Wow, waking up and seeing that I reached my first 1k packmates feels really good, especially a #werewolfwednesday! To celebrate, I updated my profile pic and decided to host a little #artshare.

Dear spurs fans,
Is 5-0 up at half time enough?
Regards,
A spurs fan.

Podcasts should have their own websites and not let the first search results for them be apple/spotify/patreon pages. If there's a lesson we should have all earned by now it's that becomming platfom dependent is a huge mistake. Give your audience a better place to check in than a discord server.

My wife just told me she got bored of filling out the ADHD diagnosis questionnaire she had to do before she got (rightly) diagnosed.

Depressingly I asked the kids if they knew what an anvil was and referenced wily coyote. None of them got it. Sad times for a 40 something yr old.

Chalk board with "it's hot" "relative" and "horseshoe" written as headings.

Also did a tally during an open day at the farm a few years ago. "Bet it's hot in there!" "My uncle was a blacksmith" and "do you still shoe horses?" earned a chalk mark.

Excellent! I just did a talk at my youngest daughter's school. 7-8 yr olds. Amongst a vast majority of very engaged and interesting questions was the routine "do you make swords?" "Is it like Minecraft?"

Excellent! Thank you. I appreciate there's not a huge amount there. I'm keen to do more though.

I've also realised that I actually really enjoy writing and tell myself that I should do more. I would really appreciate feedback and comments on any of the posts, positive or negative (as long as they're constructive!!)

Blog | Tom Fell Blacksmith A collection of thoughts and musings about all things blacksmithing and the creative process.

Hello to all my new bluesky friends. Having developed a very successful e-commerce website, I often overlook that I also write a blog. You can read my thoughts on self employment, creativity and blacksmithing here: www.tomfell.com/blog

Thanks for adding me to this! My first time. I was confused as to why I suddenly had so many leather workers follow me!

Beautiful! Nice work.

Strong CBA vibes.

Much more like it!

Ha! Amazing! Far too elegant to qualify though.

Just wanted to follow up on this to say that I never had any doubts about the result and I think we're probably going to win everything.

Ben Davies deserves to go down as an absolute Spurs legend. Changed systems, managers and positions and rarely let us down. He’s deserving of his flowers in the Spurs PL era more than many good players who flamed out after a decent season or two.

I'm not sure I understand football anymore.

Dr Tottenham

Agreed. There's a whopping chasm between Dr Tottenham and what we're actually capable of. I will happily tell myself that the pressure is off as it's away, we're not expected to win, and it would hurt the other lot if we lost. Just hope they're gentle with us (as is often my feeling in these games!)

I'm spurs, btw. I just reread my post and realised that was slightly vague.

Not sure about the score or result. Kovacic is out, as is our defence. We're so unreliable and inconsistent so it depends what spurs show up. I'm not sure I'm brave enough to watch it.

Oops, Darren Anderton is out injured again
