Mariella Frostrop is really unbelievably snobbish about horror. No concept of subtext.

The gentrification of live music is wild. In the 90s/2000s, I paid roughly £15 quid to see Travis, never paid more than £25 to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers between the 95-2005 ish. Now it's 3x that for current bands. For what? Not inflation that's for sure. Some one album wonders are £100+!

Okay, concepts rarely go production, but Jaguar describing this using the cliche "uncompromising" is just embarrassing. A totally clueless design direction. Who is this car actually for? What purpose will it serve? They clearly don't know, and ultimately this could kill the Jaguar brand.

Broadcasters are obsessed with putting emotive music and poetry to rugby trails, painting a picture of honour, chivalry, dignity. Rugby players, meanwhile, drink piss and beer out their mates shoes, dare each other to eat slugs, teabag other for pranks and do so while being immensely posh. Go figure

I've been here for a wee while now and an advocate to anyone who'll listen, but over the past few days the experience has been even better. Suppose I have to thank Trump and Elon for something... Other than that they can feck right off. 😀

Ben Doak absolutely exceptional tonight. Christie, McLean and Hanley looked amateurish at times. Craig Gordon though? What a phenomenal professional. At his age, reflexes that rival any keeper in the world. Wow. He just continues to be an inspiration.

I've just learned that The Onion has bought Infowars. 'Whaaa?' you might say. But read the most brilliant editorial I've ever read on an acquisition and you'll soon be whooping with joy. theonion.com/heres-why-i-...

Love him or hate him, Max Verstappen remains the most talented driver on the grid by a country mile. That performance, in the wet, was one of the most incredible I've seen. Only Schumi has driven better in the wet in my lifetime. As much as I like him, Lando doesn't have the guts of Max.

Years after Brexit and I've found Boris' fabled TimTams. Reduced for quick sale. Plastic tasting Penguins without the jokes. It's like the perfect metaphor for Brexit

Well this has dredged up an old, childhood fear!
