Christmas George is in his rightful place

Hull banging out the hard trance on the PA. Interesting choice.

Another beautiful night for football.

Trans men are men. Trans women are women. Trans rights are human rights and fuck anyone who says otherwise.

Star Wars by LS Lowry, just a bit of fun.

Tonight's gig was Divorce in Edinburgh. Edinburgh looks very Christmassy and Divorce were brilliant. Will also be keeping an eye out for their support Curiosity Shop - never heard them before but I was very impressed

Apologies if I've missed something but in what way does a mansion tax help reduce the type of council tax inequalities Rachel Reeves is on about. All a mansion tax will do is give councils in areas of high housing value more income while those in deprived areas gain nothing.

Proper Doyle doing something that stupid.

Good job I'm off to Oxford and don't have to care about the cricket

Facebook has reminded me that it's 10 years to the day since my kids' first Boro game, a 1-0 win at home to QPR. Tomorrow me & the boy are off to Oxford (sadly no daughter as she's at university). Football is about family and friendship as much as it's about the game on the pitch.

Never doubted this England team. I absolutely did not wake up, look at the score and sigh with sad acceptance of the inevitability of another failure. No, not me.

Well that was quite entertaining

Scott McTominay - fucking hell!

Just off to Marksies brb

My Dad once bought my Mam an iron as part of her Christmas present. He never made that mistake again.

Leaving aside the terrible use of AI this is so patronising. Might as well stick a few whippets, flat caps and tin baths on there while you're at it.

As I was Christmas shopping today in fenwicks perfumes section I smell absolutely gorgeous. Byredo Mojave Ghost if anyone is wondering what to buy me.

Christmas shopping started. I am so organised it's untrue. It is actually untrue - I'm not organised at all

Been to see Bob Dylan in Leeds tonight. How him and his band made a 13k seat arena feel like a small jazz club was truly astonishing. Fantastic gig.

Four away games in a month and a half moved from Saturday to Friday or Monday nights. All of them now needing at least a half day off work and not getting home until at least 1am if you're lucky so the next day is a struggle. Really thinking of the fans. Fuck Sky Sports.

Over the moon for the people who travelled - can't beat a last minute goal away from home

GET IN!!!!!!!

Two hands in the back and a clear shove on Conway but of course nothing given. Because there never is.

How is that assault on Matt Targett not a free kick, second yellow card and sending off? Absolute joke refereeing again.

If anyone wants to know how confusing colour blindness can be that top has so far looked green, purple and only brown cos she says it is & I can get my brain to see it that way. If I'd been forced to say I'd have gone with purple. This is why I should never be trusted to choose colour schemes

Brilliant, no other word for it.

Curry, The Beatles on quite loud and Dan Barlaser playing football on my TV. I'm not sure evenings on the sofa get much better.

It's usually Pacific State that gets mentioned when people think of 808 State but for me this was their masterpiece.

I approve of this poster

At the Glasshouse tonight with my daughter for a brilliant Joni Mitchell tribute show. Live music really is the best music.

Just spent a lot of money on a new pair of gloves. It'd better be a cold winter is all I'm saying. (I have arthritic fingers and they hurt when they get cold so I'm not being entirely frivolous with my spending).

Gregggg and Philip Schofield. Both experienced in TV and free of other commitments. Perfect really. Failing that Gary Lineker and Greta Thunberg just to see how annoyed the daily mail can get before they've even started

First away game since Preston tonight. Been a proper part timer away this season for different reasons so glad to be back at it. #utb

A story in three parts

Tickets for Johnny Marr at Castlefield Bowl in July bought. Always good to have something to look forward to.

Every post from the Tory conference just makes me sad. Like watching a destitute clown begging for pennies.

labour are like a referee who booked someone in the first five minutes for a 50/50 challenge and the game is now spiralling out of control and they’ve sent off over four hundred players

New specs. They look like pretty much every other pair I've had recently, cost a fortune because I have an unerring knack for picking out expensive frames plus I'm old and need varifocals and somehow they were already filthy within 10 minutes of me putting them on.

If you see this post with a concert pic you took

Who needs faith when there's a bottle A bottle gives regular blues Let your mind escape into the bottle Rattle on till it bruise

The Orbit, Morley. This track. Perfection.

Will I be able to wear them in the Metaverse?

First child successfully delivered to university. Relatively stress free and no tears from either side - can't promise I won't be blubbing looking at her empty bedroom later though

Something like this seems to be what they're suggesting. They're not even trying to hide it any more. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktion_...

Make a band singular Simon or Garfunkel
