I'm a teacher, a Spurs (THFC) season ticket holder. I cook, garden, read several books every week, love music, my husband and two border collies who are just about as crazy as I am.

I got up this morning, on the first day of our functioning solar installation, to discover that solar was providing 1/3 of our energy needs, before the sun had properly risen above the horizon. It feels like a new dawn.

In France people are rioting because schools are falling apart. In Spain people riot because house prices are too high. In the UK people riot because they don't like people with dark skin, while politicians egg them on. Meanwhile Tories plan to reduce regulations so new houses are even more shit

Husband and I discussing Andy Burnham's speech and his interview on the Today programme on R4 this morning. Our opinions are very positive, and summed up by my husband using the words: "He is the spirit of John Smith, come to finish the job he started." That sounds like a great summary of my views.

Back from restaurant celebrating David's 62nd birthday in a pub in the fag end of nowhere. Just leaving explaining why we'd waited a week to celebrate. Said that we couldn't go out last week as we left home the following morning at 7am to get to footie. Turns out her brother is Spurs ST holder too!

I really hate the way de Zerbi is gobbing off about Spurs. He definitely needs to put a sock in it.

Hivemind, which of our players are on international duty?

So getting knocked out away at Anfield is a lot more respectable than getting knocked out at home by Brighton…

That's us that is. On the Marine FC wall. I got shown around the ground by the Vice President. He was super kind.

I rarely have any sympathy for gooners, but I do think that an 8pm KO on a Saturday night in Sunderland is a complete fucker.

So, will we all traipse to Tottenham tomorrow and see another loss? I bloody hope not.

My MP (Tory) makes up the "data" he uses to whip up constituents, is only interested in a small number of topics (and constantly dabbles in areas that are not the responsibility of the MP) while making his extra income from a data centre cooling company. Send help!

What's up? I am on my way to Anfield for the first time in my life. I got a ticket in the allocation (all the season ticket holders who applied got them). Got a hotel booked so I'll be there on 15th. Excited!

I was killing time yesterday waiting for a hair appointment, so popped into a charity shop looking at CDs. I spotted 'The best of Bacharach and David's for £1. It's on the kitchen-fi right now. It feels like the best £1 spent ever!

I am still worrying about who will score for us this season, especially if Mikey Moore gets loaned out again and last year’s top scorer goes “home” to Everton. I don’t understand why this has not been a priority. Have I missed something?

Peter Stefanovic: Nigel Farage wants to - leave the ECHR - repeal the Equality Act - Strip back workers rights - Lift restrictions on exploitative zero-hours contracts - repeal the Renters’ Rights Act which abolishes “no fault evictions” He is not on your side You know what to do Clacton.

What's on my mind? Watching Spurs for the first time this season at 5pm tonight. Can't wait. I know, I know, I'm a glutton for punishment, but look on the bright side - new season ticket price includes free SpursPlay, which means I no longer need to shell out £35 to watch. 🙂

I am so pissed off. I thought we'd have stability and sense from Labour. First thing Burnham announces is new drilling licences. I HAD thought he was a good bloke, despite his route to Downing Street. Now I have lost all respect for him in a day.

@sveng.bsky.social on my way home from work yesterday, I listened to a BBC Radio 4 programme discussing the new legislation in the Netherlands, where citizens are now expected to protect the most vulnerable road users. It explained their new laws and how they are applied. A great listen.

One thing I don’t need is push notifications from the Beeb about the trooping of the colour. Irrelevant, expensive, pompous nonsense.

For the second time I am digitising my music collection from pre-CD days. I have a record player, but I have a car with capacity to play from a memory stick so digitised. I have all the Blondie albums, but wanted the greatest hits for the car. £2.99 from Music Magpie - best £2.99 ever spent!

I know it's probably not possible, but couldn't FIFA switch refs so Omar Aryan could officiate at a game in Canada or Mexico? It seems like an obvious solution to me.

Danny Kruger defending Farage and the Reform candidate for Makerfield by saying both the Farage bung and the comments about Carol Vorders happened before they were politicians so therefore perfectly fine private matters? Hell’s teeth these people have no morals.

Just seen the newest Wrangler jeans - thank the jeans gods of women everywhere - they actually fit men's bums and give us girls back the glory days of Nick Kamen's launderette... I have never been able to understand what's happened to jeans since then.

Hell's teeth. What a complete and utter waste of tax payers' money the king's speech is. It has no place whatsoever in a modern democracy. Let's get rid of the pathetic pantomime.

I am depressed. I should be at WHL and instead I am at home watching on the telly. I am worried that my lucky shirt hasn't been lucky at all this season, that my seat is empty, that I'm not there to cheer, sing and shout.
