Who remembers Ward’s Irish House under Piccadilly Circus? In a thousand years time I hope archaeologists break into it as if into a Pharoah’s tomb and marvel at the grave goods: jars of pickled eggs, dimpled pint pots, a cigarette machine.

My daughter is regaling us with stories about her weekend as an elf in a South London Santa’s Grotto. On arrival for her shift she was told ‘Don’t hog the toilet. Santa’s got a urine infection.’

Is Dulwich College being pressed to say what it knew about Farage’s alleged anti-semitism and racist behaviour? Surely the teaching staff would have picked up on it, or was he allowed to inflict his alleged views on other pupils undetected by anyone in authority?

Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head?
Over the heather the wet wind blows,
I’ve lice in my tunic and a cold in my nose.
The rain comes pattering out of the sky,
I’m a Wall soldier, I don’t know why.
