About time for a Dr Who update. I’ve reached series 12, episode 6 which is halfway into the second Jodie Whitaker series. I have to admit that it’s not been too bad, much better than I expected/remember. She’s actually quite good but the plots are getting gradually weaker and less memorable. Sticking it out.

Glad to hear from you @catsnbirds. I know you are lurking in the booths. I’m sorry if you have been the only one subject to an indecent amount of The Fall and Steely Dan. Or maybe not if Tom Hanks is still mooching around. Didn’t he say he would leave the country if Trump won. Maybe the BP is where he’s now living. But don’t play him at cards, he cheats.

See Chelsea scored a boatload against FC Noah and apparently the goals went in two by two.

That’s how I feel watching England’s ODI team.There’s a lot to be said for doggy obliviousness.

Well I moved on and this is where I got to.

Depressed, concerned and bewildered. It’s been a pretty miserable day. I speak as a member of the human race.

So took Twiggy up a big mountain. She was so happy scampering across the rocks and heather that I soon cheered up, thank goodness.

You’re giving it 5 years?

Something a bit odd about some of the leaderboards. For example 11 of the top 50 in Level 1-24 in AB have blank names. It’s the same on other levels. Was this always the case or has something caused this recently? I don’t remember seeing it before although I think it was mentioned recently in the context of a Challenge. Did we come up with a…[Read more]

Speaking of moving on I hear Toronto is nice @catsnbirds.

Don’t know why everyone is getting worked up apparently America is heading for a new golden age…if you’re a billionaire that is…

What has been sown will be reaped by those who sowed it.

Moving on.

Looks like the slippery sod made it.Strap yerselves in!

As well as stupid answers there are also stupid questions.How about this from an interviewer to Damian Lewis:”Why is Wolf Hall so unwoke?”

Cos it’s a historical drama set in the court of King Henry VIII maybe?!?

Maybe I should look more at AB GE levels. They too are very glitchy.

Bit late in the day now @desperate-dan so just mucking about in ABS GE levels.One level in particular (HD Gold Ring) has a glitch that is very easy to get working but just cannot get it to pay out the high scores that some have achieved.Top glitch score is about 100k above my best non glitch score( which I think is almost the best I can get).Very…[Read more]

Talking of wilful ignorance, there is a lot of it about. Fingers crossed for the US election.

@hunnybunny, the geography thing drives me mad. On the same programme a couple of them had not the foggiest idea of where South Korea was. The fact that they kept choosing China for everything seems to imply that they didn’t even know where China was. Today somebody failed to work out which country was bordered on either side by Canada and Mexico.…[Read more]

@brianN, both Angry Birds levels so 2-12 is Poached Eggs and 4-9 is Mighty Hoax. Conventional numbering so not much more to add. Annoyingly today’s Challenge (ABO 6-2) is not within reach using Ver 1.6.3, so I’ve had to sit it out. But at least on 1.6.3 I finally caught up with (and benefitted from) the self-collapsing level 3-9, which has some…[Read more]

2-12 and 4-9 which episodes @desperate-dan?Car’s in for it’s MOT today might have a look out of idle curiosity.
