This is for someone's birthday who I don't know so I should probably butt out, but it might be the funniest thing I've seen all week.

I’ve been listening to the latest Madness compilation on my commute and two things:
1. The finest singles band ever*? Yes.
2. God, they make me feel happy…is there anything more important than that?
* I’m not counting the Beatles in the argument because, you know, they’re the Beatles.

I thought this was going to turn into a story needing its own True Crime Netflix series, but no.
This is quite something.

The legend that was Paddy Byrne died yesterday. A man woven into the fabric of Liverpool lore, he ran the Everyman Bistro. Ran is such a small word for what he did. Paddy embodied a venue that was a space for artists, actors, musicians and everything in between www.instagram.com/p/DRHhsfKjGA...

Five years ago tonight my dad died, two days into the second lockdown. Like so many Covid deaths his could have been avoided but for the sheer ineptitude and callousness of Johnson’s government.
They caused so much heartbreak.
I love you dad, I wish you were still with us xx

One of my cats is hiding outside somewhere due to what can only be described as a recreation of the battle of the Somme going on in the neighbourhood.
