elaine paige having cock

l've only just seen this from earlier on in the lockdown, but it certainly made me laugh. Elaine Paige dealing with the lockdown with cock, according to The Telegraph. At least she took it well (Fnaaar)

lockdown with the beatles

 If we'd have had lockdown in the 1960's, The Beatles would have been slightly different.

cold war steve on the trump illness

This just made me laugh out loud. A brilliant bit of satire by Cold War Steve on Donald Trump's Covid treatment.

Please don't waste your time asking me about what l hope Trump's outcome will be.

On a related note...

l'm a celebrity is coming back

Good to know that, despite Covid 19, there will be a new series of 'I'm a Celebrity' albeit filmed in a Castle in the UK.
Looking forward to seeing these two cheeky chappies again.

william shatner as a female

This made me laugh a month or so ago. William Shatner responding to a tweet of himself as a woman.

Funny, but also true

a tony hancock painting from the rebel has been spotted

An excellent spot by Steve Hardy regarding a lost Tony Hancock 'Masterpiece' from 'The Rebel'. It was thought the paintings were destroyed after the film, but this was spotted in an episode of Department S.

Now that's what l call being eagled eyed, and rather sadly, l'm pretty damn pleased the painting is hopefully still out there somewhere. I've got a copy of another one from the film ('Self Portrait') sitting on one of my dusty shelves.

I really need to get a life!

sheldon cooper was ahead of the game

It's still weird watching TV in the new Coronavirus / Covid-19 age, with the social distancing and people doing live screen links, usually from their homes. It always reminds me of  the rather splendid episode of  The Big Bang Theory  where Sheldon Cooper makes an electronic 'Shelbot' version of himself so that he doesn't have to leave his apartment.

I knew he was a genius, but not that he was a soothsaying prophet.

wank pass

I've nicked this from Popbitch, but it's well worth sharing. A bit expensive, but well worth the money.
Shame l've already bought my Christmas presents, as l know somebody who would have appreciated this.

family guy explain the allure of ecstacy

This made me laugh out loud the other night - Family Guy taking the piss out of why people take Ecstasy. It's not just funny because most of what they say is true (I used to take it a lot), and they are not afraid to state it, it's also the asides such as Peter being told off by Louis and Chris asking what the name of it is at the end, as he obviously wants some.
Classic stuff.

cryptic message on my hand

When l was off work last week for a few days, l stayed up all night, drinking and listening to music. At one stage in the early hours, l turned all the lights off in my living room, to chill out and immerse myself in the tunes l was playing at the time (Early T.Rex if you must know). However, l then had a rather splendid idea l wanted to remember, and as l didn't want to get up and put the lights on, l wrote it on the palm of my hand in the blackness.
Great idea - Didn't have a clue what it was the next morning.

Then again - it was a long night!

bollocks to brexit

As l was watching the latest vote about Brexit earlier today, l was reminded of this crossword from a September issue of The Guardian.
Subtle brainwashing at its best, but if you can't see what l am on about, read across from the top and bottom lines.

eventful walk home from the pub

Always handy to keep your eyes peeled for action on the walk home from the pub (last night)

 As usual - not much traffic about

 The joys of living by an Army Garrison

 Still no traffic

 Beauty trying to escape it's shackles

 Really prominent directions

 There's always one flower that gets too pissed and lets the side down

what a drag it is getting old (part 457)

I may have put these up before but can't be bothered checking (life's too short etc). 

I'm indestructible so l hate to think what l will look like when l am 372. It's bad enough now!

glimmer twins graffiti at white shops

To people of a certain age that grew up around Catterick, this was a regular sight at the corner of White Shops (Where the kebab place is now). Every time the graffiti was painted over, another one was done, only slightly bigger, until the cartoons were nearly life size. 

Obviously l have no idea who did it, but it was funny for a while (Though probably not for the shop owner)
