Barbara Cartland's make up,

Posted on Fri, 21 Aug 2026

Posted on Wed, 24 Jun 2026

Ha ha. Serves them right. One way or another these employers usually, not always, come unstuck. As you probably know, many of the largest companies are shedding half of their employees right now to free up money to invest in AI. I'n no expert on...

Hi Luigi, we certainly should

Posted on Wed, 15 Apr 2026

Hi Luigi, we certainly should but I keep reading things about the aliens already being here, or perhaps we are the aliens. Are these conspiracy theories? Who knows. Mars, Venus and Pluto is no longer a planet so we have already muddied the water...

Thank you GlosKat. I haven't

Posted on Fri, 03 Apr 2026

Thank you GlosKat. I haven't actually read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, I'm a bit ashamed to say. I will set aside some time to read it. He'll be reunited with Floppy I'm sure.
