Mcsweenety there's no one like mcsweenety
For he's a fiend in spad shape, a monster of depravity
You may meet him in a by-election, you may see him in the square
But when a polling's discovered then, Mcsweenety's not there

Update: woke up in the night sneezing uncontrollably, may have made an error. Luckily antihistamines exist.

Exciting development: I just learnt that the English word "bugger" was derived from "Bulgarian" because the Eastern Orthodox, and the Bogomils, were assumed to be perverts. Amazing. I think Bulgaria would appreciate this.

I went to a shop at 5:30 today and walking past the pubs and restaurants on the way there were people well into eating dinner. What is wrong with you people. That is just not dinner time.

My birthday party in 2023 the bar had none of the things on its actual menu and the only sparkling was fucking Bandini prosecco. Terrible.

I could not have told you the exact date till I looked it up but I knew the election was in 1996 and obviously not on the 1st January and thus the email was embarrassingly wrong.

This opened last year in Hertford. And the more I think about it, the less I understand the pun.
