Just out of interest, how exactly does one walk like a bat and what are the benefits of doing so?

A fine man. We all took great joy from the part of him he shared with us. Farewell to your loved one 🙏🏻

To be fair, this headline is from an article in the fashion section. The Guardian published a full review of Kendrick's half-time show, in which the writer makes comments on the same thing you mentioned... www.theguardian.com/music/2025/f...

As with your recommendation of Erdinger-quaffing biathletes, a brief Google for research purposes has revealed yet another impressive set of pins. Doing the Lord's work you are, Mrs L 🙏

There's a place just outside Gloucestershire called RAF Defford, which has lots of satellite dishes and big space balls so you might want to look there first.

I've just started watching the first series - absolutely loving it. It's like a mix of The Stanley Parable and a Philip K Dick story. Full marks to all of the cast and production crew.

Just googled female biathletes for research purposes and Holy Mary there's some cracking quads.

My ex-wife kept one in a box in her wardrobe and one of her twin boys found it; naturally he asked what it was. She said it was a back massager. He ran off with it, found his brother and started mucking about, as 7yr old boys do. Being a nurse, immune to embarrassment, she found it hilarious.

If you want to slow your performance down even more then get an Nvidia GPU and install Linux.

I'm laying off the booze for a while but I had an Erdinger 0% with my sausage casserole and I was pleasantly surprised.

It's like the "Two Girls One Cup" video - you'll have a quick look to see what the fuss is about then 100% wish you hadn't.

My dad, who is a gentle, kind hearted West Country man, likes Jim Davidson and Nigel Farage. As a Guardian reading liberal, I can't get my head around it.

Controversially, I'm going with Les liking Adams but not liking Chisholm.

You've clearly chosen "not", but Neal A. Maxwell thinks that's totally fine so it's all good mate 👍

I'm hoping that the dog's name is Kafka.

Andrew Sachs aka Manuel from Fawlty Towers opened the school fete once - naturally he said "Que?" quite often. Also I went to school with Englebert Humperdink's son; "The Hump" came to sports day once, if that counts...

I used to have a great time at the soft play. Coffee. Sofa. Guardian Cryptic. Say "yes" to every request. Let them crack on.

When I was a kid we went on a camping holiday in France. My dad convinced me that the French for milk was "le moo-juice" and prompted me to ask for some at the campsite shop. The shopkeeper thought it was the funniest thing he'd ever heard.

I had a dream I was eating a huge marshmallow. When I woke up my pillow had gone. #dadjoke

To be fair, their version of "I Want A Job In A Lollipop Factory" was an absolute banger.

In other adhd news, I gave my mum her present wrapped in the carrier bag.

It'll probably be dark by the time you get there anyway.

My suggestion to test the theory would be to get on a plane to Buenos Aires and check them there. Hope this helps.

As a rural West Country boy, I approve of the view and commiserate your phone signal 🌳

Having been married twice, I'd mark that down as a win!

In Victorian times a pose like that would've prompted incredulous gasps and, in all honesty, polite society would've shunned you.

I had my very first tablet today and decided to write some notes about the experience which a) I managed, unbelievably, to update throughout the day and b) included the lines "'I' have gone quiet" and "I wonder if this is how normal people feel all of the time"

I like the idea of day drinking but It always ends up with me napping at 5pm

It's the same old story: you start with a hit of Mint, then try some Ubuntu and before you know it you're wandering the streets begging for Arch repos...
