Banned by Frankie Boyle, and other diary round-ups

Being a round-up of nonsense I may have noted on Twitter and Facebook but forgotten to put in this more 'permanent' form. Beginning with me being banned from following Frankie Boyle on Twitter...



No, me neither. I was alerted to this when The Guardian wrote a piece about Frankie's Twitter commentary on the Thatcher funeral, which I totally missed as a result (and two days later it really didn't have the same impact). Why would a broadcaster ban individuals from following their programme? We may never know. But, after Tramadol Nights, that's a second strike for Frankie. One more and he's out of my good books.

Private Eyes on eBay

Ever wanted to see how little interest you can attract to eBay? Try putting half a dozen Private Eyes from 1967-1972 up there. Not a sausage.

All this fuss over the Thatcher funeral. Ted Heath just asked to be buried at sea, inserted into a small buoy.

The Socks' most watched video this week, oddly, is The Eden Hazard Song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTxIxM6oRbE … (not the Mrs Thatcher stuff. Fair enough)

If only he hadn't written upon it "Return to Sender" : Accused ricin-mailer is an Elvis-impersonater http://theatln.tc/12ptdFX

Not sure whether to do my celebratory Tour-Date-Confirmed dance for an "I'll ping some date options back to you". Think I'll hold fire.
