But this is a lovely thing, featuring scoutmaster wonder dog, Duggee and the Squirrels. https://www.b3ta.com/links/World_Cup_anthem >> French Métro names taken literally << "Photographs acting out the names of Paris Métro stations," helpfully points out notoolsovernight. A French photographer and chums have a good time acting out these names - a nice change to see this kind of thing when it isn't on the London Underground. http://golem13.fr/janol-apin-stations-metro >> Depeche Mud << Extremely raw early set from Basildon's premier synth-based entertainment troupe. https://www.b3ta.com/links/Have_a_little_bit_of_De... >> ASCII art tattoos << Upside: A very cool effect.
