Sharing for some extra eyes - anybody able to help?
I need help!

Do I know anybody who has the skills to "animate" illustrations? And it goes without saying, I mean, without the use of EY AYE for the love of God.

A client I'm doing book illustrations for has started using ey aye to animate my covers & I badly need to put a stop to that LOL

It's my latest post on Substack! I talk about having dreams for the first time, why Newcastle United are getting too good to be loveable and Twitch streaming for the first time since Covid!

TNT Sports changing the title of their Juventus v Inter Milan highlights is brilliant. Huge fan of someone rereading that title and panicking.

The start of an important few weeks for #NUFC.

- Return of European football
- This team post-Isak
- The debut of Big Dick Nick
- The inevitable Bobby Robson love

I’ve written another blog post! This month I’ve covered becoming a father again, picking the wrong teams and a trip to see 5Live’s youngest broadcasting duo.

Hello to the Frankfurt scouting department.
He seems like a lovely lad but I’m ready for the Osula experiment to be over. Does nothing for me.

I don’t love the idea of Nicholas Jackson but I do think if everybody takes the fact Bayern wanted Woltemade as proof of quality, you’ve got to practice what you preach and do the same for Jackson.

If the difference is £5/10m between him and Wissa, I think the smart thing is to take Jackson.

My 3 year old son likes four songs at the moment. The two Adam Buxton songs from his new album, Brown Sugar by the Rolling Stones and The Duck Song by The Duck. He’s complex.

🇩🇪⚫️⚪️ Newcastle need goals. Badly. But since Nick Woltemade has never been prolific, is he really the man to replace Isak?

In a word, yes. He's technically excellent, creative, and a magnet for defenders. There's a reason the German's call him Wolte-Messi.

I’m way too impressionable. I read this and I’m so impressed it’s convincing me this window is somehow not that bad 😂 Cheers Kev!
After 3 years of chasing the young German centreback, Newcastle United #NUFC are about to sign Malick Thiaw (pronounced Mal-ick Tch-ow) for a reported fee of £35m including add-ons.

Why has Eddie Howe’s & the club's interest never waned? Let’s break down what the 24-year-old will bring to SJP 🧵🔽

All this talk of #NUFC signing Benjamin Sesko makes me nostalgic for the last time I thought a massive Slovenian forward was going to break through on Tyneside. Big Haris Vuckic!

Not another one! This entry covers my current Game of the Year, a much-loved YouTube channel going through some changes and a countdown to my life getting even more tiring!

I've even done a voiceover for this one so you don't have to tire your weary eyes.

Fine with this! Decent keeper, far better distribution that what we've got and if it's a loan-with-option, we're laughing. Get it done and that's one thing sorted until next year.
Newcastle United are working on a deal to sign Southampton goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale.

Newcastle have made an offer for an initial loan with an option to buy.

Last year was a McCartney binge and this one has been all about Wings. Can't really work out what it is about this song I love so much but it's getting some heavy repetition at home

Difficult to find the silver linings even as an optimist 😂 Go for a walk, enjoy the sunshine, do something else.

Really enjoying The Alters, something I wouldn’t have ordinarily picked up. The score is bleak in a great way, it does silly/serious in the right amounts and I appreciate any game that nails a gameplay loop like this. Game Pass isn’t perfect but this kind of addition makes it so much better.

My lad is running around the soft play while I’m sipping an iced coffee and reading through the most wonderful numbers and graphs. Sometimes Saturday mornings just click. Cheers Kev ☕️
Anthony Elanga has joined #NUFC in a £52m deal from Nottingham Forest.

Following long term interest, the acquisition ends the club’s 3️⃣ year search for a new first team right winger.

Why did Howe & co. opt for the 🇸🇪 international? Let’s dig in 🧵

Switched to Charlie XCX. Big fan of Neil Young but there are a lot of reading glasses in that front row. Droning “I don’t care what the government says” doesn’t hit as hard a few hours after Kneecap were on too.

Next up on ‘Albums that were in the family CD cupboard as a child’:

Breakfast in America (Supertramp) - Very evocative of being in my Dad’s car. Emotional, sounds like nothing else, for better or worse

Aja (Steely Dan) - Banger

Aqualung (Jethro Tull) - Good but no occasion will ever call for it

@robinallender.bsky.social Lake Street Drive were brought up on a recent pod and, with the release of the new season of Somebody Feed Phil on Netflix, you should absolutely hear the theme song they created for it. It’s a superb show to boot.
