hello non-ghosts

I can’t be bothered to use capital letters this month, sorry about that. 2 of my fingers are bound together because I broke one of them by falling into a hole in the road boris Johnson the mayor of London made by jumping up and down in the same place for ages. he’s doing this all over central London in order to make it too dangerous for normal people to walk around in, leaving it nice and uncongested for all the rich, foreign people who own it but don’t want to live in it because of all the horrible oiks walking around everywhere messing it up.

just a few things to clear up before I get on with the humiliating self-promotion.

number one. the labour party’s harriet harman’s pink bus’s’s.

harriet harman is going around the country in a pink bus trying to encourage women to vote. 9.1 million women didn’t bother in the last general election, compared to 8 million men. that’s 1.1 million less. some of you thought i’d hate the pink van. but I don’t care about the pink van. although if it was me, i’d have drawn fannies and tits and cakes all over it as well.
harman’s a good egg. she does a lot behind the scenes. this isn’t important.

number two.

I saw a buzzard yesterday.

number three.

did you see helena bonham carter with that massive fish?

that’s enough chat now I think.
