Despite the ongoing incompetence of the FIA that tried their best to mess it up, Sepang shows once again while a Malaysian Grand Prix should absolutely be on the calendar #F1

This farce is going to rob us of a wet race isn’t it #F1

AI is not taking over anything any time soon given they’ve already proved they can’t even run F1 engines in the wet!

Maybe first time ever the Safety Car has ended up mid-pack. Most chaotic and entertaining formation laps I’ve ever seen #Sepang #F1

Rain has arrived in Sepang, are we finally going to get a wet race!?

Dan @d-storm7.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Love F1 being back at the Sepang circuit but so far we’ve gone without a drop of rain. If we get through the race as well without any then will be incredibly disappointing! One of the great things about Sepang was the unpredictable monsoon rains!

Unless something crazy happens or some curveball Richard is going to go out burning very brightly at the first Round Table. Then again I said that about Alan Carr. It’s all or nothing. #CelebrityTraitors

V lucky to be at the Genesis Cinema tonight for a special screening of Beautiful Thing in 35mm film for its 30th anniversary with director Hettie Macdonald taking questions. The film was so important to me when I first saw it many years ago & means a lot to finally see it on the big screen.
Projection of Beautiful Thing onto the cinema screen. Director Hettie Macdonald taking a Q&A on the stage in front of the cinema screen with the Beautiful Thing projected onto it.

Great British Railways to rethink how new trains are paid for
Great British Railways will weigh public ownership against leasing for future orders, although existing contracts will continue.

Having the F1 Grand Prix on a Saturday has really made my weekend go all askew, it’s like the period between Christmas and New Year, I don’t know what day it is or what’s going on.

Friday night musings: School detention is basically state sponsored kidnapping, imprisonment without trial and having committed no crime. It’s amazing that the practice has been allowed to continue for so long given it’s such an infringement on civil liberties.

Can someone tell me why in the 21st century we still cannot order room service in a hotel by app but have to pick up a corded landline phone and actually call someone!?!

Tried out using a Lime e-scooter today. Think I must have looked awkward and ungainly as it’s harder than it looks when you’ve got a heavy backpack on as well. But still much quicker than walking.

The link between dirty American money, dodgy selective polling, and the culture war has been known for years. That's who has bankrolled fringe bigoted groups in the UK for years. It is shockingly cheap to buy influence in our democracy and we clearly need tighter rules and stronger oversight.

One for all you train nerds... the gate to the Vatican train station, only opened when a train goes through which is not often.
Brick wall with large iron gate in it. A papal coat of arms is carved in stone above the gate. A few trees and blue sky in the background. Behind some green fencing railway tracks are just visible leading up to the gate.

It’s been such a long week, I’m knackered and I’m now I’m shuttling around Birmingham trying to get back to London as the West Coast Mainline is blocked around Coventry. I just want to go home and sleep in my own bed 😭

I forgot how much I hate Birmingham New Street, easily the most confusing station in the country and I travel by train a lot!

Coming through Birmingham on the train got my first view of the HS2 works on the approaches into what will be Curzon Street, its enormous a very impressive sight.

Great result for the Count with over 26% of the vote and way over expectations. Best performance by the bins since the Coalition brought in the huge local government funding cuts in 2010.

While I hope for but don’t expect an upset of earthquake proportions in the by-election, if it did happen it’s likely one reason will be that Count Binface is significantly higher up the ballot paper and that can make a difference.

Wondering if I’m living in a slightly alternate universe where there was no proper eclipse. None of the photos or video I’ve seen of the eclipse looked anything like what I had. You’d be hard-pressed to have said the sun was eclipsed at all and never really got dark or even dim.
