God bless you Wall’s World!Hit the ground? Hit the ground with a team of advisers who can’t understand the meaning of the words they’ve written, or why the word ‘running’ (if you insist on adopting pathetic US tufspeak) is a blindingly stupid omission? FUCK.This is so lovely.Very grateful to @SilverPetticoat for thisJohnson has just referred to Starmer as ‘Captain Crasheroonie Snoozefest’. A peak of witlessness few have reached without oxygen.#DrJohn #MavisStaples at the 55th #Grammys - Happy Birthday to Mavis🎩 Photo: Rick Diamond for GettyYou are too modest, DB - but yes, this is fucking magnificent.Tennis players and spectators furiously shaking their fists at every triumph has made me think of @maxkellerman’s dictum that ‘all sports are a metaphor for what boxing actually is’. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a boxer mime a forehand after knocking someone out.The new Pears Building at the Royal Free Hospital is rather beautiful. I haven’t seen the inside - and hope I never do, given its purpose - but the outside is definitely handsome. Round of applause for the Pears Foundation and Hopkins Architects.If you can, you should.Jon Cleary and the Absolute Monster Gentlemen at Ronnie Scott’s. Or anywhere else. You just have to.I don’t know enough about the rail dispute. I only observe that RMT’s Mick Lynch cleaned up every single media picador who tried their luck today.I tried to involve Revere Ware in the promotion of The Copper Bottom Band tour, but they were ploddingly unamused.The Royal Navy began the process in the late 1700s but were soon overtaken by Paul Revere. Besides being a hero of the Revolutionary War, Revere pioneered the smithing art, and the Revere Ware company still exists today, selling copper-bottomed saucepans.The phrase ‘copper-bottomed’, or ‘cotton-fastened’ (because the nails and rivets used in the process had to be copper too) is still used in the UK to mean ‘a sure thing’.Because I’ve been asked, here’s a blurb on the phrase ‘copper-bottomed’: 18th C wooden ships were vulnerable to attack by weed, worm and barnacle. Sheathing the hulls in copper made ships faster and more manoeuvrable, hence ‘copper-bottomed’ = of high quality, reliable.Commiserations to NZ, hard as nails.And the captain brings it home. What a game.136 off 92. Never seen anything like it.Jonny Bairstow hitting this ball as if it’s robbed his grandmother. Unbelievable.Stokes to the crease. Crunchy.Work or perfectly balanced 5th day of test match? Bye bye work.Thank you for all the lovely birthday wishes. Especially the really lovely ones. Cake!Thank you Monique!Thank you for the boost, Kayla!Thank you AnaI know that there are many crises facing the world right now, bit this - this is on a terrible and terrifying scale. We really must do what we can to help.I couldn’t be prouder of my fiancé @samsriversideW6. What a cracking review of his restaurant Sam’s Riverside in The Times. Big round of applause to him and their team who work their socks off day and night. And yes the Parmesan churros really are little batons of cheesy heaven.A one-armed man broke in and stole my modesty, so… thank you Chris! #WDTAEYou won’t believe this, but I was just auditing posts that I MUST NOT RETWEET on account of that being bragging, when this bloody magpie swooped down… I mean what are the chances?Look here, I didn’t mean to retweet this - I was just cleaning my phone and it went off…You gave as good as you gotNo! I’ve gone and pocket-bragged again…Thank you Lisa! #WDTAE @BritBoxNow this is a ray of sunshine in a cloudy world. Huge congratulations to M’Colleague and M’CC.Damn it, there are so many things I need to do today. I need to jog, pay my rent, shop for groceries, go to the gym, finish a book, cook dinner for my kid. But first, I must, FUCKING MUST talk to you about how important yesterday's "Hitler was a Jew" rant by Lavrov was. 🧵The future is bright. Unfortunately, that’s not where we’re headed.Oh no!! I just hit the Accidental Bragging Retweet button! Thank you Kelly #WDTAEHow do you like this apple? @BritBox_US#WDTAE is now out in the world, and the proud dad can't help himself. I hope you like it. @BritBox_UK
