@warringtonruncorn.com any chance the sold out new t-shirts will be restocked in time for Christmas? Or my birthday which is annoyingly close to Christmas?
Apologies for such a self centred request but I am, apparently, impossible to buy for.

At Manchester Poly in 1988 legend had it that Tanita Tikaram had been offered a place but dropped out to pursue music career. Since I got in through clearing I like to think I owe my place to her.

I know everyone’s rightly wild about The Traitors but please let’s not ignore the fact that a mature student on University Challenge answered one question….
‘Toxteth O’Grady.’

Really enjoyed @benjaminmyers76.bsky.social Jesus Christ Kinski - KK a touchstone for film geeks growing up in the Channel 4/Moviedrome era (‘wait, Nosferatu is in The Big Silence?’). Sections where The Writer becomes obsessed by his subject as compelling as the depiction of onstage mania. #BookSky

The way Mark Radcliffe says ‘celebrating Half A Century of Horses’ on the @bbc6music.bsky.social Patti Smith trailer makes it sound like a corporate video Alan Partridge did for a North Norfolk equestrian centre.

Why is David Lammy using phrases like ‘back where he belongs?’ I’m glad Lebatu was arrested, charged, sentenced, jailed and deported because that’s the correct due process. Don’t need this dog whistle bollocks.

To say I didn’t much enjoy the new Frankenstein would be an understatement, something of which the film itself is never guilty.

Years ago I was about to get into a barny on Twitter and I looked at the guy’s profile and it read:
‘Loves: family, friends, good times.
‘Hates: mixed race couples in adverts.’
That was it.
Nothing else.
So I didn’t engage in debate as he was clearly a moron.
Morons like him now polling at 27%.

Jack Whitehall is the lead in a glossy euro thriller series on Amazon. Top billed over David Duchovny.

I’m working backstage at a Guns N’ Roses gig and one of the band heard I have a motorbike so now insists I give him a ride home.

I finished this over the weekend. It’s brilliantly written but hard to recommend unreservedly as it’s such a deep dive into grief and loss. #bookSky
