Had a days fly fishing tuition last Sunday. It was the one angling discipline I was yet to try. Loved it. Got myself kitted out with a rod, reel and a handful of flies this weekend. Can't wait to get out! #angling

Somewhere on LinkedIn, somebody has just looked at an enormous Ixworth cockerel, read about the possible collapse in the economic value of human intelligence and thought: 👍 Which, to be fair, is about as LinkedIn as it gets.

I'll take the point. We looked woeful at times and the subs didn't make any impact. 3 weeks off now to get it sorted #lufc

One for the Bard "At half-time, hope wore white beneath the light, One-nil ahead, and all seemed well and fair; We dreamed, perhaps, of victory by night, While Chelsea wondered what had happened there. So six we shipped, and six more reasons why: Chastening, Leeds — and what a grim reply." #lufc

Just popped out to get this week's copy of The Angling Times from the local supermarket. Wife rings and asks me to buy some Marigold washing up gloves at the same time.... Now that's not going to look in the slightest bit dodgy is it? 🙄

We can't seem to keep hold of the ball in their half. Looked a bit better just before the break but need to switch on fully in the second half #lufc

Security alert in Welsh. Just as well the English version came afterwards or could have lit my disposable BBQ in that tinder dry copse next to my house. That said, good to see the system works even if it did a bit like "Threads" for a moment there.

So if Nmecha had scored in the 5th minute of the second 60minutes he would have scored before DCL on that basis!? I hope I never see an 'event' like that again, total nonsense. #lufc

Not sure why but the first thing I read was Rita Ora saying "I've looked for my phone in all the wrong places". Probably a reflection on me rather than Rita
