In Sefton Park today and a fire engine had been called out. The little man is obsessed so when the guys had finished their job they very kindly let him (and me) have a go on the hose.
Safe to say it made his day.

Today I built these two items of furniture. It took me a ludicrous amount of time and energy. I left a piece of my soul in that room today.
But I did it.

Superb. A wild, frenetic and almost overwhelming ride from start to finish. Incredible direction and awesome soundtrack. Chalamet a tour de force. Lots of Oscars incoming.

There has been a really bizarre outpouring of sympathy/defence in some quarters for Paul Doyle, who deliberately drove his car into hundreds of people, causing horrific trauma and injuries. This person says that he knows more than Doyle’s own lawyers because he happens to have a degree.
