Today is Aortic Dissection Awareness Day. Know the signs. Sudden, severe chest, back or abdominal pain is a typical symptom of aortic dissection. But some cases are painless or present in unexpected ways. Sometimes the only signs are neurological, such as sudden weakness or collapse.

To tie in with the 300th anniversary of Gulliver’s Travels, I ranked film giants! My self-imposed rules: must be more or less humanoid-shaped & no giant gorillas or lizards. (The subs cut out the word "bollocks" & also described the Harry Potter film as "standout". But do I care? Not really.)

People are amazed when I tell them how unloved the Beatles were in 70s Liverpool. This terrific long read from @grantmcphee.bsky.social explains it all.

At the Cavern reopening in July 1966 young women parade outside the venue waving banners proclaiming “Beatles Are Dead, Seftons Are Great” and “Where Are The Beatles Today? We Don’t Need Them - Stay In London”. Yes, I would like this image on a t-shirt.

Early Noughties, pre-Springwatch, Bill presented the annual short-lived @mojomagazine.bsky.social Pub Quiz. It was in a dark period of his life, battling depression, but he was great; funny, acerbic, steeped in weird rock lore. A short gig but his daughter Rosie later told us he loved doing it.
