If you're wondering about my fixations over the last year, btw, they were:
- Cartoons from 40 years ago
- Sci fi from 50 years ago
- All 90s Star Trek
- WH40K as it was in 2002
- Mtg as it was in 2002
- D&D as it was in 2002
- Shitty 80s hard rock
- Swedish bands that sound like shitty 80s hard rock

Well, if Labour's delivering on that promise then I guess they have nothing to worry about, right? Now, time to check the polls and take a biiiiig sip of water...

I looked it up. Knoydart has a population of 157. About 0.8 people per square mile, which says a lot about how poor Rowling's reputation is. It's like being unpopular on the moon.

I think I'd say one of the post-war Labour PMs, maybe. But I definitely feel confident saying we haven't had a good one within my lifetime.
