I watched the reboot series, starring, ta-da, Sergeant Joe Friday, with my parents ... How do you like your eggs in the morning? With ham, of course ... This seems particularly apt:  |

I'm in a cafe eating a croissant and the only other person here is a girl in a black polo neck reading Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. I'm starting to wonder if this is actually the holodeck from a 1960s episode of star trek.

Erm, I may need some actual help. My day is going all Wardinator and The Gas Man. I'm in a caff doing some light reading, and some old weirdo is really freaking me out, staring at me, rubbing his thighs, making notes on his phone. Please help.

Everything outside could have been set on fire by disaffected lumpenproletariat, the service could be terrible, the bar owner drunk and there could be two fat guys out back playing pétanque. Other than that, yes. French people in black polo necks are supposed to read existentialism and structuralism. I’m going on holiday tomorrow. France. Proper France where everyone’s rude. |

You must treat a Frenchman as you would the devil himself.
Not my words, chatterboxers. The words of Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, 1st Duke of Bronté.

The slight stand-offishness is the best thing about the French. Meaningful communication is overrated. I love those bits of France where no one will admit to understanding any English at all and the slightest hint of a Brummie accent makes them pretend they cant speak French either. The worst ones are those who don't notice the accent and reply to you as if you can actually understand them. |

Assuming parliament hasn't fucked up so much the ports are closed I'm going for a pre-Brexit booze cruise next weekend.
Culture Friday pm, Sat, Sun. Car full of cheap* wine and strong beer on Mon.

Would Wellington have voted Brexit? He fought to defeat Napoleon's hegemony of Europe, to see the continent freed from the single rule of a dictator. But then Britain's role in Europe over the centuries has been to ensure that Europe is divided. It's only since joining the EC that that policy changed. |

Well we've united Europe against us successfully.
Who'd have thought being complete pricks could achieve that?

This is perfect Friday chat for me. Anywho, I went to a camera club open print competition last night, with a judge called Bob Webzell. Bob doesn't like my photos. In fact, he says it even if he hands out a 20/20 for a photo. Last night's commentary was no different, and I came home with a 17 for The Things I've Seen, and an 18 for Watching From the Shore. |
