Words of the Day for July 2025
People leave us lovely words in the amusingly named dick, along with short, factual and concise definitions. No really. Here's this month's words so far...

Cakes
In a bowl, cream together 4oz/125g caster sugar and 4oz/125g butter
Break two eggs into a glass or jug, and beat together with a fork. Add the egg to the butter and sugar a bit at a time, stirring it in thoroughly each time
When all the egg is mixed in, sieve 4oz/125g self-raising flour into the mix, and stir in thoroughly
Spoon the bixture into cake cases, and bake in a pre-heated oven at 190C/375F/Gas Mark 5 for ten to fifteen minutes, until they’re golden brown
Then try lots of variations, like adding 2oz of sultanas, or glace cherries, or cocoonut. Try adding spices, or replace a quarter of the flour with cocoa powder. And experiment with icing!

humans
Bipedal denizens of a largely unremarkable but not entirely unpleasant ball of rock, floating aimlessly somewhere in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable Western Spiral arm of
the Galaxy. Their greatest accomplishments include the construction of the Pyramids at Giza, their triumphant defeat of gravity in 1961, and the cancellation of an (un)popular science fiction series called ‘Enterprise’. Their greatest failures, which significantly outnumber their achievements, include the development of musical ringtones, their evolutionary (and rather vulgar) method of reproduction, the ‘mullet’ hairstyle, and the gratuitous and belligrerently spiteful existence of Gail Porter.
The greatest human mystery remains, of course, Lisa Riley.

Brian Haw
All round groovy guy who Scott met at the demos against the Iraq War in 2003
When he started in June 2001, Mr Haw, a father of seven from Worchestershire, had only a few signs bearing the names of young children who had died as a result of economic sanctions on Iraq. He supplemented these with carefully painted banners pointing out to both the politicians and the public the huge suffering that the sanctions policy, supported by the UK government supported, inflicted on the people of Iraq.
Over the months, people began to visit him and bring placards they themselves had made. With the events of 11 September 2001 and the declaration of the ‘war on terrorism’, Brian’s protest grew in size and reputation. He has had numerous visitors from all over the world, many leaving placards with messages of peace, helping to create what is now a powerful display which challenges the government’s foreign policy. The international media have broadcast his message around the world in documentaries, news reports and interviews.
In October 2002 he won a major legal victory when the High Court refused to grant an injunction to Westminster Council to remove him from Parliament Square. The judge ruled that Mr Haw was exercising his right to freedom of speech and the pavement obstruction was not unreasonable.
Mr Haw said, "I have had the people of the world on this pavement. Peace is more popular than Parliament."
He added "Contrary to the hopes of the government that protest will end now that the war on Iraq is said to be over, I will not go away. Its not over for people in Iraq – thousands more of the people are now dead and the occupiers are still there. I feel so incensed – we are talking about dropping bombs on people, on murdering people. Its not enough to say we don’t mean to – it doesn’t make it alright. And the murderers are allowed to profit from
their crimes. How can humanity, the world, allow this blatant smash and grab?
"They went ahead no matter how much people protested and we are now being asked to just accept it. I can’t accept it. Here is a picture of a little girl with the back of her head blown off. All you have to do is put yourself in the place of this girl’s parents. They will never thank us for ‘liberating’ them. And now we have ‘saved’ them, we are selling them water."

Brian Haw can be visited in Parliament Square at any time.

Taking tea in the afternoon
Anna, the Seventh Duchess of Bedford, is credited with originating the afternoon tea in the 1800s to ward off the hunger pangs between lunch and dinner. Earlier, the Earl of Sandwich had thought of putting fillings between two slices of bread. These two culinary inventions led to the popular custom of taking tea and refreshments in the afternoon.

The List
The list has been around for a good number of years now — set up as the Mark Thomas Mailing List, he’s close to our heart but not the only thing The List is about. Comprising some 100 odd chatty left wing types, it’s a great place to meet people and discuss what’s going on. Also I don’t think there’s ever been a question asked of it that The List’s collective mind hasn’t been able to answer.

cigarettes
Cigarettes are good for the lungs, increase your sexual prowess and make you appear devastatingly attractive to members of the opposite (or indeed same) sex. They help to fund the NHS, they are nice to kittens and are suitable for enjoyment by all ages.
