Bit of this, bit of that. Security Architect. Always trying, often failing, to be a better person. Tech, InfoSec, football (MCFC), beer, two kids. Priorities not necessarily in that order.

Heard Norwich v Bristol City referred to as the β€œCoastal Derby” yesterday on the wireless.

This is getting out of hand.

Match bus 11 en route to the Etihad. Not bothered about the game, just enjoying a few hours away from the hound.

Special offer of five cans of Carling for SIXTEEN POUNDS AND TWENTY FIVE PENCE. Hells teeth…

If that’s the only regret you come away from Twitter with, you’re doing OK.

I’ve been saying to my eldest since preseason that Reijnders is absolute class. Wish I’d put it on here so I had documentary evidence.

On a cruise. The WiFi seems to block *most* social media unless you pay for premium. But not all, apparently 😎

It was when I saw this, especially the level 40 rewards that I realised it was officially β€œgame over” season for FC25. Roll on FC26 πŸ™ŒπŸΌ We go again.

Surely you calorie count at home so that you CAN do what you want on holiday. If anybody tried to get me to call one ice cream a day a β€œtreat” on holiday they’d need it surgically removing shortly after.

That and β€œWhat a fucking horrible perverted wanker” but that’s a lesser known Simpsons quote.

There’s a scene in The Simpsons where Chief Wiggum says β€œNo, no, dig UP, stupid” when they are trying to get out of a hole and that’s all I hear in my head when I see posts/articles/interviews about Greg(ggg) Wallace.

Splashed out on a Shark fan at the end of the last mini-heatwave. Looking forward to proving to Mrs S it was a good buy for the next three days, at which point it will go back in to storage.

If you're wondering what happened with Grok overnight, it ended up referring to itself as MechaHitler before being switched off.

If one more company does a HILARIOUS BANTZ video of a bellend dressed in a parka and bucket hat in their pub/shop/restaurant/office I swear to God…

Just caught up with Prodigy at Glastonbury. What a show. Even though I won’t be able to see properly for 3-5 working days.

I’m not on the Tik Tok but even before I watched it in the comments, I KNEW he’d also be wearing a baseball cap. A classic Millstone look.

Truly awful news about Jota. Young, talented and newly married with young kids. RIP fella.

Mrs S is away with work this week. We share duties pretty well normally but I can’t express how much admiration I have for single parents who do this all the time. Absolute heroes 🫑

The replies to the official City account on here after the β€œdefeat” are both hilarious and making my teeth itch.

Catching up on the (many) bits I missed from Glastonbury (because kids). Definitely the way to do it. Skip through the intolerable shite bits at 30 speed 🀌🏼

Turns out it’s incredibly difficult to have a conversation about TLS termination points when your balls are stuck to your inner thigh. Who’d have thought.

The BBC say they don’t want controversy & divisive statements & yet they allow flags like this on screen
