Wagner troops have smashed through barricades and are driving full pelt to Moscow. Putin has apparently fled the city. The next few days are going to be interesting. It is pretty amazing turn of events.

Horizon Forbidden West completed! I liked it a lot. Sagged a bit in the middle, but the world and story are very convincingly realised, and it has Lance Reddick and robot dinosaurs in.
4 stars.

I'm not entirely sure UHD is necessary. Obviously SD is shite. Almost unwatchable. But is UHD too much? HD feels to me like just the right amount of D

I don't own a uhd TV. But when I've played games / watched TV at friends houses who do I've definitely thought it was the right amount of D.
8k on the other hand..

But a properly setup, decent 1080p TV will blown away a badly set up cheap 4k panel. Apparently.

4k is the biz for a larger screen size. But upscaled HD is pretty good. You can see the difference on my TV if you directly compare uhd and hd but otherwise it's not that obvious.

Speaking of crazies, I has the misfortune of bumping into Tootsie* last night @12.30am. Claims to have fallen over in the kitchen on Wednesday, "...and 'they' had to call an ambulance", it stated with an air of self-importance. Hang on a moment. 2 weeks ago you claimed to have fallen over in the bedroom and were ambulanced off to Hospital. The way you talk about Tootsie … It sounds like they(?) like you - always stopping to talk. Maybe they have a drawing, in their home - to encapsulate the relationship - of the two of you sitting on a sofa, and with you placing a paternal, caring arm around their shoulders. Make sure you lock all your windows tonight. Safety first.

Evening
Watching The Pretenders and having a few cold brewskis. Going to watch Guns n Roses later. Hopefully a cracking performance, then just towards the end their last song Axl loses his voice...
Pizza Hut delivery en route to soak up some of the old grog I've thrown down my neck.

Johnny Marr is now on with the Pretenders.

Opposition 123-8 off 40 overs.
We knocked it off for 1 wicket in 16.4 overs.
A bully ramming.
Leicestershire division 6 cricket at its absolute peak.
2 pints of Camden pale and back home looking after my humongous baby while the wife sleeps.
Overall I have really enjoyed my day.

I like the fact that Capaldi isn’t a chiselled super hunk.
A gruesome prospect. I’d love to seeing him pushed into the Worthy Farm sewage pit.

Because the place where he works has a bar.
Most likely he is getting loquacious with the customer on a mix of Guinness and Asahi. Probably not in the same glass, though you never know.

Shenguin works at a multi-purpose venue. One of its purposes is to keep him off the streets. This is partly achieved by having a bar.

GnR played one song I know. Leftfield being the better proposition. Pity they've got to come off to let the Fatboy on.

I've chucked Guns n Losers in the bin and am bopping away to King Rick Astley on the red button.
THIS is the real Glastonbury.

I'm quite enjoying Gnus N'Roses.
My imner Babyfark is rocking out.
I'd love to know how much botox Axl has in his face.

Morrissey singing the hits of Stock, Aitken and Waterman - I'd definitely tune in for that.

I think Axl Rose is looking pretty good. He has the kind of maniacal glee you want in a rock front-man.
