The egg worked (see previous post.) The leader of Argyll and
Bute Council has ordered officials to lift the ban on Martha Payne’s school
dinner photographs with immediate effect. It seems the international outrage
was a just a bit too much for their shoulders to bear.

The Lady B’s mama drove past me on the lane this afternoon.
She slowed right down and carefully positioned her wheels either side of a line
of puddles so as not to splash me. I appreciate that sort of thing. I do.

I saw a clip of a celebrity being interviewed on a trashy TV
chat show, and he made some inane remark that was apparently intended to be a
joke. It was trite and utterly unfunny, but the audience rolled about in tears,
presumably because he was a celebrity so whatever joke he intended must have
been a good one. The smug look on the face of said celebrity indicated that he
was now more convinced than ever of his value to humanity. This culture gets a
bit sad sometimes.
