@jcd1974 My pleasure, I’m glad you enjoy him!

@Afterthefloodco Brilliant. A shame the article doesn’t give a sense of how big they are: spoon-tamago.com/2016/06/27/ill…

Just noticed the cinema on Whiteladies Rd, Bristol reopened as an Everyman recently. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiteladi… So pleased it’s a cinema again.

@tomtaylor I thought it was more to distract the harrumphing “the licence fee is so expensive, shut the BBC down” folk!

@tomtaylor Tangentially, claiming a 10 shilling licence fee in 1922 is only 50p “in today’s money” is so grrrrrrrrr.
