Carnivore. Worships at the altar of Pinot Noir. Thinks anybody using the word 'pop' should be beaten to death with a doilie. Slovenly housekeeping a speciality. Can't cook Yorkshire Puddings.
The Kibble Palace in Glasgow's west end. Originally designed for John Kibble by architects James Boucher and James Cousland for his home at Coulport on Loch Long in the 1860s, the components were cast by Walter Macfarlane at his Saracen Foundry in Possilpark.

Give her what she really wants for Valentine’s Day: A bookshelf with a rolling ladder, a vintage bottle of Château Margaux, a basket of fresh pastries, and a candlelight meal where she can dine on the hearts of all who've wronged her.

Must be great being a billionaire. They all seem so happy and fulfilled. Whenever I see a billionaire in the news I definitely see someone skipping happily through life with a song in their heart, strewing roses from their hatband.

I will be watching the Winter 'Lympics. If only to remind myself of what a blue sky looks like.

I'm no criminal mastermind but, if I wanted to shoplift something and then slip quietly into the crowd without detection, I probably wouldn't pick '29 things with bells on'

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you’re under absolutely no obligation to justify yourself to anyone if you choose to spend the entire weekend drinking tea, reading books, and eating a scandalous amount of croissants.

I think I might take one of these "under 20 minutes" AI skills courses the UK Govt. seems very keen on everyone doing and live-post it here... Maybe we can all learn something together! The press release sends me to aiskillshub.org.uk/aiskillsboost/ - let's go and see!

You refer to eating an entire bag of crisps in one sitting as “mildly concerning”.
I refer to it as “seeing things through” and “not being a quitter”.
Everything is all about perspective.

The best way of describing someone who’s all talk and no action that I’ve ever heard in the UK, by far, is “they’re all wardrobe and no Narnia.”

"Autistic people are bottom up thinkers"
I've seen a lot of people saying this recently, and I think what this actually means is getting lost in translation.
Mainly because most explanations say something like "autistic people need all the details about something before they can understand it."

And thus, the entire system of measurements is destroyed. There is no area the size of Wales. Nothing is as long as a blue whale, or a double-decker bus, or a football field; nothing is as tall as a giraffe.
A large boulder is, however, the size of a small boulder.

First superb conspiracy theory of 2026 overheard in the street! I love this. I feel it sets the tone for a superb year:
“Wales is fake.”
