    Just watching Simple Minds on BBC2. Didn't realise how much Jim Kerr looks like Bob Mortimer.
    I loved Simple Minds in the 80's & saw them a few times.
    But their music feels a bit dated these days and Kerr's voice isn't as good.
    I still watched it though.
    We saw them last summer at Lincoln Castle and I thought he sounded very strong. Perhaps he was late in a tour and showing signs of voice fatigue for the BBC thing. Mrs Idle likes them more than I do, but seeing as she also dragged me to a Capaldi concert (f***ing awful) I'll take SM any day.

    You’ve forgotten the ampersand 🤓

    Must admit I didn’t know where to post this, it could go under things that annoy you / make you feel old etc etc.. But I choose this as it made me laugh 

    50 years ago today at around 10pm I proposed (yes I was drunk). Thought I would remind the wife (who  accused me of being unromantic which is true) of the momentous occasion, she didn’t remember it 😀. Who says romance is dead.

    Isn't ampersand when a cockney family take their picnic basket to Broadstairs 🤔

    I'm sure your missis won't mind that its a man's version rather than one in pink called 'beard groomer'

    The real stupid moments that I have where I think to myself... "FA you really are a f**king idiot"
    Latest one last night... Was looking at a Holiday to Gibraltar next August as my wife would love to see the Total Eclipse, gone on to Expedia just to look at packages, and for the three of us £700... f**king brilliant I thought, staying in an Apartment why not, go through the pages to think about booking it and there I pause in confusion as suddenly the price is £700,000, its quickly dawned on me that I've only gone and missed the "," on the initial page and the deal was for the entire bloody Apartment!!
    Maybe I'm related to the bloke who signed off on the Alli deal, who thought we were signing him for £150k!!
