Don't do many #association podcasts but just started Czar of Hearts about that Romanov loon. Top clips from a shareholder meeting in ep1. 'Chris Robinson was abused' 'Yafuckin' pile ay shite!'

Decent run that.
Robert Duvall's decade 1969-79: True Grit, M*A*S*H, THX 1138, The Godfather I and II, The Eagle Has Landed, Network, Body Snatchers and Apocalypse Now. That's how you do it. (I realise Eagle is no masterpiece but it's the first thing I saw him in and was my favourite film aged 10 so…)

Michael's posts are always great reading. Cracking, this.
📢 NEW BLOG POST

Over the course of a pint in an unfamiliar boozer, I think about the "proper jobs" I could've explored, what it means to be a bartender, and why it is so hard to leave.

If Not This, Then What?
A few weeks of being asked if I was ‘getting a proper job’ prompts me to head to the pub and think about paths not taken and the lot of the bartender.

As a big Slovenia guy, very happy with the mixed ski jump there. Always been a favourite sporting discipline of mine.

Boring isn't it, sitting in the County Ground away seats with your life. Not for me, I like it.

Your government is murdering innocent people. At least boo the national anthem Denver, you fucking cowards.

Met up with a mate this avvy, she’s just split with her bloke. Now I’m no expert, but if I was planning on dumping a woman I reckon I’d do so while avoiding the phrase “look, you’re absolutely brilliant on paper”.

Anyway, Lisa’s single again.nAnd way out of YOUR league, sir! [points]
