The majority of online ticket sales I fancy start at 10am v The majority of (work) teams I’ve been in had/have stand ups that starts at 10am This is not _synergy_.

Reform wanting, demanding children sing hymns — to honour what scared deity exactly? This yet more of their performative Christian values?

My last day at NHS England today. Trying to work out when leaving a role/place went from feeling like a big deal to a shrug of the shoulders. 😆

Loving the contrast between Trump’s “oh we’ve had these five guys on our radar for a while, we’ve worked together with the Brits to get them, and now we’ve got them” versus the farmer’s “I was driving past and saw these three vans and thought that was suspicious and rang 999”

After the Grimsby game at Newport on Saturday I had an hour before my train. “Join us for a pint,” said @ianstreet.bsky.social. Which is how I ended up on the latest episode of the 1912 Ediles podcast. ✅ Mentioning @codalmighty.bsky.social ✅ “acceptance of terribleness” youtu.be/ImD1S-C6a-A?...

Once Upon a Time in the West has one of the finest climaxes in movie history. “So you found out you’re not a business man after all.” “Just a man.” All the lead up to “only at the point of dying.” And then… youtu.be/qwb3P0fuM1c?...

Going through any airport always reminds me Leeds Bradford Airport is my favourite example of lipstick on a pig/can only polish a turd so far/etc etc. (Yes yes the Hale and Pace sketch I know I know.)

A quick week note for last week: Three slow 5ks, Freo into a grand final from 28 down, Lloyd Griffith in Knaresborough, Town 2-0 Crawley, a tomato harvest, Ghosts. And the usual sneaky bit of work: community nursing lives in visits, not appointments. www.officeofwilson.com/week-note-we...

Fun night, popping over to Knaresborough to see a WIP for buggerlugs’ new show. The Frazer Theatre is a neat little venue too. The number of people that called him Lloyd Griffiths lol
Lloyd Griffith looking confused. Standard.

My favourite thing about blokey fash is when they start getting all clever* about religion saying stuff like this should be a Christian country (that’s not the clever* bit), and then really rise their brainpower* talking about Islam doesn’t believe in Jesus ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

A kilo of freshly ground coffee from the Village General Store in Saltaire, for my office at Assembly in Bradford. Good stuff this. Might stretch to lasting a month.

Walking round Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery wondering, lots of Benjamin Zephaniah, good for the soul. Zephaniah was more anti-establishment that a certain company posing as a political party.

Glad I’m back running*. A chance to add Worcester & Birmingham Canal in Birmingham to my treks while I’m here, and visit the Gas Street Basin. #infrastructure etc etc (Also reminded running on travels means more kit to lug about.)

Birmingham. Smashing! Not been here for a proper walk around for *years*. A city of proper reform over time (love the Attwood and Watt statues), none of that gammon/blokey use of Reform bullshit. (Plus some proper good pubs.)

Did a massive walk up Shipley glen to see/ hear Harmonic Fields, a site specific audio installation up on top of a massive hill, which is fucking brilliant. If you're in Yorkshire, go pay it a visit, it comes down on Sunday I believe.
