On a lighter note

A couple of years back I was asked by a school near where I used to live in Gloucestershire to open their school play, in a field. It's a small school, struggling with funds. I had a great night. I was asked to help again this year by joining in a rather terrifying evening of fire-walking to help raise funds. I have to say, it would be right up my street. (along with a parachute jump, always wanted to do that) (maybe next year!) Of course I have been in Spain and so unavailable to test my machismo.
What has become of integrity?

Hello everyone. I am writing this on Thursday morning having been to a wonderful film last night. The Joker. I went as a BAFTA guest, not realising that it was the unofficial London premiere. Always nice when you go to pick up the tickets, (Anna came with me) and they say, "Oh, lovely to see you Mr Parker" and, "Would you mind doing a photo call?" You know me, if I hear a camera shutter in the distance I go running. What was so exciting was that Todd Phillips (Director) and JOAQUIN PHOENIX!!!!!! was right behind me and they were next in front of the press. I am such an enormous fan of his. I think he is the American version of Dan Day-Lewis. A transformative actor who deserves his place up there with the greats. I mean the Spencer Tracey, Jimmy Stewart level greats. And the film.... oh my..... That is an extraordinary piece of work. An opus. I didn't know what to expect, but I had thought that it would be stuffed with special effects and possibly even a "sold out" JP, but no. This is genuinely AMAZING. Rather like Roma last year, this should win all the OSCARS. Roma didn't because of the politics of Netflix in the world of movies, but this must surely be a shoe-in for the lead actor. And a great fun Q&A after. Both he & the director were terrific.

Just to say

Thank you, so many of you, for writing and supporting my position on the bunch of liars now sitting in cabinet. I just want to say, that I am even more passionate about it today, and that I can't respond to any emails as my server doesn't want to do that. I can't send a sausage, let alone an email. So, please don't think it rude of me, but here I am thanking you anyway.
I do think, by the way, that if we could persuade Jeremy to stand aside, there would be a huge majority against Boris.

How dare they NOT resign?
It's a shocking indictment of where Boris Johnson has led us as a nation.
