While baking yesterday I managed to burn the fingertips on my dominant hand. But it’s fine because I’m ambidextrous.
Also, I totally meant to put this toothbrush up my nose.

Even more bizarrely, neither Catch The Sun by Doves nor Cryptik Souls Crew by Len appear anywhere in the TOTP Archives list of performances. Both artists are found, but there is no record of either of them playing those songs on #TOTP.

RE: #TOTP because I used it to set up the Now Playing bot. The first two tracks were S Club 7 - Reach, and Stephen Gateley - New Beginning.
And indeed that's what the TOTP Archives website confirms was on the original broadcast back in the year 2000: https://totparchive.co.uk/episode.php?id=1890
But if you go to the iPlayer version (https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0032wtl/top-of-the-pops-09062000), the first two tracks are Len - Cryptik Souls Crew, and Doves - Catch The Sun.
The rest of the stream then proceeds as per the broadcast version. How very strange.
