Small rant … I hate all the sports betting ads which come across my feeds. I wish I could ban them 😡

How many “long” centuries are there? And if these do actually exist, can someone please tell me today’s real date? 😂

Erm? Pardon 😡

Erm? Pardon 😡

Unpopular opinion: Short sleeve shirts are rubbish. Not T shirts or polo shirts, they are fine. But actual shirts with short sleeves just look wrong. 👕👎🏻

I have been asked to speak about my history work by my HM Treasury colleagues next week. So what topic should I choose? The debates over adiaphora, the prayer book, Decalogue, vestments, royal supremacy, matriarchy … What have they done 😂😂 #Reformation #earlymodern

If Viktor Orbán supports what you have done, you are definitely on the wrong side 🤦🏼‍♂️

Really enjoying Mussolini: Son of the Century. 👍🏻

Recovering at home after yesterday’s operation. Ouchy! 😫 Gino cuddles are definitely helping. ❤️ Friends, tell me something to cheer me up 🙏🏻 #Sick #fridayfeeling #fridayvibes #Hull #NHS #KirkElla #Yorkshire #Beagle

In hospital and being very well looked after by the excellent #NHS team. All routine but hopefully now on the final stretch to better health-it has been a long 6 months. In recovery now and watching the #F1 testing on my phone 👍🏻 Take care of yourselves and make sure you see a GP! #Hull #Yorkshire

What a complete pair of Wonkas! 😂 #Hull #KirkElla #mondaymotivation #Yorkshire

Dr L is close to tears 😢 #Neighbours #AmazonPrime #Amazon www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

If I search your website for a blazer, stop showing me suit jackets. It’s not the same thing! 😡

If there is one person Putin is not scared of it is Trump. Putin is playing him like a fiddle.

Can anybody recommend any scholarship on early Christian readings of Sarah and Hagar as Church and Synagogue respectively? I’m looking at Tertullian, Origen and Augustine and am after a secondary source (or 2 or 3) that discusses this (apart from Fredrikson).

Time for lunch 😍 #Hull #Yorkshire #HalfTerm #School

Sunday afternoon at The Deep! ❤️ #Weekend #HalfTerm #SchoolHoliday #Sunday #Hull #Yorkshire #KirkElla

Popular Opinion: When opening a new packet of biscuits any broken ones found are free biscuits and do not count towards calorie counting or shared biscuit allocation. They are immediately the property of the opener. No negotiation! 🍪

More #Kiss #vinyl for my collection - just a few more to get (but no more this month!). #Hull #KirkElla #Yorkshire #rock 🤘🏻🤘🏻

A mirror image of the Humber Bridge at sunset. See #alt-text #alttext for full description. #hull #yorkshire #travel #sunset #humberbridge #photography #stunday #art

Work on rebuilding my lost #vinyl collection is going well 👍🏻🤘🏻 #Kiss #rock #Hull #KirkElla #1970s #Yorkshire

Unpopular opinion: Not everything should be described as “exciting”! The vast majority of things are not. Most are mildly interesting or even mundane.

Desperately sad to see that Cardiff University is seeking to stop teaching subjects and programmes in ancient history, modern languages and translation, music, nursing, and religion and theology. 😢 www.theguardian.com/education/20...

I just bought Isaac & Joseph their first album (aged 8 & 6). What do ya think? #Punk #PunkRock #Vinyl

As we move into the New Year please spare a thought for this guy. Only 7 days ago he noticed that his new baby looked nothing like him 😂 #HappyNewYear #NewYear

Word of the Day is one I keep posting at the end of the year, hoping its time will come. ‘Respair’, from the 16th century, is fresh hope, and a recovery from despair. Here’s to a few drops of respair in 2025.
