Trolls thought they were damaging our business. Turns out they were writing the copy for our next product range, the #TrollTax collection of t-shirts, coasters, mugs, tees and book wrapping paper. With profound thanks to @BenSettle for his bbooks.co/CopyTroll book👏

There is always that one person that will try to politicise everything - And this time it's a senior BBC employee. The County is Londonderry, the name it has held since 1613 - If he wanted to be historically accurate he could have given it it's former name of County Coleraine.

“One toilet in the bar and yet everyone was in at the time. It’s just ridiculous. It was a wee bit scary actually. Like a bloody cult.” The words of one of Robert McCartney’s sisters about the wall of silence surrounding her brother’s murder.

"Desmond (Dessie) Grew PIRA was the main suspect identified by German authorities for the shooting of six-month-old Nivruti Islania and her father, RAF Corporal Maheshkumar "Mick" Islania, in October 1989 near RAF Wildenrath, West Germany. Grew was killed by undercover Special Air Service soldiers in County Armagh in 1990 along with fellow PIRA terrorist, Martin McCaughey who was also a Sinn Féin councillor."

Please tell me I’m not the only person who performs open heart surgery on a microwave burger before cooking it. Surely we all do this? Or have I been living a lie?🍔

I cook it till its got 25 seconds left. Open it. Keep the top bit out and add my cheese slice. Whack it back in for 25 seconds and the slice melts nicely.
