A cardamom knot, crumble danish and an Empire biscuit in a box with a scrunched up bit of kitchen roll used to mop up lemon curd.

Back from Glasgow and I'm now the size of a house thanks to all the great vegan food from *deep breath* Green Goose, Mono, Stereo, TheDorkyFrench, Honeytrap and A.Pastry (pictured, minus a lemon curd and cream danish which made me look like a Minion having a shave).

Same building from inside looking out of the main window. The ceiling undulates, matching the peaks on the roof outside. Eleven old cars are visible next to the wall, some of them on plinths attached on the wall above the others, stretching towards the window

Dusk, a footbridge stretches over a river on the left. To its right is an armadillo-shaped building illuminated in pink, with a UFO-shaped building glowing green from the inside just behind.

Inside of a concert hall with twelve musicians in blue boiler suits and instruments, one of whom is ACTUAL DAVID BYRNE, in front of three t-shirt designs, the most visible of which reads "With a body like this who needs hair"

Glasgow is just the best place to come for a gig, whatever the venue.

Generally involves 4-6 fingers across both hands and a weirdly long thumbnail. For around a 40% success rate.

White Bluetooth earphones. An R to the left of one is coloured in in pencil, and an L to the right of the other too. Does the R mean that the earphone to the right of it is the one for the right ear, and same with the left? Does it fuck.

I've had these for four years and still cannot grasp every bad design decision here

(colouring in the L and R with pencil has not helped one bit)

Good summary. Subbing Hannibal was absolutely baffling.

At least there's been... something happening in the last few games. I have no idea what I'll make of this season by the end of it.

Scored 3, had two ruled out and still lost... surely that hasn't happened before?

On my most optimistic days, I wonder. What if giving him a full season to learn how to get points in the PL works in the long run?

Then we're all set for avoiding PL relegation in 2027/8...

... although the optimism doesn't extend to the quality of the football team improving.

This image of an Amazon van abandoned in the Thames Estuary faintly evokes an impressionist painting. I am so moved.
