Here’s a thought — Maybe these people don’t deserve to be handsomely rewarded? (From NPR)

No idea why Tuchel is getting all the hate over his squad selection. Toney's experience playing in half-empty stadiums under an authoritarian regime could prove invaluable.

Heading in the Alps on a rickety old TGV. Looks like the Cinema Narcisco at Busseleno has also seen better days.

I know a lot about art, but I don't know what I like. Really enjoyed the Rothko in Firenze exhibition though.

Feels slightly uncanny to be greeted with a casual 'Salve' when walking around Herculaneum.

Doing 299kph on the FRECCIAROSSA between Milan and Bologna. This is definitely the fastest I've ever travelled backwards.

I cannot overstate how completely insane this story is

The Guardian style guide has the right balance of authority and humour. aggravate Using this word to mean annoy, rather than make worse, really aggravates some people. Good. Both meanings have been around for more than 400 years, and there is no good reason why both should not be acceptable now.

A good afternoon watching Bristol Rovers women against Keynsham Town. Comfortable win for the home team. Not sure why Rovers have all these red and white flags in the home end. Wouldn't happen at Everton.

Come on you Blues! #utft #everton #bristoltoffees #guinness

A beautiful day for the first derby at our new stadium. Enjoy it Blues! #utft #kag

Who needs LIV Golf when you can have EVE Golf!

Listening to Madra Salach in session on Radio 6 Music. Raw beauty. Takes me back to their recent stunning gig at The Thekla.

Just advertised these old curtains on a 'buy nothing' Facebook group. I was going to add 'No poles' but decided it might be misinterpreted.

"Many drivers see speed limits, cameras and enforcement as personal inconveniences. We must communicate the concept that driving is a responsibility, not an entitlement. This means better driver education and a public conversation that centres victims, rather than complaints about 20mph zones."

“What’s missing in the rest of the world is courage,” she said. “Mayors could say: ‘This is my opportunity [to leave a] legacy,’ but most will not dare.”

First pint on The Moor Mile at The Golden Guinea.

Thick fog swallows the Olympia livery of the outbound 16 as it pulls into Granville Street exactly on time. This reliability proves the system can work, making Mayor Helen Godwin’s refusal to commit to franchising beyond merely exploring it feel like a choice to leave us stranded.

This will be a good night. See you there.

Route 39 stutters past Wine Street fifteen minutes late on its outbound journey toward Bath. Local passengers pay £2.60 for these gaps in service, while Manchester’s franchised Bee Network delivers a £2 flat fare and a 14% increase in patronage.

Madra Salach were great at The Thekla in Bristol last night.

Beautiful day for a short walk along the Kennet and Avon canal to visit Kettlesmith Brewery yesterday. Beer fresh from the tank.

I see potential in the Everton/Heinz deal going further than just being sauce suppliers. I got a tin of alphabet spaghetti once but it was just full of letter O’s.

Just watched the first episode of this drama documentary about the privatised water companies routinely dumping raw sewage in our rivers and sea. And blatantly lying about doing it. A brilliant exposure of this disgraceful situation.

Poetry. Bot poetry. Boetry?

Thanks to people for liking this post. And extra thanks for not pointing out that I spelt 'fair' wrong! I was stood up in the bouncy bit between carriages!

Announcement on packed train to Bristol. If have a vacant seat next to you, the good news is you are on public transport and people are allowed to sit next to you. Please remove any luggage from seats. We'll be going along the train with a ticket machine and charging full fair for luggage on seats.

Love this Bristol bus bot. Factual bus updates delivered with waspish comments about the operator.

The clear morning sky over Gloucester Road watches the inbound 75 arrive at Hatherley Road nine minutes ahead of schedule. A battery-electric motor makes for a quiet pursuit of Hengrove while the rest of North Bristol is still asleep.

Great result for Everton in the stately homes derby. Lewis Hall vs Dewsbury Hall #efc #UTFT

BREAKING: Pam Bondi appears to have just committed a federal crime by lying under oath. Ted lieu just caught her in a lie and called for her resignation live on TV.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Well, I never felt more like singing the Blues... #UTFT
