I mean, we already knew this, but consider this gem : @shanegreer @wallaceme It's like Boris liking the Clash. How can he listen to something which is fundamentally opposed to everything he is? I think she's actually fucking serious, too. I'd like to point out to the Dishonourable Member (and I use the term in its most ribald sense!) for Mogadishu East that not everyone defines themselves completely...

An itch...to Stitch! (Free subscription) | 4 hours ago

It's only taken me two months but I'm finally back online!!! It's been nice today catching up with everyone, and it's come just in time, with Graeme's birthday round the corner. Speaking of which, I ordered two tickets for him and his dad to go and see Pink Floyd in Wolverhampton. That was a slight odyssey to say the least, considering I had to order them in the library yesterday. I've never ordered...

Don't Make a Scene: Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Scene 32)

"Let's Not Talk About Movies" (Free subscription) | 8 hours ago

The Story: It's all funny, really...even the skewed credits in Nørsk. But my favorite part of " Monty Python and the Holy Grail " comes deep in that very episodic and brutally low budget film (partially financed by the bands Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd ) with a three episode strip that exemplifies what is best in the comedy troupe's methods of madness; we'll be exploring these over...

Erith has been sounding like the outskirts of Basra for the last few nights, as the fireworks have been let loose for yet another year. Teeming rain, wind and other meteorological nasties do not seem to deter the revellers. It seems strange that all these years on from the events of the gunpowder plot, we still commemorate what could conceivably have become Britain's' first case of suicide bombing....

A charmless man

20th Century Boy (Free subscription) | 23 hours ago

I'm a 49 year old man stuck in the body of a 16 year old who wishes he was alive in the 60's. People in the supermarket I work at tell me "Enjoy your youth" whenever I make a crack about being too young to sell alcohol. Well no. What's there to enjoy? And so what if I sound like an angsty little so and so. 40 years ago Beatles mania was the phrase 0f the moment, people listened to music on...

This week's DVD and Blu-ray releases

The Guardian (Free subscription) | yesterday

Ghost Story DVD, Nucleus Films There's cult value to spare in Stephen Weeks's 1974 film – an effective, thoroughly creditable MR James-esque tale of a stately home haunting. Three posh, mismatched ex-university chums spend a few nights in an English country pile in 1930, where the oafish outcast of the group is led by a creepy doll into harrowing flashbacks dealing with the neighbouring mental...

Filed under: Technology About a dozen years ago, this blogger drove his father's Buick Regal Gran Sport Coupe to a Pink Floyd concert at the 80,000-seat Pontiac Silverdome. After the concert was over, said blogger spent two hours trying to find his old man's ride in a sea of tie dye shirts and strange-smelling smoke. We've all misplaced our cars in mall parking lots, at airport garages or sporting...

The Guardian (Free subscription) | 06/11/2009

Today's rumours are still slogging away Everyone wants to be No1. Even Terry Wogan, who yesterday launched his bid for Christmas chart success with a version of All You Need Is Love, also featuring Sharon Corr, Bryan Ferry, Brian May, Pink Floyd's Nick Mason and popular one-eyed ursine mascot Pudsey Bear.
