This is about misinformation on social media plays a part in war and journalism

I mean that shows the self-awareness that he knew that that was part of the humour really!

Summer Lightning was one of my favourites. You can't go wrong with that one.

I do quite enjoy Wodehouse for Jeeves and Wooster and Blandings although one unemployed summer spent a lot of time binge reading them and they become quite repetitive!

They're doing a separate crusade against disposable vapes. If they're going after smoking I'd imagine they'd be trying to encourage people to vape to quit.

It's all hypothetical because it's highly unlikely he'll still be in power to put this plan in to action come the next general election

8/20 here. Proud of getting some right. Really shocked about the answers to some!

A tricky test indeed

My sister still lives there and from what she says it's not too difficult. Some VPNs work, others are on the 'no longer work' list and at big events they mysteriously stop working.

She's not technically minded, she'll just be using an app.

Have updated comment above 🙂

If anyone wants the Radio Plays I can share a Google drive link

EDIT Here you go

Includes original radio series and the noughties radio series (adaptations of books - not as good but has the original cast and is entertaining)

The 70s records - essentially the commercial version of the first radio series - has the Disaster Area sequence in the for 'Black Ship' instead of the shapehifting aliens.

The Dirk Gently radio series with Harry Enfield. Inferior to the books but the most faithful adaptation.

Funnily enough gay sex was fine in ancient Rome (as long as you were the dominant one) but having sex in the light (whether natural or candle light) was seen as a massive taboo.

(Amongst the upper and middle classes anyway, I doubt the majority of people cared)

I mean I do think that whatever encourages people to read is great, but I know I'm getting old when I read in the article like this:

Filming themselves finishing a book in a single day against a backdrop of hundreds of them on shelves is all part of the performance, and viewers will be extra impressed if the book looks thick.

And just think "wtf?"

Obviously - I guess I'm more surprised at The Register in that case. They're a very savvy industry magazine. Presumably they get a hefty wad.

Thanks for this - this is something that has passed me by. So essentially plagarising another website's content for traffic plus the usual Google shenanigans? Nice
