Drove to Cheltenham yesterday.

Just as I drove past the entrance to GCHQ - well sign-posted, hardly secret - someone drove into the site. In an Aston Martin.

Made me chuckle at least.

Friend has just WhatsApp'ed me the old "I wear a red jacket so my me won't see me bleed. Now fetch me my brown trousers" joke.

The text is overlaid onto a picture of a soldier.

I have texted back "Well it is a picture of a Guards officer, post 1815."

Your reminder that 'Die Hard' is not a Christmas Movie.

It is a movie which happens to be set at a Christmas party.

Christmas is NOT involved in the plot.

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Pass me over the jar of pickled eggs, please.
