Back on the painkillers and the soft cushion here so I needed something to lift my spirits.

This hilarious Rich Hall stuff hit the spot.

Mind the language...

No doubt you've seen it before...

 

Blunders of the Universe (HD) from darren jonusas on Vimeo.

 Best viewed in full-screen with the volume at 11 on the dial, IMHO.

 

Not enough? Try the extended version. Poor full-screen option though.

At long last I've got me a follow-up consultation:

Maybe I should send a reply?

I was thinking of something along the lines of:

"The patient will not always see the consultant (or his proxy) personally, the patient may send one of his mates from down the pub."

You'll all have noticed the line of lights in the south-western sky at about 18:30 GMT yesterday evening, no?

It's not the greatest of pics but it's the best I could do in a rush:

This is what you get: upper-left = Jupiter, middle = Venus, lower-right = our Moon

The 4th in the line is Jupiter's moon Ganymede (a tiny dot really close to Jupiter, you'll need to look at the full-size pic to find it).

Other folk have also seen Mercury (even lower than and further right of our Moon) from their locations, but from here it was down in the light-polluted clag.

There'll be similar such alignments in the south-western sky for several nights - have a look, take some pics, see what you can catch - here's what's on offer just after sundown on Monday:

Just don't go being stupid and looking directly at the Sun - it's another one of those things that'll make you go blind 😯

Pregn’nt & illitret?

"Your" in luck - New Look have the perfect garb for you:

I had to go clothes-shopping with the girls yesterday - can you tell that I was bored of waiting outside the changing-rooms?

Next time I'll take a thick black permanent marker so that I can go around making appropriate corrections.

Congratulations go to Alan Sloman, whose tally of comments here reached the 100 mark a short while ago.

I thought that this might be a suitable pic, seeing as he's such a high-flier 😀
