Foretoken — parkrun finish tokens on your phone Pete Johns (/piːt ʤɒnz/ - he/him/his): Human being; just like you.

Having messed around with scanning barcodes this week, I regret to inform you that I have been messing around with generating them as well.

This one's for all the #parkrun volunteers who've ever frantically sorted finish tokens for fear of running (ha!) out.

Last time for me I had super mild symptoms for one day and was completely fine the next day. Only thought to test because my son had it.

If Albanese wants to up the ante he needs to get out and about in a Steely Dan t-shirt.

Lobbyist is a real job. Lobbying is apparently a positive thing for governance.
I believe ALL lobbyists should be registered.
I believe ALL lobbying should be performed in a dedicated governmental area AND recorded both audio-visually and in writing.

Well, it’s been a journey but I finally finished the Wolf Hall trilogy. I have a lot of thoughts which will take some time to coalesce. Easily in my top ten all time favourite reads. Staggeringly good. Now I have to mourn that it’s over.

The last half a dozen games of the year Andy McGrath stepped up, if he can keep that consistent through 2026, would be fab.

The final scene from Brazil. Sam Lowry is in the far distance in an enormous silo, strapped to a chair where he’s been tortured.

Historic club ‘absolutely shattered’ as VFL licence stripped The 143-year-old icon is ‘done and dusted’ after a decision was handed down by the AFL.

'The Bullants had asked the AFL for $270,000 to clear their debts and start afresh next year', but the AFL computer said 'No'.

Somehow, they found $2 million for Snoop Dogg but.

Support My 496 km Ride to Fight Kids' Cancer! Pete Johns is riding in the Great Cycle Challenge. Please sponsor Pete now to end childhood cancer and save little lives. View Pete's fundraising page!

It's day four of the Great Cycle Challenge 2025 and I've logged my fourth ride. I have also logged my first swoop on magpiealert.com . Blood, sweat but no tears (or beers). That's got to be worth a dollar or two, right?

Thank you for your support.

The first ten minutes of that movie are excruciating. The rest is merely awful.

It’s exactly like Y2K, with the minor exception that Y2K was a real thing. Anyway, surely the rapture will be good for housing affordability won’t it?
