I saw it today in a small cinema in Worthing. I should have waited until Saturday to see (hear) it in a London IMAX. I could always go again...

I sat in the queue thinking: Don't care what it costs or what day it is (except a Biscuit Friday). If I get to the head of the queue, I'm in. Didn't really expect to get there, but I did.

That was a long and nervous wait. Quite expensive too, but I'm worth it.

An "Archer" is still the slang term for £2000, right?

Self in 1996. Five years before it happened.

Sealed or empty were the options at one gig this year. And loads of places to fill for free once inside.

I'd forgotten just how much I was enjoying this gem from @robinince.bsky.social when some other book caught my eye and took over. Great to be back into it...

It's like a big book of nostalgia. I was at all the gigs in it and am remembering them fondly as I read. Going to restrict myself to a couple a day maximum.😁

Goodbye little #Honda, you've done me well these past 9 years. If only you still made them like that. Hello little #Mazda, like a new and improved version of my old Honda. Behave yourself and we will become good friends. 🚗🚗

Today's thought: Will Andy Burnham's by election gamble be as successful as David Cameron's referendum gamble.

Council election results for my area are in and... My 100% voting record is still intact. I have NEVER backed a winner in any public election or referendum.

"Most decorated" athlete... If we're going to adopt one grotesque American word, it really should be #winningest. We have nothing like it in English.

@profaliceroberts.bsky.social Really enjoyed your Worthing lecture yesterday. It really brought that part of the book to life. I've often wondered how Richard Dawkins feels about the hijack of his brilliant description of "memes" - not many know that it was his invented term.

Hmmm... Employer enrols me in yet another online anti-phishing training course. Then sends me an unexpected Amazon gift card a few days later. Is it a test?

Found out yesterday that the Scottish seaside village scenes in #DownCemeteryRoad were filmed here. I thought I recognised it from the first shot of the river flowing next to the main road.

Firmly in my calendar. #GoodwoodRevival A full day of the sounds and smells of engines of yesteryear. And a load of period style, clothing, music.
