If you don't laugh... 😂

Bit of a British TV reference that's probably lost on Bluesky 'Murica but here you go anyway 😉 😂

They have to be that tall so they can reach the keyboard and phone receiver.

The spider verse films are the best of the best. I therefore think Miles should stay animated only to protect that legacy.

Nigel Farage earns over a million pounds a year.

Still claims £160,900 in expenses (benefits)

Moans about people abusing benefits.

But not himself, of course.

Agreed!

That’s genius! Can certainly see someone running with that at some point in the future (or past?)

Morning all!

They were back (well, two at least) by the first weekend in April in my part of Kent. Very early this year.

It's my birthday this Friday (17th) so I thought I'd have a little sale, just because :) From now up until midnight on Sunday (BST) there'll be 17% off all orders, no codes to add, it automatically applies at checkout 🥰

Still hoping that someone will re show Callan!

Faster than the naked eye!

Should be part of his next test.

Radio Active’s mass debate on nuclear war is available on BBC sounds right now. Years since I last heard it, and still just as #funny (& perhaps even more relevant today than when broadcast in 1984).

Certainly in the top 5 Marvel films!

“Methinks the woman doth protest too much?”

And, less poetically, the timing is well odd. Clearly, someone is about to go public with something interesting…

The plot to murder Lloyd George on 2 looks interesting

Yes, thanks. annoyingly I can’t get that one (& i don’t like watching tv on my laptop or phone). Sure it will make one of the mainstream apps in due course

I keep hoping that one of the mainstream channels or apps will repeat Out Of Town as a marvellous window into countryside traditions back to the start of the 20th century.

Me too. My favourite podcast (despite- or possibly because - it being monthly rather than daily or weekly). Genuinely funny, interesting and (as you say) soothing.

Haven’t listened yet - but will do. And I’m certainly in the Morton camp on this argument (some fantastic writing in WOTW).

Brilliant!

Ah, Sir Arthur had obviously moved on from teaching the ravens to fly underwater then (pity, it was a promising project).

Undeniably a cool cover!

Yeah- that will learn him!

I can cook anything pretty well - EXCEPT bread!

It’s too exacting a science for “creatives” I think (or that’s my excuse at least).

HNY James!

Wolverine v Hellfire Club was my favourite x-men story.

Looking at responses & your additional comments then perhaps just buy a slow cooker (with a ceramic liner)?

They are dirt cheap (both to buy (if you shop around) and run) and last forever.

The coldest Christmas Day in North Kent for many years - which feels so much better than those strangely warm ones. Bracing day for a quiet country walk.

@eleanormorton.bsky.social & @misterabk.bsky.social - thank you for a truly great podcast series that I look forward to each & every month. I just stumbled across this on BBC Sounds which ties together Alice’s adventures, the hobbit & Narnia beautifully. Have a great Christmas.
