I placed my onions
on the floor,
under the window
by the door.
The layers of nuance
caught their eyes,
the day I won
The Turner Prize

12 year old daughter told me she has her first boyfriend “accidentally as we don’t really know each other.” I said ‘ha, just like me and your mother.’ No-one laughed. Atmosphere remains frosty at best.

Listening to Agatha Christie’s ABC Murders and The Mysterious Affair at Styles with Peter Dinklage as Poirot and he is absolutely superb. Free on Audible.

On Thanksgiving Day, it’s important that people from all over the world unite and give thanks that we’re not American.

Amazing to think that The Mayflower left Plymouth in England and landed in Plymouth in the US. What are the fucking chances?

Would have been absurd to really suggest this a couple of weeks ago but Slot must be quite close to losing his job now.

Tax ideas for raising revenue

1) Cucurella tax: hair by volume
2) The 6/7 tax: £1 each time someone smirks/grins when aforementioned is uttered
3) Farage tax: £1 every time someone is racist
4) Trump tax: £1 every time someone says something stupid
5) Tony Parsons tax: £1 when someone is a cunt

I've seen some exclusive clips of the final series of Stranger Things. I'm pleased to say they've still got that 80s thing down beautifully.

Really looking forward to Arsenal v Bayern later. Probably the best two sides in Europe in the first half of the season.

The most outrageous aspect of the 6,7 craze is that its inspiration isn’t the Pixies’ ‘This Monkey’s Gone to Heaven.’

One of our generation’s greatest achievements is to apply anything we disagree with to Orwell’s 1984.

Lank Frampard’s Coventry now with a ten point gap looking odds on for a return to the Premier League. After that it’s anyone’s guess with only 9 points separating the next 16 teams.
