Heard a great comment on the Arsenal parade “You’d think we’d won a war against another planet!”

@theguardian.com is it some sort of error with my account but I seem to get the strangest articles focusing on Australia for some reason. Does anyone else get this?

Worth another repost ... www.theguardian.com/news/2026/ma...

Incredible sentence which I will not be fact checking.

Good timing… cooking meatballs today, going for 50/50 beef and lamb, definitely poaching them in a tomato sauce.

When the world gets you down, just remember the wonderful variety of dumplings out there...

Just finished watching The Cage by Tony Schumacher. As with his last series, Responder, the shifting nuances of what is good and bad or what makes you happy or sad are astonishingly well written and performed. Exceptional TV. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

England women have won the Six nations, captained by an out and proud lesbian. Men's rugby in England is yet to have their first openly gay professional.

Seems fitting that Larry the Cat has been the only steady presence in British politics during this turbulent decade 🐱

King Charles at State Dinner: “You recently commented, Mr. President, that if it were not for the United States, European countries would be speaking German. Dare I say that if it wasn't for us, you'd be speaking French”

New London bus - the display screen actually shows the bus is stopping and what time it is at the same time! Small miracles, eat your heart out Thomas Heatherwick. Enough for a wheelchair and two modern buggies too, and USB sockets

Mistake to have the final two contestants on the Apprentice on BBC News, their body language was so obvious as to who has actually won.

Pencil logo sketches by Jerry Dammers for 2Tone, 1979. On show from Saturday at the new V&A East museum.

What a great sign!!!
