There was also 'Pig' who spoke in the thickest possible Brummie accent and ate, disgustingly, everything within its grasp... and a monkey...
Characters from Pipkins: Pig, Hartley and Topov

Oh my... Watching QI on Dave and, wowsers... I - and the panellists - had no idea that Rorschach (of the eponymous ink blot test) was so seriously *hot*...
A black and white photo of Hermann Rorschach from Wikipedia. He wears a white wing collared shirt and thin Art Nouveau patterned tie. His slightly tousled hair is cut in a timeless style. His face could be that of a young, emerging Hollywood actor - a touch of Tom Cruise, a dollop of Tom Wlashiha and a smattering of Jack Davenport. Anyway, I most certainly would...

Perfect excuse for a completely gratuitous photo of the best Doctor Who ever... #JonPertwee #ThirdDoctor #DoctorWhoDay
A still of actor Jon Pertwee as the third generation of Doctor Who. He looks alittle like a magician, wearing a black cape with red silt lining, a ruffled white dress shirt and elaborately tied black cravat. He holds out his hands and his expression is hypnotic, as if he is saying an ancient incantation such as "I've reversed the polarity of the neutron flow..."

I really miss July...
#Cold #WinterBlues
A close up photo of a Wisteria bloom in strong summer morning sunlight. The purple blossoms contrast deliciously withe the verdant young green leaves.

I think you're right - I think it's a Ford, but I think it's a Corsair... looking at the angle of the rear lights and slight upturn of the rear bumper... 😁
A white 1966 Ford Corsair from the rear showing the rear lights and rear bumper - to help us identify one of the cars in the image on the original post to this thread...

This is from Star Wars LoFi that I listen to, but I would really like to build an apartment like this...
Basically I really, really want to live in a galaxy far, far away...
Concept artwork for the galley aboard the star yacht Stinger Mantis as it is travelling through hyperspace. The angle is low o the ground, looking up at Cal Kestis preparing food. Greez Dritus lounges in a seating area four steps down, beside exotic plants hanging in a lit refirgerator. The artwork is typical of the Star Wars 'look' - futuristic, sculptural and imaginative.

I'm sure these 'most people' would prefer to be driving an Austin Allegro too...
Usually the colour of baby poo, and usually broken down at the side of the road...
A baby-poo coloured Austin Allegro - possibly symbolising everything that was wrong with the 1970s...

Saw this on the Instagrams, but it is soooooooo true:
Screenshot that states: "Gen-X are just 45-60 year olds who look 30-40 years old, but mentally still teenagers." It is a white serif typeface on a scumbled black background.

So I have quite a nasty cough... but at least it is not the covid...
A negative covid test.

I can't help but see the #PedoPresident as #VickyPollard now... 😁
A still from Little Britain showing Matt Lucas as the character Vicky Pollard ("Yeah, but no, but yeah, but no, right?") She wears a neon pink polyester track suit zipped right up, a big gold chain, badly bleached hair tied up in a top knot with a pink scrunchie, very bad make up and an utterly vacant expression.

Kentish cottages...
A row of old Kentish cottages, with a slightly stormy autumn sky behind them.

#TreeOfTheDay A beautiful old oak in east Kent... @thekentacorn.bsky.social
A beautiful old oak tree beside a tudor half beam Kentish house. The low afternoon autumn sun rakes across one wall. The oak has lost most but not quite all of its leaves.

No one has post this yet? Really? #OneRingToRuleThemAll... #LOTR
Still photo from the Lord of the Rings films, of the One Ring. A golden band with Black Speech writing on it, illuminated by fire.

One for @privateeyenews.bsky.social : #SeparatedAtBirth ? #Musk #GrimaWormtongue
Two photos side by side, one of Grima Wormtongue - the evil agent of Saruman that corrupts Theoden in the Lord of the Rings, and one of Elon Musk - the evil agent of Trump/Putin that corrupts the internet... the resemblance is uncanny.

America... W T Holy F...???
A screen shot from BBC News "Trump [...] threatens to cut funding if Mamdani wins. A blatant, abject, grotesque negation of democracy that needs to get the senile, incontinent, toxic, depraved, nazi #PedoPresident removed.

Now you don't...
The same view of the Memorial Gardens, this time in late Spring, with most trees in full leaf. I have outlined where the Mulberry Tree used to stand.

Now you see it...
A view of the Memorial Gardens in the Precincts of Canterbury Cathedral, in early Spring, looking towards the Cathedral. I have outlined the Mulberry Tree in one corner.

Earth, 2049...
A photo of the surface of Mars, the red planet: dry red rocks, dry red sand and a dry red sky... Humanity is killing Earth and it will end up like Mars sooner rather than later... in our children's lifetimes.

I see your Dickins & Jones... and I raise you one Derry & Toms...
A very old photograph of the very old London department store, Derry & Toms - so beloved of Joan Hickson's Miss Marple...

This is going to be one of my go-to images henceforth for #DiaperDon the #MangoMobster #CriminalinChief from now on:
A screenshot of DiaperDiplomacy's BlueSky post showing the #CriminalinChief as a baby. AI generated, obviously, but hilarious. Go check it out.

Never gets old...
🎶"My milkshake brings all the c**ts to the yard..." 🎶
A lying, racist, gobshite grifter, a Russian asset, hypocritical traitor in an expensive suit getting deservedly sloshed with a milkshake - either banana or vanilla, I surmise - in what was clearly a well-staged PR stunt. The 'security' around the aforementioned gobshite are completely unconcerned, and a few bystanders are clapping and looking highly amused. This should be a weekly event...

"Cad Bane at your service. I'll take on any job... for the right price"
An image of bounty Huner Cad Bane from Star Wars. He wears a very wide brim dark hat low over his eyes, which are wide, insect-like and glittery red. His face is blue and he has no nose... The similarities to Melania are uncanny...

With all this flag-shagging going on, I think I might line the five panels of my balcony with five flags close to my heart:
EU / IE / FR / DK / Progress
(Strange that the Bluesky does not have flag emojis...)
Flag emojis: EU, Ireland, France, Denmark, Progress
