So this is quickly becoming one of my favourite songs at the moment.

Hold The Light by Dominik Dudek ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ

I refuse to believe that Niyl and Adgy are so low in every poll that I see.

These two songs are so beautiful and powerful.

I have a feeling Iโ€™m in the minority when I say that I just donโ€™t understand Bobbi Arloโ€™s song ๐Ÿ˜…

Well Iโ€™ve just had a wonderful 10 days off, seeing people I know and love.

The progress Iโ€™ve made, it looks small, but to me itโ€™s big.

And one more thing, Iโ€™ve ended the year on a massive high. I am able to be openly gay for the first time.

Feels good to say it publicly.

For context, this is a photo taken at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmรถ Sweden, before the show, when the song SHUM (by Go_A) was playing. I danced. It was good. It is me when SHUM

Well Iโ€™ve made it to Benfleet, the nearest station to Canvey Island!

Time to swap the train for the bus, as it is the number 22 to the penultimate stop!

Iโ€™m gonna be at the ground before the players at this rate ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Come on Horsham!!!!

Getting the train to an away day is always special. Today is cold, wet and windy. Absolutely perfect for a non league game in Essex
