Some of you know this already, but I see no reason to keep it a secret. My oncologist told me on Friday that they had done all they can, the cancer is still growing, and that I have months, maybe weeks, left to live. I have no idea what's to come, but I'll be on here as long as I can.

Just had a blocked catheter. Cleared with a bladder wash. Hope it stays clear for a while.

Sausage butties for tea. Perfect for weather like this. What are you having?

A tree's been blown onto the line shopping trams from getting to Bury. Curse you, Claudia.

Morning everyone. I had a really good sleep last night with excellent dreams. It's given me a crick in the neck this morning, but yay for good dreams.

Goodnight, young warriors. Keep your hand on your ha'penny.

Happy days
I never made it past mid-table in the #sausageleague because you threw in curveballs including fishcakes and prawn crackers. Outrageous.
I'll announce it properly once I'm up, but there are already some sausageers punting their #SausageLeague predictions, so I'll just mention quickly that this week there's also a FISHCAKE BONUS. You should predict how many fishcakes in addition to your sausage forecast for a chance at a fishy bonus.

Nail on the head
I'm just reflecting on what a beautiful thing this is. To die with the knowledge of how loved you are, connected to so many people whose lives have touched yours and each others, friends who would never have met.

Michael, you are the best. I love you.

I will always count the pies in chip shops.

This is incredible. An absolutely exquisite thing. I'm overwhelmed.
And it happened! 🥳

I managed to get a printed copy of the entire fantasy trilogy I've been working on with @vspearson85.bsky.social @lisashambrook.bsky.social and @wombat37.bsky.social, into Wombie's hands, cuz there's a chance he's not going to see the publication of it at the end of December. 💔💜
Today this comes to fruition and I'm excited. 😀 I'll reveal more when it happens.
November 13, 2025 at 6:14 PM
I had to get that out there. Back to taking about food and football. 😂

I've had a good life, you know. It's all been rather lovely. We're all scared of the day we'll die, but life is intrinsically about death. You just have to accept its inevitability. Don't be sad, young warriors, smile and remember the good times we've had together. 1/2

I know it makes no sense, but I have a large amount of guilt over what my approaching death is putting the family through.

Still, there's nothing else to do but to get on with the day.

Disappointing amount of blood in the overnight urine bag today. 🙁😕

I've just realised, now's the time to enjoy all my favourite foods without criticism - red Leicester mini cheddars, primula, maltesers, cheese footballs, cheesy gravy chips FTW!
