My brother’s sitting with a friend at a window table in a pub in Oxford.
Friend says “Was that Brian Blessed in the street?”
And then, right by the window:
“YES IT’S ME, BRIAN BLESSED! BWAH HA HA HA!”. And then RAN away.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

actually 'Alan Moore' is a recurring myth-cycle figure, from the 13th century magician 'Alain Moore' said to have learnt his snake-craft in the Orient to the bearded 18th century highwayman 'Alan of the Moor' to today's magician-cum-comics book writer.
His lunacy is idiosyncratic and rooted in a particular place and social milieu, a crazy person that only NYC could generate. Like how Alan Moore could only come from Northampton

ME: *writing in my journal with the sole aim of pissing off future historians and archaeologists* I returned to my home - which is built in the usual style - by the normal way, and prepared and ate dinner in the way I often but not always do

Will eat crow and admit I never anticipated Ukraine outperforming them so dramatically in the Russian military's core competency: blowing up Russian aircraft.
