5 star tv. You’re one of the best talking heads in the business.
Mick, my brother said it’s hard once you get near the summit. Hiking for eight hours on summit day. Then sleep for a few hours and hike for fourteen hours through the night. With the Sherpas people do it in six days. But without the Sherpas it can be done in three.
Yes my brother said it was very hard! He has massive blisters on his feet. He did a lot of hill walking for the last few months to prepare, like Slieve na mBan and others. He climbed Ben Nevis last year. Did your brother go with a Sherpa group? It’s a funny coincidence they both went isn’t it?!
My brother is only back from climbing #Kilimanjaro 🤗
Hello—here’s the official trailer for UNDERLAND, based on my book of the same name, dir. by Rob Petit, with a haunting, glittering score by @hannahpeel.bsky.social, & the ‘Storyteller’ voiced by Sandra Hüller (Anatomy of a Fall, The Zone of Interest). Hope you like it.
In UK/Irish cinemas 27 March.
2 hours 22 minutes and counting until I tell my family ‘I’m friends with yer man with the mad socks on the telly’ and No, they will Not believe me.
Yes, every time. And rejected every time mostly 😂
Kristi Noem testified under oath yesterday that detainees receive medical attention within 12 hours. Yet another shameless lie.
On a good day, Farage looks like a Spitting Image caricature.
An awkward prize would suit me. 🏆
Hello—Is a River Alive? is published in paperback in the UK today.

I’m tuning in for the colourful ties and snazzy socks 🧦
I love Daffodils. A sign that Spring is here and brighter days are coming. My poem, Daffodil on Waking, is up on The Galway Review along with four other poems.

Tell your Italian friend that he should be in a remake of The Italian Job.
I thought he was a Cockney geezer!
