“How low can you go?”

The Home Office, that quintessential blend of incompetence and malevolence.

Naah….the Water CEOs would just be going through the motions,.

I always thought an Ammonite was somebody that St. Paul wrote an epistle to.

Indeed. He's now on his fourth wife. At some point you'd think he would reflect on the one common factor in all these failed marriages...

I'm on insulin. Luckily I'm Scottish so our NHS ensures that I get not just the insulin free, but also the needles, sensors, etc even the sharps boxes. Meanwhile the most affluent country on the planet not only charges its diabetes patients for all this but seeks to make a profit? 🤷‍♂️

To be honest, I'm not sure he's that rich any more. Monty Python's been finished for over 40 years and Fawlty Towers is getting on for half a century old, so the royalties will have been drying up. I've heard both him and Eric Idle saying they're having to work into their 80's to make ends meet.

I used to think as Cleese got older he was becoming more like Basil Fawlty, where in actual fact he's turned into:

What really hit me was when a colleague told me they'd just turned 44 and I thought "Shit, the year they were born I was already an graduate engineer working abroad for a major multi national computer firm."

Boss told me: "You're currently doing the work of two men. Laurel and Hardy"

Musk could just buy them all...at his current worth he could buy one for every man, woman and child in NYC...

"The UK is an outlier in this..." "Except, of course for our viewers in Scotland..."

(Tacking on random bits of legislation totally unrelated to the main content / intent of a bill.) That's another one I need to add to the list of really weird things that the US does that no-one else in the world does.

I heartily concur: if there is anything less than 3 commas and a colon in a sentence I have constructed, I consider my sentence to be woefully inadequate, unnecessarily brief, and requiring a significant rewrite. (Extra points for Oxford commas naturellement.. )

Johnson "Kissed hands on appointment".. Hope the Queen counted her rings afterwards..

Unless it was a song with the one chord (Bb min 11 actually...)

Sorry..watched it last night, and while it was pretty enjoyable, it didn't hold a candle to the book. I appreciate they have to make changes to the narrative to fit a two hour,but for example the whole process of Grace finding Rocky's derelict ship section was totally glossed over.

Stanley Unwin or Marcel Marceau

Secondary teaching is harder than primary. (Disclosure - I started out as as a secondary science teacher)

Is she planning on killing him or silicone sealing him?
