Woken by a pair of magpies doing *something* outside the window. Bastards.

Lovely interview with a lovely bloke. Also, the best guest speaker we had at any Woodkirk High School Speech Day 1989-1995. @thesquareball.net #lufc youtu.be/r6W1YNf5MTQ

Is there nothing he cannot do - except pay private school fees?

Stood in Eason's trying to remember the podcast where I heard about a very interesting sounding book, and drawing blanks all round. I'd blame ageing, but I've been like this for years.
