Fuck off Kate. You have a nanny for grown children, cleaners, don't have a job, assistant, personal hairdressers, and are loaded.

You know what does damage family life more? Poverty. Put your literal money where your mouth is then I may take you seriously.

Kate warns too much screen time damages family life.

Personally, I'd swap Circle Sky or Randy Scouse Git for Accidental Hipster, but great list.

Long weekend in Toronto anyone?

The image is a promotional poster for the "Fifty Something" tour by the Canadian rock band Rush.

The tour will feature co-founders Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson and is a celebration of the band's legacy and a tribute to their late drummer and lyricist, Neil Peart, who passed away in 2020.

The tour is the band's first in 11 years and will feature Anika Nilles as the new drummer.

The "Fifty Something" tour is scheduled to begin in June 2026.

The band has announced additional shows due to high demand.

Donald Featherstone!

We played a mixture of Tank Battles In Miniature / Skirmish Wargaming ( with some homebrew 2000AD rules ) and then Operation Warboard after seeing it on the Edward Woodward 'Battleground' TV show.

Updated M2 files on itch. (if you downloaded before you'll wanna check back, there's an additional character sheet you might unlock) Also ordered 1000 copies now that the printer is back up. Uncoated paper, plastic free FSC baby! 64 pages of pure fun! (and some scary) mostly existential.

So why step on the obvious rake? Say, "this ID is incredibly useful, remember all that hassle voting? This fixes it & lots of other things." Totally wrong headed & an avoidable own goal. For the few 'gammons' who think this is good, you've got almost 3 million signing a petition against it.

It very much is. There's no mention of anything other than that and "securing out borders'. It's chasing Reform voters, like every other stupid scheme announced by this Government.

If people are working illegally already, how will this help? It'll be another thing to ignore when taking on new illegal workers, surely?

I was working in London the day the news broke that she'd resigned. I went over the road to a pub & had a drink to celebrate. When the news of her death came through, I was at home, so I had a bigger drink.
