I thought the idea in jousting was just to knock the other bloke off his horse. The more you know.

Perusing the local paper from the Isle of Man (it's almost time for my not-quite-annual pilgrimage/Visitation From The Dutiful Son, so I figured I'd best catch up with the goings on*) - apparently there's a Speed Mentoring Workshop. This should be useful, since I've had a devil of a problem getting hold of it while I'm there.

*in other news, I read that a former schoolmate, an utter tw@ of a man, was recently busted for the eleventeenth time for drug trafficking - apparently this brainiac tried to post almost 10 grand in used readies to Liverpool, claiming that the package contained christmas cards. What a plank.

I was reading this thinking, "who the hell needs a fridge with a social media presence?" Honestly this whole "IoT" thing scares the hell out of me - bad enough someone could hack your freezer and switch it to "defrost", but what happens when your fridge sends updates to your health insurance company, "Yeah, week 129 and there hasn't been a lettuce in here yet - just bottles of vodka, beer, and pots of chocolate pudding. Seriously, I worry about this guy."

Or maybe that's just my fridge...

Mind you, the Morley MP, Andrea Jenkyns, is easily as bad as Boris on the Brexit stakes, so you can see why he went there.

Aye. I recall that Morley had a BNP councillor for a while.

It should be pointed out that despite the media constantly referring to the north as a mass voting leave we actually saw majorities in Leeds, Manchester and Merseyside for remain. But when has Boris let facts interfere with his lust for power.

Pro tip: If you're planning to go swimming at your local fitness club, it's usually best to get out of your car first.

It also occurs to me that a fairly hefty chunk of "Leave" votes were actually just votes to give Cameron a bloody nose. BoJo et al would be foolish to rely on retaining those votes.

but the good news is once you have sourced it, it's fine, because there's no legal maximum amount of amphetamines that you can have on the island.

i.e. there is no...
