Nice! It’s going to need to really pull the stops out to beat Bristol, which he absolutely loved.

See also: The Carpenters. The “If I were a Carpenter” covers album was immensely cool.

Actually you could be onto something there as I was 45 minutes delayed back to Leeds last night 🙄

Well that’s good to know. Wish that was better explained. Like “don’t worry, you don’t have to change seats.”
BTW was in Brizzle yesterday for the university open day. Saw this down a side street 👌👌

I don’t know. I hope so, but yesterday I saw one lad trying to turf out another and they both presented their tickets for the same coach and seat and looking confused. Plus cross-country digital seat reservations are so hard to parse when peering at the little screens on the baggage shelf.

Mario Kart: lots of settings (auto steering etc) so you can get the hang of it.
Legend of Zelda: nice and hand holdy, and as easy or hard as you want to make it. Solitary game, big open world to explore.
Plus Nintendo stuff holds its value so you can sell it on if it doesn’t work out.

Well it’s a good comparison if he means everyone just needs to go for a bit of a walk while things cool down.

Gay marriage. Abortions. Disability and race discrimination. Any number of other progressive laws, a future (say, Reform) government could seek to dismiss on the basis they have a legal precedent. This is why they care about this so much! It’s a legal magic wand with a universal adapter.

People who can easily draw a distinction between this two things are the kind of people for whom a morning suit is still a thing.

If no one did the old “Do you know the piano’s on my foot?” gag, I’ll be very disappointed.

Yeah, look at how appalled they were when they found out how much the Jeremy video cost, and then just stopped having videos like that made. And using their position to take on Ticketmaster. Genuinely sound blokes.

Ooof, that’s exactly it.

I think we see some of that when people see the weird errors that gen AI can make (and the humanising euphemisms like “hallucinate” that are used), but also not to question when things appear to “just work”, why that’s happening, when we see it making mistakes elsewhere all the time.
