owlThe disadvantage of warm weather: no central heating, therefore no hot water in the tap for the washing up. I'm boiling a kettle and remembering my student days.
This is not my Sam Tyler. Nor is it Gene Hunt. It's not LoM, and it doesn't look like it's an American cop show of any quality. It's just a half-baked mess. It doesn't seem to be a reimagining, just our programme warmed over. These guys aren't Sam and Gene, they're acting Sam and Gene.

IIRC, it was Jason's 21st where my sister flung an Irish Times snippet in front of me and demanded to know if I knew this guy. IIRC (from the report, I was *far* too common/culchie to be invited), the birthday party included the birthday boy performing selected snippets from Hamlet.
Please tell me this post is f-locked.

Yeah, it's flocked, don't worry.
