*more late night laughs

And "The Last remake of Beau Geste" for the late night laughs?

This week in 1939, Billie Holiday released "Strange Fruit." A song that still stops you in your tracks, still demands to be heard, and still carries a truth the world must never forget.

Lovely spot. Emo Court is fantastic for bluebells too!

I did it before it was cool.
(about 1973, I was 11)

I opened Copilot and prompted :
who wrote the poem "On waking in a Dudley Travelodge"?

Copilot:
The poem **“On waking in a Dudley Travelodge”** was written by **Andrew McMillan**, a British poet.

Andrew McMillan is known for contemporary poetry that often explores place, class, .... , and this poem is frequently cited as an example of his observational, quietly lyrical style.

Have you written "That's Jools Holland on piano" yet? or is that in Vol II of Poems (You) Shall Never Write

Tenements or sheds, that's the option now.
Even where there are legal standards, they are flouted - this move opens floodgates for some truly awful scenarios.
Another abdication by FFG.

Entertainment is the best - this guy should try it sometime!

Was there even a funeral? was your son there? Was he outside having a ciggy when they did the burny-burny-fire thing? Was it raining so he didn't wonder why nobody went to the cemetery?
SO many questions!
Apart from that - 🤣 The poor guy's mind during that exchange!

"And the next song is your favourite song - once again."

That Feckin Sleeveen.

Anybody watching "The Boys" on Prime video is bound to be asking themselves:
Does Trump have some special lethal super-powers?

Same, robot. Same

That's actually the Olympia (now the "3Olympia") theatre awning - a fabulous piece that was brilliantly restored after a truck knocked into it a few years ago.

During a Late Late Show special, celebrating the people of #Derry, #JohnHume sang a traditional Irish song called, Tráthnóna beag aréir. A song with great links to Donegal, specifically the Rosses area in the west of the county 🇮🇪 #Irish #Ireland #Donegal #BloodyForeland enjoy and repost 🔄❤️🤗

Looking forward to seeing Les Negresses Vertes in Hamburg on May 3rd.

I got kicked out of the queue for Heaven in 1990. I had joined a stag party straight from work, still in suit and tie - not really the dress code.
The best man had distributed Es shortly before I got the bad news, and I ended up dancing on stage at the Leicester Square Empire.

One of the greatest tw1tter threads ever, in animated film format, with two legends in the lead roles!

"All men have secrets and here is mine, so let it be known.
We have been though hell and high tide
I think I can rely on you"

Bloody brilliant! Glad you shared back then, I vividly remember getting more creased up as each tw33t revealed more!

Dreadful stuff. I hope teachers are smart enough to chuck it in the bin.
