Kraftwerk were pretty cool but it’s been a while since I last saw them. Was the flautist off sick tonight?

Celtic hit the bar twice and Inter’s keeper played a blinder. What a team.

Defence budget needs a boost

I get it. And I have just delivered change.

Vote him, get them.

Not that I’m picky about @nytimes.com Connections but that musical doesn’t end in an -r, it ends with a -!

Bet that Herb Alpert video hadn’t been on TV this century #TOTP

She usually lets me sleep until 6am. Today she was indignantly meowing in my ear when the clock read 6:29. But we all know that felt like 5:29. So how did Dorothy learn to tell the time?

This NYT intro is just awful: it is not neutral, it is an acceptance of the extremist health agenda.

Blooming street. #Bristol

Why am I sneezing? It can’t be … it is. (Hunts through drawers for end of last year’s antihistamines)

What was the spread and how much did he have on himself to finish before 11pm?

Lord knows we all get frustrated with our local papers but this by @tristancorkpost.bsky.social on why developers aren’t building enough homes in Bristol is exemplary. www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol...

This, on the rugby in the Graun, is a silly stat as it is depends on the fixture list. ‘Scotland have only won the match directly after beating England twice before in this competition’.

Wow.

Been watching the acrobatic skiing. Didn’t anyone at the branding meeting say: ‘Let’s NOT call that move the Iron Cross.’ ? #WinterOlympics

‘Let Starmer be Starmer’. OK, maybe not …

Last time I looked, I had a plate of sweet potato fries

Peeling veg to CMAT. Works for me.

5 Live presenter just now: ‘So you think that’s a deliberate circumnavigation of the rules?’ Well, I guess if you want to go the long way round..

The only thing millions of people around the world want to see is old ex-pros rummaging around for balls. Will it ever happen? #WorldCupDraw

Really, how can you write this (it’s the NYT) and not then delete the first four words. ‘Like other recent presidents, Mr. Trump has pushed too far in pursuit of an ideological agenda.’

Why AI is really useful, again.

And it's a tie at the World Narcissism Grand Final.

As an emotional wringer, that was up there with the Wales game when Jock Stein died

So sad to hear Rachel Cooke has died. A writer of depth and range who, like all the best, appreciated editors and subs. Excellent tribute here from @timadamswrites.bsky.social observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

‘In 204 years, the Grauniad has published only 15 zero-star reviews…’ That’s Sky Sports Prem league rewriting of history there. Maybe 22 years didn’t sound as good. Obs critcs were very against star ratings, and I think Philip French resisted them till he retired. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Seems to be a lot of buzz today about the 50th anniversary of the recording of one of the great 70s songs at Rockfield Studios. Odd because they’re a couple of years late to the party. youtu.be/TkoTNF73EPY?...

Enjoying Down Cemetery Rd but wondering why so much of a show set in Oxford has been filmed in Bristol

This is a quite brilliant piece by Jonathan Liew, and clearly explains why the government and all politicians from the centre and right are so on the wrong side of the argument. I really think this should be a resignation matter for Lisa Nandy, encouraging actual fascism to go to Birmingham.

Kudos to the #SlowHorses location manager.

Can’t understand why you’re all so down on search and AI. Google gave me 2 choices for a December flight from Bristol - Madeira 1. Bris-Madeira non-stop 2. Bris-Aberdeen. Overnight stop: Abdn-Heathrow 5.55 am: Transfer to Gatwick: GTW-Madeira Anyway, just checking the transfer times now

Today I’ve been reading @dorianlynskey.bsky.social on Greenwich Village Dylan in the new Mojo under the watchful eye of the cat making the most of the September sun. Great research and quotes, thoroughly good read. Best buy the mag.

Jesus, the autopen.

Ah yes, sorted Rwanda-Congo in June treaty which would enforce Rwandan troop withdrawal. But as @wikipedia.org notes: ‘As of September 2025, Rwandan troops have not withdrawn from the DRC, and both negotiating processes have stalled.’ #PeacemakerTrump

I’d love to know which of the seven wars Trump has stopped he is most proud of. Expect hechas an answer ready to go … #TrumpStarmer
