So many to mention, but I will single out Bottom.

This caused me actual real pain from laughing. I was on the floor bent over with stomach pains and having trouble breathing - I think during an episode called Digger.

As part of my, er, 'hobby', a few months ago I was experimenting with using AI to upscale some old porn clips.

I thought why not use AI to create some DVD inserts and labels. Sadly, I no longer have the prompt which is annoying.

Still, here are the DVD insert and DVD label. If I did it again, I would try and do it so that the chap in the pic keeps his face intact on the DVD label. All in all though I was quite pleased.

Having watched a The Good Life : Inside Out a documentary fronted by Penelope Keith celebrating 50 years since it first aired, we have now embarked on series 1 of The Good Life. And yes, it is still funny  .

Just got up to date with 3 series of Professor T and looking forward to series 4 if it ever gets here.

Still got series 3 of Rose & Maloney to watch. Only 3 episodes in this though.

I was watching Dame Penelope a few weeks back actually in some awful reality thing about re-purposing country houses and the like. We lasted about 15 minutes - not Penelope's fault, just everything else didn't gel with us.

RIP Penelope.

I wonder if anyone called her Penny? And if they did, were they put in their place?

Me, aged about 8 - 10, with my Great Granny Kemp on the left of the photo, and her sister Maude on the right.

The location was the open air market in Canterbury, Kent. I loved the school summer holidays, as my Gran Kemp would take me away on holiday from South Wales to Canterbury for the whole 6 weeks. I have very fond memories and there was a boy of similar age to me that I made a good friendship with and we would meet up during the hols and get up to various nefarious activities.

Anyhoo, this is the original photo:

And this is run through chatgpt to create a full height image and remove the creasing from the top corner. I have tried a few times, but it refuses to give me lace-up shoes!

Samsung A16. 128Gb internal storage.

Just checked and I had also put a spare 32Gb SD card in it.

No VT or TfE. No loss.

No Power Windows is just, well, it saddens me.

No CoS (for me) is no biggy. Although they usually slip something in even if only in a medley.

No Power Windows.

Assuming Aimee Mann doesn't travel outside US/Canada, can we expect Time Stand Still to be dropped and replaced?

Ho hum. Only time will tell (different band I know).

No PW still. And maybe not at all. Would love anything apart from The Big Money which has been done to death. Grand Designs would be incredible.

QuoteReg, Google Spider Noire and see what happens 

That was cool 

First episode of Spider-Noir, in black & white.

Absolutely hooked. Stunning cinematography. Nicolas Cage is sublime. His secretary (Karen Rodriguez) however steals every scene she is in. She is brilliant.

Quote from: The Picnic Wasp on June 07, 2026, 10:01:39 PMI paid stupid money for the second night in Glasgow. Great seat but buying it was more like an act of closure than excitement.

I still think a lot of tickets were bought with a mind to exploit folk somewhere down the line. I think many of those attempting this are in for a shock and I expect to pick up a fairly cheap ticket for the first night as the date approaches. Maybe even on the day.

There does look like a lot of available tickets for night2 at Glasgow.

And the 2nd night at Manchester. I did spot an 'in the Gods' ticket at less than £100 recently, but I'm still waiting for the prices to drop. I just can't see them selling out at these inflated prices.

I remember my 2nd Clockwork Angels gig at Sheffield, they did tickets at half price - I think I paid £36 for it, or something like that. In fact, that was the last time I saw them. Cracking gig too.

Woohoo - more dates added - a 'part 2' tour in November / December this year.

Best of all - the opening gig is at the Buckley Tivoli, just 20 minutes from me. Get in!!!
