Remembering the time I saw Pope Francis doing the crossword on the tube.
A man who superficially resembles Pope Francis doing the crossword on the tube, the effect is aided because he’s wearing a white shirt done up to the top.

When you ask the French finance minister to help you back your car into a space.
Cropped BBC news story preview reading 'Come all the way' back with the French Finance minister gesticulating in such a manner that he looks like he's helping you back your car up.

If only there were a term for this analogy.
Paragraph from Putin interview: He drew the analogy of a gun sitting on a theatre stage - if it was hanging there at the start of the show, it would certainly be fired at the end.

Funny/not funny that he's a senile racist grandad and everyone has to just go along with it.
US President Donald Trump tells reporters that the men arrested near
RAF Fairford on Sunday were "looking to do big damage".
"We had them under investigation. They were looking to do big damage to our fort, and working with the British worked out great," he says.
"It may have been Scotland Yard, I don't know. We worked with a lot of them. We had them under view for a long time, and we got them.
"It was fantastic. Working with Britain, it was an amazing

The visitors should stay still and the tapestry should move round on a loop, like the background of a Scooby Doo cartoon. There you go British Museum, little bit of out-of-the-box thinking and the problem is solved.
Visitors are being allowed into the sold-out exhibit in groups every 40 minutes and told to keep moving along the 68m (230ft) work in one direction.
But people stopping to take photographs along the way was restricting that flow and delaying later visitors.

Though he looked different as the 'angry young man' playwright of Sparrers Can't Sing (1960). Less like Blakey and more like he's preparing a jangle-pop EP for Sarah Records.

I’m generally a fan of the evocative art and photograph selection on the modern Penguin Maigrets, so this is an odd choice to go with a street photograph of a bloke who looks like Maigret/Simenon.
