    I see the Mighty Mogg is taking ground fire from lefties for pointing out that the

    Fire Brigade's advice to stay put during the Grenfell fire ran counter to basic common sense - which it obviously did.

    Will Labour set fire to another block of flats during this election campaign, I wonder? After all, it worked well for them last time.

    Yes. You left out the bit about how Jeremy Corbyn is definitely going to set fire to a tower block full of brown people in the next few weeks for some reason, though.

    I get quite nostalgic when I hear of the Grenfell Tower fire. Which isn't something many people can say.

    I was driving home from Cornwall. it was a beautiful day, traffic conditions were fine, the road was dry, I was listening to 'Frenchman's Creek' and planning a barbecue for the evening. What a delightful day it was. :sigh:

    I take it you cancelled the barbecue on grounds of insensitivity?

    It really didn't penetrate my consciousness - I heard about it on the news but my mind and heart were so filled with the dashing Jean-Benoit and the beastliness of Rockingham that I simply couldn't process grubby current affairs.

    No. You may keep your Russians. As novelists go, there is no one to touch Daphne.

    'Seems that I was busy doing something close to nothing
    But different than the day before'

    'Met a dwarf that was no good, dressed like Little Red Riding Hood'

    Walkin' round like you're Pretty Boy Floyd'

    She's underrated and out of fashion, certainly. However, I think you may be overstating matters somewhat.

    On another note, your nostalgic memory sounded like a very English, middle-aged version of the first verse of Tom Petty's 'Running Down A Dream'.

    Tom Petty - now there's underrated.

    That's a decent call, actually.

    I've always found Tom Petty a little bit like greg mitchell's description of lesbian porn; like Wiltord, it goes round and round in circles and nothing really happens. I always want Tom's song to get on with it and do something!

    Meanwhile, I was picturing myself more in a Jungleland scenario.

    The Rangers had a homecoming in Harlem late last night
    And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine
    Over the Jersey state line
    Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge
    Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain
    The Rat pulls into town rolls up his pants
    Together they take a stab at romance
    And disappear down Flamingo Lane
