@Robin_Askwith My Dad (6ft 3) and my Uncle Stan (not anywhere near 6ft 3) used to do a mime in costume to whispering grass at family parties a very long time ago. This 'anniversary' fills me with joy for the memory of both of them and the marvellous Windsor Davies.

@newsandpics ..those accounts are not filed yet when I last looked. So check the accounting policies when that happens. I think the year end is January, so filing date by end of October 26.

@newsandpics There was a post a while ago where Dan Neidle stated that he had 'hired in' lawyers from GLP. When I questioned him on whether this constituted a 'trade' (subject to tax) as their stated policy was not for profit, he inferred that perhaps their next accounts might be different..

@GoodLawProject Are you assigning the blame in advance of a coroner's inquest?

Trying to influence an outcome? All with a magic 'donate' button emblazoned across your site.

And on the other hand you are happy target a female barrister for saying a man cannot be a woman?

@leng_cath The smugness screams from the images.

The finger pointing, the folded arms, the clasped hands.

They pronounce on the actions of others without consequence. Judge and jury.

They add no value to anything.

@LissaKEvans @JamesAHogg2 One imagines that BB is the kind of person actually deserving of wonderful adjectives.

@TavernFootball Was at MS for the Walsall Reading play off final in 2001. Loved the place, great atmosphere, great city.

PS I've never seen a team more heart broken than Reading when we went 3-2 up. And then they went to the premier league inside 6 years!!

@BarbaraRich_law @rnlh228 We were on a jolly big ship in the Med, sailing towards Valletta. The moon got to about 25% coverage, and then alas, the sun set! I think had we been 10 miles further west, then it might have been perfect.

@Baddiel There's a girl in 3c
With a wart on her knee
And a pimple upon her behind
I gave her 3p, and she showed it to me.
PS wonder what she'd do for a quid

Goodies Christmas Annual - 1970 something

@PoliticalPics Is there actually a photo of him anywhere which doesn’t scream smugness?

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@bbclaurak Which election did he win???

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@PolitlcsUK Optics are awful on this. Some MP from Plymouth just posted he was on his way to Manchester at 10.15 this morning.

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@LukePollard Optics on this are awful.

Plymouth to London is a long way. Fine. That is where your job is.

And now you're off to Manchester, where your job isn't.

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@PolitlcsUK How about a wfh Monday?

Or tiktok Tuesday?

@MrJamesMay On a boat at the buffet, they placed faggots in gravy next to the biryani, and I created the ultimate Asian/Black Country food fusion. Uncomplicated logistics and a magnificent outcome.

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@mcdermottkc_ @currys Isn't it a last man standing thing - only dedicated 'reputable' name left on the high street (in the retail park). Whilst people have moved online, I wouldn't buy an appliance of note without looking in the flesh. So you go to Currys.

Ditto Next/M&S/Waterstones.

@andyburnham Germans did this after covid. On all transport - bus/trams/trains. 40 odd Euros a month (now 63).

Just back from a trip to Berlin. Car traffic on city centre roads is noticeably minimal. Everyone uses public transport.

Think bigger.

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@indieretailgirl Chap on a mission. Total respect.

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@PoliticalPics He reminds of that chap in Game of Thrones. Baelish.

When he opens his mouth, all I hear is smugness.

[michael dawes @michaelwdawes]

@primarily_prog Morning Phil,

Hope you have a fantastic trip to Italy this weekend. In Berlin, they managed to sneak in one of your favourites. Hope they keep it in, just for you.
