The dog is currently going through cold turkey with his ball addiction. Had to do an intervention. I feel for him.

Oh look, a cold 🤧..yay

Tonight we're playing 'Will Deliveroo Get The Right House?' I'm betting not. Despite the address being right. Hoping they can tell the difference between a house and a flat this time. 😬

Richard Dawkins believes that thunder is made when clouds bump into each other.

Last night in #Cornwall and as usual I can't wait to return. Stumbled into a 'locals spot' in Laneath Village Hall just outside #Looe, #thetipsycow Thursday is burgers night. And boy they do a good #burger 🍔

Cornwall for a mini staycation ⛱️

The humble sausage roll has a surprising history! #foodsky #foodhistory #video

Lost at least two followers because of my Gregg's Chicken Roll review. Wait until you see my long protracted treatise on The Big Arch. Oncologist appointment this morning. Possibly MRI scan results too. Bleugh 🙃

🧵Greggs is the Reality TV of the bakery world. Difficult to understand the appeal, yet people keep finding reasons to watch — mostly out of morbid fascination and habit. Cheap, acceptable, purely functional. I was completely addicted to their sausage rolls when I worked at the college, so (1/6)

I'm writing silly videos. I think it's for my own amusement more than anything. This is about Danes Wood near #Exeter - there are a lot of AI created bits, so yeah 🤷‍♂️

I feel I should say more about geopolitics. I read enough about it. But I genuinely do not know what to say that hasn't been said before.

Quick update: MRI this afternoon, moved up from 30 April so it doesn’t clash with holiday. Nothing urgent. CT scan and oncologist Tuesday too. Big medical week. Head down, get it done. Fingers crossed the stats stay on my side for a while yet.

If you're not doing this, is it even Easter?

Doing well 🤣🤣

Reach PLC doing a great job at local journalism. This is the Mayor of Bath... 🫠 #exeter #devon

Scott Mills? Nooooo. C'mon. Now what?

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

I vary myself between here and Threads. I can’t start to say how sick I am of adverts. I like the fact bs has no ads yet, unlike IG and now Threads. Hope it stays like this.

Can't believe Claudia Winkelman got her own show. I thought she only had fringe appeal. #oneliner

Open up

Well #insidethemanosphere is just harrowing

#rant I love my dog but boy has he been tedious 😬

What the hell is it with everything having to contain protein? Surely everything that used to contain protein still does? Can't be good for your kidneys if you have kidney issues 🫠

If I have a painting and decorating company I'm going to call it Tin Pot Decorators #pun

Orcombe Point in #Exmouth #beach #Devon - misty afternoon with the dog. This end of the beach is much easier to walk if you are less mobile. Sad to see so much sand has washed away but it's fascinating to see the new rock formations which have been uncovered.

Us: hey dog, fancy a walk on the beach? Dog: oh my god yes, I love the beach it is my favourite place in the world ever. Us: on the way we have to go through a shop and get something. Dog:

No. Cat yes. The rest of it. No. #fryup #foodsky

For the 29th tike today the dog has decided he wants to go out. I think a fox has trotted past the back gate. I have set up some cheese cold smoking so I'm not just standing in the middle of the communal area like a lemon.

For the 28th effing time today the dog has declared he wants to go out.

Fear not, I found my insults folder.

Years ago, on X (hush in the back), I was lucky to be followed by @pickardje.bsky.social who picked me as a result of a tweet. I was very happy that this had happened but now I have moved to Bluesky I hope that he might follow me again in my bid to recreate a nice status quo like the one I had b4 :)

Is anyone else watching The Heat on #itv - what are your thoughts? #tvthreads

True.

Found this I took a couple of years ago in the archives. #exmouth #blackandwhitephotography #bnw #devon

I wrote a small thought about Zukis in Exeter. I'm still getting the hang of Substack, not entirely convinced. open.substack.com/pub/foo404/p...

Twat.

Fancy seeing a bunch of people losing their minds in outrage over tourette syndrome and blatantly not understanding how it works? Threads is definitely the place to be for that #calmdown

Despite the fatigue, we got out to be rewarded with this gorgeous #sunset 🌇 #devon

Well three hours sleep and a big dose of steroids is making things fun 😬🙃

Me after my first mega dose of prednisolone 🙃

Found my first Reform Troll on Reddit accusing someone of having Reform Derangement Syndrome or RDS as they abbreviated it.

Dog: Human, I want biscuits. Human: *spreads them on the floor as per the mandatory method* Dog: No I want the biscuits in the bag Human: They're the same biscuits Dog: No they're not. I want those ones. Human: 🤦‍♂️ #dogsofbluesky

Just walking the dog. Thought I was telling him to wait. Instead I said 'Alexa, STOP!' My dog's name is not Alexa 🙃

I'm firing up my trusty old Windows XP IBM - I've pretty much had it with modern windows machines. I need some alone time spent with a defragging screen and an enthusiastic paperclip.

Thought I'd try out Uber Eats. Currently watching our food go on a guided tour of Exeter 🫠

This is my review of #ZephyrBurgers in #Plymouth. It took me 🦆ing ages to put together #burgersky - managed to lose two subscribers as a result 🫠 diningdevon.com/2026/02/10/z...

Nice when a familiar name pops up in research - I'm looking into pre-Instagram food bloggers who are still going like myself @kavey.bsky.social

I'm on floor duty tonight. Tonight's toy de soir is the Orange Ball which is eternally getting stuck under the sideboard 🙃
