I think it emphasises the cyclical nature of the human being, and how we can break the cycle to rejuvenate ourselves into a better human, as long as we don't overdo it, as we shall see in the later series, and then we revert to a Descart-ist sub realism of what we expect our lives to be. -

Yes, I felt the same way before I moved out of Uxbridge to Hastings. -

The journey time from Warrior Square to Morrisons used to tak 15 mins, it now takes 30. It is actually quicker to walk. -

Hastings and St. Leonards has a very strong artistic history, maybe they should just leave it be. -

BBC4 started showing one of my most influential TV comedies. Forget Fawlty Towers, me and my mates gathered around our 1976 TV to watch "The Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin". This was the height of sarcastic television. We loved the idea that somebody could be so bored they would fake their own death to set up a company selling rubbish, which is pretty much 2021. I had a manager who would, in all honesty, say "I didn't get where I am today....", before I would start giggling. We had a Senior Nurse who would say Great, Super to everything he said, She was born in 1980 so had never seen the series. -

And the most dullest piece of news about self reporting.... https://www.hastingsobserver.co.uk/news/people/hastings-man-to-take-part-in-bbc-show-masterchef-3143810 I have been on TV in 4 quiz shows, I don't report myself to the local rag every time I go on. Admittedly, I only ever won once. -

There is no such thing as "On Time" around here, the bus company* have pulled the timetables from public view, and the drivers refuse to disclose when they run. This wasn't a complaint about running on time, but a complaint that the hidden tables seem to allow the drivers much more leisure time whilst supposedly working, if they have to take a newspaper, or a word search book out with them whilst driving, then there is something wrong with the tables. *Singular, Monopoly. -

Got the bus today from Asda. to home, as I exited the store I saw my bus drive by 100m to the bus stop, it is close enough to the bus depot where the lazy a**e drivers smoke themselves to death, when I got to the bus stop, there was the same bus. The driver was doing a word search in a magazine she had. I sat there and waited 5 minutes, then asked her if she was on strike, or waiting to finish her word search before moving, she told me to P**s off and started the engine, she then drove 5 stops, and switched everything off again for ten minutes, enough time for me to waalk home -

My Cousins husband didn't even know there were Sky Channels 951 upwards to show BBC;s local News all around the country, he had never been above Ch 408 as he is a Man Utd fan. He wasn't aware of the ch 501+ News channels. "I don't speak Russian of French so why should I watch RT or France 24"? He said. -
