Quite lush. Happy Monday evening. (managed to plough through a load of marking today and off to the gym in a pretty good mood).

Watching Oscar Isaac's Frankenstein for the plot:

He's only done it again. @marcjb.bsky.social: "I hope ypu won't get bored of doing a chicken dinner when we actually get moved in together."

Sunday movement and mood boost 💪

Evening, Saturday.

So close to being home with a parmo, lads 🙏 It's been a lush little solo evening out.

Pit stop and away home.

Well isn't that canny! 🌳✨️

Happy Friday folks! 🔥

Night market, mulled wine and CAKES 🙌

Counting down until I can escape work and this marking for some Friday Christmas lights switch on fun out in the world.

Can't wait to bloody move ffs 🙃

Teaching done for Thursday and thankful for some desk time to make a dent in marking. Coffee big as me head please!

Bonfire night and full moon fog 🔥🌕

Rest day from gym tonight, but pushing with new routine since the weekend has made me absolutely ravenous getting to end of work today. Get me home and FED 👀

So releived that Wednesday is a much lighter teaching day in the week 😮‍💨

Student, messages me: Sorry I've been absent sir, I have Covid, but I will make sure to be back for your lesson tomorrow. Me: No you bloody won't.

In tonight's episode of Brain Rot, talking to @marcjb.bsky.social on the phone and saying how much chillier it is with the wind tonight: "Ooh it's Chillbur Smith." like Wilbur Smith, me mam had all the books. Cannot stop saying this to describe a chill 🫠 Goodnight.

Really came together tonight after a full-on day 💪

New book Monday, feat. thumb I almost sliced off last night chopping broccoli 👍

Well, survived busy Monday back in the classroom! Not enjoying the pre-5pm darkness coming in now.

One class down, 4 and a half hours to go 🙃

Remembered to back every sodding thing in my bag, even making two false starts out the door this morning, except my staff badge, gr8 🙃

Still not mentally prepared to be back to teaching tomorrow 😭 Mon and Tues my busiest back-to-back days of the week. Sort me out before bed, Coco 🫖

Sunday (roast) scaries induced food coma.

If you’re showing pit, there’s a 99.99% I wanna sniff it, just sayin’

A quick one, but decent nonetheless 💪 Now to buy a chicken 🍽

Eventually made it outdoors and headed to the gym! 🍂

Told myself I was going to get up early and go to the gym today, yet still in bed 👀🫤

Science fiction double feature tonight 🫦⚡️

Thorougly over "friends" only remembering you exist at the last minute.

Excellent choices.

Happy Saturday, handsome bloomfs! 🙌💙

You're a creature of the nignt Michael! ... My own brother, a goddamn shit-sucking vampire!

Later than planned but halloween film night still going on 🦇

It's Halloween! Quote with your Top 4 Ghost-Type Pokémon 👻

Cake was a success. Threw in some extra spooky boys for a mould I found in the cupboard. Film night underway 🙌🦇 Lights off, not home.

Inspired by @andyukb.bsky.social it's time to bake a spiced apple cake ahead of spooky film night. Think the lineup is gonna be: 🕷Elvira Mistress of the Dark 🦇The Lost Boys ❓️ third film to be decided - suggestions?

Spooky day 👻🎃

Halloween decorations or have the bins just not been?

Not an M&S spooky jelly or creepy crisp to be had anywhere.

Welp, another not great ep of Drag Race UK. Bad elimination choice. Honestly don't think I'll carry on watching this one now. Time to cleanse with this week's Drag Race Spain.

New boys! 😍✨️ #ptcgp

Job done 💪 Getting there.

à la salle de peculation, les gars ➡️

Lads, it has been taking some doing but we have grown the first semblances of a pec.

If GRRM destroys AI's ongoing art theft, I'll forgive him for not finishing Winds of Winter

If you only want to learn about James Whale because he was a hunk who only got finer with age, well I think that's just dandy. Lots more details and pics in my new video! youtu.be/2hU9jiUTFLo

Matt Baume (@mattbaume.bsky.social), you have done it again. This is a magnificent biography and tribute to James Whale. I think you have made a compelling case for why he is one of the greatest of all time. Also, someone needs to make a soundboard of Una O'Connor's screams and shrieks.
