The moustachioed member of Brotherhood of Man looked so much like the man who cut our hair in the 1970s that my brother and I thought it was him. True story #totp

Watched Stand By Me. Again. Cried. Again. Like the first time I saw it at Liverpool Odeon in 1987. Same cinema I saw The Princess Bride almost a year later.

Tourism? Who needs it?
NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.

The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.

Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

🚨THEY. WANT. YOUR. DNA.🚨

Good Morning Captain by Slint. The only time a song has ever given me the same a visceral reaction as a good ghost story or horror film. Profundly unsettling and the scream of 'I Miss You' at the end is pure nightmare fuel
Q3, #HorrorWritersChat.

Us writers are weird creatures. We can't help but shake and quake over a perfect line, but all the senses will get you, if you're open to it.
And music is a story in the ears. Just like a perfume is a story for the nose.
But can you translate it into writing? Do you?

Have just listened to The Wedding Present's Maxi EP. Now in their 40th year and 30 years after Mini they continue to push all my buttons. Latest lineup on the current tour is the best I've seen them. Maxi is the first recorded output from that iteration. It's fucking great. The boy Gedge, etc.

My entire political outlook now is the Conservatives have fucked it, Labour have fucked it so why not give someone else the opportunity to fuck it. Not them obviously.

I can’t stand cricket. Don’t see the point. But the people who do like cricket only ever seem to be disappointed by cricket.
I can’t think of another sport where constant disappointment seems to be hard-wired in on an existential level
