Prince Phillip Anecdote....

When I were a wee boy we lived in America for a couple of years. He was doing a tour presumably near to where we lived and so of course we visited. He patted me on the head and said to my parents "He is very brown isn't he?"*

* For context I'm not black but tan very easily.

He swore at me on several occasions.

My neighbour, who was a porter at one of the Cambridge colleges, has an anecdote about getting drunk with Prince Philip, much to the annoyance of the Master.

But has he fallen asleep on the Queen Mother?

God but the radio's boring today :-(

Oh gawd it's gonna be all over the telly tonight as well, isn't it?

I feel sorry for Nicholas Witchell, he was going to put his feet up and watch The Masters with a few cans today.

That's what [insert catchup service of choice] is for.

We didn't watch Taskmaster last night. And we're still catching up on Luther and Elizabeth R. And Blackadder.

One of my colleagues has a friend who has a senior position in one of the hospitals. Apparently he's not a good patient. (I'm being diplomatic).

Meanwhile...

I've got to have a call with a colleague on Sunday in hopes that we'll know whether or not I've got to ask people to make arrangements for a bank holiday. The rumour is not, in case you're wondering - apparently he didn't see why people should take time off work and didn't want the fuss. I'm sure that a dutiful wife will respect his wishes.

The heart surgery was well worth it all round then.

LOL.

I laughed at this in-thread because it was so ridiculous, but they've actually gone and done it.

Poor Cookie is most affronted, quite rightly. Imagine the fuss if Keir turns up at the funeral in a donkey jacket.

I don't need encouragement to binge-watch stuff on All4 or iPlayer, but I have an arrangement involving a few live TV things accompanied by WhatsApp bantz.

[Rutabaga]

I think we just broke a rule though.

Gardeners World is off. And OH NO it should be the Masterchef FINAL.

Ha! At the risk of alienating my one mod ally I might have to use that.
