In 1999, we took a taxi from our hotel in Amalfi to another in the heart of Napoli*. The driver stopped the car abruptly and stood on the side of the road to chain smoke half a pack in an existential panic when my stepdad told him the then price of cigs in the UK

*now THERE was a contrast

Reminded of one of the old classics

Tweet by ‘Fresh Oats’, 20 November 2017: “I'm so stressed that sunlight hurts. I am gods mistake”. QTed by the same account with the words “Sing this to the tune of "Old MacDonald"”

Is this from King Lear? Is that what it’s all about? Figures

A friend asked if I was going to write anything besides horror/weird/existential sci fi and I looked at him incredulously and was like: ‘No. Why in the hell would I do that?!’

There’s on-screen alchemy, and then there’s Peter Lorre dovetailing with Vincent Price to deliciously wicked comedy effect in The Black Cat (Tales of Terror, Corman, 1962) 🔥🔥🔥

Cor, yeah. Rach lived in Scaredale until she was five before her family somehow swapped council houses with a lad living in a really lovely village outside Wetherby

Our lass is from Cas. It’s certainly earthy but not that bad. Saying that, she: 1. Won’t let me speak or order at the bar on the extremely rare occasion we go 2. Panicked when I put on a tweed jacket to watch my first game of rugby league
