TV show idea: Charlie Chalk and Alphonse Cheese are 2 detectives from totally different backgrounds who work together. They really don't get on but, even tho they're so different, they gradually bond in order to solve crimes (but have NOTHING in common)
Title: Charlie & Alphonse

@PulpLibrarian I used to spend ages attempting to draw triffids when I was a kid, based on the description in the book (they were never quite so...hairy though...)

@FondOfBeetles I remember sharing a room above a pub (about 30y ago...) with a couple of mates, after one of the mates' sister's wedding. Said mate had to get up in the night to be sick, in the only available place: a sink.
In the morning he had to poke the chunks down with a toothbrush handle!

@dieworkwear All the Henry VIII's in the replies, boasting about the size and shapeliness of their calves! 😆

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

Right...where do I collect my fiver?

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

I bet you a fiver they can't

@AR_Yngve @PulpLibrarian When I saw this post, I immediately thought "That's the wrong space ship!"
I read this as a child, and can remember absolutely nothing about it...apart from the rocket design on the cover of the edition my dad owned

@LordFlymo @virginmedia And the way they use a very specific time ('12:10') to imply they actually know exactly when it will be fixed...🙄

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

@virginmedia So after 5 days of no WiFi and intermittent TV - and the 'estimated fix time' changing every day - you're now telling us that it won't be fixed until Monday!? (Yeah, right!) Is it not important enough to work on over the weekend?

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

It would also be useful to get some actual 'text updates' - rather than having to track an obviously random, constantly moving, 'fix time' - and will you be reimbursing the money spent on phone data that my family has had to use (for work, school etc) over the week?

@sianharries_ Trying on a suit of armour at an event at Hever Castle - remembering the cardboard armour that my dad had spent days making me, for a fancy-dress party as a kid - and thinking "I can't wait to tell Dad about this!" 2 weeks after he'd died.

@Herring1967 @benpartridge @beefanddairy I hadn't heard of @benpartridge before the latest RHLSTP but I will now definitely be checking out his stuff - as I don't think I've laughed as much, listening to a podcast, as I did to his 'dead fox' story! 🤣

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

@LScamilton @iainlee Clarkson with Noel Fielding...?

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

Wait…can we not block people on Twitter/X anymore…?

@guardian Did they die on porpoise?

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

@MooseAllain Not *quite* the same, but I thought this tweet of mine - from last year - was fairly amusing (nobody else did...) https://t.co/r6UivRFcJ0

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

Wow…that really shows the advancement in technology, over the last few decades. iPads were MASSIVE back in 1926!

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

@ViolaAppleton6 @andydw @leighalexander Hmm...where is your husband from? I live in London and we've always had 'flant day' 🤔

[Alan Hunt @VegetableLamb]

@maitlis I saw a clip of Trump on the TV news this morning and thought "Haha...wouldn't it be funny if the MAGA nut-jobs started wearing bandages on their ears!" 🤦‍♂️

@PulpLibrarian Eddie Large, moonlighting there!
