There was a commotion in Newbury yesterday morning. The short length of dual carriageway beside the park was down to one lane northbound. At the lights were a big newish Audi with a bit of damage to the back, behind it a big newish Mercedes with a bit of damage to the front and a lot of damage to the back and behind that was an elderly Fiesta with Shelby stripes and nothing discernable in front of the windscreen except steam, running fluids, scrap metal and ruination. I didn't see the incident so I have no idea whose fault it was.

Trying to cover the fatal disappearance of factory staff into the mixing machine for their ‘Secrets’ chocolates, while trying to do a hard sell to a supermarket:

‘We let people into our Secrets’

Still makes me laugh. It’s just me I’m sure.
He was a funny guy. He could do physical comedy too. The scene in Rising Damp where he pinches one of Alan's sausages and it's too hot is superb.

The scripts were superb. I still use ‘cock up on the catering front’ and ‘strange chaps, women’ on an almost hourly basis.

Indians, gypsies, tramps and thieves, there's a song in there somewhere. It's all go in Trivton-under-Cherwood.

I shall be shunting troublesome trucks in the shadow of Battersea Power station tomorrow, another Pink Floyd trivial connection for your delectation. ION, I'm off to see Emily play with her funny little friend Arnold Layne, on my bike, naturally... music

Did it get that far when it broke free? hehe

I think Roger Waters named it Algy? Something like that anyhow.

That Rising Damp episode was very funny!!

We're back from our meal, and it was jolly nice too!!! Mixed kebab starter, chicken jalfrezi, rice, saag aloo and garlic naan, all washed down with a couple of beers!!

There is no dark side of the moon. It's all dark.

The brain is an extraordinary piece of kit. I was just sitting here quietly minding my own business when the word bandana appeared out of nowhere.*

Not a mental image of a bandana but the word on its own.

Bandana.

*appeared out of nougat according to predictive text.

There are a few sunny patches if you know where to look. smile

It's just a confection of a mixed-up mind, Dicky.

Chocolate bandana nougat.
