The Tube: BBC Two
Just finished watching the first episode of this six part docu series on the London Underground.
I love the tube. I enjoy riding it, I enjoy everything about it. So, this documentary is wonderful to me.
The episode dealt with repairing old tracks, and weekend travel and closures. There were several employees interviewed and featured and I just want to find all of them the next time I’m...

Well...
I think I’m developing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in my right hand.
FML.
Makes life doing pastries and having to lift bags of flour, sugar, heavy boxes and mixing bowls such a joy.

British Foods Galore!! →
I cannot stress enough how awesome this company is. I placed an order on Feb 17. The order was shipped out on Feb 21 and it arrived on my doorstep on Feb. 23.
It took 2 days to ship. 2 days from the UK to the US!! Merely from using ParcelForce and USPS Ground Mail. That’s incredible.
The selection of this store is terrific and they carry pretty much any department you could want,...

So, I may be ambitious, but rubbish....
but I just created a new Tumblr.
It’s fyHIGNFY and it’s dedicated to Have I Got News For You, the topical news panel show that’s been on BBC since September of 1990.
It’s open for submissions and hopefully people will actually follow it (or care to follow it).
HIGNFY is an awesome programme, spanning the last 22 years. It deserves much more credit and appreciation...

Unpopular Opinion Time #2
I’m really over seeing gifs with those ‘instagram’ and ‘hipstagram’ effects added to them. They aren’t creative or fancy. They just look like poor quality gifs.
Don’t wash the photo out. Don’t change the hues or add ‘warmth’. Just leave the gifs ALONE. Dear god please!
(Opinion based on what I’ve been seeing from Top Gear...

Private Eye has highest circulation in over 25... →
Yay Ian and the staff of Private Eye!!!
“I would like to say it was down to my brilliance but the razzmatazz over the 50th birthday helped and there have been some great issues. The anniversary issue was a great cover. It was a very special year and a lot of our stories came good, whether it was hacking, or PFI or the Hartnett [tax sweetheart deals] story.”

Heh heh...
The Top Gear Instant Complaint Letter I posted has over 2500 notes.
That makes me laugh.
Anonymous asked: Where did you download all those old HIGNFY episodes you post caps of? They used to have eps on youtube but sadly most were deleted before I managed to watch them.

Anglophile Problems: Unconventially attractive... →
anglophileproblems:
Here’s an Anglophile Problem I keep running into: my friends don’t understand why I find certain British men attractive. I show them pictures, gifs, or videos of my latest “crush” and they’re either horrified or confused. SO. FRUSTRATING.
So instead of making this a formal Problem, I am asking…

Unpopular Opinion Time!
I can’t even BEGIN to express how ANNOYED I get when I see the ‘have i got news for you’ or ‘hignfy’ tags on here have new posts listed in them, and when I go to check them, it’s someone raving about the BLOODY Benedict Cumberbatch episode!!!
There have been 362 episodes without him in it! And the fangirls go on and on about that one damn episode.
