Brooks Adrenalines are my go to general purpose running shoe, I’m on my fifth pair and several of the older pairs have over a thousand miles on, so they’re pretty durable!

It would have interviews with supporting characters like old man willow being shocked at how Tom went off the rails after being cruelly cut out of the films, and Tom being bitter about the other minor characters that got screen time over him. 😂

I always wanted there to be a gritty documentary called BOMBADIL that came out after the LOTR that detailed an increasingly desperate and sad Tom who was bitter at being cut out of the movie franchise.

That name was discussed, but Lizzy has a second cousin with that name and she decided that was weird 😂

A tabby kitten led on a cushion

Mochi the cat looking cute

We’ve welcomed an additional cat into our home, she was found abandoned in the ruins of the abbey, no chip, no one’s come forward to claim her, so we’ve given her a home. She’s very friendly and affectionate and settling in well. Say hi to Mochi. #proofofcat

Aid station even!

To stop the sloshing, fill the bag, turn it so the hose is at the top and suck all the air out until you get water. Stick it in the bag, and you’re good to go. Should stop it moving around and making noise! Got shown that trick at an off station once!

I worked on a site for a charity that also does stuff in Sweden, and on the Swedish language site we had to integrate with just such an app. It was an interesting experience, as at the time, most of the tech docs were only in Swedish 😂

I hear you on this one. Friend needs emergency help? I am the avatar of efficiency and getting shit done. I need to do an important task at home? Not happening without a great deal of stress. Every now and then I can harness god mode for personal gain, but it’s really tricky

OMG, I’m super jealous! Hope it’s good 😃

One of the most durable shirts I own is a 1993 reading festival long sleeve bootleg that I grabbed for a fiver on the way out. It’s survived better than a lot of official band merch that’s way younger 😂

What was really fun was when a new cat moved to the area, all the other cats would sit on the fence and watch the newcomer get yeeted across the garden by a large grumpy rabbit 😂

Very similar to the local cats with my pet rabbit growing up. Miffy was a BIG bunny and when let out to roam in the garden would regular kick cats across the garden if they messed with her. You’d see the same cats try again every six months or so 😂

If I’m lucky, and all goes well, in three weeks I’ll have completed my run from Liverpool to Leeds along the canal. I’m equal parts excited and nervous. It’s the longest event I’ve ever attempted. My training has not gone according to plan, but I’m very, very stubborn, so let’s see what happens.

Went through all my C64 boxes and it appears I no longer have the one with the mirrorsoft games in. If you need Gremlin, Ocean, Hewson, or Mastertronic game covers, I’ve got you sorted though!

Brimstone, Person of Interest, Lockwood and Co

Grew up near Greenham common, teacher showed us threads and then cheerily commented “but you don’t need to worry about this stuff, we’ll all be instantly killed” 😂

I’ve been climbing and bouldering for the best part of 20 years and I still cannot do this 😂

Large collection even 😂

I LOVE a good terrible film. I have a large Cole hoping them. One of my favourite films of all time is Killer Tongue, which is crap, but also amazing 😂

I salute your patience. I managed about 30 minutes before I sacked it off 😂

Any time! As soon as they started playing it, I was all RIGHTY, time for the real lyrics 😂

Just led a rousing chorus of the @unwoman.com version of Jolene at a western evening in Lanzarote. Everyone on our table agrees these are the best lyrics 😂

It’s come out well!

I swear by the apothecary white contrast paint, it was a bit of a game changer when I finally sussed it out.

“We will launch you into your future!”, “fling yourself into uni life at Warwick” the trebuchet marketing basically writes itself 😂

Stress toast 😂

This is something I feel @rjbarker.bsky.social would desire for his collection!

True!

In fairness, as a CEO, there’s a fair chance they were comped those tickets!
