Nabbed a seat in premium economy on the bus..

Some Canadian tourists going for a walk..

Remembering Roger Loyer, born #OnThisDay in 1907. A successful motorcycle racer - he won the 2-wheeled #FrenchGP in ’37 (Montlhéry; 175cc) & ’38 (Reims; 250cc) - he entered one 4-wheeled #F1 GP, Argentina ’54, in a Gordini. #AnorakFact: in later life he ran a car dealership in Paris.

I caught the bus to work this morning (in a change from the tube) & there was an empty Smint box on the seat beside the one I sat in.. I’m doing the reverse journey & sat in the same seat. As the photo attests, the Smint box is still there! Doesn’t it have a job to go to???

I once sat in a pub beer garden during festival time in Edinburgh, and the time I was there coincided with the audience from a Jimmy Cricket show spilling out and into the pub grounds. I swear, you never saw such a silly, delighted, just downright *happy* bunch of people. Not a bad old epitaph.

Hearing news that Jimmy Cricket has died. What a lovely man he was.

I've just seen the cover to the Complete Trumptonshire blu-ray, and now I need you all to see it too, so there can be an outbreak of delighted cooing and "aw" noises all across Bluesky. It's done my heart the power of good, it really has.

My friend and I came up with a cafe idea. Just tea or coffee. No fancy stuff. Shit biscuits only (rich tea, fruit shortcake, malted milk etc). And we would wear tabards. I think it’s a goer.
