Well. Thanks for that Forbes. I was wondering what to do with the spare millions I found in the pocket of my coat while I was doing the laundry.

Beginning to understand why the #NFL crowd were getting so moist about the perfectly ordinary tackle one of their boys made the other week

I can't speak for Zahawi of course, but if my moustache had gone all grey except for a neat little black bit under my nose I might consider dye, or even shaving the fucking thing off. Especially if I was considering joining a party so beloved of actual nazis.

Fucking hell. Another reason to despair about the IG generation. I love a good stout or porter, but can't stomach Guinness BECAUSE of the nitrogenation. And now other brewers are adding the bastard bubbles...

Always good to receive the ultimate accolade from my OH after I've cooked; "That was surprisingly nice."

'Surprising' is of course what I always aim for in the kitchen.

Fuck. Me. Sideways. Look at the price of these buggers. That's a lot of money for a clothes horse. Makes my 700 quid used smart trainer look like a steal.

The billionaire press barons must be having a right laugh…

Here we are distracted & arguing over asylum seekers (0.2% of the population)

Meanwhile, billionaires (just 0.0002% of the population) hoard more wealth than half the UK

Immigration isn’t draining us

Inequality is.

Damn fine showing by Scotland, and congrats for the win, but bloody hell Wales, could we at least play like we've met each other before kickoff? #SCOvWAL

Israel is saying it will boycott every country who recognises Palestine.

I suggest everyone boycotts countries committing Genocide.

Fucking yes. I've never been the male PA in this situation but I have (depressingly often) written off applicants who didn't interact with my female colleague at interview.
I'm a female CEO & ultimately the decision maker when hiring for high level management & executive positions in the company. I've hired more women for senior positions than men. The simple reason being because men keep ignoring me & talking to my male PA/notetaker in interviews.

Honestly don't think I've ever enjoyed a Lions tour less than this one. Absolutely devoid of passion and ideas. Voted for player of the tour the other day and was hard put to think of a single stand-out player. #Lions2025

Just arrived at the pub. If you look VERY carefully at Dog#1 you might be able to deduce the colour of Dog#2.

Not a single person died on Helsinki’s roads in the last year.

An impressive achievement which shows cities across the world that road traffic deaths are not inevitable.

Helsinki records zero traffic deaths for full year
Helsinki has completed 12 months without a single traffic fatality, a milestone credited to lower speed limits, safer infrastructure, and years of consistent planning, officials say.

The "well regulated Militia" will kick in any moment now I'm sure. Cos that's why there are so many fucking guns there after all.

My mate sent me an action shot from the weekend. Normally don't approve of photos of me, but I'm facing away, so I'll accept it this once.

Very odd #DunwichDynamo last night. Weird micro temperature zones oscillating between too hot and bloody freezing, meaning you'd be drenched in sweat and then chilled to the bone a minute later. Made it a bit of a challenge, but still fun nonetheless.
