Old. But still great.

I'll happily put my hand up and say I was a Button doubter - not specifically in a McLaren context (because I've never particularly liked or (over-)rated Hamilton either), just generally after the way he won his title with Brawn. He's been bloody good this season though. I reckon he's revelling in the role of "less glamorous team member" and is probably secretly quite satisfied by the path of self-destruction Hamilton has decided to take of late.

I'm so glad there's a dedicated thread about this. Our towel piss-taking made my night almost as much as the result.

Great to see them overhitting several through balls late on. Almost as karmic as our strategic towel deployment.

Nowt. I realise it's become a cliché to call it a load of Americanised capitalist shite, but it's a load of Americanised capitalist shite.

Fuck me, the new version of that smiley looks less "naughty" and more "rapey".

Naked Jungle. Hubba hubba!

Only just saw this.

Fantasy World was the only one I ever completed.

Getting my dad to install a fully-fledged Subbuteo table in our spare room so that I could spend my weekends ogling Smooth Operator's arse.

Daniel Cordone started pretty well...

Polenta is proper horrible like.

Heading up to deepest Lincolnshire to celebrate the fella's grandparents' diamond wedding anniversary. THe Aussie wing of the family is over here for a few months, so that should be fun/nasal.

Further to the cashpoint discussion: people who try half a dozen cards in the machine before finding one they can actually draw on. I realise they're probably struggling for cash and all, but if you're basically skint then surely you should have a decent idea where your few pennies actually live?

Not minestrone but I did this on Sunday, dead nice and wintry and pretty straightforward: http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/member-recipes/Spicy%20Red%20Pepper%20Soup%20/2799 As for tonight, I munched on Julia Sawalha's chicken pie and loved every minute. http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/chickenpie_80250

I must say, I thought the win ratio banner yesterday was inspired. God knows how much extra it cost them to include those decimal spaces.

Need to pull an all-nighter for work tonight. Can't decide if the way forward is whisky or green tea.

Some very drinkable supermarket plonk.

Meanwhile:

Braved the unwashed hordes at Lewisham Market. Came away with three shopping bags full of fruit and veg for under a tenner. Spot on.

Excellent.

A red that's probably been open a few days too long.
