A quiet day. Passenger planes are taking off from DXB. Been at the beach park with the kids, went to the new smash burger place near us, got Wolves v Liverpool on now. Thank you UAE for keeping us safe 🙏🏻 🇦🇪
If you carry hate and resentment and feel like even a single person “deserves” to have missiles over their head, you’ve gotta think about where that hate comes from and why so many supposedly “kind” people from a single spiteful country are so full of it. Be well. 🙏🏻
Due to my old life I’m in a lot of journalist contact books. Been asked to do talking head nonsense a few times. Tangible disappointment from them - esp the newspaper BlueSky loves - when I haven’t got some horror story. Clear they’re searching for horror narrative. It’s been eye opening🤷♂️
A legend was born tonight.
Grim, that. It’d currently mean Derby would qualify. And imagine that Derby side in the PL!

Supermarket was completely restocked today. Can’t say it was anything but a normal Thursday save for the kids doing school via Zoom. They’ve moved school Spring Break to start from Saturday. Very grateful to the UAE for keeping us safe.
“One sack hit me so big, it broke my rib”.
Fabulous. Bet he never went out dressed any other way.
It’s extraordinary having the reality of your eyes and ears so utterly at odds with what social media and the press is saying. And only the UK, of course, could reduce war to how a section of British people need to know their place. But of course.
Normal day again. Heard interceptions last night. Doesn’t phase me at all. Been out playing football. Everyone milling about as usual. Supermarkets restocked. Biggest news is that our local Denny’s is closing after many years (unconnected).
The exact sort of pettiness we love to see from the Everton Wadmin 🫡
Got missiles flying over my house but that game was worse.
Xhaka got fucked up by Tyler Adams at the weekend! Orange card foul.
Magnificent. Somebody on here was saying it’s his girlfriend who makes them.
Loud bang heard.
Was the boy playing football inside and knocking down this photo from the wall. Not during a war, lad.
It’s funny, my wife says I see football everywhere…but that does look like the Peacock 😂
Last night they projected onto the tree, too, which made an awesome peacock effect.
If you want to know how the British print news industry ends (which is, de facto, amazingly still what supports most newspaper websites) it's the distribution channels getting banjaxed. When you lose "TG Jones" etc even people who want a paper can't get one. That'll be the real start of the ending.
Birmingham have lost once at home in 40-odd games. Middlesbrough giving them a tonking here, though. Best side in the second tier for me.
Update: bought everything I need to make a cottage pie.
Yes, the water can end up on the ceiling too at first 😅
Bankes was a little bitch, acting on emotion. He knows he stank the place up.
I get this too, from a New Yorker who either does not learn or doesn’t care. It’s mental how much he’s given me access to over the years, and how easy it would be to cause the guy harm. Tracked him down once out of genuine concern, it went quiet for a few years…then started again.
Good to just get it done innit. Dunno if you’ve ever seen these Water Pik things but they work better than floss and I have to have the minimal of cleaning done now.
Seems to be news to some folk that moving to another country means you no longer pay UK tax on non-UK-earned income… should EFL teachers in Kenya or nurses in New Zealand also not enjoy consular services in case of emergency?
It’s always worse than the dentist itself 😭 Stupid buffer thing!
