The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Interesting video of a life in 5 minutes / about how that life is now represented in a museum.

Someone has uploaded a lot of highlights of Would I lie to You?

Such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AXbbEe-Cbg

Good stuff.

I recorded the Bob Mortimer bits when they aired and I must have wached them at least a dozen times. The Castle Douglas story still cracks me up.

Half the fun with him is that he cracks himself up.
