Wodehouse, Cake, Art, Theatre, Films, Football, and Sumo. What noisy cats are we.
Everyone: Holding the World Cup in a fascist hellhole, it can't get any worse.

Fascist hellhole: Hold my overpriced pisspoor beer.....
News: Every 2026 World Cup match will feature two "hydration breaks," no matter the weather.

Each half will pause for exactly three minutes midway through.

It's a player welfare measure. It also has sporting & commercial implications.

2026 World Cup to feature three-minute hydration breaks in every half throughout tournament
Every game will pause for three minutes in the middle of each half, which will essentially split the match into quarters.

Well. Looks like London’s new Tolkien theme park is going to be this year’s Glasgow Wonkaland.

Always look forward to reading my copy of #AChristmasCarol that i found in a charity shop a few years ago (although still pretty pricey if i recall correctly!). From the 1930s i think with wonderful illustrations by Gilbert Wilkinson.

Being a British parent is so weird bc you're actually worried about paying the sky high rent/mortgage & getting GP appointments but the entire press keeps telling you you're worried there's a trans person or immigrant nearby & the vat on Eton means there'll only be two skiing holidays this year

Martin Parr has died & this grimmest gloomiest greyest, Sundayest of Sundays is the perfect day to watch Signs of the Times.
All four extraordinary episodes are full of pathos, beauty & humour, life & love stories told through relationships with interiors & objects

Signs of the Times - That Little Bit Different
Terry and Sue quite like Austrian blinds but feel they're common. And just why do Ray and Jane change their three-piece suite twice a year? (1992)

Much as i loved our amazing lunch at Skosh (favourite restaurant) on Friday, having a triple decker crisp sandwich for lunch today also has its place 😊

All kinds of lovely for December 😊
Happy Advent to you and your kin! And everyone else's kin too, come to that. As every December so far this decade, I'm going to do an Advent Calendar of beautiful and brilliant carols, with each day's added to a YouTube playlist and also to the ongoing Spotify one, now in its sixth(!) year.

Ignorance does indeed seem to be bliss for these fucking idiots.

It means only other people will die, of course.

Some lively contenders for the worst newish Christmas perfume/aftershave ad but the ongoing Johnny Depp Sauvages/Sausages nonsense is probably leading.
