Chelsea’s record pre game at Anfield and they’re bossing the game.

Why does picking a car rental company at an Italian airport feel like Russian roulette? Horror stories on hidden pickup/drop off points, insurance upselling, fictitious damage charges. Ugh.

Chelsea. Now lost 5 games in a row, scoring zero goals in that time. Lovely to see them back around mid table where they belong.

Every day something happens that I wouldn’t have believed was real a few years ago

Big news from Guardian Towers this morning... The Guardian has announced it will no longer post content on Elon Musk’s X from official accounts. (I'm staying put - for now - as feel it's important to at least try to retain some balance there). www.theguardian.com/media/2024/n...

Decent haul from Christmas! I’ve clearly got a reputation as a reader. 📸

My favourite night photo. Not bad for iPhone and being fully drunk.

I’ve just realised my kids give me their leftovers just to avoid going to the kitchen to put the plate in the dishwasher!

Day trip to York and Whitby last weekend. 😍
