The Od Man of Huy has surpassed himself with this review. Quite magnificent, and very well played.

Bob Cort RIP
Harold and Maude. If he'd retired after that he would still be a legend in my house, but he went on to have a long and distinguished career.

comic genius at fawlty towers
Fawlty Towers has dated a lot, but a lot of it was comic genius. I probably laughed louder on a regular basis watching that show than anything else, and it's still funny just reading the scripts. Here's a snapshot of genius at work.

nme advice re david bowie and his tight pants
From the NME, Feb 10th 1972. If this doesn't make you want to pop out and catch David Bowie, nothing will. Just before he went supernova, and probably at the Toby Jug, not The Fox. 'Gaze at his skin tight pants'. A throwback to Epstein seeing The Beatles at The Cavern? (or Leggy Mountbatten and The Rutles). Small venues and interesting acts - l'm all for them (as well as tight pants).

reform using the donald trump fascist playbook
Let's be clear here. Reform asked if a Reform MP (Sarah Pochin) could come to debate and Bangor University said no. A deliberate ploy to stoke up outrage and issue the type of threats any Fascist government would be proud of. Never vote Reform, who are without any shred of doubt racist, transphobic and homophobic.

when queen were great - the 'now l'm here' adverts
I saw Queen many times back in the day, and this is a period when they were magnificent. 'Now l'm Here' just released as a single, and the 'Sheer Heart Attack' album getting heavy rotation in my household, helping e cope with the demise of Glam. What a time to be alive
peter thiel, palantir and the antichrist
Another scandal that will raise it's ugly head soon. Peter Thiel and Palantir should be nowhere near our national security databases.
The full article is here. but many similar ones can be found with a very quick search.

Thinking of heading to the (not so good at the moment) USA and unsure where bears are? Worry not. Here's a handy map. Thank me later.

manchester is doomed
If you know, you know. What an equaliser that was, but sadly the draw against West Ham means no 5 wins in a row (again).

'illegal' migrants
When are Labour going to wake up and stop pandering to the right? Just call them migrants (or unprocessed migrants) FFS, as 'illegals' just spreads the hateful rhetoric and fuels the Reform mob. Right leaning voters will bugger of to right wing parties, and this kind of language just pisses off and disenfranchises people on the left.
walk hard - the dwarf version
A mate was raving about this spoof music documentary that l'd never seen, so l ordered the DVD. I foolishly ordered a format l couldn't play, so ordered a normal one. When discussing it before the normal one arrived, l mentioned the 'dwarf' on the cover (or whatever the correct terminology is these days), and was rightly mocked, as it most certainly isn't, but in my defence l still maintain it looks like it could be. It was worth the wait, as it's a pretty good spoof.

I should really have frozen some of this, but decided to eat it every day since last Friday. It wasn't the wrong choice.

the joys of rural living - disturbed by a peacock (fnaar)
I wondered what all the racket was coming from outside my living room window, and lo and behold it's a (poorly photographed) peacock. The joys of rural living.

George Clinton may have been as mad as a bag of bees but he's got some valid points about racism (and aliens).

boys from the liverpool slums 1956 by thurston hopkins
Thurston Hopkins took this (and other) photographs for a feature about Liverpool slums in 1956 for The Picture Post that were not published at the time, as city politicians thought it would give a bad impression of the city. I think the lads look pretty smart considering how poor they probably were, and a short time before then, their forefathers would probably have been walking around barefooted. They could also be mates of my uncle Ray.
With thanxs to Colin Smith.
And here's some more from the same series.
finneas defends billie eilish
Well said that man, and it's about time more people with a voice that can reach millions spoke up and called out the child rapist Trump and his lickspittle minions.

peter mandelson in todays times magazine
From today. The sort of front cover that you think must be fake, but isn't. What the actual fuck are The Times doing having this as their front cover? Also, l may burn all my Levis if they make me look like this.
Here's the Epstein files version.
