The best I've ever tasted were when I worked for GSK and we needed a huge amount to extract a protein from them. They must have given us the cream of the crop for being a top customer, not knowing they were just going to get pulped. Quite a few got noshed though, I can tell you.

In more important news, I've got some Lidl strawberries and they're okay, but not a patch on Morrison's Scottish.

I still think the Conservatives put a lot of their Worthing support in the ground during the pandemic. The queues are so much younger than when I first moved here and people were being carried from cars to vote.

Interesting numbers in God's own constituency compared to 2019. Does Ms Cooper have the Reform guy (who's a bottom slapper if I ever saw one) to thank, or was it the Lib Dems holding their noses and voting tactically?

I was hoping they'd end up as the opposition.

Disappointed that Farage's pants did not get shat in.

I think what we're feeling, and it's understandably confusing because it's been a while, is that the people in charge might have our best interests at heart.

The best thing about British democracy is when the actual head of government has to stand in a leisure centre at 5 am beside a guy with a bin on his head to find out if he still has a job.

If I wake up even more out of Europe, or with Jeremy "Utter" Hunt as health secretary again I'm going to swim to France.

Dropping a friend off one night, a couple asked if I was a taxi. I said no, but they misheard and jumped in the back. They were on my way so I took them home. They were mortified when I wouldn't take any money. Went in and had a cup of tea. Nice people.

The Right Honourable Peter Bottomley thinks I can't see him because he broke the street lamp with a stone earlier. My plan is to climb out the back window to vote in the morning.

There's something about a LD opposition I find extremely attractive. It might make for quite a grown up parliament.

Just had a waffle cone 99 from a seafront ice cream van. £5.50 but worth every penny. Lovely. Had to stare down a couple of seagulls.

Labour are definitely spending more on campaigning. The only Conservative leaflet I've had was a hand written piece of torn off ring binder from Peter Bottomley saying "Come on old boy, weren't we at school together?"

This old thing is going in for MOT tomorrow so I thought I'd take it for a blast and blow the cobwebs away. Radiator hose has split so I'm driving home in two mile chunks after cooling down.

I see articles, particularly on Covid that talk about your vaccine protecting you, so you might not become infected. The purpose of your vaccine was to boost your immune response. To be clear: if your blood is fighting off a virus, you are infected.

The albums Lady Gaga did with Tony Bennett are fucking masterpieces. She can measure her voice and vocal skill against anybody and his aged like expensive leather. Great music to listen to while watching the sun set.

I would rate it as a definite improvement, but if you'd paid someone to do it, you probably wouldn't recommend them to friends!

I have a bad knee so trying to lose some weight, but whenever I catch myself in the mirror, or on a video call when I'm trying to look like I'm listening, I can't help noticing I'm looking more evil. Not serial killer evil, more boring; O'Brien from 1984

Nothing to be done. Pretend it never happened and move on. Everyone does it. If you try to dig your way out, you'll just hit yourself with the shovel.

And it's the fault of the secret camera for fooling you into sharing your views early, rather than holding them inside until someone starts handing out armbands.

He should have leaned into it. Billboards with his huge ticket and the slogan "I can't lose!"
