This morning's run - smashed 3mins 42secs off my PB, and managed to do negative splits on every km. Had planned to get under 35mins, eventually did 33:03 and was gutted about those extra 3 seconds!

Flights to Larnaca booked. Used Avios so all refundable, but £90 for 3x of us in business class. We might go even if Palace don't.

Bought my sunglasses in with me today. Have barely looked out a window for 10hrs, let alone gone outside. Waste of fucking time that was.

Had a good day yesterday but: Coffee £5.05 Train £7.40 (no tube, I walked everywhere) Exhibit one £20 Lunch £19.97 Exhibit two £26.64 Beer £8.75 £87.81, and I didn’t even leave London or do anything extravagant. And it was just me. Going to do a day trip to Tirana next month and compare!

Train in 23mins. Should probably get ready... #cpfc

People forgot this - it's hard for ANY player to shine in a team that are playing utter dogshit, let alone one who is trying to learn the system and get to know his teammates.

Remember, healing is not linear 🩵 What’s one small win you’ve had recently, despite the ups and downs?

Check on your people. And this is why I’m raising money for Mind in March. As a society, we need to do better. 😔

What’s that coming over the hill to ruin my weekend?

Tinder: Thanks for your money for 6 months. We’ve not matched you with anyone. Also Tinder: hey, you’ve stopped paying us so here’s 5 matches just from today, you’re so popular… but you can’t see until you pay up again. Soz.

Andrew getting sent down for "sharing secrets" is on a par with Al Capone doing time for tax fraud.

Just got a “like” on a dating app. Right age, location, attractive… First line of profile: “Scared of flying so only holiday in the UK”. Nope.

I'd prefer if we just rounded all the riders up and shot them. Annoying fuckers!

I see the racist shit last night at Benfica has turned into a farce. Madrid players say the player called Vini a "monkey". The Benfica players defending him are saying "no, he didn't say monkey, he called him a faggot". BECAUSE THAT'S SO MUCH BETTER! Fuck sake, people. Do better.

Lowest crime stats in years but Andy from Birmingham knows best. Stay in your home, Londoners.

Bit of a crappy mood last couple of days. Dropped Abi back with her mum & decided to go for a run as it was nice weather. Aim was 3.2km, to top of Greenwich hill. I stopped to pee & for pics, but I just kept going. Picking landmarks, roads, milestones. 5km. Non-stop. Done. @exhile.bsky.social

Quick check… everyone here knows there’s a correct way and a wrong way to put a battery in, right?

@smoz.bsky.social is this the same brewery as the one we went to near you?

5. Bought baked beans at the store. Picked up the sugar-free version, which taste shit. A fucking 4-pack of them. Definitely the low of my weekend, knowing my dinner tonight is going to be shit.

Things that have happened today: 1. Terrible workout, but at least I showed up. 2. Spa at the gym was nice and relaxing in the sun. 3. Someone confused my locker at the gym with theirs, so had my padlock cut. 4. The large, middle-aged bloke at Starbucks looked embarrassed handing me this cup...

Longest run on the treadmill so far - 3km in 22mins, then walked 1km, ran last km in 7:29mins. Reckon I'm not far off being able to run 30mins, which would get me 4km! Might help if I ran more than once a week! Two weeks to go! @exhile.bsky.social

Not saying I blame @pnm1979.bsky.social but his calendar had Guehi in Jan (left) and now has Glasner/Kamada in Feb (leaving). I daren't look at March. #cpfc

My ex has booked another event/trip for my daughter over a Palace match. I let the first couple slide as maybe she hadn't noticed/fixture changes, etc. but I've called her out on it now. It feels like a deliberate attempt to take something away from me that I love doing with my daughter.

I'm going to have nightmares.

19 match unbeaten run ended in October. We've been shit since then. When did OG decide he wasn't renewing? October you say... Shocked, I tell you. #cpfc

Left 9 minutes early. Straight onto a train at NJ. Change platforms and straight onto a train at LB. I’ll be home by 10:10. At least I’m winning, even if Palace aren’t. #cpfc

Oh no. What a shame. Maybe you shouldn’t have wasted £27bn last summer buying dross.

Ran across the Golden Gate Bridge yesterday. I might never beat that for scenic runs. Also did a lot of steps. It’s hilly here.

Isn’t she allowed pets? 🤣

En route to LHR for San Fran!

12min run (1.5km) 6 min walk 12min run (1.5km) 6 min walk 12min run (1.5km) Total distance 5.83km in 48:01. Next run: Friday, across the Golden Gate Bridge (5.4km round trip apparently) @exhile.bsky.social

San Francisco! Peter, our fellow Palace supporter and mental health advocate, is organizing a meet-up next week for anyone who is feeling lonely and/or seeking community with others. Please see the infographic below and contact @petercpfc.bsky.social if you have any questions! #cpfc

Orange isn’t my colour. #emptychairs

Was going to see Milan Feb HT week. Not now. Might go for the derby the w/e of the 7th though. Hopefully he'll have injured himself by then.

This is interesting... and mostly accurate. But everyone at our place has a 3 monitor setup, with a laptop they can take anywhere, for what they do. Except our MD who has a single-screen Desktop Mac. 🙄

Just did 8km, intermittent walk/run. Walk 1km (approx 9mins), run 1km (approx 8mins) and repeat. I need a goal for February. Reckon I can run 5km without stopping by the 28th? 😑

How much money would the saving have to be for you to consider flying with Ryanair over a proper airline?

Also... I really don't want Mateta at Milan. Genuinely delaying booking my flights to go see them because I can't watch him stinking up both my teams this season*. *No doubt he'll score a 1 on 1 on his debut...

Mateta not wanting to play is the reason why: 1) the summer transfer window should close before the season starts. 2) the winter window should close on a Friday, with no matches scheduled, when the "deadline day" falls over a weekend. The deadline should not be pushed to the Monday.

It might be my main hobby, but I'm also not an idiot. I'm not paying £35 to watch us play Mostar when I can watch at home for free. Sorry, Palace. #cpfc

@bryanuf.bsky.social @holmesdaleusa.bsky.social @zg3ii.bsky.social @jlm7.bsky.social Could my stateside friends please share this!

Please share this invitation! Next week, I’ll be hosting an Empty Chairs in San Fran. It’s been great to be part of this growing community and I’ve plucked up the courage to host an event. Hopefully this invitation will be shared and people from the Bay Area will see it and come join me.

At least JSL will be used to playing in a nasty gold kit.

FFS.

Get in USG!

Trust me to pick the Champions League game with the English ref…

Three days and barely eaten. Feel like I should eat dinner, if only to try and get some energy, but fear it's just going to come straight back out... 🤢

Neil just perfectly summed up my marriage. Even got the timing right on replacements. Stalker.

Heartbreaking.
