The internets seem to be awash with the PM's abominable pizza, it's getting a real grilling world wide. Hopefully the Fed with the jet ski will put Edgecumbe above the spaghetti and rug doctor will set up a crowd funding campaign.

I wonder if CookMySock will be flying around rescuing people with his parafan(alia)?

I bloody hope not.

Some funny things happening in the media world. Pepsi have pulled their bloody awful Jenner TV ad. As somebody commented, they needed at least one black person in the room to tell them that ad was not a runner. Still, it has given us a new meme and some of the jokes are actually funny.

FOX's Bill O'Reilly has been a prick for years, but suddenly with all the news about his putting the hard word on the females in the office, seventeen or more advertisers have pulled ads from his show. Some very big names among them. Be interesting to see if he can ride this out, or will ride off into the sunset.

Surely the Mr Whippy rescue vehicle will be able to get through? Give the residents hope with a motivating blast of Greensleeves over the PA system!
