True - but "Bathsh!t" is one of the first adjectives to come to my mind. 

Spot on tribute/obituary in The Guardian. 

One thing I've always noticed about that publication is that if there's one thing it's very good at, it's that.

Maybe under the reign of Fergie, but not now.

TWD used to be an essential weekly fixture for me, but I never forgave the awful slump it hit after the first few seasons and so haven't bothered with anything to do with the franchise since.

I remember thinking it just wasn't terribly good. Same for Alien Resurrection.

By what metric? Genuinely curious as most citations I've seen have that as a two-horse race between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

History and importance.

That deserves a LOL

You can't beat a bit of footy bants.

Shame they're not tackling Sound Chaser - I was looking forward to that.

Enjoying a thorough ultrasound scan performed by a rather appealing Hispanic lady possibly more than I strictly was meant to.

An NHS admin mishap at post-op scans today extending my visit for at least an hour.

I'm often exasperated at the difference in my experience of the NHS when comparing the quality of their medical treatment (exceptional) and their admin, which is quite poor.

They're okay - they don't sound as strong as anything on Simulation Theory but they might be growers; we'll see.

I think that's it.  That last one a completely unexpected announcement and I nabbed a ticket today; 10 years since they last played that venue - it was on my birthday as well..!

Seems to be a pretty substantial bounceback of cases after they were tumbling for a while. Of course, the real focus is on serious outcomes, and it looks very much like we're in a much better position on that score.

Got a message today from the host of a function I was at last weekend - apparently 12 positive cases amongst the attendees have been declared since.

I have absolutely no symptoms at the moment.  As far as I'm aware I've somehow dodged Covid, even including when I spent long hours during a week of daily visits to a Covid isolation room sitting by my mum's bedside when she was seriously ill last year (albeit with Covid, as opposed to from it).

There's still little room for complacency.
