We've got workmen at the house today and I swear I thought the customary response to "can I get you anything?" was "no thanks mate" not "Yeah a lobster fkin dinner would be lovely".

Anybody know anybody that wants to pay for a group of 40+yo UK skateboarders to go to Finland for a week, and film them skateboarding? Could be a cool documentary? Will cost about £3k. #sponsorship #skateboarding #yolo

Back in the real world, Gervais has encouraged the idea that people who dislike Alley Cats are simply 'offended'.

If you are worried about Benefit Fraud £0.5bn but not Government Corruption £219bn. Immigration £2bn but not Tax Havens £150bn. Junior Doctors pay rises £1.3bn but not Bankers tax cuts £7.3bn. You‘re buying their lies.

A “grain” of salt. TIL: 😮 “In the old-fashioned English units of weight, a grain weighs approximately 65 mg, which is about how much table salt a person might pick up between the fingers as a pinch.”
