I might be away for Xmas. Should I embarrass myself by turning up with a comic of TV listings?

And honestly, we didn't pay them to do so, but we've just discovered that Gumshoe Books has Jon Atli Jonasson's Broken as one of their top books for 2025 on their site! 😍 So grateful!

A gentle reminder if you've received an invoice from a Freelancer/Self employed person which is due before Christmas.

Be a love, and pay it today.

This is a disaster. They're the only ones I eat.
Quality Street seem to be skimping on the strawberry and orange creams this year.

I've snaffled almost all of them from the office tin, and only had about four if each!

My first free day for ages.
I'm going to have a saltfish pattie, then take a nuisance, outsized duvet to the tip.

It'll be worth ordering.
Lots of events planned for next year about my book 'These Isles: A People's History of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales', due out Feb 26th. Available for preorder.

You really shouldn’t be allowed to post headlines like this without at least mentioning that they’re not fresh.

No sweetie. I don't want to see your nipples while you're at the gym.

I had a bowl of soup in John Lewis in Cambridge yesterday, with the merest slivers of sourdough.
I think it was leek and potato, I'm not sure. Certainly it lacked seasoning.
Such a weird cafe. A hive of activity but the service is so...so..slow.
Ham soup never looks very bonny … but the small of the ham hock is winding around my heart!

Just the ticket for a chilly midweek lunch

President Zelenskyy: "Putin publicly lied claiming that Russian forces had already taken the city. So, I went to Kupiansk myself to show the world, Putin is lying.

We must keep exposing every single Russian falsehood because truth restores justice."

I'm fed up of Bluesky asking me if I'm writing in English every time I post.

It's not the worst word you can start with?
A better question is whether it should be followed, in the ancient way, by a comma.
Jane Austen used 'however' at the beginning of a sentence, and so can you.

I, too, would like to apologise to Boris Johnson for calling him a fat, incompetent, traitorous murdering Russian asset piece of shit.

I understand he has lost some weight.

I'm happy to correct the record.
