I usually hate reading the comments on twitter but "The Andrew formerly known as Prince" comment did make me chuckle.

I think VATs actually only 5% on domestic energy bills so cutting it will have even less impact than you think. Obviously it will help a bit but not by very fucking much.

There's 2 options available for viewing as per below... click the one thats not highlighted and you'll be back to normal.

I'm planning on getting some of these as christmas pressies for my glastonbury friends... will vary the booze depending on the recipients festival drink of choice. I'll probably also get some mugs and coasters made using photos taken at the festival. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/927781738/muddy-welly-thatchers-gold-cider-keyring?ref=shop_home_recs_3

I need one of these in my life!

Love Ozzy and this is incentive enough to finally read his autobiography. 6ab3add7cd9fb63bdf78e2b93929a2f2_1.mp4

I've got a 2 year old and as a keepsake every year I do a little video with photos of her and music over the top. For the first one I had Magnificent (She Says) by Elbow though this was never released as a single so that's not much help. As Maurice says though you could be painting yourself into a corner by choosing 7" singles. You may be better off just buying a box that holds 50 albums instead? I think I'm gonna follow suit anyway so thanks for the suggestion.

I'm not Starmers biggest fan but I did like the "My dad was a toolmaker, although in a way so was Boris Johnson’s" line.

I've despatched Squid Game and Alice in Borderline over the past couple of days and have loved both of them. Not something I would normally try but saw the recomendations on here so thought I'd give them a go .. gonna try Sweet Home next as that is apparently similar.

Such sad news about Sean Lock. 😪

20000 to be offered asylum over 5 years, 5000 in the first in a country of 38 million. That seems sufficient for a 'big hearted nation' eh Dominic you massive hemorrhoid. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58250211

All fair points... the US and Germany are both worse on carbon emissions in relation to population then China. The article I got the image from though was discussing Chinas increase in emissions... it was a moving bar chart thingy but I couldn't work out how to insert the fucker (link to article below). I thought it was an interesting way of showing how emissions had changed over the years by country and found it worrying that Chinas carbon emissions had more than trebled in the past 20 years from 914 to 2776 million tonnes. While in the UK we had managed to reduce ours from 155 to 101 which is diddly squat and again doesn't factor in our much smaller population. Anyway I know next to nowt about this issue really... just think we're bolloxed whatever we do. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-57483492

US and China have the same emissions as the next 30 countries combined so it does feel like we're pissing in the wind a bit (UK was 101 million tonnes in 2019). That's not to say we shouldn't do anything but as Stevie says we need the bigger boys to play ball to give us a fighting chance.

The biggest question to me about that tweet is what year was the fucker born... 74 or 76? Pick a year and stick with it. Things like that bother me for reasons I don't understand.

Just seen this which I thought was interesting... an interactive map of glastonbury over the years. Blurb below: https://www.vam.ac.uk/articles/mapping-glastonbury The V&A is home to the Glastonbury Festival Archive, an extraordinary collection of objects, sounds, sights and memories that encapsulate Glastonbury Festival. To open up the archive and bring it to life, we have collaborated with digital agency We Are Freak to develop a fully immersive and interactive map of the Festival. Explore the organic growth of Glastonbury Festival through five decades, from the 1970's until today, and discover how the landscape of the Festival has evolved over time and inspired scenography and creativity. The map, created by referencing the real topography of Worthy Farm and its surrounding area, is presented as a 3D experience. Double-click on the map and be transported down into the Festival site where you can move around and discover each distinct area from the Pyramid Stage and the Green fields, to the Park and beyond. Click on hundreds of floating 'nodes' dotted around the festival to access an incredible collection of objects, photographs, memories, soundscapes and films clips from the V&A's Glastonbury Festival Archive.
