I've seen 6 of these live. I've booked three of them for gigs. I nearly reversed over the grave marker of one when I spotted it in a municipal cemetery.

New candidate for the most cringeworthy TV advert - the “Chums” ad with the dancing couple….

I think Meta’s subscription plans will be its undoing. It’s no use for small businesses or accounts if they’ve got to pay for previously free functionality. Awful for small creatives.

Enjoyed seeing & photographing the runners in the Potters’ ‘Arf marathon - including three ex-students who were PE averse when in school!!

On the other occasion I took my youngest niece who was at Hallam Uni at the time - she now lives in Sheff & teaches in Rotherham. She was blown away by it.

I had a conversation with Aly about his Cajun experience when he and Phil played Biddulph - he said that he observed a lot of racism that he obviously wasn't happy about.

Saddened to hear of the passing of Scottish music writer Paul Kerr. He was such a positive and supportive chap.

He’s a classic case of an in-denial angry man. I think you’re right.

Got a chance to buy tickets for Eng/NZ ODI mid-September 27 - but with tickets ranging from £67.50 to £92.50 for something that could easily be rained off, I didn’t bother.

Why not the ONS? That would perhaps make it more impartial than think-tanks and pollsters who all have some form of agenda.

I rated A Bona Fide Killer (2026–2026) 8/10 #IMDb Top notch K-Drama with a mix of all the stuff that makes the wider genre so appealing. The only thing missing was time travel!

Indeed - if they get expelled and have to start in L2 they can buy their way back in three years - four at most. Ten years with a -30+ points yearly reduction would make it harder for them and the only way of getting into Europe would be a cup.

It didn’t take any amount of brain cells to work out that Man City basically bought their way to success, legally or not. Most fans would love that for their own club and wouldn’t complain.
