Slade at the BBC on BBC4

Its an exceptional song. A lot of people will scroll by. Its a guarantee that it will make your evening better.

Never in my lifetime.

There is a scene at the start of Truly Madly Deeply where Juliet Stephensons character talks about the loss of her partner. Every. Single. Time. Or I find that I've... just been sitting with my head in my hands... ...and an hour has gone by, or longer, like this. And I'm completely numb. And the kettle can be boiling away, or the telephone. And I'm crying. I can be on the tube and somebody says "What's the matter?" And there are tears. It's ridiculous. I miss him. I just miss him. I miss him. I miss him. I miss him. I know I shouldn't do this! I'm in the sitting room, but I think there's no point going to bed, as he's not there. Or I'm in bed, and I think there's no point getting up. It's anger, isn't it? It's rage. I get so angry with other people. People in love, or out of love, or wasted love! And women with children, growing children, fertile! But most of all, I'm so angrywith him. I'm so angry with him! I can't forgive him for not being here. I can't!

I was watching this with my daughter and I was in floods.

DiCaprio is fantastic in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape. Really hints at how good an actor he is.

Without going back over this thread, perhaps unsurprisingly I admit to crying over just about anything. If anything has an emotional wrench particular death of a loved on I am done. Last series of After Life. Every single episode. No shame.

Ghost.

To use an expression from the young set, what an absolute weapon. His voice is screwed and this, is just as bad as it gets.

The Running Man.

Well thats shit.

In all fairness I gave up after it was all over his room. I thought is this some nerd joke I won’t get. I will read to the end. It better be worth it.

In before Mike. I don’t get it is it a joke?

They are unable to say the word horror as well.

uncanny really.

I am usually in the states during an election year and would have been this year. As an impartial viewer I love the attack ads, they are just the right mix of venom and comedy. That said I only have them for a 2 week period.

The actress Jill Gascoine has died after a long illness aged 83. The most surprising part of that is she is 83. Then I remember how old I am.

I have had a 2 month Christmas. I am fatter and my liver is pickled. I am dieting and full of good intentions to lay off booze for a few weeks.

I have no curiosity. If someone sent me shit like that I would question our friendship. I live a sheltered existence with regards videos that I know I will never want to see, I don’t go looking for them and they don’t find me.

I lost a few hours at the weekend. Had a particularly good curry and a couple of bottles of wine. Lost a few hours and gained a pain in my arse. Without question it must have been space aliens. No other explanation.

I guess he might have less of a platform too.

I came to the conclusion today that I want Trump to win in November. If he doesn't win he will be shouting from the sidelines until he does win again. My thoughts are get his 2 terms over and done with then at least his is done.
