I was very disparaging about the first episode of #TheNightManager and I stick with my view it was all exposition and too much of it. But by the time it got to the end, my word it had fit into its own skin very comfortably. Superb climax.

Backed Gaelic Warrior for the Ryanair. Can’t see him not running in it.

How am I supposed to know if someone sent me $75,000??

It’s such a shame that both recent Indiana Jones films were so spectacularly lacking in credibility. With all the effects now available to us, the potential was enormous. The fridge scene in Crystal Skull is superb. But the overall concept is daft beyond belief. So too Dial of Destiny. Sigh.

Tough month after Xmas what with all the bills and tax demands. Anyone know where I can draw down on my Brexit dividend?

#Bridgerton Seaon 4 reminds me of something. I just wish I could put my glass slipper on it…

Emma Raducanu. More coaches than National Express.

Leaseholders in Bristol are being ripped off £250 ground rent cap is step forward but not enough And I'll be following up with the minister about appalling insurance premiums post cladding-scandal that are stopping some leaseholders moving But leaseholders also face... 🧵

While I can’t work, can’t get home and can’t plan the rest of my week because of some rain, my ruling government - who forever berate me for productivity - is focusing on deciding which gobshite can or cannot represent them… Good stuff.

Finished #HisandHers on Netflix. It’s very good. Strong Presumed Innocent vibes. Good script. Good performances. Twistier than a twisty thing. 8/10

I can’t wait for Nigella’s double entendres on #BakeOff. I’m sure she’ll manage to slip one in.

I know what it is Jo. It’s not being able to defend since 2016…

John Wick #Ballerina is so ridiculous it might be a future classic. Or an absolute turkey. It’s that kind of film.

Honestly think this is more important even than Putin’s vanity project… nations that have freed themselves of Soviet occupation, that now have better living standards, are a direct rebuke of everything Putin claims, and as said below, would eventually likely lead to domestic upheaval in Russia.

Faraaz is giving me massive Nick Mohammed vibes… #Traitors

Another lovely review… It could run and run if I could find that one elusive ingredient.

This is why social media must be banned or regulated. Not just for under 16s. For all.

Why don’t we listen to Dire Straits any more?

Finished all by himself…

Most sensible person on #PoliticsLive today is of course the young man speaking on behalf of young people.

Finally someone on #PoliticsLive calling for social media to be regulated as publishers. Simple. Do it today.

My wife: ‘Of course Rachel is good. She’s used to lying. She’s in PR.’ Ouch. #Traitors

Are you a traitor? No. No. No. Well that’s a relief. What a total numpty. #Traitors

Every time I order a slot car from Europe and they add tax onto it, I thank all those fuckwits who voted for Brexit.

Look. No one should be on social media. Not until it’s: Fully regulated Totally transparent All Russian bots are removed All democratic subversion is removed Platforms are accountable for defamation/libel Never mind the kids.

There’s no doubt AI could be brilliant. But it isn’t. We need to focus it on solving real world problems. Like SatNav. Knowing every route, crunching every journey, estimating where accidents occur ahead of time in any given set of variables. Rerouting BEFORE the hold ups. For example.

In Davos, at the World Economic Forum, Ukraine was not allowed to display what the Russian drone that attacks the country every night looks like. So we decided to show you the Russian weapons that are used to kill Ukrainians. This is not a small drone for catching beautiful photos 👇 UkraineWorld

They shout on a Wednesday and defect on a Thursday…! Now that was quite funny…

Anyone committed to preventing Russia from engaging in a world war would be committed to supporting Ukraine. Today.

Latest review is in. And I’ll take it any day of the week. Read it for FREE on Kindle Unlimited. Read a sample on Amazon. Buy a copy for your nan… amzn.eu/d/fIxT2MI #Books #JackReacher #FrenchJackReacher

A cheery note to end on #SaintsFC fans. Only Sheffield Wednesday in worse form.. 😬😬

It’s totally possible to win the league scoring 35 goals. And to end up mid table scoring 70. If you cannot defend you will never succeed in football. And #SaintsFC have been unable to defend since Ronald Koeman left. That’s my #2016 throwback…

This task on #Traitors is brilliant. They’re going to analyse it to death at the table.

Watched #TheLifeofChuck and really enjoyed it. One of the better adaptations of Stephen King I reckon. Not easy to do given the concept. But nicely done.

Newark. We all know it’s an anagram for Jenrick. Right?

Racist joins racists isn’t really news lads.

Why is Stephen dressed like he’s filming Space 1999?

I normally drink their Chardonnay. But it’s cold. It’s wet. And I needed just a splash of warmth and comfort on this hibernation of days. And this is splendidly good.

Harry Cobden finally good enough to ride losers… 😉

How is it possible that Casino Royale is 20 years old this year?

The Beatles broke up the year I was born. And I’ve always felt a deep sense of responsibility for that.

Hahah! Where’s this come from asks Ed Chamberlin of a JP horse that was lapped the last twice and then hoses up… I wonder. 🥸

Get in the old boy!!!!

These are the days when racing doesn’t feel like a real sport. One good meeting is cancelled so instead we show any old nonsense racing. Imagine a test match is off so they choose to show Canterbury versus Tonbridge…

There’s way too much wailing about England’s performance down under. It was actually BETTER than: 21 - Lost 4-0 18 - Lost 4-0 14 - Lost 5-0 So thanks to Baz we’ve won the first test down under for 12 fucking years!! Some people need a bloody good look in the mirror.

Oh look. You used to be able generate illegal inages for free on X. Now you can have them if you subscribe. Yet there’s such a simple solution. BAN SOCIAL MEDIA or Regulate social media as publishers.

Brand uses AI slop advertising to do the job that its own consumers would once have done. Saves money by not generating its own future sales. Doh.

They say integrity is what you do and say when no one else is listening. But it’s also what you do and say when everyone is listening.

Watching #TheBeatles Anthology on Disney +. And remembering how Lennon and McCartney are/were the world’s best ever songwriters. And how ‘All You Need is Love’ is probably almost certainly the most perfect song and best ever written. In 500 years they’ll be revered like Beethoven and Mozart.

We should never have appointed a manager at #SaintsFC. The only time we won games was when we didn’t have one…
