  1. @Schroedinger99 Yes, but so what? They can't do anything.
  2. In the Observer today, the commemorative shortbread turns to ashes in my mouth. bit.ly/LX9uSa
  3. @KatyFryd That looks like pretty sound reasoning to me.
  4. I won't be performing sadly. Or performing happily. Or there at all. So should be a great night. In aid of Slapstick Silent Film Festival.
  5. Like comedy? Bristol based? Think you'll still be alive on the 24th June? Then this is for you: slapstick.org.uk.
  6. @Miss_Chrissi73 Yes - and I know what you mean, it makes me uncomfortable. I do think that they're still effectively secret though.
  7. @LilJerseyDevil Yes, initially there was a different one from the one in the paper. I felt it misrepresented the article.
  8. @nightierosie Nice!
  9. @grahamtait_aufc Quite right. Only listen to people who agree with you. That's the best preparation for a career in court.
  10. @_ChrisHall_ Yes, draw the curtains and watch some televised traffic. Lovely.
  11. My Observer column is about prisoners voting and the European Court of Human Rights. Who needs sunshine?! Get stuck in! bit.ly/LrS2FK
  12. @ClassicsScholar @roberthudson Lovely. Though, in this weather, even the Kilburn High Road looks picturesque.
  13. Maybe it'll be on the week after? I'll let you know when they tell me.
  14. It's the last-but-one of the series. The last of the series will not be broadcast next week, however, because of the Queen's wedding.
  15. Tonight's Would I Lie To You? (BBC1, 8.30pm) features @huwbbc, @SarahMillican75, @josielawrence1 and @BradleyWalsh.
  16. Aren't caricatures meant to make normal-looking people seem dweeby, not the other way round? Also in today's Observer: bit.ly/K2IfZk
  17. In the Observer today, I'm bible bashing. But only Michael Gove's shiny ones. bit.ly/J6g6gw
  18. Quite. RT @Acke___ Somnar till ett avsnitt av the unbelievable truth och hoppas att jag drömmer fler skeda-drömmar om @RealDMitchell
  19. @rymix I can't make it happen - I'm too old for the character.
