Common??

What!?!?!?

When I have food that starts looking like this, I throw it out.

I suggest the United States does the same.

I bought a delightful vintage LT railway sign this morning, & in the dealer’s showroom shelves I noticed 2 amazing original #drwho costume heads - a Sea Devil & a Sontaran.

I almost had to hide behind the nearest sofa! 🫣

This is getting ridiculous; what on earth would I want to review my weekly shopping for?

The day it flies off the shelf dressed as an ancient Egyptian & does a sand dance just for me is the day I might consider a critique.

Until then my sausages will have to remain anonymous.

Good afternoon💅🏼

Reform is reporting £331 million in savings across the councils it runs, but Private Eye’s Rotten Boroughs writer Saba Salman says the claims are complete guff.

Watch the full episode of Page 94, the Private Eye podcast, on YouTube.

Bugger up the infotainment system on every car I have ever owned that I’ve tried to run it on.

You’re welcome.

I’ve just eaten a Clementine.

That’s my Yule done & dusted.

Although I might have a Brazil nut & a fig at some point.

My mum used to buy dried figs this time of year.

Half a packet of them & you’re on the bog for the rest of the evening.

Xmas was tough back in my day. 💅🏼

When is someone going to tell film/advert makers that foam looks nothing like snow.

It’s foam.

Ooh look, it’s foaming.

Blimey! These stills are from a BBC documentary about office Christmas parties in 1970.

The bloke in the first pic is just 26yrs old!!!

The 2nd bloke is - and you won’t believe it - 38!!!! (And also a vampire by the look of it) 🧛🏽‍♂️

Times were hard then 🫣
