You spectacularly generous people have raised £13k so far. We have a beyond-excited three year old likely to wake us at 5am, so it’s an early night here. I’ll have to catch up with the pix in the morning ♥️ #DuvetKnowItsChristmas www.gofundme.com/f/duvet-know...

We've brought our own tent to my sister-in-law's so we can have our own little boutique hotel room in the back of the lounge. #duvetknowitschristmas

One of the greatest Christmas traditions, thanks to lovely @rhodri.biz - here's the link to contribute if you can ❤️

#DuvetKnowItsChristmas My poor son and daughter-in-law have been relegated to the study this year because the room they normally sleep in is full (literally) of my other daughter-in-law-to-be’s wedding dress hanging up and I don’t dare touch it!

One of the best parts of Christmas… it’s #duvetKnowItsChristmas A laugh about where we are sleeping tonight, and a few pennies for those who don’t have a bed. Merry merry, all 🎄 www.gofundme.com/f/duvet-know...

I’ve just discovered #DuvetKnowItsChristmas, where people share the funny/awkward/downright strange sleeping situations they find themselves in while visiting family. While I’m comfortably in my own home this year, when I visit my parents in their teeny retirement cottage, my bed looks like this 🤣

Always good to see a fellow cat appear on #DuvetKnowItsChristmas - for any of my friends that haven't seen it before, it's shepherded by @rhodri.biz and sees people sharing pictures of their temporary sleeping arrangements while visiting family or friends on Christmas Eve. It's a delight x

Professor Hannah Fry proving 'Father Christmas' is real? #FindingFatherChristmas is perfect Christmas eve fodder.

Can't believe its been 15 years, but it's a proper 'tradition' now. #DuvetKnowItsChristmas

Ok, who’s up for playing #DuvetKnowItsChristmas ? There’s a bingo card created by bsky.app/profile/cars...

#duvetknowitschristmas Having recently moved to Cornwall, I am back in London staying with my parents in my childhood bedroom. Don't get me wrong, it's very comfortable but check out 1984! The curtains and the wardrobe haven't been changed since then!

Yay, we have the Dalek again! #DuvetKnowItsChristmas

We've banished my brother to the office. No curtains? No problem. Gaffer tape and black card has done the job. #DuvetKnowItsChristmas

Some absolute corkers already--get in (and donate to help unhoused people if you can!) #DuvetKnowItsChristmas gofund.me/80d72f790

If you are at a bit of a loose end this evening do yourself a favour and follow @rhodri.biz for #DuvetKnowItsChristmas

Don’t forget to follow #duvetknowitschristmas today for its 15th year of providing hilarious pictures of awkward bedding arrangements and raising money for charity!

The idea of a Christmas Book Flood makes me so happy!

Judicial Review withdrawn for Metrolink! If the State is, as reported, buying the homes as an offer to end the Judicial Review then said homes should be used to add onto our public housing stock and be converted into public housing to help alleviate our ever increasing homeless numbers. #Metrolink

I mean yeah it’s an authoritarian takeover but can we take some comfort in the fact that the people doing it are INSANELY stupid?

Hey all #JoinIn is coming up for Christmas and don't forget #duvetknowitschristmas always good for a laugh (and a good cause).

So are we using this Bingo card again this year? #DuvetKnowItsChristmas

It's that time of year again. And there's a feed. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Jeez I've just read Thomas Skinners statement re #Strictly. What an absolute knob!

AP: At least 16 files have disappeared from the DOJ webpage for documents related to Jeffrey Epstein with zero explanation or notice to the public apnews.com/article/rele...

Can anyone smart and/or Chinese find a link where you can buy the Mandarin version of my book? I cannot.

Karen Carney and Carlos Gu have been crowned the 2025 Strictly Come Dancing Champions in what was an emotional filled final. Karen and Carlos saw off Amber and Nikita and George and Alexis to win the the iconic glitter ball #StrictlyComeDancing #bbc #uktv

Absolutely deserving winner. Delighted! #Karen and Carlos. #Strictly

Karen has been an absolute revelation this series. #Strictly She always looks like she is having such fun. I absolutely love that jive.

Do you notice how, the higher the evidence stacks up that our ruling class is basically just a gaggle of coercive arse-grabbers covering up for each other, the more extreme their terror of foreign sex criminals and transgenders lurking in toilet cubicles grows

may every trans child grow into a trans adult

Fab jive from Amber. Loads of fun! #Strictly

Once again Karen has done the best show dance, though not a perfect performance. #Strictly Lots of fun though.

Another not great show dance from #George if I'm honest. I'm just not feeling this #Strictly final

Technical show dance from Amber, not a lot of fun! #Strictly

I really enjoyed that performance from Karen. Best first dance so far. #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing

First 2 performances up and I haven't seen a perfect routine yet. Lots of nerves I think. #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing

Your usual reminder that the UCKG is an extraordinarily shady outfit. It is not clear what the money they collect is for or where it goes. They are collecting all over London today. Avoid.

Doesn’t feel good that the head of BBC News Content is instructing reporters to refer to trans people with slurs. If this leak is real it raises questions about who made this decision, who was consulted, and why the BBC chose to ignore its own editorial guidelines on slurs and offensive language

Update: risen to six ICC judges now. 🇺🇳 Judge Alapini-Gansou has the unique honour of being sanctioned by both US and Russia.

Today is 2025-12-19, the sun sets at 16:06:51 and the grand auld stretch tonight was 1 min and 08 secs. #GrandStretch #TheGrandStretchIsBack

Just heard that in that FF report into the presidential race, Micheál Martin was genuinely taken aback when he was told that some people had never even heard of Jim Gavin. He was taken aback by perspectives different to his own That is the most FF thing I ever heard.
