Glorious morning. This’ll be the best bit of it as we’re now off on a sixty mile round trip to Stornoway to do the big shop.
It's easy to succumb to outrage fatigue. But this was four days ago. 2,000 killed. 1.2 million displaced. Entire villages demolished. A 40km 'buffer zone' (10% of Lebanon's territory) annexed. It's barely raised a resigned shrug, but it meets the criteria for war crime. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
What did leopards do to deserve this.
The Big Sleep (obviously) and Casablanca.
Good Lord!
I just want to say I enjoyed this exchange and love how special you both are.
Oh Mandy
You came and you gave without vetting
But I sent you anyway
Oh, Mandy
Well, your Epstein links were very upsetting
And I’m wriggling today
Oh, Mandy!
Starmer now has an opportunity to do the funniest thing ever and appoint Boris Johnson as the new ambassador to the United States.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS FATHER

My initial reaction to this pic.
I can’t be the only one waiting for a stammering Starmer incandescent with rage, rending his garments before howling at the gallery and taking on a greenish tinge.

I had my sperm frozen today. They really should increase the security at Farmfoods.

Six years ago today.
Idiot.
When you’re propped up at the bar in a busy pub and hear the bloke next to you saying to his girlfriend/wife/partner, ‘Don’t you think you’ve had enough?’
And you just sit there quietly with your pint, thinking...
Just taking a minute to realise I had already finished University by then, and also to remember deciding to never watch this pile of shit.
*Watched it on VHS with a girlfriend a few months later 🤷♂️
‘I’m a fucking alligator, Daniel.’
I have complete faith in your recovery abilities. Remember, egg is your friend in any hangover scenario. That’s science.
Honestly, more heroic.

‘OH MY GOD, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PSYCHOPATHS!’
Dad off to work of a morning.
