Well, if you zoom in to the picture and look at my arms, you will see they are covered in a mess of scars.

When I show people that picture, they are normally incredibly embarrassed (I don't know why) and ask "What happened to your arms?"

I managed to get the last pair of those shoes in the country. Amazingly they were in my size.

@morrighani.bsky.social Ah I will show you anyway because it is hilarious😀

My shoes have arrived! Fabulous, eh?

I have a picture of me in shortalls going to a rather fun birthday party. I will only show it to you if you promise not to get the wrong idea. I should point I out I am not offering to show you something inappropriate.

I do not mean this in an offensive manner but following my lead, you know where to put it!

Top effort. My overalls have a train appliqué on the bib pocket 😉

Fuck you, you bastard Putin. You did this to someone's mind, you utter shit.

If you are choosing things for yourself, clothes, wine, shoes, cider, whatever, you are choosing it for yourself, so it is your taste that matters. If people do not like what *you* choose for *yourself*, that's *their* problem and you do not have to give a tinker's cuss!

To someone who likes purple shoes?! Surely thou kiddest?

Davy Strange @elitistreview.com · 17/09/2026

I have just bought these fantastic shoes. I will wear them with my purple cord jacket and purple velvet trousers. I will have to beat off all the people who lustfully throw themselves at me!

It has been 15-odd years since I last visited #Jersey. Then you could have excellent seafood if you bought it and cooked it yourself. Now it seems there are an abundance of restaurants that can cook Jersey's first-rate seafood with skill and style - hooray!

Davy Strange @elitistreview.com · 07/09/2026

Hooray for booze! I am glad other people agree there should be more of it!

For my phone to rate my sleep I need to sleep at least six hours a night for six consecutive nights. I am still waiting for my phone to rate my sleep. I got my phone in March. I feel awful.

I have heard vintage reports from a few friends in France: yields are 1/2-to-1/3 what they would normally expect. This is going to sink so many wine growers, it's terrible. I urge you all to support our friends in the vineyards by buying as much wine as possible!

It is not going to be long until this number reaches 1.5m. Shocking, a lost generation, and a scarred populace. Certainly, in noble Ukraine too.

@humanleon.bsky.social is particularly pleased with that post. As well he might be, I wrote 55% of it.

Elitistreview.com is 21-years-old today - it is finally old enough to be incarcerated in an adult prison! There is no anniversary post today, I'm afraid, but on Monday morning at 08:40 BST there will be a post from @humanleon.bsky.social and me reviewing a stack of Ridge wines from 2013 and before.

Ok, that's true, some boozers are filthy. But the Guinness that turns up in each boozer is exactly the same dead, sterile horribleness.

Davy Strange @elitistreview.com · 26/05/2026

I do not understand why people talk about the Guinness being good at particular boozers - it is the same bleeding stuff everywhere! Guinness is a dead, homogeneous, soulless drink.

Jancis Robinson was incredibly rude about two Wintonian MW's in her column today. I've had the misfortune not to have avoided going to dinner with the cheap, talentless couple. I think I was ruder, but not in an International newspaper.

I had a couple of hopes for this Government, I didn't expect much, but I had a couple of hopes. What have they done? Boosted public sector pay and passed a load on illiberal old Conservative bills.

Labour's whole pitch at the general election was, basically, "We're not the Tories." Turns out Kier Starmer is almost as an unprincipled shit as Boris Johnson.
