I need a Quack, Quack, Volg T-shirt!

Pretty sure I read a quote from Ian Gibson somewhere explaining that Q. Twerk stands for 'cute work'.

Remember Top Deck? I loved the shandy and lager and lime ones but couldn't stand the cider one. Maybe because it wasn't as good as the real thing.

I've pretty much just die-harded myself through the whole 50 episodes in a matter of weeks. Conrad and Fox, you ever thought about just going daily on this thing? I think we'd all be a lot happier.

Welcome Conrad. I love your podcast, it's brightened up my daily commute and I'm thrilled you're going twice weekly. Even more thrilled that it sounds like the podcast is here to stay.

It's my new favourite podcast, I absolutely love it. I also really want a "quack, quack Volgs" t-shirt now.

Good grief. 402 posts in 13 years. I came, I lurked, I chatted a bit and then I went back to lurking.

Thanks TheToon. I went for black in the end after also asking my 11 yr old son for his advice. He just looked at me like I was an idiot and pointed out anybody dressed totally in space blue riding around on a disco bike deserves everything they get.

I just can't decide. I have black uniform Dredd so the black lawmaster makes sense but the disco blue one looks so good. What do you think?

That the devil lived in our toilet. Our bathroom was located right at the top of our stairs and I was convinced if I looked up the stairs I would see him sitting there on the bog, all in black wearing a black top hat. Having a poo.

I let my two boys, 13 and 10 make their own 'let's play minecraft/terraria' videos (ie, screen recordings of them playing the games and commentating on what they're doing) and then upload those to YouTube channels I control. Like most of these things they were really into this for a couple of months but have now moved onto other obsessions. Now this style of video isn't too bad because they're obviously not appearing in them themselves but even these still receive the odd negative/offensive comment.

Similarly all of my eldest's friends seem to be on Instagram and he asked if he could have an account, more because he didn't want to feel left out rather than because he desperately wanted to have one. Eventually we agreed on the condition that Jules and I both followed his account so we could monitor it. He's posted one picture and hasn't been on there since.

Not sure what point I'm trying to make really but Jules and I feel that this stuff isn't going away anytime soon so we need to let our boys dip their toes in but make sure we're there to keep an eye on it too. It's very tricky though.

What's green and smells? Tharg's bum.

This is great news, we're gonna see stuff in the Christmas Prog. Exciting times!

Just out of interest, how have you reached that conclusion?

When is Pye going to be drawing a strip again and who writes damage report?
