Got sent this by a friend and my reaction to the TBR pile in the picture was "pffft, amateur hour". I will be referring myself as a tsundokist now though rather than "problem bibliomaniac"

Behold Plumbert, the many-angled one, who exists outside of the normal realms of time and space, drives those mad who they gaze upon its eldritch visage and can be summoned with a greengage

Books Read 2026 Nos. 1-19 Moving this over here from IG. Struggled to get reading this year so a lot of short / kids books to try and get the brain going (also kids books may slightly be due to Eleanor & Alasdair Read That)

Hey, why not come to that there Elephant & Castle tomorrow afternoon and watch this? It’s better than <insert something else that’s on tomorrow, remember to replace this bit> queercomedyclub.co.uk/event/nick-k...

I am squarely in the middle of the Venn diagram of "cats" and "Twin Peaks"

And lo, the Big Yellow Orb did bring forth the tribe known as Shirtless Man and the people did say, "tsk" (but in their heads because they're English)

Busy on Sunday? The correct answer is, "Yes, because I'm coming to your show (and 101 Rules For A Better World afterwards)" queercomedyclub.co.uk/event/nick-k...

Just some simple facts about my home town youtube.com/shorts/5lH3o...

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- *breathes in* -eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssss!!!!! 12-13 year old me would be delighted that the number of missing eps has reduced by 20 - 20! - since his day... www.bbc.com/news/article...

Little known fact that David Lynch once attempted to reboot a children’s TV classic…

Tonight’s viewing in tribute “I just wanted to say that, over the years, I have come to regard you as… people I met” RIP Rob Grant

Fair enough

“Who’s the lady with the log?” “We call her the Log Lady” Perfect screenwriting, no notes

Has anyone done the sweating joke yet? Ah, OK, just checking

Exactly, a ridiculous stance - my grandfather, called Jack by everyone his entire life, turned out to have been named Wilfred according to his birth certificate...

Had a lovely time doing my show in a lovely theatre to lovely people. Lovely.

Even more Nickhead for '26... linktr.ee/thatbaldyfella

In very much related news, I am doing this on Saturday. Please join the couple of people who have already bought a ticket... app.lineupnow.com/event/rosebu...

Hit me Paul Shane one more time

New podcast (from a talented young producer / editor)… shows.acast.com/101-rules-fo...

I'm actively taking part in Blue Monday By which I mean that I'm walking around in the nude

HELLO! I'm just hear to tell you there's a lovely new sketch with me and @damanbamrah.bsky.social right here: www.youtube.com/shorts/lonT0...

"How's the map coming along?" "Needs more Warrington"

I’m doing a lot of this in ‘26. Come and see one of them linktr.ee/thatbaldyfella

Well done on doing a 2025, everyone. Let’s give it some 2026 this time

2025’s basically out the door. Come on in, 2026…

Produced/recorded over 60 podcast eps (co-hosted half of them); 4 star reviews at Fringe for panel shows; live storytelling & musical improv for 1st time; singing Rocky Horror(!)-2nd time; poem published; 2 hrs as a puppet judge; fewer spots but more paid. Also, full time job all year. Bit tired now

The brains of me and my brother often work in the same way. We once again bought each other the same present at Christmas (tickets to the One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest play). On different days, mind Most impressive was the year we bought each other tickets to a Daniel Kitson gig for the same date

May the day bring you food and drink and food and drink and food and drink and snoozing and games-based-barely-contained-resentment and food and drink and hang-on-no-Doctor-Who? and food and drink and apocalyptic-festive-wind. Enjoy!

Time for a Christmas film

It’s increasingly hard to muster enthusiasm for an era of Doctor Who that has “First Draft, That’ll Do” vibes, combined with “We’re Making An Important Point, You See” (Trying not be “old man shouts at cloud” about it but that’s how it’s feeling at the mo)

I also want to say thank you to the person who introduced me to the French word 'beaucoup' this year. It means a lot.

The countdown to the Switching On Of The Out Of Office begins now...

“Socks left on?”

2026 shall be the Year Of The Nickhead! Come see me on Sat 31st Jan at 13:00 as part of the Rosebuds Festival at the Bread And Roses Theatre Ticket link? You better believe it… app.lineupnow.com/event/rosebu...

You will be visited by three spirits

And counting

Yeah, I guess that seems about… French house??

The sort of video that makes me think, "Yeah, fair play, Skynet, I see your point, you probably should deploy the Terminators"

Tonight and tomorrow!

Big very scary announcement that I never thought I'd have to make so I put nice music and a relaxing nostalgic background on it for you.

Top 5 movie genres are: - Big monster do smashing - Suddenly breaking into random song - Space pew pew pew - Quirkily detached / probable onscreen representation of neurodivergence - Yay, puppets!
