Had the Sierra Cosworth set. Always coveted the RS200

First essential pop music purchase of the year. Pre-orders started at 1 minute past midnight in case you missed it in amongst the hootenannies and fireworks/ early nights. HC6 never disappoint.

As is traditional, Janosz blesses you all at this time. Merry New Year.

Happy New Year’s Eve! Hootenanny!

Post a random picture or else everything will go bad in 2026

Top Adrian Chiles Columns of 2025: I’ve given up wild swimming. So why does my Volvo smell like mince? Should I tell the postman he has halitosis? My first wife wouldn’t let me wear shorts. I buried my father with my bare hands. It’s time we stopped talking about glamping. 1/3

This is also the year that we will see a noise table at Eurovision. Mark my words, people.

Imagine pouring your whole heart & skill into writing the most beautiful love song you can only to have it playing in Charnock Richard services

Everyone ready for a nice Christmassy sing-song?

Second anniversary of our Apple TV’s spectacular attempt to understand me asking for “Hercule Poirot’s Christmas”

Festive greetings!

Very well Gatissed once again #ghoststory

This is from a word scramble gameshow where the host of this show gave plenty of clues and the contestant still got the answer wrong.

Yer album of the year right here kids

The only Xmas ritual we can all agree on

What’s good about Walliams is we don’t have to separate the art from the man

It’s the feelgood Christmas story we all needed

"I'd like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn"

Blaze orange Allegro. Very pleasant.

Yes have some

This week on an all-new ALFsplaining! 🪦 Is ALF dead? 📞 Who is Willie calling in the middle of the night? 🚘 Why is ALF out for a drive? 🫎 What could be on that old woman's polaroid to make Willie pull that face? All these mysteries SOLVED at linktr.ee/ALFsplaining

"They're two distinct types of visionaries, it's like fire and ice, basically. I feel my role in the band is to be somewhere in the middle of that, kind of like lukewarm water."

RIP Rob & Michele, just awful news. Here's a perfectly crafted 4 minutes to show off the genius. youtu.be/ZNQpH_epiI0?...

Time for a quick round of "Funeral directors or black metal album?"

this is just a diagram of uk music genres

I challenge you to think of one thing you would less like to do

People complain about the January gym goers- well it’s December and I’d like to know what you’re all doing in our pubs.

For the same reason 3:10 to Yuma (the 2007 one) and Casino Royale (not the David Niven one). Both felt like they lasted a fortnight and I felt much less alive reaching the conclusion of each one

Re: middle age. I often see people saying, ‘Thank god we didn’t have the stupid stuff of our youth out there documented in public.’ Instead we can have the stupid stuff of our middle age documented out there in public.

Following our mention in the *Sunday Times* this weekend (a glowing review of @pantosplaining.bsky.social) - it's a groovy trip down memory lane for ALF this week! ALF eats a Peace Flower, meets Trevor, dresses like a hippy and is kool in the kaftan! Love and peace, man! linktr.ee/ALFsplaining

Mondas to see you, to see you... Mondas!

40 YEARS AGO TODAY: Commodore launch the Amiga and Fred Harris can't wait to get it going in the Micro Live studio.

“It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!”

Said this before but I like how Gordon Brown's Major Interventions are all "we must improve child literacy" and Blair's are more "we must harvest the sperm for the new Super-race"

Another fantastic listen, with all the deep Budgerigar Society knowledge you could ever need

We're watching the wholesale burning of every scrap of dignity afforded to trans people in the UK, their rights, their medical services, their employment, their place within society, their bodily functions. It is a disgrace, and a disgusting stain on the government and media of this country.

Just so sad and angry about what's happening in the UK thanks to a small group of hateful transphobes and a much larger group of people who should do better but let the bigots walk all over them.

As per fucking usual. Cops lie. Press lie. MPs lie. Families campaign in pain and anger. The truth comes out and no one, NO ONE gets punished no cops go to jail. Again and again and again it’s the same story but what is wrong with the justice system? Too many jury trials.
