We’re all now getting our news from people who share our prejudices instead of from sources we often disagree with. And it’s driving us apart. All of us moving further and further into our opposing corners and never having our beliefs or opinions challenged.

Dear film folk, if you’re trying to get my wife to watch your film, it turns out the phrase ‘robot rebellion’ isn’t working for you.

This is round the corner from me

Just booked for the Colosseum in Rome. Confirmation email says I can’t take ‘weapons’. Can’t take weapons to the Colosseum?! Then I’m gonna lose, aren’t I?

I’m finding it increasingly difficult to differentiate between Martin Lewis and Jimmy Carr. Thoughts?

Once again, my Menus That Made History co-written with @vincentfranklin.bsky.social is back in its bizarrely inappropriate position as 1 in Honeymoon Travel Guides on Amazon. Thanks to all honeymooners for keeping us at top spot.
