First trip to The Amex for a couple of months, after a back injury. So, who are we playing? Oh. #bhafc

Woke up at half-five, buzzing with excitement and anticipation for #TheAshes. Why? Why was I hopeful? Of course we're getting thrashed.

Revisiting 'Revenge of the Goldfish' by Inspiral Carpets. What an album - one banger after another. An hour well spent.

One of those lovely #parkrun mornings where I just plodded round, not caring about the time. A gentle bit of exercise and 5k in the bank to start the weekend.

And then we won 3-0 at home. #bhafc

What an extraordinary game of cricket. Well played, India!🏏 #CWC25

Had a lovely day exploring Worcester. What a beautiful city. Found a pub for the football. Trust The Albion to spoil a cracking day. #bhafc

Great win! UTA!! #bhafc Nasty Minteh attacking boots with his head!

Light rain for Eastbourne #parkrun- perfect for cooling us down as we ran. Loved it!

Fair play, Fabian. Subs changed the game. What a turnaround! #bhafc

We are awful. I don't recognise the team from last season. #bhafc

Last of the summer overseas parkruns done. Today was the beautiful Centennial #parkrun in Sydney. Lakes, avenues of trees - loved it.

Had the privilege of doing Puarenga #parkrun in Rotorua - a geothermal parkrun. Lovely crowd of people there. Thanks for the warm welcome.

First overseas #parkrun done in Melbourne. Thanks to all at Parkville Parkrun.

Metallica tickets secured. Very excited.

Ferguson to Roma - not sure how to feel about that. Thought we had a £100m striker on our hands, but he really struggled last season. Good luck to him; hopefully, he'll rediscover his form. #bhafc

I was listening to the nail-biting conclusion to the Test Match whilst trying to proofread my school reports. What a brilliant finish!🏏 My reports still need proofreading.

Such awful news of Diogo Jota's death. It's indescribably tragic, seeing the wedding photos of a happy, beautiful young family. Much love to the family of Diogo and Andre.

Another one off to Chelsea.🤦‍♂️ Bye Joao. Thanks for Marseille and Palace. Try to at least have a shot on target before you demand more from their fans. #bhafc

Saw Iron Maiden at the London Stadium. They were brilliant. A blast through the soundtrack of my teenage years.

Happy 14th June to all those (except one) who celebrate.

A post-Ofsted inspection #parkrun for me this morning. A nice, gentle stress-buster. Thank you, volunteers.

I didn't want to push hard at #parkrun this morning. I just wanted to plod. So that's what I did. Loved it.


Today is the first time seven batters have scored 30+ in the same ODI innings 🤯

Steady effort from England. #ENGvWI #400 🏏

When De Zerbi and Groß left, and we appointed a manager I'd never heard of, I would have very happily taken 8th place. I've had my doubts along the way, but 61 points with a young squad and multiple injuries is an impressive return. Up The Albion! #bhafc

What an entertaining game of football last night. Terrific fight from the Albion. Gruda is going to be great to watch next season. Salah's miss..... #bhafc

Impossible to overstate the damage done to the education of our children by SATs. Year Six used to be the crowning glory of primary education. Now it's just an incessant 'how to pass a test' workshop. The results provide nothing that teachers don't already know.

Can't fault the ref's effort levels here. He's worked his socks off to make sure Newcastle get something out of this. #bhafc

Main takeaway from this morning's #parkrun was that I loved it.

First run in three weeks at Eastbourne #parkrun. Plodded round in the sunshine and loved it. Now to see if the Albion can ruin the day. #bhafc

Would you allow me to steal a line from Edmund Blackadder? Albion's tempo today was slower than 'an asthmatic ant carrying heavy shopping.' #bhafc

Watched Threads for the first time since I was horrified by it when we saw it 40 years ago in Mr Booth's English class. Still horrified!

Proud Dad day watching eldest son run his first marathon. The Southampton weather was glorious but too hot for running. Congratulations to all who gritted their teeth and got it done, especially Joe!

Ah well, not to be. Respect to every player who stepped up to take a penalty. Lovely touch from Murillo to shake hands with every Brighton player before going to celebrate with the Forest fans. Class. #bhafc

Beautiful weather, my fastest time since hernia surgery, and I saw an old primary school friend for the first time in 40 years. Cracking morning! #parkrun

A wintery feel at the start of Eastbourne #parkrun. Glorious Spring sunshine at the end. Cracking start to the weekend. Thank you volunteers!

I'm confused. It's Fulham. We never beat Fulham. Love it!! #bhafc

200th time running my home #parkrun course (220 overall). Huge thank you to everyone who makes Eastbourne parkrun happen. It has made a massive positive impact for me, physically and mentally. I'm very grateful for it.

USA Under Soviet Authority

That was a proper full-bloodied game between two sides determined to win and to entertain. No time-wasting, no nonsense. Loved it. #bhafc

What a win! Bournemouth were excellent. Well done boys!! #bhafc

A bit further down the south coast for today's #parkrun

It should be shocking that the US President is the puppet of the dictator trying to re-establish the Soviet Union. It should be simply unbelievable. But this is Trump. He is unhinged. He is dangerous.

Finished in position 222 at #parkrun. Richie Benaud would have approved.

Loved #parkrun this morning. Didn't think about time, just enjoyed the scenery and being on the move. Great start to the day.

Well that was a pretty decent start to half-term! Superb from The Albion. #bhafc

Come on!! Brilliant response to last week's humiliation. Well played boys! #bhafc

I gave England precisely no chance of winning. So very happy to be wrong. What a brilliant finish! #ENGvFRA #6Nations
