crocheted giant cats
This woman has been crocheting giant cats, and l admire her for doing so.
I guess it's good to have a hobby, albeit an unusual one.

mr parrots looking to be entertained
Looks like Mr Parrot is looking for some entertainment and attention. Sadly for him l'll soon be going out to join the Wednesday afternoon drunkards.

The Rolling Stones - Satisfaction (Ready Steady Go) and Mick Jagger's 80th Birthday
It's Mick Jagger's 80th Birthday today, but l'm old enough to remember when he was 46 years old and considered ancient before The Rolling Stones 1989 tour. I made the foolish error of not seeing them on that tour as l too considered them too old. Now, with the passing of many more years they look like sprightly youngsters on this Q Magazine cover.
And here is is with Jerry Hall in 1996 (by Brigitte Lacomb) - looking splendid.
Lastly, Ready Steady Go. Savour the excitement.

tories being bastards part 6764468
Just a normal day at the office for the most corrupt and spiteful government l've ever known, and l remember the Margaret Thatcher years.
From The Guardian.
Never vote Tory.

looks like the car's buggered
I've got some time off work and thought l'd nip to Ikea by Newcastle today to buy some more record shelves and tidy the house up a bit. Rather sadly, engine lights came on just past the Angel of the North and the car conked out at traffic lights just by The Metro Centre. I called The AA who couldn't repair it so l ended up getting towed back to drop the car off at my local garage and to drop me off at the pub to drown my sorrows. Don't hold out a lot of hope regarding it being cost effective to be repaired, so it looks like l may have to crumble and buy another. The worst thing is l was only about a mile away from Ikea and if l'd made it there and put the shelves in the car and then broken down, l would now have them at home. What a bummer.
I blame God.

racist rishi sunak and charlotte owen in the house of lords
Tory corruption and racism part 365365
I think our great and glorious leader has forgotten he's meant to unite the country and make it better for all, not stirring up division and hatred. What a fucking rotter.
As for our great and glorious new lawmaker in The House of Lords, Charlotte Owen, if there wasn't a super injunction out, perhaps it would be common knowledge how she managed to snag the lucrative post from Boris Johnson that she now holds for life, after such a short time working for him. I've previously speculated on this before the super injunction here.
What a crap and corrupt country we currently live in.
Never vote Tory.

I've recently had reason to be driving over the North Pennines. To say it's desolate is an understatement. Looks great though.

the slightly overcooked chicken
I fell asleep on the settee while l had the chicken in the oven, and it cooked for an extra hour. I think it's pretty safe to say it was ever so slightly overcooked, and the skin was like pork scratchings.
Nice though!

the mail on sunday does free publicity
This is great free publicity for the upcoming documentary on government lies. Can't wait to see it!
As an aside, Boris Johnson himself has admitted on record that he only had a mild case of Covid compared to the general population. Then again, when has The Mail on Sunday ever let the facts get in the way of their ridiculous headlines and stories?
the grateful dead's speaker system
When l win the lottery, this is what my speaker system will look like. I hope the neighbours are prepared.
Luckily for them, l also have great taste in music.

the uxbridge result
The people who didn't vote Labour, and chose to vote for fringe parties with no chance, l hope you are all happy the Conservatives are retained. Vote tactically, get rid of the bastard Tories, and then start backing your own agendas, otherwise we'll be subjected to more years of the most corrupt government l have ever known (and l'm an old git).

there's no magic money tree - oh...hold on..
Despite the fact we are told by the government there's no money to pay decent wages, feed schoolchildren, process asylum applications etc, apparently it can always be found to help the already super rich.
Never vote Tory (and abolish the monarchy)

FFS Don't theses people have the very basis knowledge of how interest rates work? Prices are still rising, just at a slower rate. Knobheads.

going out again
It's a hard life, but someone's got to do it. I was out all day yesterday, and I'm heading out again at 4pm for Birthday drinks with a mate. Luckily l am back at work tomorrow so my liver can have a rest.
At least l've got my outfit sorted.

scrapping inheritance tax
This will affect the wealthiest people in the land (less than 4%) and cost billions in lost taxes. Funny how the money can always be found to help the already rich.

rod little and shagging kids, with added boris johnson and dan wootton
Where's The Sun outrage over this kind of stuff (albeit old). The odious Rod Little, still a current ' journalist'. Then again, so is the lying Boris Johnson and Dan Wootton. Hopefully all soon to change.
