It's become apparent to me that so many people belong to nothing and are constantly looking to belong to something but just cannot find what they're looking for.

I went to Regent's Park this morning to see the new Frieze sculpture exhibition and bumped into Matyáš Chochola, one of the artists. We had a nice chat and he agreed to pose for me next to one of his sculptures.

A Bank Holiday Monday trip to @nationaltheatre.org.uk to see The Story. Interesting play, lots of twists and turns, well worth watching.

I was at Baker Street but there are trains on the Metropolitan line because of a fire at Neasden. So I walked to Marylebone Station and there are no trains from there either as there is a fire near Harrow on the Hill. So I'm stranded!

Well that #severealert on my phone and the accompanying buzzing sound literally made me jump. Was there an advanced warning or is it a genuine emergency?

Tried but failed to get a photo showing the solar #eclipse in London. It was spectacular to see though.

A sign I'm getting old. I have a drawer full of random cables that I don't use any more but refuse to throw away because I'm convinced one day I might need them.

I've not watched much of this year's Commonwealth Games and I don't know much about netball but that match was epic. Well done Jamaica.

Last night I went to see Tender at the Bush Theatre in West London. A fascinating and original play. A love story with elements of horror and psychological thriller. Well worth seeing.

Just back from watching Sherlock Holmes at the Regent's Park Open Air Theatre. A very cold night for May, started to rain midway through the second act and the play was a bit of a confusing mess. Disappointing evening all round.

I feel like I age 10 years every time I watch Arsenal play. Clear arm across Raya so it was the right decision to disallow the goal. Important win but please next time do it with a little less drama! #WHUARS

Such sad news about the death of Alex Manninger, I have fond memories of watching him in goal at Arsenal's Highbury stadium. www.itv.com/news/2026-04...

I woke up this morning and immediately checked my phone and was relieved to see that nuclear war hadn't started in the Middle East. We do not live in normal times any more.

It's hard not to admire Roy Hodgson for his desire and commitment to football, returning to management in the Championship at the age of 78.

Keir Stramer has just made the UK a legitimate target for Iran by supporting Trump and his illegal war. Utterly disgraceful.

Why are we providing security for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and not for The Duke and Duchess of Sussex?🤔

This is an appalling escalation. Starmer is making the UK complicit in this illegal war.

The ego of members of the Royal Family has no end. Why does everything have to be named after them? King Charles III England Coast Path is the latest stroking of the Royal ego.
