Evening. A 2-0 win against Sporting Khalsa this afternoon gave Albion the points and first place in Group N of the #FAWNL Cup. Should have been a bigger score but Khalsa made it difficult to break them down and their keeper played a blinder, including a penalty save. #WBA

Had been looking at Quest Fest in dinglehampton in a fortnight and thinking £60 is a bit much when I only want to see Fortune Teller and Masterplan. Would have gone if they'd added Roses Of Thieves, who are supporting Myrath's tour. But they haven't so I'm not going.

Four. I've seen four of these. I'm not really a telly person. Not in the list, I liked The Dead Zone but I don't think Sky bothered to show the later series.

Back when I wrote Lost Lanes North, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park was free to enter if you arrived by bike (or on foot or public transport). If you arrived by car, you had to pay a parking fee. Today, car parking is free, and all visitors pay the same entry fee.

Cycling back from Heartlands earlier I had a very impatient driver behind me with enough grasp of physics not to be dangerous but entitled enough to lean on his horn because Must Get In Front. Dear reader, I turned around and I shushed him like a parent scolding a naughty child.

Benign, not cancerous but abnormal and the doctor's requested a CT scan to find out more. I wheeze on. He stuck another bloody camera up my nose so my throat is funny from huffing numbing gel.

Nearly missed my appointment because my time management is appalling and turned up wheezing from trying to push hard on a Limebike, but it's ok because the doctor isn't even here.

Passed this on the way in while the area was teeming with police and firefighters. Road's still closed. Roof's obviously completely gone and the building's awaiting demolition now. Awful.

Afternoon. Albion Women again take the points with a late winner, Naomi Smart beating the keeper from 25 yards to score the only goal of the game deep in stoppage time. A tightly contested match that Rugby Borough might feel aggrieved not to have won but for poor finishing. #WBA #FAWNL

Properly annoyed. Clashes with the men v Dingles. Albion like everyone else would have known when the fixtures were published. If they tried to delay KO and been knocked back then fair enough. But the heads-down, pretend it isn't happening approach suggests they haven't thought or bothered at all.

Kai Hansen's a brilliant musician and I grew up on his music (as much as you can grow up on music you found in your 20s). I still enjoy his past work but I've just got no enthusiasm for that new solo album. He hides it but has let slip some AfD adjacent opinions and he seems a bit of a dickhead now.

Some normally very sensible and intelligent people on here are chatting some proper unhinged bollocks about cycling, particularly e-bikes, the last couple of days. All road users offend but I walk to work most days and it ain't the fucking bikes endangering me.

Threshold are playing one of their vanishingly rare UK gigs in Chepstow on the same day I'm in Norwich. I looked at Google Maps. It's a 250-mile sprint, I'd have to pass within 20 minutes of home to get there and would still miss it. Hasn't anyone invented astral projection yet?

Overheard in the doctor's waiting room earlier: Him: Doctor says my diastolic is 210. Her: No he didn't. Him: Yes he did. Her: If your diastolic was 210 your head would have exploded like in a horror movie. Him: That's not a nice thing to say. Her: This coat is new and I don't want brains on it.

This is Labour's approach to solving the shortage occupancy list. Remember when Bantz wanted to force people to train as welders because "importing foreigners"? Instead they'll just tell kids to know your place, don't complain and get on the fucking shop floor like a good little working class lad.

#KidicalMassHfx And to the twit who got mad that we were “bringing the kids into [our] agenda,” behold, the kids’ agenda:

An elementary-age girl is riding her bike in the centre of the lane, with her left fist proudly and powerfully raised over her head. She is wearing a black tutu, teal helmet, and probably high heels. A stuffed penguin is in a doll seat on the back of her bike. She is plainly thrilled.

OK, so maybe now the government will come back with a superduper palliative and social care bill that takes all suffering and pain away from the dying forever and is so good that people will wonder why anyone could ever want assistance to free themselves in dignity.
