Outside painting today, met a bloke who used to do construction near Loftus Road. Went to the games. He was happily talking about Stan Bowles, David Webb, Don Givens, Phil Parkes, Dave Clement et al. His face lit up as he talked. Lovely fella. @monkeypicks.bsky.social @darrenmaggs.bsky.social

The kitchen have been in touch Micah. The chef wants his jacket back

Worst. Robot. Ever.

I'm knackered. That was brilliant.

It's probably been said already, but Uruguay are missing a bit of bite without Suarez.

Fella rolling around like he's getting electric shocks 🙄 #GetUp

BOOM #CapeVerde

Commentator has just said: "Size doesn't matter if you get quality into the box".

“Her lips touched his brain as they touched his lips, as though they were a vehicle of some vague speech and between them he felt an unknown and timid preasure, darker than the swoon of sin, softer than sound or odor.” James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

Fair play to the lads in the Tutankhamun headwear 😃 #BSkyWorldCup

Hope we're all a bit in love with this guy x

Shit me pink! That was brilliant. Boycott my arse #BSkyWorldCup

I know it's inevitable, but... Surely not? #BSkyWorldCup

Football fact: If Infantino borrowed Trump’s fake tan he’d look like a baked bean in a suit

Got my stupid little fiver bet done. I'll lose, but I care not a jot. Love the World Cup. Looking forward to the game. #BSkyWorldCup

Government agencies have a '.gov' suffix in their url. I think the police should have '.guv'.

I could be a sulky bastard over the next month and pretend the World Cup isn't happening. Alternatively I could just enjoy the football, ignore the noise, drink beer and eat tortilla chips every night for a month. If you want to join me let's #BSkyWorldCup and chat soccer shit. Who's in?

People saying "Boycott the World Cup" but you can bet some of them will be watching it, if only looking for "I told you so" moments. Gloating is unattractive. I'll be watching it. Being English living in Ireland I'll be getting grief at work, but 99.9% of it will come with a wink and a grin.....

*nodding sagely, adjusting my glasses* but is it art?

Jazz/Soul/Funk - it's all there. Love this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylxM...

This place can be just as bad as the other place. I've been called racist FFS. Of all the things to call someone, that is the one that is most disgusting to me. Fuck this.

Jude Bellingham advertising Lucozade in his England shirt. Just him. It's almost like it's all about him. It won't be his ego of course. Oh no. He probably needs the money eh?

Hey @ringo11lee.bsky.social @zydhockey.bsky.social @monkeypicks.bsky.social @drgonzo2411.bsky.social Remember those times when Fusion all met up?

I was just reading an article. A man being interviewed started by saying: "We feel super strongly....". I'm super certain that I'm super pissed-off with people just inserting the word "super" into every other bloody sentence. And "like" as well. They can all, like, super fuck off.

If I was in that there London, I would most definitely, undoubtably, certainly be heading to this.

Today is International Sherlock Holmes day. Here he is disguised as a one-legged mod.

10 Bands I've seen live and all that. Not an exhaustive list by any means, just joining in because I've got no friends 🙂 The Undertones David Bowie The Jam The Clash Nine Below Zero Elvis Costello The Style Council Stiff Little Fingers The Specials Dexys Midnight Runners

Reading about the London Necropolis Railway and Brookwood Cemetery. A line in a Wiki page absolutely creased me 😆

I think Aiden might be in for an "experience" if his missus & kids read this..

"Ayyyy"

Imagine loving your football club so much that you celebrate winning the league by throwing bottles at the police.

Portillo's been on the acid again.

"Shakira unveils official World Cup 2026 song". Plenty of others would have been more appropriate: Pet Shop Boys - Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money).

Auf Wiedersehen, Pet is on. That's me sorted. G'night.

Share??? I would cut off my nipples and use them as buttons before I'd do that.

"So I took him to one side, and I fucking left him there".

@zydhockey.bsky.social If my memory serves me right, you were a big fan?

1/2 How was your day? Today at work I witnessed a kid of about 4 punching his dad 3 times in the head, followed about 5 minutes later by a man who told me I'd killed God...

In a few months it'll be 60 years since the fantastic "Ready Steady Go" special with Otis Redding joined by starstruck Eric Burdon & Chris Farlowe. I especially love the excitement of "Shake" at the end. You can see Eric & Chris are loving it. Imagine being there! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifHP...

You know what you're getting with Monk - quality tunes from a quality fella. Get it on

Garage forecourts out of diesel. Crowds protesting. People getting angry. It's the 70's again. I'm gonna start wearing high waisted Oxford bags & a tank top. And a shirt with outrageous collars. And platform shoes with blakeys

Walking home from work last night I passed a young fella & we did the "alright" thing as we crossed. He was a wee bit unsteady on his feet with, as they say, drink taken. He stopped & said to me "you're English". I said I was. He asked where the accent was from and I told him "Woking".....

Happy Easter everyone 🐣🐰🍫🥚

IT’S THE P.I.T.S MAN VOL.20 OUT NOW ! For a 60s vibe ….. there’s 3 seconds away from an hour of 60’s - ish tunes ….. youtu.be/ysY9NoYviDE?...

Someone's gonna make a T Shirt in the style of X-Ray Spex - "Oh Bondi Up Yours!"
