London bound, on a beautiful sunny autumn morning in the Toon. What's it like down there?

Quick and dirty mapo tofu, using the mince left over from yesterday's chilli con carne. Such a flavour bomb for something that takes about 15 minutes! Just needs an ice cold lager and I'm in heaven.

I wrote about Jim Bakker, whose parasocial style of grifter evangelism seemed freakish to mainstream society in the 80s and is now the machinery by which mainstream society operates

The Death and Afterlife of an American Con Man

Jim Bakker’s vision of the future came to pass. Just not in the way the disgraced televangelist imagined.

Crumlin Road Gaol. Well worth the visit if you're in Belfast.

I rather like my Belfast fridge magnet 😀 #Harland&Wolff

Fridge magnet depicting the iconic twin yellow gantry cranes, Samson and Goliath, which dominate the Belfast skyline. And the top of a Lisbon tram magnet too.

36 hours after leaving the house I'm back home. And yet we've had a day and a half in Belfast! Packed in the sights, and the pubs, walked for miles - but with a 34 minute flight from NCL, it's not felt like a mad rush. Would definitely do it again! But fucking knackered now 🥱

The Sunflower is a lovely friendly pub, but the security cage outside is a reminder that violent times were not that long ago. #belfast

A little reminder from the streets of Belfast. #respect

@southlondongirl.bsky.social @tania-nexust.bsky.social @hassinator.bsky.social I'm going to be in London 2 weeks today (Fri 16) and wondered if any London peeps I know here but have never met IRL, might fancy a drink, supper or something to put faces to names? Anyone else in London, I don't remember

Paul J White @pauljwhite.eurosky.social · 02/10/2026

Had my flu and covid boosters yesterday, for which I'm grateful. But unlike the last 3 or 4 years, when I've had one in each arm and no pain, the bossy nurse insisted both go in the right arm. And it is fucking killing me today!

Lunch in the garden in October isn't bad. A Spanish vibe, coley in salsa Bilbaína 😋

What a gorgeous morning! Nice enough for lunch in the garden I reckon 😋🌞

We turn the page on another month on the @alfredorfz Sevilla tapas calendar, and Octubre brings us properly into autumn. I've walked past Bar El Uno de San Roman many times, but never seen it open, so I can't comment. Maybe one day... #sevilla 🇪🇸

Small tapas bar on a typical Sevilla street, white walls with ochre detailing and a red sign above the door. Have written annotations, and a sketch of a red plastic chair.

I made extra mash last night so I could have cheesy potato cakes for lunch. Crisp exterior, melty interior, so comforting, and with a generous serving of sauerkraut on the side - a sharp counterpoint to the cheese, and good for the gut biome too. 😋

Paul J White @pauljwhite.eurosky.social · 28/09/2026

I can't remember who posted this a couple of weeks ago, but I just made it, and it's really good. As things have turned decidedly autumnal tonight, I made herby mash for the first time since last winter, to soak up all that tasty sauce 😋 thehappyfoodie.co.uk/recipes/ixta...

My god, it's so bloody dark! This is a shock, when it was still twilight at 8.30 in Sevilla, and I've got all the bloody lights on at home now.

Safely back in the UK. Can't say I'm delighted...

Dragged myself out to the recycling bins, and I'm glad I did. Glorious sky across the plaza! And I might as well have a beer now I'm out...

Went Peruvian for lunch, just to change things up after a week in Spain. Bloody lovely, and very glad I did. Recommendation from @sevillatapas.bsky.social the expert on all things food in this fine city. #Raices #sevilla Causa limeña, Pisco sour, ceviche mixto 😋

Got a bit sick of macro lager, so found a lovely local 6% IPA in Feria market. A delicious tapa of Mojama de Barbate (the best dried tuna) alongside. #foodsky #sevilla 🇪🇸

50 cl of IPA in a decorated glass alongside a plate of dried tuna with fried almonds, on top of a glass case full of oyster shells.

Even in mid September, getting off an air conditioned bus in Sevilla is like stepping into an oven. 37 degrees, not a cloud in the sky, so within 10 minutes I'm looking for a cold beer and a snack. It's great to be back! @grancafeespanarestaurante #sevilla 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸

Spurs have played over 6 hours of football this season without troubling the scorers. Pathetic. I hope Tonali is enjoying life at "a big club". #thefootball
