Good luck 2912

Six nations more like six million nations how long has this been going on now

How long to go?

The new Eden is great! So glad it came back in a new form. Birmingham would be nothing without it.

Only really to the extent that everyone was before streaming, I just never got rid of them. And have bought a few things here and there on vinyl more recently

However, I just went to listen to something and the record is missing for some reason and the CD of it is scratched to shit, so I am *having* to use Spotify. You win, the twenty-first century

I’m so grateful that weird teenage me bought loads of cheap records of classical music from charity shops, which at the time were far cheaper than CDs

I have been sitting in the park in Warwick in a T-shirt reading. It feels later in Spring for sure.

Really enjoying it. Makes me want to go to Japan, it’s so beautiful where they are

Crisis over, I managed to get it to upload and it wasn’t that fast anyway in the end. But thanks for believing in me Scott.

A bit disconcerting that “something went wrong” on the Strava app at the end of today’s run — is it lost in the ether forever? You’ll just have to believe me when I say it felt fast.

We're adding another small set of OS One Inch Fifth Edition #maps from southern England (and a small part of Wales) to SABRE Maps today, this time three maps from 1938. What can you find on them? #MapMonday

Long may the parish peace persist

Good luck :)

Our neighbour used to do this constantly :(

We are a bit behind on US Drag Race season a million but just on the Snatch Game episode and props to me for remembering Sum Ting Wong’s character from years ago

fucking chicanery

Tbf I think they could be outwardly losing their shit a bit more obviously today

Pick which applies: are “Labour losing their shit” or are “Labour losing, they’re shit”

So I guess emotional blackmail isn’t going to work anymore

First book of 2026 finally finished - “Fire Island: A Queer History”. I picked it up purely by chance from a book swap shelf at a pub in Warwick just before Christmas. So glad I did!

Scruff: we have added Stories, to reignite fizzled conversations & catch people’s interest

Sniffies: we have added emoticons next to profiles to know someone’s position preference without having to click their profile

Grindr: if you wanna see who tapped you it’s $300 a week

Me by the bridge where I usually finish running

View off the bridge looking downstream along the River Leam

Today my once a week 5K running streak got to 26 weeks and I’m quite proud of that. And it was sunny.

It looks a bit nicer since its 2018-ish refurb

Well there is now some unpleasant looking fencing on the edge of each parking deck thankfully not visible in these photos

I’m sorry for not seeking consent for these photos x

Watch out for higher than expected government borrowing in July
