My guess is that he was after The Detectorists, hence Gummidge. It may well be brilliant but the pictures I’ve seen are so creepy I’ll have to take your word for it.

It’ll be worth it just to get out of the meetings.

I see where you’re coming from, but I’ve cast Jaime Murray as Modesty since the
First time I saw her on screen.

Who else has just learned that there is apparently a new 50p design?

I'm on Bob's side! That first picture is almost directly opposite my house and that pothole is a nightmare because parking is allowed on the other side of the road making it hard to avoid.

I've set up my home office in a different room and Bear the cat, usually a standoffish, companion, has seen fit to join me.

Are you doing 80s themed merchandise @herring1967.bsky.social ? Seen in a Clacton charity shop.

Lowlander in Covent Garden is probably worth a try.

We demand the finest sausage rolls known to humanity!

The lampshade by the window is giving me an evil grin.

I have never known my ‘credit score’, have no idea why so many ads suggest I should find out and, tbh, have little idea of what a credit score is and less of why it might matter.

If we could have done it online like a TV licence we would.

I’m partial to a trench coat. I bought my first one as an adult at a flea market in Brighton. ‘Going out to do some flashing later?’ said the woman behind the stall. ‘You read my mind’ I replied.

One Foot in the Rave

Oi! You! Yes, you House of Games. Bra does not rhyme with Star!

Some early-spring afternoon light drama on a walk after work

Is there some deeper meaning behind the Comic Relief trailer, or is it just really creepy?

I’m agnostic in the matter, but are there any significant disadvantages where they aren’t usual such as most of Europe?

It’s always the same. We have somehow reached the last week of February even though it only started five minutes ago after January lasted since at least the Major government.

This is in the park just across the river from us, and we’ll hear every note. Lucky us. Tbf there are some other gigs in the series we might even enjoy hearing.

The former, but the sort of occasion I would rather avoid anyway.

A feature about the film director Coralie Fargeat said: "Fargeat is all smiles in the office of her production company in central London. There's a big plate of salami - she loves salami (I love salami!)." To clarify, Fargeat was not in the office of her production company but that of Working Title, and she is a vegetarian. Also, her first film, Le télégramme (2003), wOir several awards, not just two as we said.

superior Guardian correction

I relate strongly. I lived on Dallas Road in the 90s and the slog up the hill back from Sainsbury's was the most exercise I got all week.

Lose the fruit, keep the nuts.

Excuse me, Facebook, but Who Who?

We came out picking at plot holes. *Spoiler* How come the bears at the end hadn’t discovered marmalade when Aunt Lucy knew about it when she adopted him?

No one adjusts the amount they use based on concentration. We all use a cup, ball, scoop or whatever pee wash regardless.

Relating hard to this today.
