Forget the superb owls... here we are for some football. Up the #Gills

Absolutely brilliant last line. No spoilers, but Swedish Chef's kiss

The wit, charm and jokes of You're Fired with its studio audience and unseen moments has been replaced with a hunour-free low-budget podcast. #TheApprentice #UnfinishedBusiness is so bad it's remaining Unfinished... I've switched off

This monstrosity was allegedly English breakfast tea and my hotel room didn't have any milk... I have successfully confirmed all English stereotypes by tutting and sighing loudly.

Are they offering magic beans for payment? Cash in a brown envelope? This is a role with a major multinational firm. There is no reason why the job description should exclude a pay band. #recruitment

#Facebook is rolling out monthly charges in the #UK. £2.99 a month on a desktop, £3.99 on mobile, or £6.99 when you go to pay (for Facebook, Instagram and Threads). Makes perfect sense.

Does anyone know if the recipe for #Whiskas has changed? Our fussy fusspot is turning his nose up at it... he won't eat any other brand (we've tried) and he's definitely nibbling treats. And mice and birds.

Just twigged who Stephen reminds me of ... Hen Broon #TheTraitors @sundaypost.com

Repost with your home river

Stephen K Amos is coming to @southstreetarts.bsky.social this Saturday and for @cheeselogs.co.uk I had a wee chat with him. @rdgwhatson.bsky.social #rdguk #rdgcomedy #StephenKAmos cheeselogs.co.uk/2026/01/12/s...

Does Charlotte Church prefer Snakedance or Kinda? She must love one of them enough for this Mara tribute #DoctorWho

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Second email of the day...

Is something wrong with Microsoft Windows 11 sleep settings? I've had two laptops that crash and reboot while in sleep mode. It seems to be a common problem but can't see a solution for it. What could be causing it?

New graphics from Target Ovarian Cancer just dropped. I’m really keen to spread the word about symptoms, so please share either my post or the graphic. Other common symptoms include fatigue & changes in bowel habits, it can seem like IBS, and there’s no routine screening.

Excellent headline in today's @sundaypost.com - well done that sub!

Excellent headline is today's @sundaypost.com - bravo that sub

Happy New Year to you all!

The London fireworks with animations coming out of the Eye is an incredible piece of art. No idea how they are doing it #NewYear2026

I have had a very enjoyable 2025 - my #auracast journey started with new hearing aids, morphed into @aurahear.bsky.social and has seen me travel and meet new people. A real privilege. And there's some very exciting stuff around the corner.

I am allergic to my cat. Since I came back from a work trip to Germany in October my eyes have been watering and nose running. Today I cracked and requested a GP appointment. Called at 4pm - can you come in at 4.30pm? Seen and now in pharmacy at 5pm. That is exceptional service on New Year's Eve.

Second time in four days... back at Priestfield for some hot #Gills action... we're due a win! #UpTheGills

Boxing Day football... cold enough for an unfeasibly long scarf! Up The #Gills

Annual festive viewing unlocked. #DoctorWho #DoctorWhoChristmasSpecial #K9

Look who I bumped into doing his Christmas shopping in Reading! And yes, he knows I would like some Scotch in my stocking. #rdguk #Christmas

The Choir of Royal Holloway to perform From Darkness to Light to Reading Town Hall this January – tickets from @rdgwhatson.bsky.social #rdgwhatson #rdg #classicalMusic #choirs #choralMusic

No they didn't! The 30m figure is Christmas Day plus the Sunday lunchtime repeat.

Things I don't understand: over the past few months the cost of a litre of petrol has gone up, but the cost of a barrel of oil has gone down significantly.

#TheHoliday ... how can Cameron Diaz run through snowy, uneven country lanes in high heels and not look like she's in It's A Knockout? See also cars doing corners at high speed on the High Street

In the 1920s and 30s, newspapers and magazines gave away sheet music as people would gather round the piano for a singalong. The @radiotimes.bsky.social was no exception, and here is its Radio Times tune - enjoy!

After that display I think Luke Littler will be more afraid of Tatsunami than Van Gerwen #darts #PDCdarts

The best writers of TV Guides guide you through Christmas. Hurrah! Love to see Creamguude back

Is Friends Reunited still going? #facebook #meta #NotOnYourNelly www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I am still coming to terms with my honorary doctorate and all the kind words you've shared. I will share some more thoughts over next couple of days, but for now - thank you. BBC News - Journalist Phil Creighton honoured for community publications www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Today is #PantoDay in the UK, and what better way to celebrate than by going to see Beauty and the Beast for the third time this week? oh yes I am! #rdguk #ImagineTheatre @rdgwhatson.bsky.social

It's the most wonderful time of the year #HappyChristmas

Just been watching the new Sea Devils. Never thought I'd say this about the story but the soundtrack is blooming awful. It never stops. Quiet moment? Yep, slap some music on. Walking? Make it dramatic. Its tonally at odds with the story. Bah! #doctorwho

Major London theatres - alongside deaf journalists, advocates, hearing care professionals and technology companies - have called on arts venues to commit to “working towards a future” that is enabled with Bluetooth’s new Auracast technology by 2030.

Here at The Hexagon for Beauty And The Beast - expect a review of the #rdgpanto later tonight on @cheeselogs.co.uk Very excited! #rdguk @rdgwhatson.bsky.social

Well now, there's a surprise. A Christmas surprise. #ChristmasTV #IfYouKnowYouKnow #TogetherAtChristmas

We are not allowed new ideas any more. However lovely this is, its the fifth Aardman Christmas cover in recent times: 2008, 2010, 2015, last year and now this. Its a great image... Just same old, same old. #ChristmasTV #ChristmasRadioTimes

My most listened to track on #Spotify this year? The theme tune to The South Bank Show. As @cameronyardejnr.bsky.social would say, it's a banger.

Reindeer effluent: Why Christmas TV 2025 has lost its sparkle – my thoughts on the same old, same old BBC #ChristmasDay schedules – and what I'd do differently #ChristmasTV philcreighton.uk/uncategorize...

I'm watching Return of the Saint on #ITVX at the moment, so I'm seeing their Christmas on ITV trailers. And I'm really impressed - it's something new and different. A really strong set of trailers. Bravo!

@cameronyardejnr.bsky.social have you made your Christmas Day BBC1 schedule predictions yet?

It was great to pop back on to the @uniofreading.bsky.social campus this lunchtime and pick up a copy of the new Spark. A great debut issue - looking forward to seeing where this goes.

I cant see the pitch due to the sun, but I know I'll be cheering on the #Gills in Shrewsbury

Don't get them confused

Preparing for my #Auracast talk at the AIHHP #HearingExpo this Friday and went on a little trip down memory lane. Who else still has their #NHS hearing aid case?
