45 minutes left before I go and get fish & chips. Then a train to the airport. Then an aeroplane to Spain.

Flashback to this muppet sharing the partial solar eclipse with people on Blackheath

The start of the eclipse. There’s a lovely prominence on the left as well.

You can just make out the lens flare of the eclipse at 11 o’clock by the actual sun.

I am under absolutely no illusions that in an actual zombie or doomsday/armageddon situation, that I have virtually no survival skills worth a damn.

I have a fun game: next time you watch a film or TV show, write down what it is when a character does something you can’t do. Not superhero stuff, regular stuff; change a plug, pick a lock, change a car tyre, etc. Then make a pledge to learn that skill.

What if ghosts are real, but because the earth is moving around the sun, and the sun is orb the galaxy, there’s just a stream of stranded spectres floating forever in space.

I’m almost £400 in credit on my energy account and they still put my direct debit up and refuse to lower it. Seriously tempted to cancel it with the bank and renegotiate it from scratch.

If you target RNLI volunteers, I hope you die in a freak yachting accident. Not even at sea, just a random yacht falls on you in the middle of the high street.

Now that Piddington has left the UK, are we going to set up passport controls on all roads in and out of the village, trade checks, tariffs, import and export duties and strict border controls?
