Record win in Twickenham, we'll take that. #6Nations #ENGvIRE

Maxïmo Park anniversary tour at Brixton 👍👍

At least somewhere the courts still do their jobs.

Samurai at the British Museum. Very busy but also very good, certainly worth a visit.

Fancy cocktails in Bar Columbus in Faro is always a highlight of these visits to Portugal.

Airport beers are the best beers. Heading to Portugal for a week 🎉

Dara Ó Briain, hugely funny (as always) and a masterful storyteller. Brought us all with him to Vancouver and then to Birmingham and finally to Kilkenny, hanging on every word and wishing for the best for him and his family(s).

@craig-mcgill.bsky.social you good dude? Worked this place out? ;)

@rightwong.bsky.social kenrextheplay.com Best show I saw last year. Saw it twice - cannot recommend highly enough.

Oh yes!

It’s been a while since the AV Clubs cover series has done something this bonkers/brilliant. www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5XR...

@taikonaut.bsky.social FYI, new phone has been ordered (a shiny new iPhone). Should be with you in a few days.

@rightwong.bsky.social thefearof13broadway.com This was superb. Big recommend tho I dread to think $$$.

I've a 90 min one on one with my CEO this afternoon. So naturally I'm on the train on the way home after just arriving in the office to find I've brought the wrong laptop. So stupid. What a start to my week 🤬😱🤯

@davefetterman.bsky.social meant to say, sorry wasn't ignoring you (well I was but you know...) got a week to Prestige in S1 of BF6. So focused on that. Fairly close. Thinking then it is perhaps time for a bit of a break again. Catch you sometime this week tho I hope.

We were lucky enough to see three episodes of this being filmed a few months ago. The series looks to be a classic. There were audible gasps in the studio as the cast were introduced.

First of 2026. A superb cast in a bit of an all over the place adaption by RSC at Barbican.

@taikonaut.bsky.social have you finished Stranger Things now? Finale and all? Verdict?

I, I will begin again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeYC...

Happy new year all.

@taikonaut.bsky.social how goes the DVD viewing?

@taikonaut.bsky.social @stuwest.com look at the complete absence of grey hair!

Good evening yesterday, catching up with @taikonaut.bsky.social and a bunch of others.

@taikonaut.bsky.social thoughts?

Fab night with Heartworms at Scala last night.

SIMPLY HAVING A

@taikonaut.bsky.social I wonder why this makes me think of you 🤔🤔🤔 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Den lille Havfrue

Got to Copenhagen, too late to get any refunds so still going to meet up with @martschian.bsky.social for beers and tourism. Tho with some time to kill before meeting up. I've gone to Sweden for lunch... as you do.

Also gutted. Fly to Copenhagen at 07:00 tomorrow :(

There are bags and bags of earplugs being given out for free at every door into My Bloody Valentine this evening 🤣

Radiohead at the Dome. Amazing gig. Somehow 21 years since I last saw them. 🤯🤯🤯

😊😊😊

En route!

The ending of this season.... 🤯

@taikonaut.bsky.social you in the pub? I assume too cold for your normal sitting outside?

Wrangled us tickets to the Gala performance and we walked the red carpet - they had no interest in us. Rude!

This IS really happening.

‪ Piastri - ARGH. #BrazilGP

@taikonaut.bsky.social Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein - which we talked about a lot with @alasdairw.bsky.social at the theatre last week is now out on Netflix. I'll be checking it out this weekend for sure, I suggest you do too.

Come friendly bombs...

Full season booked for Royal Court through end of next year. Gary Oldman! Tilda Swinton! Not even a hint of the website creaking which is a very nice change this time around.

@johnacecil.bsky.social Thought of you this evening! You might not quite make it out from the pic - front row, third from the right (bad/comedy wig) - a flamboyant, hammy ship’s captain. One of your favourite captains, as I recall?

Brilliant work from Bearman. Piastri really needs to get some momentum going again - otherwise this is just going to drift away for him. #MexicoGP

Final live show by Tennis. Good fun but disappointing setlist. For a final (ever?) live show, really needed at least something from Cape Dory and Ritual in Repeat.
