It's pissing it down with rain, but there's a big fuck off cat with a far out hat at the door offering to keep me entertained. You reckon I should take a punt?

Volunteered myself for double dad taxi duties, so that's me sat in a car park for the next hour and a half.

The Pretenders' 2000 Miles has just been on the radio. Chrissie Hynde's exclamation that "It's very far" is probably somewhat surplus to requirements, isn't it?

The same account has reposted something from last night, and followed and unfollowed me three times now. They won't be doing it any more.

I quite miss the early days of the UK adopting Black Friday and hearing tales of midnight rucks in Tesco with people scrapping over consumer electronics made by brands not renowned for making that particular product. Polaroid TVs were a fixture.

Forgot to put the bin out last night lads. 😬

*Not having a pop at anyone's national cuisine, just curious*

Are marshmallow topped sweet potatoes are served as a side dish or as a dessert with a Thanksgiving dinner?

I remain Grim in Grimsby.
Sleepless in Seattle.

Clueless in Cambridge.

Harmless in Harwich.

Peerless in Paris.

Topless in Torquay.

1) I don't give a shit that Farage was a racist wanker as a kid, he's a racist wanker NOW and that is enough.

2) I was at boarding schools in the 80s. I was on the receiving end of daily racist abuse. Psychological, physical, and sexual abuse too.

Let's stop pretending Farage is an outlier.

I'd have thought that the cycle to work scheme had a better chance of doing something about the obesity crisis than an extra 5p on the price of a milkshake, but what do I know?

Why are they advertising Audible adaptation of Harry Potter on podcasts aimed at adults? Transphobic author aside, they're children's books.

My wife is out tonight so I'm treating myself to a little princess pamper.

How do you know if somebody is a vegan?

Don't worry, his colleague will ask him whether he misses cheese, approximately every 15 minutes.

I've just watched A Nightmare on Elm Street with my youngest. I'd forgotten how much the last twenty minutes or so have in common with Home Alone.

Bastard fucking cars, man. Ugh.

I could really have done without the car's exhaust starting to make ominous rattling noises.
