This is a big day for me with @girlsgonecanon.bsky.social - the first episode I’ve listened to whilst it’s current. Yes, I have *finally* caught up.

Great day out today. On a stag do for a friend who is 49 and ready for their second marriage. Lots of laughter, plenty of booze, and enough time to get home for a sensible bedtime 👍

Happy Hardcore History Day people! Episode 2 of the Alexander the Great series has just dropped - and as usual with the big series, that gives me a great excuse to go back and relisten to Ep 1 again 😃

I’ve just run a mixed ability interval training session for the run club. Having to alert people a field apart, and without an alarm, I adopted my best Roy Kent impression…

Tim Stanley, in what now appears to be a weekly slot on one or other BBC flagship politics programme, reels off a huge amount of absolute, provable nonsense about immigration.
And he does so completely unchallenged. Enough now. ~AA

Hi @girlsgonecanon.bsky.social , I’ve just got to the final Arya episode where you read out my podcast review (thank you!). For those keeping score I think I’ve got through 84 main episodes (plus various bonus eps) in 7 months. At this rate I should have caught up by Christmas 😆

The Country Land and Business Association says the new £1m cap on agricultural inheritance tax relief will "harm 70,000 farms". That's 1/3 of all farms.
What does the actual data show? Less than 500 farms/year will be pay more tax as a result of this change every year. Possibly as few as 100.

So our issue with Bluesky is that videos are only 60 seconds long. But apparently you can all see this video taking the piss out of Elon Musk perfectly well?

Ran the Alton Towers half marathon time today in 1hr 48mins - very happy with that as I want expecting sub 1.55. Then I got to go on all the rides. I think that’s a double win 😃
On a related note, if anyone in the Alton area finds a knackered groin, I think I left it behind on the course 😬😆
