Ronald Howard and H. Marion Crawford (who apparently had a drinking problem in RL) carry this series and imho … very well too. I did have another episode, Perfect Husband but the whole notion of defenceless woman/girl at the mercy of a cad/bounder I am certainly not watching, let alone for entertainment. This is not saying females are angels themselves … well you know all this.
Note to all … this is shaping up as a frenetic Monday as usual, housework day, so it’s going to be a bit piecemeal in the afternoon in particular.
(0937) IYE’s comment and a few others are in the sidebar. (0952)
15. Are our “guests” now declaring open season on the humans?
… plus the kids throwing rocks etc. in sympathy? What shape does societal breakdown look like?

Think I missed this one … worth a look:
“How broken is the UK Prison Service? Alex Belfield gives his opinion after nearly three years an inmate. (20 minutes)”
There’s also DAD’s set of mugshots over there … my mistake, I was referring, not to Ep perps but to Reform doing similar with Restore mugshots … that’s what that one’s about.
13. US situation but still a fair general question
12. There was footage attached
… as described below … the perp was still kicking after the three shots though.
“Man lures cops with fake 911 call, then ambushes them in Bellevue 38-year-old Mohamed Morray Bangura made a bogus 911 call reporting an argument at a transit center, then ambushed responding Bellevue police officers by pulling a kitchen knife and attacking one. Two officers arrived and contacted Bangura, who was wearing a beanie and a surgical mask pulled down. Bodycam video shows Bangura charging an officer, slashing him in the face, and st<>bbing him in the back twice. A second officer fires three rounds, striking Bangura. The officer who was injured has since been released and is recovering. He (perp?) survived, was treated at Harborview Medical Center, then booked into King County Jail on $5 million bail. He is currently awaiting a competency evaluation.”
11. Many questions still
My questions are … why did it take GB News so long and the constant question …how on earth can the MSM get away with their behaviour?
Wake up, America—this is what shopping in the UK looks like among all the Muslims taking it over. If we don’t do something about the infestation of these Muslim cities and Muslim people in office in our schools, this is what we’re going to end up looking like. So wake up,… pic.twitter.com/u5mr6xNW5U
Just a few takeaways … there’s quiet Vicky again, observing all. Also … Cocksworth? As in “it’s more than my …”? How about Emma Dunwell? Am I wrong to suspect a certain poetic licence in these monikers? My “yet” was in response to Xeno’s: “Off to the #Office today, amazingly, it’s not raining!”
7. In one of those word salad speeches
AOC: “My favorite part is when they said that the Spanish language came from Spain. I believe that the Mexicans would like to have a word.”
Also from Andrew Bridgen, whence Steve found the items:
Ben Habib of Advance UK endorses Rupert Lowe and Restore Britain. A sensible decision which shows political maturity and selflessness to merge the parties.
I replied: “Absolutely. I can just about stand the TUA travel ditty … at the other end is anything with the wrong demographic for the scene.”

2. An amateur news service?
If you gradually slide into such a role on a blog, it requires certain things which “just an outlet for a blogger’s opinions” do not fully cover. Mind you, the reader has his own way of finding diverse opinions or even bias confirmation … it can be called blogrounds, often first thing in the morning.
Which is fine for many readers, including the rounds of the MSM. Something which a blogger with aspirations to cover far and wide from an antiWoke slant … what he discovers … is that regulars start feeding in reports, and like Kate at Small Dead Animals (blogrolls, fifth column there), it’s mainly men who overtly take over that role.
The female likes to find a warm, comfortable nest though from where to do her fearless Amelia warrior stuff and X is one such nest … there are females everywhere in that colony, from the outspoken (useful and useless) … to the more reticent, the “reposter”, in this case below … “Missy”:
If you were once, say in your day job, a junior headmaster, then a prep school head, you are going to be in contact with the female almost constantly, inc. at home and you quickly find the most astute ones, the ones who notice fine detail, plus the children who also notice things, a bit like the Baker Street irregulars.
So I was evaluating Missy … a bit over a thousand followers, similar number that she follows … and that in itself says something … lack of narcissism for a start, not one of those females out to attract simps and those who think with their tadgers … seems Brit oriented, ultra reticent to show herself, likes to observe … and among those are some of the most useful bellwethers from long experience.
One I always look out for as a reposter is Vicky, one of the original, fearless Kippers, plus Inese, delicate and dainty, I bet with rooms full of accumulated elegant items … she’s a fellow pureblood. Most men pass by in pursuit of, for example, the artful haggis up hill, down glen, hot in pursuit with the hounds.
Here’s one of the morsels Missy captured:
“Hillary is leaving out one very important detail… Clinton: 2 million with no protests. Obama: 5 million with no protests. Trump: 600K with PROTESTS and RIOTS. This is all manufactured by the Democrats to stop Trump. They are causing the violence.”
Morsels all over the place.

a) The administrative court of Nîmes ordered the mayor of Robion, a town in the Vaucluse department, at the beginning of the month to remove a wooden cross located on the town’s outskirts. The mayor has announced he will appeal the decision….
b) What do you think of this email to nietspE?
“Hi Jeffrey, it’s Anna, Caroline’s daughter and Jack Lang’s granddaughter.
I’ve been working at a summer camp for a month now, but I’m really struggling there, and so are two of my friends. They’re being really mean to us. So I was wondering if we could stay with you in New York from Friday the 7th to Sunday the 9th….
c) The bureaucracy in France is mad, stupid, wearisome.
Having lived in Haute-Savoie since the age of three, 23-year-old Archie Morrissey’s dream of joining the prestigious Marseille naval fire brigade has been abruptly halted.
Born in London but raised in the Giffre Valley, the young man was denied French citizenship, a prerequisite for applying….
d) The Eps**n Files and the 100 Most Powerful Figures.
JH: As someone pointed out yesterday, such a list, with no context, with perps mixed in with those only discussed from a distance, is next to useless, as Pammy well knows.
I’ve heard some more recent numbers by them … in fact since the Covid troubles … and they certainly took awhile to get it back together again … the jauntiness, the sense of fun was not there imho. Don’t forget the vaxx factor either.
The singer Erica made to go solo with Shay’s help, then there were the New Orleans authorities who made it clear they were not wanted on the street, which had been their milieu. They did gigs in closed spaces, they went overseas, e.g. to Toulouse in France, they seemed to need money, the playing wasn’t as “on song”, again imho, as if they’d lost their mojo.
“This noir B thriller from 20th Century Fox shows the temptations that the police are under. William Gargan stars and plays a doggedly honest cop who has a homicide literally dropped on his doorstep at the precinct headquarters. It’s almost like someone was taunting the cops to solve this one.
The victim in Behind Green Lights was a seedy private detective who had a nice sideline in blackmail and no one really is going to mourn his passing. But the case is loaded with political implications because Carole Landis, daughter of the reform candidate for mayor was seen leaving the victim’s apartment.
The largest newspaper in town is supporting the current administration and Roy Roberts says that the easiest thing in the world for Gargan to do to advance his career is pick up Landis and book her. At least until the election is over which will be in a few days. Something about Roberts sticks in Gargan’s craw. He could easily justify holding Landis and helping his career, but he won’t do it.
There’s a nice array of suspects and by definition performances. There are two keys here, a very sleazy medical examiner played by Don Beddoe and a bag lady played by Mabel Paige. Between the two of them the real story comes out.
Behind Green Lights bears no small resemblance to Detective Story in structure. Most of the action takes place in the police station. This film is nicely paced with a few good comic touches. I can’t mention them because they are within the plot structure and not just added on. This noir film is a good one to check out.”
