Phone beats gun? Yes, but only if you have the ‘iBust a cap in yo ass’ app…
I had a rough night last night.
A combination of coughing up the odd lung or two in the aftermath of the ‘cold from hell’, and our two Maine Coons wanting to play with their feathery sticks at 4am conspired [...]

He seems to be in permanent residence in the BBC’s Radio 5 Live studios.
I have a room to rent that you can share with a lodger who says he’s Derek Draper.

A hat tip to Mish Masher for producing this.
It’s what many of us suspected and what Harman and Dimbleby make very clear at about the 50 second mark…

…well, heroine actually…
Carrie Gracie.
Here she is in action * and it’s why I now worship her:

OK, it’s infested with cockends of all types and it’s moderated to buggery, but the ‘Have Your Say’ section of the BBC News site usually covers news stories ‘du jour’.
