What? First series was great. So I began watching series 2. Series 2 episode 1 is rubbish. Who'd have thought?

I'm currently watching season 2 episode 1. It's so bad. So, so bad. If episode 2 continues in the same vein I'll be binning this off.

Every time I park in one of the angled parking spaces outside Killay Co-Op it seems someone driving one of those long wheelbase vans slides into the next spot down. When it's time for me to leave I can see bugger all and have to reverse out into the main road at a snail's pace.

Saw him once at a massive venue in Manchester. Tickets were eye-wateringly dear, but I was investing in my future (if you know what I mean). He was great. Those ear worms lasted sodding months too.

This latest play by Starmer could work well* for Burnham in the long run. *assuming his goal doesn't extend beyond being leader of the opposition.

One episode to go in series one of Mr Mercedes. It took a few episodes to get into it but I've no doubt I'll continue watching the next series. It's unusual for a programme to have no obvious hero. That said, the villain is a brilliant character.

When I worked in Edinburgh the canteen did a sensational cullen skink. They were forever handing out beer too. I really should've tried to stick around longer 😆

This may very well be operator error but it's a right royal PITA. I open the mail app on my iPhone. There's a message that I forward to Mrs Bear. I then reply to the original message. But it also goes to Mrs Bear. It has happened multi times (I'm a slow learner) but what's the rationale...

I will say this. It'd be nice if, when a player does his actual job, ie what he's paid to do, he just does it without feeling the need to start pointing at the sky or himself as if he's just cured cancer.

As much as I want the Pats to win this, Houston's TD that handed them a second quarter lead was a thing of simplistic yet wonderful beauty. 10-7 Oilers, 2 mins played in Q2.

ChatGPT offers all this. Dunno whether it's worth at least trying to rule them out in turn? Given that two machines (old and brand-new) leak in the same place, this almost certainly points to an installation or setup issue, not a faulty appliance. Here are the most likely causes, in...

Poor old Guardian, still getting it in the neck over problems they fixed circa 40 years ago. 😄

Wednesday night's Traitors confused me.

At least this explains why whenever I'm in Newport I see hundreds of oiks lingering in the city centre. They're waiting for their passports.

Yes, might be thick plastic. It seems a bit of a crap viewing option to me, especially if fans in front of the box stand on their seats.
