Daniel Craig looking weirdly a bit like Jon Pertwee, maybe?

Gotta kill the maga (mbga? Eh), obviously, for the greater good.

FB Memories reminds me of the time those lads who were selling a bowl of Lucky Charms for six quid a pop got a book deal and produced the laziest 'Will this do?' thing ever published.

Cereal Killer. Like serial killer. Those people who murder people. Geddit?

If you put a gun to my head on a rollercoaster while defusing a bomb I could still think of something better than what they've farted onto this page.

Cut out masks of the two perpetrators of the cafe should you wish to look like a prick or a twat.

Looks like those Scottish footballers from the 80s who seem to have been born aged 45

Just want to know this one's age, how do you call yourself "young" with that combover?

Well, what do we have here? A pretty lady reading a *book*. Of course I've read that one myself, I have recommendations for more intellectually stimulating tomes...

If you ever wonder if you might be a bad parent, the fact you're wondering probably means you're not. You don't have to be outstanding. You don't get extra points. You just need to survive and do as little harm as possible. Trust me

Hello.
It me.
October 7th is World Trigeminal Neuralgia Awareness Day.
6+ years and counting. It's a life changing illness. There is no cure. Facial pain falls down the cracks between diciplines. It's recognised as one of the worst pains in medicine.

Light & Shadow

I love the secret feature at Nine Elms London Underground station that reveals itself during a sunny day.

If you arrive at the perfect moment, the roundel logo is beautifully projected onto the floor.

So I took Dancer Andreya with me to interact with the scene.

Always feel sorry for giraffes in this weather. Scarves are prohibitively expensive and a steaming bowl of delicious warming soup or stew is cold by the time you've finished swallowing.

I read someone saying that "Neurospicy" was problematic and I'm like only if you think spicy is pejorative and what does that say about YOU
