By day, a boring IT bloke. By night, a boring father of two & husband of one. Fan of history, science, books and cricket. Brass band cornet player. Left of centre, skeptic and humanist. I tend to tweet in the bath... like a budgie.

It's been called a tapestry since at least the 15th Century. I hate this wokism that wants to rename it an embroidery!

Remember not to be tempted to look directly at the Sun today. Even if it's obscured it can be highly damaging. In fact, not just the Sun, avoid all Murdoch papers.

PERSON OF THE DAY. 18 June 1942. James Paul McCartney was born in Walton Hospital, Liverpool. As a member of The Beatles and during his successful solo career he’s the best selling recording artist and songwriter of all time.

If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years — to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting around the time that neanderthals went extinct.

A government that was serious about economic growth would scrap the requirement for employers to pay workers anything at all. Wage costs are a huge burden on business and an unjustifiable disincentive for wealth creators.

Farage is “Deeply worried that Russian spies leaked details”. If it was all above board then it wouldn’t matter if it was leaked. I’m deeply worried that he’s a grifter and a crook. His very shady financial arrangements seem to confirm it.

Putting aside that it’s a waste of time and parents money, it does provide supermarkets with an opportunity to sell overpriced polyester costumes of film characters during that tricky seasonal slump between Christmas and Easter.

People in the US really don't know the only reason Iran has a religious theocracy is that the US overthrew the democratically elected gov't in Iran, and installed the brutal Shah, because they wanted to control their own oil ? Really ????

Elvis’s sexual relationship with 14 year old Priscilla, where he later became a controlling and violent husband who had several affairs, has parallels with Trump. They were both mainly composed of burgers. He did do his military service though, so perhaps is something to which Trump should aspire.

Starmer’s position is entirely consistent with what he wrote about Iraq in 2003, a fact of enormous inconvenience to just about everybody currently criticising it. Happily for them, just like the entire bloody Chilcot Inquiry it is apparently very easy to ignore.
