I recall 8 1/2 as being more avant-garde and showily clever. But none the worse for that.

Amarcord however, I have strong nostalgic attachment to

Does the chorus to Altered Images version of Happy Birthday niggle you?

If they were me, if they were me
And I was you, and I was you
If they were me, if they were me
And I was you, and I was you
If they were me and I was you
Would you've liked a present too?

what percentage of voters, would you say, know that northern Ireland voted to remain? 25%? more?

Could the leader of the opposition actually less well informed than the average voter?

I wonder if Reform's poll lead is sufficient large for NF to completely dictate terms.

Perhaps a reverse takeover is the most likely outcome?

Not sure how many grandees are left and it would be suitably theatrical booting them out (cf. Nicholas Soames)

I wonder if the Unionist bits of the "Conservative and Unionist Party" might be looking to get out while they still can?

Photo of an empty, muddy, old plastic bottle with a single handle. The bottle is lying on soil surrounded by stones of varying shapes and sizes. The side of the bottle with handle is uppermost. The mouth end of the container points towards bottom left of the picture.

There is text above the image of the plastic bottle which reads “Ancient skull found on archaeological dig is proof of our alien origins”. Having read the text, at first glance the plastic bottle looks similar to an alien skull. The body of the bottle looks like a long skull,the handle looks like a nose, and the indents with shadow either side of the handle look like eyes. An example of pareidolia!

Are the passenger rates still really expensive?

I would really love to do this but it seems higher than some fancy retreats...

I am currently reading "The British Surrealists" by Desmond Morris, a delightfully biased and unreliable narrator on this subject. The 7 pages on Jennings are rather piquant
