Proper Badger

Shakespeare was on the money 400 years ago and, sadly, still is now.

2016 vs 2026

Today thanks to @lateralcast I learned that the term ‘freelancers’ originates from a term describing mercenaries for hire, ‘free lances’. Now I’m not saying that we should now carry lances to
ensure we are paid on time, but…

Semi regular reminder that I have this app…

Cp this is so weird as I thought of you reading that @girlonthenet.bsky.social blog!!!

He made you watch Buckaroo Banzai…

EMERGENCY SMERSHPOD

My brother sent a photo of my dad as a kid to a restorer. It has come up beautifully besides one minor detail. A clue: my dad was from Dublin…

I don’t bob in here much, but absolutely devastated by Michael’s passing. A force for good. Rest well big fella. #GNUWombie

Promo for a couple of things on this coming festive period…

I have worked with him, albeit some 20 years ago. I have…opinions.

Oh this is…ugh. I hope you know the impact you have had on a lot of people before you hop the twig, dear sir.

Collar and cuffs…

Whenever I think about shaving my beard off this photo serves as a reminder of the grim consequences.

I forget

I need to remember I have this. Why is it so…forgettable?

Old man face

I keep forgetting I have this!

Ten years and a lot more grey later…

Was it fast? I was overtaken by an asthmatic snail using a zimmerframe. Was it a long distance? I could almost throw further. Did I walk some of it? Shut up.

But my first ever ever ever venture of doing an outdoor ‘run’. Couch to 5k so a fair amount of walking but…still.

Either my app had a funny five minutes or Team GB need to make me an offer…

Right, you fucks, if you live in the UK sign this. If you don’t live in the UK share it as some of your followers might and they should sign this.

will always love @taskmaster.tv but…and I know this isn’t that deep, but not showing the new cast as they want to reveal at the premiere in America is deeply cynical.

Without downloading any new pics, what’s your energy going into 2025?

@shewolfmanc.bsky.social thank you so much for my lovely presents!

Not as yet young man

A very thoughtful ‘Exit, perused by a bear’ mug (filled with Chocolate coins!) and a Raymond Briggs’ Father Christmas bauble from my #Twanta2024

As much as doing this show is exhausting, it’s joyous and uplifting and the realisation that in less than a week it’ll be done and I’ll be back to the regular, non actor life, is hitting me hard tonight.

Me, calm and at peace, choosing not to think about doing 20 shows in 7 days starting on Wednesday…
