Happy New Year to all those who happen to find their way here and linger for a while, if only because their computer locked up.
Well, 2023 has certainly been another weird year so that’s a trend which seems to have become genuinely sustainable. Presumably 2024 is likely to be even weirder if we have a general election and “Sir” Keir Starmer slithers through the door of No.10 while his clone slithers out of the back.
I'm sure we'll see at least some difference if a new Labour cabinet gets its feet under the big shiny table.
Yes! we must mix with the herd; we must enter into their feelings; we must humour their weaknesses; we must sympathise with the sorrows that we do not feel; and share the merriment of fools.

Is it too early to wish everybody a Merry Christmas for 2024? Because I wonder if we might not end up wishing 2024 away as too awful to remember.
DJ - a very good point, Merry Christmas!
To you and yours too, good sir.
Happy New Year to AKH and everybody who calls in here.
I think DJ is right about 2024, so good luck. Resist the nonsense, don't pay the BBC licence, take the piss where it is merited, and keep coming back here for reassurance that not everyone is insane.
James - thanks and a happy and healthy New Year to you and yours. Keep the flag flying.
Sam - thanks and a happy New Year to you and yours down in Portsmouth. We'll resist the nonsense but there are encouraging signs of it creaking under a mounting weight of unreality. I hope.
Thank you for your missives. Happy New Year.
Sincerely.
Happy New Year to you and all from The Turrets!
This year is going to be tumultuous, with our certain changes in No10, and also the President Trump's spectacular win!
Doonhamer - and thank you for your comments. Happy New Year to you and yours.
Scrobs - Happy New Year and bring on the tumultuous!
