It is 1940. Tyler and Scott and Tom and Jack meet Amelia's dad in the corner bar in inner London. "Hitler may be a bit of a twat but he can't be as bad as this bloody blackout", says Tyler, opening the curtains.

RIP.

Jeez Slacky. Turns out I’m a bit of a Christopher. Mustelids!

Somebody well informed posted the relevant sections of the Crimes Act on Twitter today. Turns out threatening to kill is a crime, 10 years max. Who knew? Especially now the “Nuremberg” crowd have moved on past politicians and are now threatening doctors, academics, or media people it seems if there’s not some action it’s going to give them the idea they can ramp it up.

Nice to be back at the school again. I love my cats too yet I also work in environmental issues. Life is very complicated....

My cats were always given a very strong talking-to about birds. My old lady cat once got shut in the same room with my canary, overnight. I opened the door in the morning, and she came out, head down. Canary quite safe. Dear old thing she was.

Brown Eyed Girl was one of the first songs I ever learned to play with a band with me singing - and it's a bloody side better song than Moondance

I think it's highly likely that Tyler and Scott and Tom and Jack have contracted the food poisoning. And I am delighted to see Amelia back at school and getting some sensible input from Ms Barry.

…He starts to put up his hand.

But no one else is…..

Brilliant David.

I can just see him doing it with his furtive, nervous little smile. And his little eyes darting every which way. Just like in Parliament. What a lousy human being I am.

Just what I thought, except for the last two words, which should read "he is".
