I presume by now everyone's seen this clip of Alesha Dixon absolutely shelling it with DJ AG? Yes? No? www.instagram.com/p/DLAnD8eMcyn/

Never much of a fan of his baroque tongue-in-cheekery, but this got me. A masterpiece of chutzpah.

Trying to imagine the absolute, irreversible destruction of all culture, the only circumstance where I'd listen to Roman Kemp and Tom Grennan's You About? podcast.

I think it's nothing short of miraculous what the Wondermints did for Brian in the last musically active decades of his life. They were a healing force. They rejuvenated him. The ultimate banishment of any lingering Landy demons.

Missed Brian Wilson at Glastonbury because my first daughter was selfish enough to be due a week later. Rest assured, I'd have tipped that bloke off his surfboard.

Tomorrow I'm taking my daughter to an open day at Bristol University, my alma mater. Help me not be entirely tragic about this.

It was our (apparently) porcelain wedding anniversary this week so I gave this CD to me. Bought the cassette when I was an over-sophisticated 17-year-old immediately prior to the baggy regression. Anyway, I like it again now.

Dad interested in WWII? Tanks, aircraft, derring-do? Shelves stuffed with books about a MEATGRINDER or HELL AT various locations? Do you also suspect his deleted web browser history hides saucy secrets? Why, I have the ideal Father's Day gift for you! www.weidenfeldandnicolson.co.uk/titles/luke-...

Buying/selling a house for the first time in nearly 18 years. IT'S NOT GOT ANY QUICKER, HAS IT? (Apologies to anyone who's not been lucky enough to join the property carousel).

Bought this on cassette with the £5 reward I got for thwarting a robbery near the outdoor swimming pool. The cassette got chewed up and so did its replacement so I reluctantly went with the vinyl. Quite the saga, you'll agree.

Lot of people rightly talking about his stellar albums but this has to be one of THE all timer compilations, never has “Greatest Hits” been so well earned
