Hope you’re all enjoying your #cans and watching TOTP or whatever. I’m watching K Pop Demon Hunters with hyperactive granddaughter

Julie just said I looked like a French fisherman and it’s the biggest compliment she’s ever paid me.

There’s too many things I’d change so I’ll stick to off field matters

Retain the ban on smoking but allow pipes.
Stop serving alcohol and pulled nachos, just sell meat and taty pies & beef tea.
Bring back standing.

Streakers
Not sure who they asked, but apparently ditching VAR wasn’t in the top 5 changes these fans would make…

I’ve hated how the dim the big light is in our bedroom since we moved to this house six years ago.
This week I had a brainwave and put a brighter bulb in it.

You can tell the veg is organic because I bought it at the market off someone ruddy faced with terrible hair, and the spuds have scabs on them

My grandad Terry Carroll was part of the BEF, got cut off at Dunkirk, was sheltered by a French farmer, made his way home via Cherbourg, then went back after D Day to do his bit again, injured by shrapnel. Thought of him and his mates during the minutes silence at VP yesterday.

We were shit today and deserved to lose, but so tired of pathetic refereeing. This guy basically emasculated himself in front of 20k people letting Burton players take the absolute piss out of him with their shithousing.

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!

Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

Whilst mindful of @bsrg1.bsky.social recent post about vinyl bores, having bought a few singles last week I’m now having a night of obscure 21st century indie 7”. And yes, including our own single, what of it?
