Oh, surely it can't be that complex: let's check the chords online.... oh.

Lots of guitar chords. Possibly all of them.

Yesterday evening I spent an hour unclogging drains to help neighbours avoid flooding after all the rain, and then our team won the quiz night. At my age, you take the wins where you can.

Well, I don't have a website (I'm not that active a photographer) but here's a picture of our cats I just took:

Two cats in a garden, cautiously sniffing each other. The lawn is a parched brown colour because apparently people hate Ed Miliband.

As Sam Neill films go, The Dish is small fry. But it's a delight: a simple story told well, gentle humour and great characters. Sam brings all his skills and charm - even in dodgy "old man" make up. It works because everyone involved takes it seriously: there's no sense of "will this do?"

It's quite plausible that a "Lennon who quit the Beatles just before the big time" would have ended up like this. And it does the subtle but hard work of showing how a Paul-only dominated Beatles could have turned out. Great work all round. @quantick.bsky.social et al.

My preferred version is the one that appeared inexplicably on my TV a while back. Frankly the only way to improve Escape to Victory would be to add Jackie Chan to it.

Good shout, and you've got to love a menu like this:

A menu of items at an online retailer. The heading is cable, leads and connectors. Underneath, the items are: connectors, leads, cable and adaptors.

We all have to accept that this would be the greatest film of all time.

A screenshot of a TV, showing the panel where you can choose from several films. The film highlighted is Jackie Chan's First Strike, but the image behind it is from the poster of Escape to Victory. We wish, we all dearly wish, that this was a real film.

Well, I never expected to see such language in a word puzzle, especially one called Square Words.

The solution to a Squareword puzzle. One of the correct words is ARSES.

There's a great local group that rents out DIY and gardening stuff and this page from their web catalogue looks like it is focused on providing kit for local serial killers.

This prompted me to ponder the use of "swimming baths" and when "swimming pool" became more popular. Well, even by 1972 "baths" was not in wide use. Except in clips like this, I guess.

A line graph showing the relative popularity of "swimming baths" and "swimming pool" - it shows that pool has been more popular since the 1930s.
