I’m thinking of writing to the 1922 Committee, to ask if we can please have a new PM. I’ve been looking back through the list of previous Tory Prime Ministers to find one with a modicum of common sense, integrity and social responsibility. Could any Sicki posters please let me know if the 1st Earl of Stockton is still alive. PS I am not and never have been a Tory party member or voter.

Yet another celebratory ice cream flavour to try. Ben & Jerry's new ice cream flavor "Afghanistan Abandon-Mint."

Great British Bake Off final tonight on C4 and it is Cannibal Night so look out for; tart’s tongues in aspic, Glasgow prairie oysters, griddled kidneys...the scouse version, the obligatory finger buffet and as a grand final Sandi Toksvig will be having a first ever meat and two veg courtesy of Paul Hollywood.

‘Big Brother is watching you‘, a famous quote from George Orwell’s Nineteen Eight-Four. A book in which he predicted the mass surveillance of British citizens,.

Belated news for any Sickipedians who attended grammar schools all those years ago…it was announced today that scientists have developed a vaccine for Ovid. Anyone wishing to comment on this post should do so in verse, English or Latin both acceptable.

In an attempt to show that Bond films don't promote inappropriate sex and violence, a draft of the next film in the franchise has been leaked. No Thyme To Diet stars Joyce Bond, she's a single parent of a mixed race disabled child, she's vegan and seriously thinking of coming out as transgender. This dusky skinned heroine wears only organic clothing, No fast cars for her, she pursues villains on her e-scooter, recharging it overnight using a wind powered generator (it took her a while to realise solar cells don't work in the dark). When she catches the villains she uses her powers of persuasion (and shrill heckling voice) to force them to surrender. No violence, no sex, just the occasional flat latte or full strength Capstan (her only vice). The film will be released next August 2022, it lasts just over four hours and is suitable for family viewing. Hang on a minute, what's that disturbing noise.....oh, it's Sean Connery, Roger Moore and David Niven spinning in their graves.

Academic qualifications can help you get noticed in the modern world, but you need to study for an extended period of time to gain them. Ordinarily yes, but nowadays you can just add them after your name, after all as long as you are not fraudulently applying for a job, who is going to check up. Take my word for it Yours Sincerely Darker, BSc, MSc (Cantab), LRIC, BOFARS, WC (& Chain).
