covid denier dies of covid
I may well have a dark sense of humour, but l found this news form BBC online hilarious. Not just a Covid denier dying from it, but believing right to the end his religious faith would protect him rather than science, and therefore didn't have a jab.
Idiot

"Nearer My God To Thee" Sam Cooke & Soul Stirrers
This just gets better and better as it goes along. Mr Cooke certainly knows how to put emotion into a song

The Freak Brothers Official Mini Episode and new series
I'm really looking forward to this Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers series (including Fat Freddie's Cat), which is now ready to go. I was worried they might make a mess of it as l loved the comic books, but by the mini movies I've seen so far, it looks like they've nailed it. Hurrah!!

the uk from the international space station
The UK from the International Space Station. Look at how close we are to Europe, and yet we think we are so different
cold war steve celebrates the footie
Just remember that as England advance and are praised by Priti Patel and Boris Johnson, they said they had no problem with the fans booing the team when the players were taking the knee, and most of the players would not be eligible to play for England if their immigrant families tried to get into the UK under current rules, as they would be denied entry.
A much harder game against Denmark coming up.
the story of mary maclane
At last! A woman who sounds just like me. Pity she's not alive anymore.
leading the way
England are doing well at the football at the moment, and it's good to know we are also head and shoulders above the European Union when it comes to recent Covid cases!!
Hurrah!!! Bloody foreigners!!!

bob dylan is talented at painting
Bob Dylan is not just a musical colossus and a dry witted cantankerous genius, but is also interested in other art forms, including welding and, as you can see below, painting. Talented git.
I'll miss him when he's gone

jimi hendrix at the isle of wight
I've never seen this photograph of Jimi Hendrix at The Isle of Wight Festival before, but it is stunning, as it makes him look so vulnerable. Especially poignant, as he died shortly afterwards.

forever changes and peanuts mixture
One of my favourite albums (Love, Forever Changes), amalgamated with one of my favourite cartoon strips (Charlie Brown / Peanuts) from when l was younger. If someone's not selling t-shirts of this, they should be.

sleeping squirrels
I can't remember where l got this picture from, and l'm too lazy to bother finding out, but someone found squirrels had made a nest on their balcony, so this is the kind of sight they were witnessing each day.
Don't they look cute as anything. I bet you could relieve any stress you have by just sitting there watching them for a while.

wrongly convicted of murder
This is a good reason why there shouldn't be the death penalty, as poor old Christopher Tapp might have been executed by now, as he confessed to rape and murder, despite the fact someone else (Brian Dripps) committed it. Tapp spent nearly 20 years in prison for it, and it raises a lot of questions about how he was coerced (lets face it - probably beaten) by the police to confess and give up other names, so there should be some follow up investigations and arrests to do with that.
mad george best fans
I sometimes forget that there are madder people than me out in the world, and that includes idiots who will spend a lot of money on crap like this, a 1969 cardboard cut out (small) of George Best from Shoot magazine. The reason l know? I bid £30 for it and it went for £46.67. For a small cardboard cut out!!! The sad thing is, l now wish l'd bid more, as it's only money, and l might never get the chance to get my hands on one of these precious happy childhood memories again.
Plus l could have always flogged it in the future when l no longer wanted it. Bugger!

the conservatives becoming the national front
I've said it before. The present Conservative Government are becoming more right wing and corrupt the longer they have been in power, and looking at this old photograph from 1970 by Romano Cagnoni, featuring posters promoting The National Front, my views have been reinforced.

steve took is still falling over
Frendz newspaper relaying the fact that Steve Took (formally of Tyrannosaurus Rex) has stopped taking so many drugs, but is still falling over. My guess (and you don't have to be a genius to work this out) is he was still taking the drugs. Probably saying he'd stopped to get the pigs off his back.
leeds benefit rip off grafitti
It's not often l have good things to say about Dirty Leeds, especially back in the 1980's, but l doth my cap to whoever altered this poster, as that's where and when this photograph was taken
the 1980 radio one christmas party
Everyone looks so happy in this Radio One Christmas party photograph, except of course, John Peel, who l imagined loathed pretty much all of them. The loops he had to leap through to keep his show going must have been excruciating for him.

clockwork orange hats
The Droogs in Stanley Kubrick's classic adaptation of William S Burrough's Clockwork Orange might have ended up looking completely different if one of these options had been preferred
