Every time I tell someone that I can’t get my head around how heat pumps, they always tell me that it’s really simple as it’s a reverse fridge and then I have to pretend like I know how a fridge works.

Yesterday my daughter asked if the dog is a furry and I have to admit that it’s messed with my head a bit

Been reading the latest RUSI report on Ukraine and it’s proper grim. Full-on Mad Max/Cyberpunk crossover with a bit of WWI thrown in for good measure.

We’re off to see 4AM Kru tonight and genuinely unsure if we’ll be nicely anonymous in a sea of BBC6 Dads or a right pair of lemons who look like they’ve escaped from a care home.

Saw someone strutting through town today, ostentatiously swigging Perrier straight out of a litre bottle. Very aggressive act - white cider is appropriate on Briggate, NOT Perrier.

I am seeing a lot of yoot in Type-O Negative shirts at the mo. Was not expecting that lot to get a second wind.

If - like me - your musical life is basically an unending and largely unsuccessful quest to find something decently Blue Album-ish, then you could do a lot worse than these guys m.youtube.com/watch?v=FHvC...

In 1994, I won a compo where the prize was a trip to the D-Day beaches with a bunch of other Year 9s.

One of of the lads was a proper bellend. We were both mundo grunge but he spent the whole time having a pop at how I’d never heard of Blind Melon.

Been seeing a lot of AI-is-coming-for-your-therapist headlines so I want to tell you a story from back when I was a lovely primary care mental health worker with the NHS.

I reckon AI is about to give us a very intense crash course as to why it’s a good thing that artists are defined by their limitations.
