Delivery day today. This week I took advantage of a Spurs shop sale to pick up this season's away shirt for less than half-price. The shirt is really comfy but I'm still not sure about the actual design. And these Nike collars are a 'no' from me.

I love Studio Ghibli so tonight's movie of choice is Princess Mononoke. boxd.it/2b4w

I am so ready for tonight's Manchester WhiskyClub tasting. Tonight it's all about Annandale whisky.

Ive been a bit slack with Nicolas Cage movies lately, so tonight I'm going with Mandy. boxd.it/gtti

Just enough time for a little movie before bed. Tonight's choice is Wendell & Wild. boxd.it/iwtu

Bruno Lage is so so bad. Tactically inept but is a Benfica fan and beats his chest with passion. Roll on October.

Tonight's film was About Time and what an absolute joy it was. boxd.it/43bI

Love a bit of Germany in green (I know there are a couple missing so hopefully I'll be able to add them at some point).

Great way to start the weekend as another Germany shirt is added to the collection This is the 96/98 away shirt and it's the first in my collection of this adidas template. I know it was reissued recently but the waiting game paid off as I found an original cheaper on Vinted.

Going for a bit of 70s horror tonight with Suspiria. boxd.it/1SNW

Father and son trip to the cinema for some Dog Man. Dog Man on Letterboxd boxd.it/t6Iq

So I took advantage of the recent CFS 20% discount to add this 24/25 LA Galaxy 3rd Shirt to my collection. It's a nice shirt, but it's the badge that I really love.

I know I'm late to this and it's probably already been said but The Bear is a phenomenal TV series.

I don't watch as much WWE as I used to do so I don't know many of women in the Royal Rumble but from what I've just seen, Charlotte Flair is a terrible wrestler.

This year I'm doing a movie challenge on Letterboxd and this week the prompt was 'Pam Grier week'. Soni watched The Package not knowing she was only in it for about 5 minutes. boxd.it/1iIQ

On a more personal note... For all my life, I have always weighed more than 100kgs. During COVID, I set myself a target of hitting 99kgs so I could see two digits rather than three on the scales. I got very close and then lost my way again. Last year, I started again...

And another MLS All-Star shirt comes through the door. This is the 2016 shirt. It's nice enough but the star and maple leaf should be more prominent as in other shirts. This was another Vinted buy and it needed a lot of TLC. The sponsor has peeled away a bit but it's still ok.

Tonight's movie of choice is Dog Soldiers. It's been on my watchlist for ages for some reason I'd just not got round to it. boxd.it/1SRE

And so my first footy shirt of 2025 has arrived and it's this MLS 20/21 All-Star authentic shirt. I really like how the stars and maple leafs are used on All-Star shirts and this is no different. I may have the MLS all-star bug now. Gotta love a Vinted bargain.

This guy... what a player!

Let's just say... I'm far from happy with the way the Benfica match ended.

Tonight I'm watching Whip It to complete my Kristen Wiig week on my Letterboxd movie challenge. boxd.it/1A3m

I really enjoyed the Super Mario movie back in 2023 so I thought it was about time I got round to watching the Sonic movie. boxd.it/gdK8

Movie question: Does anyone have any movie trilogy recommendations that aren't the usual, i.e. Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The Godfather, etc?

Tonight's movie of choice is Love Lies Bleeding. I've been looking forward to seeing this and it is not disappointing at the moment. boxd.it/zN4q

So here is the first of birthday footy shirt treats from the other day. This is the 2024/25 Portland Timbers archive third shirt. Love the colour of this one and the baseball-type font on the front.

Happy New Year everyone! Hope 2025 is ace!

Inspired by @footieshirtz.bsky.social, I've put together my footy shirt purchases of 2024. Some very good ones in there and some that were simply needed to fill a part of my collection. I wonder what 2025 will bring in.

Happy Birthday to me! Celebrating my 46th year on this earth with a couple of American beauties.

Holy crap, my stress levels are on edge. boxd.it/gXGc

Spurs being (continually) awful and Benfica losing the Lisbon derby... what a shite day of football.

I'm just so tired of Spurs. Ange in? Ange out? I just don't care anymore.

Tonight I'm in need of switching my brain off with an action movie and The Commuter is the movie of choice. boxd.it/dZ36

Finally got round to doing my Lego Indiana Jones set... I've had less productive afternoons.

So today's delivery is this 2024-25 Sporting Kansas City Third Shirt. I absolutely love this shirt and it's definitely in my top 5 shirts of the year. I just had to take advantage of the Classic Football Shirts advent deals.

Tired of all the Hallmark Christmas movies, so tonight I went with Violent Night... absolutely loving it so far. boxd.it/xXBA

It's taken me ages to get round to it but I'm finally going to start Red Dead Redemption 2 for the first time.

Archie Gray is simply superb and I won't be surprised if he gets an England call-up by the end of the season.

Get the fuck in, Spurs!!!

What is that United keeper complaining about?

I think with the way Bissouma has been playing recently, he can count himself lucky to go straight back into the starting XI.

Trying to watch as many Nicholas Cage movies as I can. Why? Because I bloody love him! Tonight's movie of choice is Knowing. boxd.it/1Pmy

Please Spurs... Don't screw this up.

Get in Deki!!

I think it may be time for Porro to spend some time on the sidelines.

Predictions for tonight's Spurs match? I don't whether to give a score or guess how many injuries we'll get.

So here's my Playstation Wrap-Up for the year. I bloody loved Lost Judgement.

A Man on the Inside is just such a joy to watch. Love Ted Danson.

The ref has been an absolute joke
