That's very kind. IIRC from a boxing day walk in 2019, just before the world fell apart

The other deep memory I have is arriving in Cherbourg and as you drove off the ferry a man with a big cool bag would hand you a glass bottle of Orangina through your open window. France was a proper country back then

I grew up in Bournemouth so inevitably went camping in Brittany every summer on the Barfleur. Will never forget the mad rush between all the families too tight to pay for a cabin to set up their sleeping bags at the bottom of the stairwell

I think with satirising a type of white guy appropriating black culture the jokes were always veering close to just laughing at black culture itself, and by the millionth playground repetition of catchphrases any subtlety had long evaporated

What always gets me is how many of the abandoned shops still have so much stuff in them, eh the soft play cafe by the M&S. A few of them have some really solid looking shelving I'd happily give a new home to

I mean as the report says in some age groups in the UK 4% are now diagnosed as autistic when most studies would put expected prevalence at 1-2%. It seems a valid question to ask!

That sounds good enough

They also have huge boxes of the own brand bottled pilsner in for a very good price. I finally tried one of their own brand wheat beers recently and thought it was good too

Peregrine falcon fan @nrgsrhc.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
Looks like they have a mixed box of 12 bottles for £25 which isn't really much use for perfect angels who cycle to the supermarket

Incredible lol. Do they have any good German beers in at least?

I am genuinely surprised any of these people have enough friends to host a dinner party. Perhaps this is all neurotic and they're all getting worked up about something which will never happen

The dreadful decline of hosting at home: ‘I feel shame any time a friend comes over’
It used to be quite normal to pop next door for a coffee or invite friends over for dinner. But not any more. What’s behind this change – and just how damaging is it?

The English being a nation of animal lovers is one of the most egregious lies we tell about ourselves so unsurprising perhaps we are retreating into this now

I grew up in Dorset so it does pain me slightly to admit a preference for Herefordshire cider, but I did the golden valley pilgrimage a couple of years ago and drank a lot of it

There was briefly a place in Cambridge before COVID that served unpasteurised Pilsner Urquell in massive copper tanks, was absolutely incredible but clearly a total money pit

Just over 4 hours to Truro from Paddington and then a 20 minute train from there. Honestly such a good place for eating and boozing

If you ever go to Falmouth the brewery run a very casual small plate seafood and 2/3rd pint place which is incredible

I saw them in 2016 in Bristol by accident having never heard them which was incredible. I then listened to this album on repeat for weeks and it completely rewired my spotify algorithm for the better
