Are these really old-fashioned habits? Smoking and drinking were much more prevalent in the past. I’d say these are modern habits.

Launching his annual report, Professor Sir Chris Whitty urged people to adopt “old fashioned” habits to stave off ill health and disability in later life, saying sickness need not be an inevitable part of ageing. He said healthy eating, exercise, mental stimulation, drinking only in moderation and stopping smoking were key.

On reflection, I much prefer playing badly but scrapping a win to playing decently and losing.⚽️

This whole strip brought a tear to my eye. ‘…a mere brush across an otherwise happy mood.’ is such an insightful line.

Yobs cartoon in Private Eye

I received my latest Private Eye at the same time I read of Tony Husband’s passing. I’ve been laughing at Husband’s cartoons for over 30 years. Sometimes silly, sometimes melancholy, always insightful.

I know rugby union is a slow game, but just how long is this World Cup going on for?

Interesting to see the UK reviews of #Frasier being surprised by how good Nicholas Lyndhurst is. He was in Butterflies, Only Fools and Horses, Goodnight Sweetheart, and more. The guy knows a thing or two about comedy.

Anonymous person messages Times Radio and says they are young, mostly left-wing, and feel Sunak is doing the right things.

Never felt more woke than when walking to the local shop and buying vegan Galaxy chocolate.

At the local chemist and, once again, amazed by the sweet shelf time forgot. Chewits and whistling lollipops both proudly on display.

Still having fun playing with my AI-generated football rumour mill #ai

Crystal Palace have made a surprise move to purchase Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale over the weekend. Sources within the London club have confirmed that the club were so impressed with Ramsdale's ability to wiggle his ears while standing in Sports Direct last week, that they decided to take the plunge and sign him up. Arsenal were happy to accept the offer as Ramsdale had made it clear that he wanted to move to a team where his ear-wiggling would be seen in a more favourable light.

Sisyphus had it easy pushing that rock for eternity. He should have tried returning an order to Logitech.

Interesting how some debates around #ev charging connectors focus on the aesthetics of the Tesla charger like it’s some object d’art you hang in your living room, rather than a plug you occasionally connect your car to for power.

My daughter’s at a play rehearsal, leaving me with two hours to fill before picking her up. Eating a big slice of steak pie in a pub seems the most sensible option.

I’ve added another little tool to my ‘hobby’ site. This one turns an email into a list of action points — Great for those long, meandering emails we all get:

It’s very good of the Tories to give me something to follow on a Saturday, now the football season has ended.

I see Johnson has resigned to spend more time with his families.

It would be unbelievable, if it wasn’t so believable. Boris Johnson referred to the police again

Enjoy your weekend.
