What a day in Aylsham can do to you…

Ban Social Media for the over-60’s.

Since a handful of hate filled people protested outside RNLI HQ yesterday because they're angry that crews don't discriminate in their rescues and work to save all lives at sea you might want to show your support with a one off or regular donation. rnli.org/pages/ig/new...

“Ooooohhh flimsy steve”

Quite excited about this being announced. Like being a grown-up sound designer.

Have to say, whoever decided to make the character of Rocky be a boxer rather than a civil engineer definitely made the right decision. The ending where he wins a televised boxing match wouldn't have made as much sense otherwise. Good job by all involved 👏

Signs!

My daughter just got REALLY excited about the notion of the biathlon. Until she learned they’re not shooting at each other. To be fair, she has a point. That would be pretty amazing.

Added Yakety Sax to that video from Minneapolis

Too late.

Watched the first half of Spurs and decided not to bother with the second. Any Spurs fans want to pay me not to watch their games?

meanwhile, ICE is still out in force terrorizing the children of Minnesota - just got this from my kid's school

Not sure if I ever shared the scale model Transit van on here. So I’ll do a bit. It’s basically very loosely based on the types of knackered vans me and mates had and used in the 80s and 90s to cart band gear about in. This is 1/24th scale.

Along come Nodge! #NCFC

The EUVL business is a bit mad.

Sakamoto-san.

Important thread - and excellent analysis of current state of US.

This marvellous book from @joebankswriter.bsky.social arrived (thanks Joe); lovely to see a few of my photos in print. The depth of stuff in it is fascinating.

Nothing could better sum up where we are as a culture

Devastating.

Amazon have emailed with a frankly astonishing revelation.

Yes, I remember Adlestrop - the name

I suspect “grand dramaturge brittanique” might be his preferred epitaph.

Perfect Tom Stoppard story from DTel obituary: His response to a letter from Harold Pinter canvassing support for a proposal to have the Comedy Theatre in London rechristened the Pinter Theatre, “Have you thought, instead, of changing your name to Harold Comedy?”

Was having a tiring, dull, irritating time; this has made me smile.

So, er, Jeremy Corbyn for DG? That’d be funny.

It was an immense pleasure and privilege (not to mention hard work, in the best way) to help make @annacalvi.bsky.social show at Earth Hackney.

Moderately certain it’s this. Bought in Norwich, I hope from somewhere interesting but probably Our Price or Menzies.

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back! Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary. Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest! #MundaneHalloween

I hear the Epstein Ballroom will be illuminated solely by gaslighting.

Pretty scary how apt the Declaration Of Independence is …

Trump is just buddies with whoever he last spoke to.

Gorgeous photo.

🌿 We're thrilled that The Garden of Cosmic Speculation in Dumfries has become a designated landscape, following assessment by Historic Environment Scotland and support from C20. Developed gradually between 1988-2012 by Charles & Maggie Jencks, the garden is a work of outstanding artistic importance.

I can’t hear myself.

In honour of spooky month, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand. “English has sixteen tenses"

Woke up a bit grumpy. Took dog for walk. Not grumpy now. #Wharfedale
