Fucking hell, Gene Hackman

Put quite simply, outside of family Henry Kelly is probably the single biggest reason why I am the way I am. Seeing, from a very early age, an Irish man on British TV, hosting a pan-European quiz, crystallized something in me I've tried to run with ever since. He was such a versatile talent. RIP

That's me back from the Round Britain Qastle. To paraphrase Game of Thrones: You either win RBQ, or you have a lovely time.

Went to a Brazilian steakhouse for lunch - if @newkiedookie.bsky.social and Joelinton say it's good then I'm there! May never need to eat again l: the food came quicker than I could photograph it, so here's an artist's impression instead.

I'm on my way to the highlight of my year - Round Britain Quiz recording! I always love the process of stagecoaching it down prior, and the view rather justifies that instinct...

All my adult life has been centreground politicians never shutting up about how "people are afraid to speak about immigration". And while they wang on about the need to not look down on "legitimate concerns", these hateful goblins get stronger (and will never hate those parties any less).

Very cool that political writers nowadays have no idea 1) who FDR was 2) he was the hoorin origin of Presidents having a first 100 Days. God, I despair.

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

Last night we ended up drinking Special Brew with Sean Dyche in a sports bar, as several screens showed the Merseyside derby. I think it's much funnier not to elaborate further.
