Lovely to head out and enjoy some autumnal sunshine this morning.

Had my first ever visit to the Emirates to watch Arsenal Women at the weekend. The 1-1 draw was disappointing, but it was a great day out!

There’s a reason the saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” has stood the test of time.

I always sensed Dan Cole always saw himself as a fly half… 😉

It has taken a little longer than we anticipated, but we are there with our new bathroom! Really happy with how it’s all turned out!

A bathroom features a sink with a mirrored cabinet, a window with frosted glass, and a plant on the windowsill.

A small bathroom features a white tiled wall, a toilet, a white cabinet with greenery on top, and a dark blue upper wall with a white clock.

A modern bathroom features a white tiled corner with a bathtub, an overhead shower, and a glass partition.

A bathroom features a blue and white tiled wall with a chrome towel rack, hooks, and a shelf, alongside a white door and patterned floor tiles.

Good progress from the builders today on the bathroom wall tiling. They’re aiming to finish the tiling tomorrow. I’d hoped everything would be wrapped up by then, but it’s looking more like early next week now.

The bathroom floor is down. You never quite know how something is going to look when picking tiles, but I love how this has turned out.

🏉 Adam Radwan joining Leicester Tigers with immediate effect is fantastic news! He’ll definitely help us rack up more points, but I’m not sure he’s the answer to our recent defensive woes…

Underfloor heating is going in today.

Most of the ground work and preparation for reconfiguring the new bathroom is done. And the new bath is now in! Should all start coming together next week with tiling and remaining fixtures and fittings. We’re getting there!

Needed to walk to Lidl to get a few items at lunchtime. I’m glad I popped out as it was stunning!

We have a new bathroom! It’s just currently all stacked up in a family room. Excited to see it start to come together more in the coming days though.

Day one of our bathroom do-over. It’s going to be a challenging few weeks while the work is done, but I’m excited by the prospect of a new bathroom when it’s complete.

A bathroom under renovation features exposed brick walls, a bathtub, a toilet, and a frosted window.

Finished listening to ‘The Life Impossible’ by Matt Haig driving back from London. This was an interesting book, but it never truly grabbed me. I did finish it, but if I’d given up on it—which I did consider—I don’t think I’d have been that bothered. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fun day out in London yesterday seeing Oliver the Musical and then ice skating at Somerset House.

Started reading Sally Rooney’s new novel ‘Intermezzo’ a couple of nights ago. She writes in such an interesting way and explores relationships from such a distinct perspective. Barely 50 pages in, but I’m engrossed.

“Don’t you just love curling up with a good phone?” This cartoon by Max Wittert in the New Yorker (17 November 2024) certainly feels apt!

Meta are properly worried about #Bluesky stealing their thunder.

It’s a #Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch #Whisky tonight 🥃 I’ll be honest: Not been enjoying this as much as others, but giving it another go.

Good article from @twoht.bsky.social: What will Football Bluesky look like after the Great Xodus? unexpecteddelirium.substack.com/p/what-will-...

Screenshot of segment from article saying: “The last couple of weeks or so have felt like watching a social media app come of age again, as familiar names have gravitated from A to B. But what will Football Bluesky look like, and can it retain the enjoyable madness of Football Twitter without the increasing amount of bullshit that has started to come with it in recent years?”

Wasn’t anticipating having to abandon the car coming home after seeing Gladiator II! (Which is great by the way—and definitely one to watch at the cinema.)

Well, it started out like that today. Sadly it’s turned to this…

Continue to enjoy this series of @michaelconnelly.bsky.social books. Just started this one. Always hooks me in so quickly every time I pick one up. 💙📚 #books #ResurrectionWalk

Back tonight to the one that started my #whisky journey at the start of the year. I’ve tasted better ones since, but still enjoy this. #Cardhu

I love that anyone with half a brain could have told them this upfront. The lack of innate attunement to the obvious is so baffling. Feels like a get your head out your own arses moment! www.threads.net/@mosseri/pos...

Photo of a post on Threads by Adam Mosseri that says: "Interesting Threads fact: we’re removing the Instagram graph import from the onboarding flow. We’ve been running a test for a while now and it looks like people actually prefer their experience if they build a different graph on Thread than the graph that they had on Instagram. Feels a bit like a growing up moment."
