So I've heard. Don't see the attraction myself. Mind you, I spent a lot of time at The Baseball Ground when I were a nipper.

If anyone in Edinburgh fancies an 8 string ukulele (I think it's a concert size) for 60 quid please ask. Local to save on postage. We could meet somewhere and swap cash for a ukulele. Like some kind of twee drug deal.

A selfie of me by the tallest stone, which towers above me. I look, and indeed am, jolly pleased with myself

Looks like a typo just before the link - it says 'Stockholm' rather than 'Skokholm'.

Looks like I'm going to be having a short, unexpected, break in Wexford. Any recommendations for things to see, places to go, food, drink, music, whatever?

22.00 FILM: EVRI-THING, EVRI-WHERE ALL AT ONCE
Award-winning multiverse adventure where your parcel is somehow at the depot, in transit, in your safe place, left with a neighbour, delayed, returned to send, in your green bin, all at the same time - but never actually with you.

Ooh, I'll take that. The only times I've ever been called amazing in real life have been after a catastrophe, along the lines of 'it's amazing you managed to fuck it up so badly'.

Prince died ten years ago. Rupert Murdoch is still alive. I’d like to speak to the manager, please.

If anyone's getting up a petition to ask Brian to write 'Shit! It's Jeremy Clarkson!', I'm in.

Maybe they'll do 'The Lamb', and have Michael Ball dressed as a Puerto Rican street punk. Or a flautist standing on one leg. Or a giant gong which bursts into flames. Or double-necked violins. The possibilities are intriguing.

King Henry VII died on this day in 1509. It hasn't stopped him from making a decent cider, though.

I'm looking forward to seeing a classically trained musician stick daggers into the keyboard of the Grand Organ at the Royal Albert Hall during the Keith Emerson segment.

It's a great location, Drumtroddan. There's only one stone standing now, like a cowled figure watching over the landscape.

Anyone else initially read this as 'wooden ring'? Just me then. Pleased to see that the finder is described as a 'metal detectorist' - thanks to a certain programme, that's one mistake we no longer make.

Experience all the excitement of international blockades in your own home! Play "Strait of Hormuz" by having a family and only one bathroom, whose use is perpetually contested through the deployment of threats, negotiations, bluff, bluster, blackmail, and bursts of irrational violence.
