Note for Ocado and anyone else sending me marketing emails: use of the non-word 'spooktacular' earns you an automatic deletion.

Usually overlooked in those best authors/books lists. So, clearly, such rankings can be totally disregarded.

Anybody seen this film? Bit of an oddity, but strangely intriguing.

Hello, I ripped this off of YouTube a few years ago, now it is deleted and as an avid Beatles fan I absolutely love this movie so hopefully it stays up forever...

I asked Google a question. This is a pic of its answer.

Nice try, AI. However, the text isn't The Hanging Garden by Ian Rankin. It's Uncle Fred Flits By by P.G. Wodehouse.

Which is pretty much as wrong as it could possibly could be.

Despite it all, I believe that there's still hope - as long as people continue to say, "No. I think you'll find that this is the footpath."

I recommend this site. You know, if you like reading proper content by people who can actually write. (Benjamin Dreyer tells us off for using 'actually', but in this instance ... well, bollocks to he.)

There's a new thing called Track Record. No adverts. Free. No clickbait. Just decent writing about sport, music and entertainment. I've done a bit about shortarse geniuses, and the increasing size, and power, of Premier League players. Give it a go.

Saw an old gal in Bridgwater wearing a fleece which, half-zipped up, proclaimed that she was Ada and her beloved OH was called Nev. On the other hand...

Phil Bryer @thebryery.bsky.social · 26d

She's a menace, right enough.

I loved the original newspaper columns. Mind you, that was in the days when The Independent represented a new hope. Rather than somewhere that sat an unpaid intern on celebs' social media posts.

Stephen Miller's in the news for ... well, where can we start? Heard about the Nuremberg Rallies? You get my drift.
Anyway, we'd better get his pic up on the Rogues Wall of our AI Photo Gallery, eh?

Take one lane each, all facing in the same direction. When you hear the gun, run like hell - this is the important bit - in a straight line for about 10 seconds.
Happy to help.

Saw a #barmybookreview earlier which reminded me of a personal favourite. This person had an unusual reason for disliking Dickens' Our Mutual Friend.
