This is a very slow election count, I am starting to have some sympathy for Californians now :P

... And, a minute after I hit "Post":

And as I typed that whine...

------------------------------------------------
03.11 BST
Burnham elected MP for Makerfield with majority of more than 9,000

Here are the key results.

Jake Austin, Liberal Democrats – 163

Andy Burnham, Labour – 24,927

Robert Kenyon, Reform UK – 15,696

Rebecca Shepherd, Restore Britain – 3,111

Sarah Wakefield, Green party – 308

Michael Winstanley, Conservative Party – 997

That means Burnham has won with a majority of 9,231
------------------------------------------------

So hopefully, bye-bye Kier.

81-Year-Old Weston Great-Grandad Says Grand Pier Fish and Chips Are the Best He’s Ever Had

I got my fish and chips finally.

Okay, so I've just learnt that it's apparently National Fish & Chips Day - and now I want some even though we've got dinner sorted for this evening already - but I've also seen online an awful lot of references to it being "National Fish & Chip Day". That's chip, singular. That feels so wrong. You don't have one chip. It's chips. I'm not accepting the singular form here.

Direi era dei pesci per l'abuso d'ufficio annacquato. Si sente l'odore della salsedine nel piatto. L'era dell'acquario arriva fra xmila anni. Forse la speranza di pandora cambia pianeta entro il 2027. Tipo la luna, per salvarla dalla sua commercializzazione spaziotemporale e dalla discarica di immondizia spaziale a universo aperto. Esiste il cielo nella Luna?
Cosi avremo due discariche al prezzo maggiorato di tre
