It’s been said that I like the sound of my own voice, but this isnae actually true. Hence me taking a while to plug this episode of Into The Noise podcast. If interested to hear me flap my gums about my musical adventures then tune in here: shows.acast.com/into-the-noise

another favourite scientific headline, following confirmation of Einstein's general theory of relativity by observations of the 1919 solar eclipse. "Stars not where they seemed or were calculated to be, but nobody need worry" is a beautiful sentiment. i would have that on a t-shirt

Shrove Tuesday isn’t about pancakes, it’s commemorating the day that Jesus was impregnated with the chocolate egg that he will lay on Easter Day

Disembark at Lille. You will be met on the platform by a man in a Tyrolean hunting jacket. Tell him only, "the mellow ouzel fluted in the elm," and no more. He will reply, "full thorly threpen throstills in the bankes," and conduct you to an estaminet where you are to await further instructions.

There are too many nonmusicians these days, everyone should go to the conservatoire or get a PhD before they release anything just to prove they can.

I wish I had a button that would kick people like this in the arse whenever I pressed it. I’d be like one of those experimental rats, they’d find my starved body with a bony finger still on the button
I’m sure a Reform government will be very supportive of minority groups. Definitely their brand. You’re like the pro-Palestinian segment of the US electorate who couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Kamala so instead ended up with Trump. So good luck chasing your unicorns of perfection

I recognise that having a famous sex pest called John Woodcock makes international observers think the UK is just taking piss but he is real and unfortunately from his position in the house of lords can hurt us
wait a sec, that's john woodcock! a man who resigned from the labour party right as he was being investigated for sexual harrassment, allowing him to claim it was for principled reasons of not liking corbyn. who was then given a peerage by boris johnson for being sufficiently right wing.
Yes, what if we moved the goalposts again so that this abysmal piece of shit, this walking affront to the democratic process, could just jail anyone he wants rid of? Much to think about
