A bit of Friday fun with moquette! Looking back at this shoot, where Andreya tried her best to go incognito in her camouflage jackets, blending into the colourful upholstery of the Circle, Bakerloo and Victoria lines.

I want to watch Belgium v Türkiye in the football and eat my dinner and enjoy a beer but the cat is asleep on my lap, so I will just have to stay hungry and miss the match I suppose.

I also wish pro-EU people stopped making the argument that Brexit was bad because it increased non-EU immigration. There are plenty of reasons why Brexit is bad. This is not one, and it makes you sound massively racist.

Coincidentally, I was reminded today how much I hated Titanic and its dreadful, unconvincing “love story”, while reading Mark Kermode’s very entertaining “The Good, The Bad and the Multiplex”.

PRINT OF THE DAY I do sometimes photograph things other than the London Underground! Today we’re heading up to Scotland & the brilliantly yellow West Street Station on the Glasgow Subway. I love the futuristic look of these trains in this composite photo. If you like this print see link attached

Great piece which has got me feeling suite emotional. I also yipped when I heard the news, though in the privacy of my own home. Like Eoghan, I haven’t vibed with the Bailly bar and I will greatly miss BBP Dansaert when it closes its doors.

For the people interested in Bulgarian history. It has also implications on the relationship with North Macedonia who also claim Samuel to be theirs. www.medievalists.net/2026/09/gree...

🎯 'A man raped her' instead of 'she was raped.' Have you ever read a headline that reads "A bank was robbed by a suspect?" Nope. It's "A suspect robbed a bank."
Christina Ricci in front of a patterned wall with the text: Maybe we should start talking about how many men out of 3 will sexually assault someone... instead of how many women out of 3 will be assaulted. Lets shift the ownership..

Paddling (canoeing) across Windermere today, into the teeth of a pretty stiff Force 3 wind - lumpy, and just this side of whitecaps - I came across a swimming squirrel, looking very stressed. Not a planned swim, I'm guessing. It was 300m to either shore, so I'm not sure s/he was going to be okay.

Asked my mum, in her late 70s, what she was up to and her activities for the next 48 hours feel like a microcosm of British pensioner life: Morris dancing, flu vaccination, a funeral, friend coming over to do jigsaws, folk music night.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

ESPECIALLY if you have tenure. Years after I left a toxic grad school situation, I sailed with a member of my former dept. He said he was glad I was doing well now, bc he saw what my old advisor was doing to their students. It was all I could do not to yell 'THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING?"

Good to see scooters and bicycles blocking my exit from the Brussels-Antwerp train last night. I'm sure that's not dangerous or inconvenient at all.

Morning. Last week I found out for the first time that Champion The Wonder Horse (stalwart black and white 50s schedule filler up to 1993) was a spin-off. Champion was Gene Autry’s horse, and it was a 1955 cash in on the success of the Gene Autry Show. He’s like horse Frasier.

Every time I try to talk about deaf cats, my phone corrects it to "dead." It's getting quite awkward. "Have you got any dead cats that need a home?" "Would you consider adopting a dead cat?" "He can't live with kids, he's dead"

Brexit, the Sitcom Mr Brexit no longer enjoys life as Europe’s most divorced man. Rooting for his phone amongst the discarded cans he texts his ex wife to tell her he’s willing to move back in with her but there will have to be changes. She will have to change. He stares at the phone waiting.

The first episode of WORZEL GUMMIDGE (1979) sees the loveable scarecrow come alive for the first time, and it's directed like a scene from an Italian zombie film. Lucio Fulci would approve!

Certain kinds of smart people tend to have a "sexy apocalypse" problem when it comes to thinking about risk. E.g. skynet turning everyone in paperclips, while bad, is also *kind of cool and fun* at the same time. Where the reality is that most actual disasters are both stupid and disappointing.
