If I visit someone who has a TV on, I either try and migrate to a different location, step outside to smoke or tell them I forgot I had to paint the house and leave!

But there is only one kind of Rat comic, and that is one worth reading every day. Thanks for being a part of my morning. Rat always makes me smile.

I stopped watching tell-lie-vision decades ago but the BBC still harasses me to pay for a TV Licence. This year I decided to ignore their letters completely and they sent me increasingly threatening missives until they made an appointment for a visit. I was thrilled. Couldn't wait to have the opportunity to speak my mind about the garbage programmes and propaganda news rather than merely ticking a box which states that I do not own a tell-lie-vision.

They stood me up! I had bought a cake too. I can only assume that they checked out my file and finally read the letter I wrote to them about 20 years ago in which I demanded a refund of my licence money because I was Mrs Totally Disgusted of Essex at the time. Cowardly wankers would not give me another opportunity to sound off at them!

They totally missed out. It was a lovely jam and cream Victoria sponge. Delicious too! 🤣😂

So it's either stupidity or propaganda....I think I'll go grill a steak.

For sure! That's why I only watch stations that show old shows. The older, the better.
