Spending today at a menopause event in London. I figure if my other half has to be going through this then the least I can do is find out more about it myself.

Tickets went on sale at 12.00pm. I clicked "Join the queue" as 12.00pm ticked over. How are there nearly half a million people already ahead of me?!

Why is buying a new car so ridiculously complicated sometimes? And why do some salespeople think that they're doing you a favour?! Mate, not only is it literally your job, you'll get paid a shit load of commission just because I decided to call you. The least you can do is be helpful and polite!

This is genuinely something I’d love ro see in person - something about touching history.

My four kids went to the cinema recently to watch Spiderman and it cost them £58, so I'm definitely checking to see if my local one is doing this promotion.

If you've just realised you might not be able to watch the semi-final because you've got golden circle tickets to see System of a Down and Queens of the Stone Age on Wednesday night then that would be a hell of a coincidence, as so did I.

KFC advertising has to be some of the maddest shit on tv. None of it makes sense, and then they change it to something even weirder.

It’s alright, though - they’ll suspend the red card for Quansah for a year so he can play in the next round, right? Right?!

Pro tip: Hot water bottles can work both ways - the water inside doesn't need to be hot. Pop some water in one and stick it in the freezer. You're welcome.

Small detail - just noticed that the NZ shirts mention both Ireland and England, which means they’ve used the same shirts for both series. Thrifty.

Isn't it mad that going a day without buying anything is a massive achievement these days? I half expect only being allowed to breathe with a subscription soon. That company would probably unironically call itself Lorax or some shit like that.

I keep seeing the fact that the new grass smell is actually a distress signal that grass releases when injured, warning nearby plants of danger. What the fuck are those nearby plants going to do about it? Run away?!

Just started “training” for the five peaks challenge I’m doing in six weeks. All five UK and Irish peaks in 48 hours. So a walk around my neighbourhood in Kent for an hour and a half is perfect prep, right?!

My son is playing in a tournament on the PS5 right now. I'm seriously tempted to start downloading some massive file to ruin his connection, so he gets an idea of what it's like for me to be on work calls which start glitching as soon as he gets home from school

I've been roped into doing the Five Peak Challenge in June, and the bastards organising it just told me that I should exercise beforehand so I am able to make it round. Fuckers never mentioned this when I signed up.
