Thank you The Observer: just the world’s richest man calling for the overthrow of the democratically elected UK government. Musk actually said ‘you don’t have time to wait 4 years until your next election.’

All apologies for dragging his shit on here but it seems worthy of notice that the US President is gloating about unleashing the military on his own people

Just went to look at something on Google maps and saw this. Utter fucking lunacy because of that fucking dog fucking maniac in the Whitehouse…

Wee reminder this Father’s Day of this timely number - out July 17th.

While Trump enjoys his dictator parade, I’m reminded of a satirical novel I wrote five years ago…

As I was posting about my 12th book, it occurred to me it's exactly 20 YEARS TO THE MONTH since I delivered the manuscript of my first, fully expecting it to be returned marked 'TRY AGAIN.' As it turned out none other than Robbie Robertson said 'was that guy in the room?' High cotton my friends...

WE RIDE AGAIN.

Incredibly enough the tour for new novel begins on THE 12TH OF JULY in my beloved hometown of Irvine. Obviously I understand a fair few Ayrshiremen might be otherwise employed that day. More chairs to come, but I can reveal the lovely Chris MCQueer will be chairing Glasgow on 14th

I am experiencing something @alanparks.bsky.social will never know: sitting in an airport lounge NOT drinking alcohol

Tremendous show in Birmingham tonight by The Loft, almost exactly 40 years to the month since I last saw them at Splash One in Glasgow. They’ve fulfilled one of the essentials for a successful band reformation: ALL STILL THIN

Tough to believe Google did this. Because of that senile buffoon.
