I rather like the middle 8. Lost Weekend was never one of favourites to be fair. Rumour has it that it isn’t one of Lloyd’s either.

As a Smoggie - this examination is LONG overdue. It’s coming to something when we have to rely on Private Eye to keep corruption in the spotlight and calling for accountability.

Not being able to indicate his mood is probably a key thing that other dogs pick up on. Couple with the anxiety and the pheromones as you say 😢 I’m sure he will at least try and mingle for the four days. Even though it’ll feel like four weeks for you!

Shoplifters queuing up to be frisked? 🤣

Oh bless him. Do you think he intimidates other dogs?

Repost with a picture with your pets! We are employed by Rango - he’s 15 years old and orange. He tolerates other people but is picky about whom he deigns to grace with his presence when we have friends round. He’s very conversational. We’re never left in any doubt as to what his requirements are.

A tranquil sunrise breaks over the overcast horizon, casting a faint glow across the calm, undisturbed surface of the sea.

Oh heck! Four days? I think when pets get to a certain age, like people, they get stuck in their ways. If he cant be arsed with other dogs, he cant be arsed with other dogs. Rango is the same, but with people. He’ll quite happily sod off upstairs until any “stranger danger” has vacated the house.

He is SO dashing. Bless him.

No. And nobody ever opens a new box of pills without it opening at the end with the clinical guidelines wrapped around the pills. It never happens.

I had a fantastic grey marl t-shirt with the orange DJ Culture logo across the front. Can we have a reissue please?

Ah, those delicious mincemeat omelettes….

I always keep a bottle in the kitchen to substitute for cooking wine! LOL

I tend to use Noilly Prat as the vermouth component.

Sadly, no mugs available at the shop….. I’ve always wanted a cake stand in the Jadeite. The beakers are lovely. www.mosserglass.com/collections/...

I first saw that film when I was a teenager; haunted me. Didn’t realise there was a show based on it.

I’m convinced that if I dropped down dead, with nobody to find me for a few weeks, Rango would tuck in without even thinking twice about it. I mean, seriously, this is his “feral” expression!

The ABBA guide to Stockholm comes in handy.

Ah, the ABBA bench. We know it well. 🥰

Some people claim to be fans of ABBA. I have their portrait over the mantelpiece in the front room.

Sarah Whine will be dining out on this for decades to come.

There’s a raft of virtually interchangeable Asda Charts botherers to choose from.

Never bought an Ed Sheeran record. Never would. He’s musical wallpaper.

They were all over Gozo when we were there last month. Did make me smile. And there were a lot of well fed looking cats and armies of people feeding the feral ones late at night. Bless em.

I cooked a Xmas cake today as well. Not got around to the pudding yet.

I was 7 when it was released. I still have the cassette and I still have the cassette player.

I’m the classic example of an only child as well. 😊

This song has been the tune in my head, first thing in the morning, literally every day since the album came out. youtu.be/1tGKAN9X4iI?...

The tranquil sea remains calm under a vast, cloud-dappled sky, creating a serene atmosphere on this cool, quiet morning.

That’s a delightful turn of phrase there. Perfectly captures that moment when you know you look a proper state and hope nobody’s watching.

I love the sparse new orchestration and the fact you’ve turned the electronics up, when compared to the Prom performance. It’s glorious. Long overdue.

I did enjoy the Graham Norton show just now….. roll on season 2 of MurderBot. 😊

There’s an image I’m not going to get out of my head this year…..

Dido Harding should stick to riding horses. Whilst sitting on the back of a horse she can’t damage anything.

I do. That’s a bygone era.

That’s a work of beauty! I spy a fair few of my favourites.

Closing theme music briefly fades, voice over says, “And you’ll be pleased to know that Terry and June, return for a new series, next year”.

The mind boggles as to what Jenrick would find acceptable in someone “Culturally English”. It’s the LAST thing I identify as. The very last. Why? Because I know what the inside of a book looks like. Unlike Robert Jenrick.
