So @uksgmarathon.co.uk Blue 2026 is this weekend. Orgs should be doing last minute checks & making sure everything is good to go right? Naa. We are all at the Sonic Concert in London instead. 😂 Turns out it isn't just Glasgow that we all appear in. Soooon. <3 @huds601.co.uk @pazy160.bsky.social

Fancy seeing you lot of chaos gremlins here. It's almost like we organise this to the point of spreadsheets. 😂

This is incredible news. I remember being really jealous that Japan had mobile FFVII games when I was a kid. Can't wait to play this once translators do their thing. Thank you so much for your hard work @yuvi.app <3

London Trans Pride 2026. I hate that every year it's more important than ever for this march to happen but here we are again. Trans rights are human rights. We will live our lives. We will not go away quietly. We will resist. We will survive. We will not be erased. #transrights #transpride

You deserve the recognition. With everything that happened in my life & my foot injury @uksgmarathon.bsky.social would not have happened without you. Love you & @huds601.co.uk to bits. Can't wait to see what we do next. Hang on... I have a strange feeling... oh... that's... I have a bad idea. 🤣

Ok that was not on my bingo card for todays F1 GP. What a race. What a podium. Never thought I would actually feel emotional listening to the Italian national anthem but here I am happy to be proven wrong. Well done Lewis. Forza Ferrari. Now can McLaren speed up their development please. 😂

Emily Rowan (NanakiEmi) @nanakiemi.co.uk · 14/06/2026

A small break from our world cup TV marathon for the Barcelona F1 GP. Not a fun year to be a McLaren fan but hopefully Ferrari can give Mercedes a battle today and give us some excitement.

It’s a good thing the World Cup planners put the Scotland game at night, otherwise the fan sunburn situation would be a mass casualty event.

I just hope everyone who does attend a game, from the players & coaches, to the fans & TV crews from all over the world, all get to enjoy the moment. Be proud of what your teams have achieved, try & have fun but above all get home safe. It's terrifying that is even something we have to consider.

Emily Rowan (NanakiEmi) @nanakiemi.co.uk · 09/06/2026

Seriously USA how messed up are you? FIFA how have you let it get this bad? So much for our beautiful game. 😥 After Russia & Qatar we needed a normal event but this is even worse! As for Canada & Mexico - I'm sure you are incredible hosts but your legacy will be tarnished by this chaos. 💔

Scotlands 1st world cup since 98 & I'm struggling to be excited for it. Ticket & travel $$$ Visa chaos Bans on some teams fans Team staff being denied entry ICE at games Host at war with another team! And now the top African ref is denied entry for being Somalian... 🤬 #FIFAWorldCup #WorldCupChaos

FFVII REVELATION!!!!! OMG OMG OMG I NEEEEEEEEED IT My brain is so fried right now... 15 years of dev work on the remake comes to conclusion. 30 years of my life playing VII. I am going to spend months hitting F5 on the @square-enix-games.com store for the collectors editions. I can't wait.

I've been using the correct toilet ever since I transitioned and nobody has ever had an issue. Not once. We have jumped through every hoop we have ever been asked but this time the answer is simple. No.

After that morning my love / hate relationship with our current mixer has flat out changed to a hate hate relationship with it. It will be going into the bin.

As an organiser who drives a bunch of the kit on an 800 mile round trip for every event (I live in Reading despite being very Scottish) it means a lot to me that all the time & effort that myself and the team put in means you want to come back despite your own travel distance. Till next time!

This was my first time doing that as Org and I was terrified (and exhausted lol) Way more comfortable behind the camera and the tech desk but it was all good fun. I'm sure I'll get better at it with time. :)

They came, they saw, we made them leave. Somehow we will always find a way to keep the show on the road.

The temptation to use some of my own broadcast kit that we setup first to then stream the UKSG setup (complete with timer of course) is high right now... 😂
