Through all seven of the stages of grief by day 2 of the 3rd Test. Maybe a new record. #ashes

Every motorway service station should have a 5-a-side football pitch. The score should be continuous throughout the day with travellers swapping in and out via infinite subs.

Cricket is, by far, the best spectator sport. It's basically just a beer garden with sport happening somewhere in the background. Watch, don't watch, have a stroll around, eat, talk, it doesn't matter. A brilliant day out.

I see a former footballer of negligible talent, shit manager, serial violent offender, would-be football shock-jock has laid into England's Euro win. The best response to his latest verbal bowel movement is to not name him, not quote him, just ignore him, as this is his line of business these days.

The contrast between tears in the Palace crowd and the tedious histrionics from Pep. Can’t buy class etc.

Thinking again about when we used the Football Manager editor to allow players to get 17th Century illnesses and injuries. Glen Johnson caught the plague.

Had lunch at the Clink in Brixton prison today - superb food, lovely dining area, and great service, all done by the inmates, who get great training which helps them in the labour market upon release.

The five stages of wedding grief

I take off my blindfold. Before me is a gory tableau of death and destruction, bodies strewn across the landscape. The piñata is unscathed.

Watch out everyone. I’m on Blue Sky! For those interested in UK policing, the next week is going to be very interesting…

An absolute classic - and a culture war theatre of battle well worth investing in. Wonder where today’s Tabbouleh salad places me on the spectrum

Introduce yourself with four footballers.

Guys over 40, but especially guys over 50.

Get a prostate test done. 10,000 men are dying in the UK every year from something preventable.

Ask your GP for a test or buy a cheap PSA test online.

Please, there is zero fucking point in dying because you can't be bothered to do a simple test.

Introduce yourself with four video games

Me popping back to Twitter to see if it's improved....

Imagine sitting down for a drink or a meal with people whose company you enjoyed & being told by management that half of the table would be now occupied by people who just wanted to shout ‘C**t’ at you. The exodus has absolutely nothing to do with ‘opinions’. Media reports must reflect this more.

If you're new here I have compiled lists of people in various fields that might make it easier to find people you want to follow
