Stumbled on ‘The Scars of Dracula’ (1970), TalkingPictures TV, with a young Dennis Waterman - a movie redeemed only, I feel, by Troughton (the 2nd ‘Dr’) as Klove. My fave line tho’ from an earlier movie … “will your master be joining us for dinner”? [Klove] “No sir. He’s dead”.

Seeing him on sky news a moment ago, I’ve gotta give Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sunak, his due - he can bullshit his way thru’ a interview (without giving a proper answer to a single question) with the best of them … not in Priti’s league, mind (for which I’ll give him a pass)

It’s true, then - he’s from Iowa & really DOES work in outer space!

I got the new Beatles book ‘Get Back’ from my daughter, earlier today … and, William effin’ Shatner, at 90, just had me thoroughly engaged. He made it so. I’m gonna skin up & pretend I was at Woodstock, again.

He’s gone full ‘Winslet’, by jove. Live long & prosper, Jim.

I don’t know why but, seeing Worf sing ‘Aktuh & Melota’ never fails to crack me up. I know, I know … it’s completely ridiculous. I mean, c’mon … … who, in their right mind, would openly mock Klingon opera.

I swear I just heard thunder, in December, in Essex … in December! Back in my day the weather had the decency to put a sheet of ice over the school tennis courts so we could play Curling with our sports bags, before end of term.🤨

Biden has a few troops to spare for a little jolly-up, back on the other side of the globe, to cheese Putin off! Bet Drumpf never saw that coming.

‘Thelma and Louise’? ‘Dick Dastardly & Mutley’? ‘Captain Hindsight’? ‘Operation Big Dog’? … I forget the collective noun for a box of cunts. Lunch, methinks.

‘It’s okay’ says Caleb, ‘I’m gonna sit this one out & let someone else handle it. Ya happy now? A few weeks later … ‘Caleb! You weren’t able to protect me, OR our daughter. Shame on you’. Almost a ‘Will Smith’ moment - damned if does, damned if …etc.

Early morning tv binge after putting bin-bags out … The first couple of minutes of ‘The Orville’ s3 ep4 is a masterclass in satire.

‘This evening, I shall mostly be watching Norwegian sci-fi comedy’.

Watching ‘ABBA at the BBC’ at the mo’, on BBC TWO, made me think to myself ‘I fuckin’ LOVE ABBA & I’m not ashamed to admit it”.

I dunno if I got this right … Viserys’ plan, it seems, was … to kill Daenerys to get what he wanted. Pretty dumb plan.

Wow! Ostriches sure lay a lotta eggs!

Wow. I hope they taste as good as they look. Good luck finding a cold climate though.

In August ‘Animal Farm’ will be 80yrs old. ‘1984’, I’ve learned, is 76 today. George must be spinning in his fuckin’ grave. At least we still have Rog.

I realise the profile shows a large number of followers but, I’ll be honest, I’d convinced myself this was a parody account. I wonder if this is how ‘flat-earthers’ feel?
