Had a week in the Amalfi Coast. It sure is pretty but it is eye-wateringly expensive and can be a logistical challenge to get anywhere. Food surprisingly mediocre. Box ticked.

The one thing I can stand in a restaurant is being served a tepidly cold plate of food. It’s unforgivable.

I paid Royal Mail £72.50 for mail redirection after moving. So far I've had 1 item redirected and 5 items delivered to the old address. What's the point? It is near to impossible to complain. Shambles. Service not fit for purpose.

Christ on a bike! iOS 26 is a visual mess isn’t it? If you don’t have to upgrade, DON’T. It’s like they got the iOS 5 team back together for one last hurrah. Awful? Make it stop, Apple! #apple #ios26 #iphone17

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before.

Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

Jon Dahl Tomasson says Isak is very professional. Could have fooled me. 6 year contract at Liverpool. How ironic.

Bought a small soundbar for the TV. Why-the-f*cking-hell did I not have one of these before now!? #sonos

I’m finding out that Gumtree -ers are the weirdest fuckers in history. You can’t give perfectly good stuff away.

“Is this still available?”
“Yes”
*NOTHING!*

Landfill it is! Such a shame.

I got two questions in a row on @onlyconnectquiz.bsky.social tonight. Very proud of myself.

Of late I’ve been totally fed up of the constant misery and dull, pig-thick arseholes on TV. So in recent evenings I’ve turned (or tuned) to the radio instead and I’m really enjoying it. BBC Radio 3 Unwind is especially lovely.

There’s a special place in hell for people who allow their hotel room door to slam closed.

Just watched the Man Utd v Villa game. I see nothing what-so-ever that is controversial

I never asked for these notifications, I can’t turn them off. You’re also sending them to people under that legal ages for gambling. Your business model is disgraceful. App subscription cancelled and deleted. @flashscore.com @gamblingcommission.bsky.social

Now Premier League clubs will now have to increase their spend in disinfectant.
Sunderland have been promoted to the Premier League after coming from behind to beat Sheffield United in the Championship play-off final.

I’m working today, so alas I will miss the Football Association Challenge Cup Final Tie.

Unlikely but would be nice to see Palace win something.

I am just loving BBC Radio 3 Unwind. First time I've heard them do the Sleeping Forecast. just lovely.

Paddy O'Connell introduces “Labia MP Nadia Whittome” on Newsnight, mispronouncing “Whittome” and correcting himself, but not correcting “Labia”. Glorious.

Here are Manchester United fans at an away game. The hardcore of them, the ones that stay until then end. Come what may. I wouldn’t mind, the weather was actually fair.

Thinking of a trip to Mexico City later this year but want somewhere else to combine the trip with - any suggestions? Max 2-3hr flight from Mexico City preferable.

Seeing lots of backlash to Newcastle’s plans for a cup celebrations and rightly so! A ticketed event on the Town Moor that will exclude thousands. What’s wrong with an old fashioned bus parade for every fan!? You’ve got this wrong @newcastleunited.com Please cover this @georgecaulkin.bsky.social

Oof blocked by someone who’s followed me for years (prior to here on the nasty place) because I questioned a daft thing he wrote. Hay-ho.
