I have a rare day off from work and life admin today so, I'm opening The Unfinished Summer Sale Clinic! Not sure what to buy? Not sure what you've already got? Need recommendations or advice? With just a few days of the sale left, ask away and Dr Unfinished will help you as best he can! :)

Just remembered that the promoted teams to the Premier League this year were Coventry, Ipswich and Hull, and breathed a sigh of relief about Villa selling a number of their best players over the summer. No offence to fans of those clubs but...

The “Bad people should be vilified but, oh no, not THAT bad person, he’s my friend!” circle is getting closer and closer this morning, I see. Put your arseholes away, we don’t want to see them, and stop appeasing abusers AND the appeasers of abusers. It stinks.

Surprising amount of nonce-defenders on here today, just because one of them died. Not gonna respect a racist, homophobic, paedo, domestic abuser just because he’s white and knows the right people. Shame on you cunts.

If women wore smart glasses, they'd be banned. (soigomaa/x) Think about it. If millions of women wore smart glasses, recording men's behaviour, conversations, comments, their driving & bar chats ... can you imagine the panic? Trust me, smart glasses would be regulated before you can say 'Meta'.

Poster art from the show me and my mate took to Edinburgh in 2000 (sans text). We did Star Wars as a sitcom, with Luke and Han sharing a flat, Old Ben Kenobi as their neighbour, and Leia moving in next door. Vader was their landlord AND owned the local nightclub, the Death Star.

Poster art: cartoon image of Luke and Han sitting on a tatty old sofa, behind them is Ben Kenobi (with blond hair), Admiral Piety (with ginger goatee) and Leia, in gold bikini, carrying a tray of drinks - she works at the Death Star night club.

One thing I always end up thinking about when watching Korean shows on Netflix is… Where’s the Korean equivalent of Uniqlo in this country? Where am I gonna get any of those lovely comfy cardigans they all seem to wear?! Someone please fix this. Korean cardigans rule.

I’ve been a brave boy. I ventured out into the heat to help my daughter practice her cycling. To be fair, I got a real kick out of helping her progress. Seeing what I was encouraging her to do suddenly click and then the confidence that cane from her getting it right was a bit lovely.

Nextdoor’s builders have so far, on the first two days, turned up at 7am and shouted and fiddled with scaffolding for two hours, before disappearing. They appear to be using tools this morning, so will they work for longer? Who knows?!
