Here to talk #TheArchers, hiking, Digital Humanities, Linguistics if I'm feeling brave, and maybe show off some photography. Late diagnosed ADHD, so I should probably be doing something else right now...

So, after last night and tonight's I have many thoughts/opinions. Let's just say I'm glad Ciara was found because Emmurr was all set to abandon the search as soon as she saw George.

But, as for whodunnit, my money is on Esme. Hear me out...

2025 started on a high with lots of hikes, and me veing at my fittest for years. And then I broke my leg. Here's to 2026 and hopefully getting back to that level of fitness so I can tackle new adventures, hopefully without injury!!

Happy New Year everyone!

Genuinely furious with George for pulling that stunt with his dog. That sort of thing can get a dog confiscated or worse, put down through no fault of their own. But of course he only thinks of getting one over on his perceived enemies. Idiot.

As awful as that interaction between Fallon and George was (and it was pretty awful), it wasn't as bad as where I thought it was going to go, thankfully. But the women of Ambridge should steer clear of him. Misogynist's gonna misogynist.

Still genuinely baffled that the BBC #Civilisations series that has told the story of the fall of 4 civilisations through artefacts in the @britishmuseum.bsky.social has not made any mention of how the museum obtained those treasures.

Well, maybe not all that baffled.

Ambridge might have to wait until Christmas Eve for its inaugural Christmas Tractor run, but in my home town it seems we've already had ours

Labour might be shaking up the judicial system by getting rid of juries in most cases, but the cops on #BBCShetland seem to be taking the initiative further by not bothering with legal representation at the interview stage!

Watching #Civilisations on #BBC2 which starts each programme saying they are telling each story through the 'increible collections of artefacts at the British Museum', without ANY acknowledgement or mention of how the BM acquired those collections...

D'you know, to this day I still couldn't tell you which one is Barry, which one is Robin, and which one is... I dunno.. Dave? There's always a Dave.

Good lord, if the good people of Ambridge are so bowled over at the 'novel' idea of Father Christmas on a tractor, they've clearly not set foot outside of Borsetshire to visit any other rural village or town in SW England in December!#TheArchers

We all knew Kate would make it all about her. Taking a taxi all the way down, forgetting to pick up Brody and then charging it to Jakob's credit card was just the icing on the cake 🤣🤣🤣

Isn't #BBCStrictly on in Blackpool this w/end? My prediction: Justin and Jakob will accidentally end up on stage during the group intro dance, and they'll all meet Claudia, giving them a more authentic #BBCTraitors experience than those in the castle.

I have to question the reason (other than storyline) for them being in Blackpool. If your car was breaking down you wouldn't drive the extra 20 or so miles off the m6 at that point. Surely you'd go to Preston? Bigger town, more garages, etc?

#TheArchers

No disrespect meant to any Blackpool people, but I'm genuinely surprised that Justin of all people is enjoying his unplanned stay there. I've been there semi-voluntarily a few times while at uni and for a hen do and honestly wouldn't be heartbroken if I never went back...

BBC Two just played a trailer of christmas films with the caption "not feeling festive yet?"

No. Because it's frickin NOVEMBER!!

Let November be its own month!!

For a brief moment I almost felt sorry for Tom missing out on his holiday last minute. But then he tried manipulating his wife to stay behind in his place (who quite rightly told him to stuff it), so now I'm back to laughing out loud 😂

Did.... did George just do a GOOD thing?! Hard to tell at this stage.
