Favourite headline of 2026, so far...
A man who rigged his house with "Home Alone-style" booby traps, including a flamethrower and tripwires, to protect his drugs enterprise has been jailed.

Need to fix it properly, but finally got my #OnAir sign to light up on the window when I'm on a work call. I only wish I could link it to my calendar, so it'd do it automatically. But, hey ho!
Red, on air light sign, to alert my family when I'm on a work call.

Picture from 6 years ago, when I put my wellies on the wrong feet 😂 I don't recall drink being involved, but wellies are quite accepting and forgiving of such mistake! Here's to a great 2026 for you all!

Sunset, looking towards St John's. Baby blue at the top with terracotta orange seeping up, in layers, fading, merging, blending.

Eight years ago, when I got the second most memorable #SecretSanta present! 😂 I've still got the bottle of Bucky. Saving it for a proper rock bottom! 😂
Secret Santa Scottish themed gift.
Tunnocks tea cakes, Famous grouse truffle chocolate bar, Tunnocks caramel bars, a whiskey miniature and a 500-750ml bottle of Buckfast!

Whoop whoop! Made the target once again! 11 months on the trot, quite literally. #AmRunning
50k monthly target, 52.26 miles achieved for July! July v June comparisons. Marginally faster, but still slower than I'd desire, but keeping out there which is the main point. The last 11 months I've achieved 50+ miles per month and will stick to that and push.
Looking at breaking the 62+ miles, to score 100k

Es Viernes!
Me wearing a 'Santo' the silver masked crusader of Mexican wrestling. Good Friday in Spanish is Viernes Santo. It's a joke, which gives me a perfect excuse to do the mask!

At #O2Arena for #YoungVoices #YVTuesday
The massive choir of thousands of children, multiple schools, that take 1/3+ of the seating of the O2 Arena in Greenwich! Me excited and shocked at the size of the choir and trying to see my child in that sea of children.

Clear winter sunset, very few clouds, darkness creeping down and orange, peachy yellow ebbs at the bottom. A tree in front of the brighter colours and the spire of St John's in the background.
