Aside from generally agreeing with Alan Bennett about tv (its mostly shit) and Family Guy (he loves it), how cool is this...


"However Radio 4 is to air Bennett?s first drama to premiere on radio. Denmark Hill, a modern day take on Hamlet set in South London, was adapted from an unproduced screenplay written 20 years ago and discovered in Bennett?s archives."

Of course it's a well known fact that Claudius was a top centre forward in his day second only to Edgar Kail as the King of Denmark (Hill).


Polonius was an excellent goalkeeper often compared to World Cup winner Gordan Banks.


And Polonius, Luartes, Fortinbras and Horatio are often cited as the first midfield diamond.

So attempted a facebook cull this morning, convinced that it should really be about sharing stuff with actual friends and family rather than a disparate trail of old school aquaintances and colleagues from Companies past.

You know, peoiple you might actually meet in real life at some point and might do stuff like care about and have that feeling reciprocated.


I managed 8. rubbish!

    • The end of a decade and a half of gaslighting, they must be exhausted. Oh boy, are we going to hear some coercive BS in the next 6 weeks. For some reason they don’t seem to be boasting about how well we are doing in education, crime and policing, fishing, agriculture, health, prisons, trade, trade agreements, immigration, transportation, utilities (including water), amongst other things. They seem to be focussing on exporting individual ‘illegal’ immigrants to Africa for more than it costs to take a journey into space. And rainbow-coloured lanyards for use within the civil service. I wonder why?🤔    
    • If you have a campervan (windows all round, seats in) they’re treated just like cars - come unannounced as often as you need. So I think it’s a way to avoid commercial interests’ abuse of the service. Imagine if you provided a local clearance service, you could empty peoples gardens and houses and take it straight to the dump and have nothing to pay. 
    • Gutted to miss out on the title in the end and fall down to fourth at the last! Thanks for running it - took me a while to get to grips with the format but came on strong in final few months. Look forward to next season!   JamesM
    • If you can access Facebook, there are many groups on there for different things. it may be helpful searching for groups on there. i joined a few groups on there myself which helped me with my health issues. it was these groups that made me realise I wasn’t the only one suffering with side effects & some women were worse off than me. hope that helps
