Friday! Five! in which I provide precisely 5 hard-won links to some things that I quite enjoy, and you click on them, and everybody's happy.

Some of our lovely contestants you may know, some you may not. It's all good.

So without further ado, join me down in the government yard in Trenchtown, friends, and revel in the linky goodness.
