How Jon Stewart and his team of writers can produce 20 mins of flawless satire in a few hours will never cease to amaze me youtu.be/uaAuXttZbDM

My dog watching me eat toast at breakfast

music.apple.com/gb/album/dad... A six-track EP of the awesome music from Daddy Issues is now available. James Righton is the musical genius behind it all. So lucky to have him onboard and frankly over-delivering track after gorgeous track 🙏

I have questions. Will I still like the Pope? Will he still smoke dope?

Fun Nigel Havers interview in The Guardian. Enjoyed this memory of his time on I’m a Celeb - “There was a bloke called Lembit Öpik, the politician. After a couple of days, I wanted to kill him. Had I stayed, I would’ve killed him and I’d be in prison now. “ www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ap...

Nightcap ☺️

Sing Sing is a magical piece of work isn’t it? Can’t believe this film isn’t loudly in the conversation for all the top awards. It’s on Amazon Prime if you need an antidote to all the ugliness in the world at the moment

And we’re back… ❤️

Clear denial of a Gull scoring opportunity

With the 9 bonus points we get for overcoming the Michael Oliver handicap, I believe that Arsenal win takes us top of the Premier League. Excellent day at the office.

Can’t wait for Guardian Football Weekly to explain how that was a deserved red and we’re all tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theorists

Ha. Football. Bloody hell. I think that’s the most blatant attempt by the referee to handicap Arsenal since, well the other two red cards that we have had this season that literally no other team would ever get

for the potato fears not death

Seeing as no one asked for it, my top three Xmas movies this year - Heretic (mention of Jesus’ birth) Planes, Trains and Automobiles (Thanksgiving so basically Xmas) Nebraska (has snow in it)

Werner Herzog's The Snowman (1982) "We are not walking in the air but plunging towards terra firma like a parachutist who took the instructor's wife as a mistress. Little boy, here is your lesson in entropy: love gives life. But time destroys all. Your only friend is a puddle."

That ending gets me every time…

If anyone wants a bit of wholesomeness on this cold and barren Monday morning, here’s Real Betis fans raining down thousands of stuffed toys for disadvantaged children in their annual Christmas tradition

Bit concerned that Deliveroo gifted me this tea towel for being a good customer. Might as well have sent an actual red flag with the words fat and lazy embroidered on it

Oh, and happy winter solstice, obviously

Massive away win for the little fella.

Good to see Luftwaffe Commander in Chief Joe Hart at Anfield yesterday

Happy ninth anniversary of the opening night of Funny Girl at the Menier Chocolate Factory in south London, a production which gave rise to one of the best pull quotes ever seen by human eyes

18 hours into December and I’ve already developed a ruinous Quality Street addiction

I feel seen

When you think it’s home time but there’s still 40 minutes to go.

🎵That’s what my hearth Yearns for now🎵

Loving that this site doesn’t seem to want to feed my unconscious desire to see Jeremy Vine cycling and being called a wanker by delivery drivers

I’m not crying, you’re crying

Never understood why etiquette dictates you use a fork with the prongs bent away and down. Kinda obviously designed to carry food like a shovel isn’t it? Feels like a stupid British class thing - do other nations do it like us?

Danish Wetherspoons does exactly what it says on the tin

Good morning Copenhagen! I’ve come for your bacon

A song to remind me of the most useful phrases I have learnt from Italian Duolingo. (Sound up)

My barista correctly guessed I was the kind of guy who likes penguins with massive bollocks
