Amusing typo
I guess once you’ve had them printed, you might as well stick them up around the neighbourhood still. (spotted the other week in a bus stop out on the main road near our place – probably would’ve been less noteworthy when I lived in Soho, but in NW10?!)
Blog (HUH!) – what is it good for?
This blog came screaming into the world on November 25th 2003. https://www.jasonbstanding.com/2003/11/2003-11-25-ok-lets-see-how-we-go/ Many things have changed since then.

Ultimate Bacon
So, Liz bought us bacon for bacon sandwiches this morning. Ultimate bacon. I said, “Babe, you’ve bought Ultimate Bacon”. She said, “Of course. I’m not having any of that Penultimate Bacon in the house”. What a legend.
