I believe in the separation of church and fete.

The Cheeky Girls moved in next door. They parked in our driveway without asking.

In tribute to Tim Curry, for dinner I'm having a tinned curry.

Han Solo is short for Handrew Solo.

I'm the only person in the whole world currently sitting in their garden drinking lavender vodka and coke whilst listening to The Wichita Train Whistle, an album of Mike Nesmith songs reimagined in the American brass band style.

I went to see a comedy show because a reviewer described it as "pythonesque", but the comedian just squeezed me to death.

HOW I WON THE WAR (1967) pod.link/1569929507 Following last week's show with Samira Ahmed about A Hard Day's Night we continue the Richard Lester theme with a look at his comic absurdist war satire featuring Michael Crawford, Roy Kinnear and John from the Beatles. With @adamsleslie.bsky.social

There are lots of book covers I love, but I'll go for this recent one for @adamsleslie.bsky.social's Lost In The Garden - the picture, the colours, the font... it does a fabulous job of encapsulating the delirious summer-dream heat that pours out of the story.

Name your fav book cover or movie poster.

Jacob's Ladder: an enormous postman goes on a frightening odyssey to hell and back, but on the up-side, all the ladies think he's adorable.

A wood pigeon and a collared dove just started hooting at exactly the same time to the same tempo, harmonising on the first and the fifth. There were some mad polyrhythms going on.

I wonder If a big reason Tom Baker became so irritable later on in his run as Doctor Who was having to wear all those woollen layers, including a thick scarf, under studio lights?

Quentin Tarantino's wrong. Like A Virgin is actually about being sacrificed to the Minotaur.

Soz!

Q. In which film can the director be heard breathing throughout much of the runtime?

Is snooker the only sport with a butler?

I’ve just finished listening to the audiobook version of Lost In The Garden, a wonderful, dreamlike horror debut from @adamsleslie.bsky.social. I’ll never look at a rural Summer landscape the same way again. hauntedgeneration.co.uk/2024/08/09/a...

Adam S Leslie and Lost In The Garden

Heat hazes shimmer above melting tarmac. The half-heard chimes of never-seen ice cream vans echo across deserted school playgrounds. Chips are sprinkled liberally with sand, and the grumbling cloud…

Thought for the day: early Red Dwarf is essentially early Last of the Summer Wine in space. A talky sitcom about loneliness, featuring the lovelorn vulgar scruff with poor personal hygiene, the one with pretensions of being officer material, and the inscrutable weird one.

TV's Sandra Dickinson cropping up in a major Hollywood feature film (The Running Man) with quite a big role is not something I had anticipated!
