I have come to Tetbury on a report writing ‘holiday’ to stop me procrastinating and just get on with them. I arrived this afternoon and have already done 4. Now in a lovely pub with a glass of wine. This is definitely one of my better ideas….

You remember Mrs. Robinson very well, but what about the scene from Gone with the Wind? Michael Sheen looks fantastic in a dress and makeup! He’s a masterful transformation, and it’s inspiring!

Muppets we need in the Winter Olympics:
-Ice Dancing: Kermit & Miss Piggy. More compelling than the French
-Bobsleigh: Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem. A chaotic sport for a chaotic band
-Luge: Dr. Honeydew & Beaker. They know physics!
-Ski Jump: Gonzo. No explanation needed

"One of Us" was ABBA's final parting single - so we've adapted it into a 🎶 parody we're calling "Exodus" to reflect on the urinary trickle of Tory departures to Reform UK, most notably two driplets from the bottom of the last government's barrel @RobertJenrick & @nadhimzahawi.
