sanity girl - sadly not, I may have managed to stay awake otherwise :)


It was likely finance-related, guaranteed to send me to zzzzzz - or make me laugh if we're playing management-buzzword bingo.

This picture from yesterday's Standard in a piece about motorbike track days. He's going to have to go a lot faster, or indeed just move and take his bike off the stand, if he wants to get his knee down...

"Controversial BrewDog has previously been criticised for 32% and 41% strength beers."

Holy cr*p, changes the whole 'I'll just pop in for one pint' a bit....hmmmmm


Those bottles are so wrong, but so funny.

It's not a good week for animals. Try this.

I find it rather shocking an not what you expect from the Torygraph. This is my favourite bit.


A spokesman for English Heritage said: "This was a very rare incident".


I don't want to be too controversial here, but I'm thinking the dog was asking for it. What do you think?

    • Hi,  Julia is an old friend of mine and a talented artist. I have been travelling and would like to find out how she is or if anyone has any news about her. I have been in touch with some of her friends but since the care home she as in, in Peckham has closed down, everyone seems to have lost  touch with her and there does not seem to be anyway of contacting the company who ran the care home. She featured in one of the local newspapers in 2022 when there was an article written about her when she was in the care home. If anyone can help or point me in the right direction then please pm me.  Many thanks.              
    • Have they tried their local library delivery service for the elderly?  Free and wider choice of books.
