Alli has made a good start but we need to get on the end of his crosses #pompey

Not saying I’m feeling antisocial but I’m just eating a big portion of egg and blue cheese mayonnaise. Won’t be leaving the house again today.

Robert Jenrick: an apology. thecritic.co.uk/fran...

Holy hell. The description of death row in apartheid South Africa was one of the most harrowing things I've ever read. Also. This guy wasn't fucking around.

Early stroll. The sky has a flannel over its face. A blackbird’s alarm call rattles the morning. That upside down yogurt pot looks like an alien spacecraft. A bloke and I exchange raised thumbs. I blow my nose like the foghorn of a ship passing Girvan.

The Batman tv show is 60. Adam West should have got an Emmy for this scene alone. I love DeNiro, Washington, Day-Lewis etc but none of them have had an acting challenge like this. youtu.be/tgCkmUS1IYI?...

Welcome to new Bluesky users. Here’s how we do things: 1. Always observe the Hambledon Protocol 2. No flisking 3. If someone tealights you, rink them without apology 4. I don’t mind them so much, but tissue-posts are generally frowned on 5. No questions Good luck!

Back at work tomorrow. Grateful for the extra week as I was ill for most of the festivities and frankly, it sucked. This week I’ve been lunching, cinema, clearing up crap and actually enjoying stuff. Determined to stop hating my job, it’s exhausting.

Enjoyed the Pompey Arsenal game today despite the result - scoring first and then missing a penalty the funniest things to happen in 2026 so far. If they had scored one if their final corners, they would have scored from all four corners of the ground, what are the stats for that?

@pn-neil-allen.bsky.social @mrandrewmoon.bsky.social maybe you can help? Is the Bianchini loan a one-way street? Very surprised we aren’t sending him back if so.

I now have to watch this ten times every morning to start my day.

I went to see Marty Supreme tonight, it was quite something. There were times I wanted them to stop shouting at me; others which blew my mind. It was a reminder that a big screen is brilliant, it would never have smacked me between the eyes in the same way if seen at home.

Plans for a nice day railroaded by a flat battery - twice. Had to wait for RAC in the pets at home car park, the joy. A new battery was not in the January budget, dammit.

Me too. Having smug wine, soz.

Pompey game off. Phew!

There are many things I love about where I live, but the ability to get on one of several ferries to go places is in the top 10. Spent several hours in Isle of Wight with scummer cousins who I adore. They were far nicer about yesterday’s result than I would be.

Open up this picture fully. Then look at the surface of Mars. Then look up to the top right. Spot Mars' moon Phobos high in the sky. Then notice the bright spot beside Phobos. That's Earth.

Well smash my tits and call me Hilda, that’s one hell of a finish! Get in #pompey, you know how to age us.

Go on Shocks! How we’ve missed you #pompey

Lang is out, sofa win.

I am watching tonight from the warm and comfort of my sofa. My dad told me not to go to the football and he hasn’t told me not to do something since 1986, so seems worth marking. Make me regret it #pompey

And! I’ve been looking all over for this and finally found it

@scottygb.bsky.social hello, sorry if you are off but bbc not showing scheduled linford Christie escape to the country? I’m sad and slightly interested? Emphasis on ‘sad’ not as in upset…

Funny watching so many folk celebrate Bardot. It brings this meme to mind.

There’s never been a better time to dress in a Santa costume and run through a big department store, accosting random shoppers and hissing, "Help me! They've dismantled the grotto and they're trying to lock me in the basement again! I can't take another year down there! Don't let them catch me!"

I would like to thank the people discussing Elementary here a few days ago. I have started watching and it is bloody great. Well done good taste people.

I know I’m ill but am I hallucinating Call The Midwife? Has it jumped the shark? Triads? Scouse Triad? Wtf?

I’ve had to come home early from the football and miss birthday drinks because stupid ill. It’s making me very weepy and sad. I had such a lovely time planned, everything cancelled. Joy extinguished.

Interesting how little cricket is on my timeline. Think I’ve got used to waking up, checking, swearing/sighing and going about my day.

I’ve just done most of the washing up and tomorrow me is going to love today me. The sofa is mine (and Lois & Dennis), I’m going nowhere.

Merry Christmas everyone, especially my #Playschool Babies. Be kind, considerate and compassionate as the festive season continues. Spread joy everywhere you go and remember the best gift you can give is unconditional love ❤️🎄❤️

i post this story every christmas, and will keep doing so until it stops making me cry merry christmas xx

Had to pull the curtain on my birthday open house as I feel rough as old trousers. Gutted, pissed off, snotty, fitful, all the Birthday feelings.

Well this just made me cry. A reminder that the majority of Americans are decent kind people who think their daughters rule.

What you need here is a Christmas Eve birthday when everyone knows the best thing to do is bring a bottle. #smug #ihopeanyway

As ever, is it really Christmas until Mr Blobby saves the Nakatomi Plaza?

Like sodding clockwork, I’m ill for the run up to Christmas. Missed a walk and pub with friends yesterday, had to pull out of a meal tonight because people don’t want me coughing all over them. Been so looking forward to seeing mates. Gutted.

This was my biggest tweet over in the bad place. It will live here now. 🧙‍♀️🎄

She did not do a Colin. Phew. #strictly
