The beeb are clearly committing an offence against mankind in barring access to the 'BBC Sounds' app.

Your device may not be very old about 2 years say, for them to decide you can't have it.

Oh dear, can't you get it on your cat's whisker?

I've just looked at the BBC website to see what "BBC Sounds" is and they have a number of recommendations especially for me:-

RuPaul's Drag Race
Fashion Fix with Charli Howard
Sofie Hagen: How to Love Your Fat

Hmmm. I think I'll give it a miss

You have to laugh.

The BBC's drive today is to blame Boris for not leaving on time despite the blindingly obvious reality.

You could not make it up.

This is so BBC.

Just when you think the world can't get any dumber,
we pander to more prehistoric mumbo jumbo.

I don't really put much stock in anything with religious aspects to it, but there is something to be said for the fact that as soon as something becomes a tourist hot spot the life and uniqueness is fast drained out of it.

Well they've certainly got that one wrong. Hurdles are being put in his path left, right and centre.

There is always a balance about these things, if the rock is now closed does that also apply to the aboriginal people as well if so fair enough.

Yes, that's true.

On a slightly different and sombre note I am looking at a guided tour of Europe for next year which also includes an optional visit to Auschwitz.

Normally I am a decisive person but I have been wrestling with this one. I want to go to pay my respect but part of me feels uncomfortable at this type of tourism. I don't know the answer.

Its history never to be repeated.
Visitors and tourism keep the respect going for all of the victims.
How it would look with a huge padlock and chain across the gate is anyones guess.

I always have the energy to highlight bonkers thinking.

Pandering to superstitious claptrap for the sake of PC Brownie points is always deserving of criticism.
