Strange day. I’ve had a fryup for breakfast, a curry for dinner, caught a flight, listened to the entire Revolver album plus some Roxy Music and Erasure, watched The Mighty Boosh (Old Greg), Die Hard 2 and Lost Boys, had a long call with my sister and tidied the house. Brilliant day.

Sometimes the redeye is worth getting. From Tuesday but look at that sunrise. #jerseyci #channelislands

My 2021 car connects to my wifi but firmware updates are via USB. 25gb of updates, downloaded onto my Mac, then exported by the app onto a FAT32 USB drive and then manually installed. It crashed 4 times and wouldn’t accept 3 USB drives. Excruciatingly painful.

Tonight’s conversation over dinner. If you could go back in time and observe anything what would it be? Me: end of the ice age, to see what society was like and understand Göbekli Tepe Friend 1: similar but Egypt and the pyramids Friend 2: I’d watch Jack The Ripper Everyone: 😬

@thesquareball.net asking for a friend, do Levi Solicitors offer advice on constructive dismissal cases? If they can translate into German that would also be helpful.

#F1 bobbleheads in Spain, #Hamilton, #Senna (in Ferrari overalls 🤷🏻‍♂️) and who? Jaime Alguersuari feels a stretch given his limited time in the sport but I guess he is #Spanish

I’ve never heard of Lynk & Co but as a car it’s rather well built and good specs. As a hire car it’s one of the most battered I’ve ever rented.

Beauport #jersey

New setup for the #F1. Superb.

Based on political activity, not enough skateparks is what I’m hearing #Jersey

I woke up this morning wondering if Robert Smith has ever been on a cruise. So I used AI to see what it would look like …

If you see this and don’t daydream about it being a brilliant project car I don’t think we can be friends.

On holiday. The bar have just put on Living On A Prayer. Collectively in multiple languages he entire bar have just murmured ’what a song’

In the 90’s, when I discovered Dookie, maybe but I’m a 44 year old man. Not today Amazon, go back to offering me an Audible subscription every three days.

In France where you can buy bread without crusts, the kids still won’t eat the edges 🤦🏻‍♂️

For the first time in 35 years today I saw a pied wagtail, instantly recognised it. Here's to you Mr Cawthorne who taught me birdwatching in the 80's

@mrpaulrobinson.bsky.social he’s on, your post not mine my friend #heathrow

Most unexpected thing to come out of #Newcastle since Jimmy Nail’s singing career, genuinely didn’t see that result coming

4,250 and 4,850 years old, just let that sink in #jersey @megalithic.bsky.social indeed

Life is too short for bad #coffee, enjoy the good stuff while you can ☕️

Per capita, Americans claim a lot of things but the amount of them that wear hats in restaurants is spectacularly high

Today is a mighty fine day

In the US. ESPN REALY plugging the #eflchampionship. Loving the #lufc based ad but Christ, with NFL, MLB,NBA, NHL, MLS I think they’ve enough choice, the champo ain’t going to convert them to ‘soccer’

Today is a hot one 🥵

There are worse places to be spending the next week

8am, Sitting in the sun with a coffee as a gentle breeze wafts past, Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffett on in the background. I think I’ve hit peak relaxation.

Third flight in 24 hours and my main observation is that Americans REALLY like paper boarding passes

I’m not really a rugby guy but any stadium seen from the air is always exciting

A picnic in the car and a bit of New Jersey meets old Jersey. Brilliant.

There are teenage kids in this McDonalds drinking out of babies bottles, is that a thing now?

Something might be going on today but with my muted words I can live in relative peace

Taken over the past few nights, no filter, nothing fancy just an iPhone camera. #jersey

Lost to my seven year old at I Spy, she had untransparent windows

Kids back at school today, three emails of school related admin received before midday 😫

So I know I’m supposed to be #Jersey biased and that Guernseys are a better product but this Alderney sweater knocks it out of the park, great presentation too #channelislands #knitwear

Post Christmas bin day, one of middle aged dad life’s greatest days

Remembering the time my sister’s mate had a one night stand on Christmas Eve. She woke up at 10am on Christmas Day three towns over with no phone

Remembering the time I nearly got Chris Rea’s phone number #flashback

I like a challenge but this was tough #scrabble

Sat on a bus, three others all equally socially distanced with the windows open despite the cold outside. Feels very 2020 🥶

Taking a break from Christmas music, the perfect palate cleanser

I’m just saying, I think Guernsey has done it better #channelislands

Who’s Danny?

Can confirm, daughter is one of those unfortunate souls who has opened the doors only to get three Bounty’s in a row. She’s furious.

Of course it’s recommended by proximity and ratings but I can’t help but chuckle that the best thing to do in Guernsey is leave and go to #JerseyCI 😂

Fell asleep early, woke up in a panic that we’d not done #elfontheshelf thankfully, Lesley had it covered, phew

I aspire to one day have enough time in my hands to respond to Amazon Answers with “don’t know”

I’d like a Coloursoft, it’s not the glitches or mediocre reviews that’s put me off, it’s that I travel a lot and I don’t have the energy to argue with security staff and airlines that it’s not an iPad it’s a Kindle

Clearly Gordon is delivering some PR/corporate gig but I like to think he’s pottering about all day every day in his chef’s whites. #F1

I know I’m supposed to be #Jersey biased but I’m putting it out there that Otto in #Guernsey is the best Italian restaurant in the #channelislands and it’s sister restaurant China Red the best CI Chinese restaurant. And yeah, I like anchovies, deal with it 😋
