What football-loving Scottish kid hasn’t dreamt of doing this for their country? Absolute stuff dreams.

Can’t believe it. Absolutely incredible. We’re going to the WORLD CUP!!!!! 🥲

I really hope the Hungary fans who were sat in front of me in Stuttgart at the Euros last year and made a point of laughing in my face when they scored a late winner, were at that game against Ireland. Karma’s a bitch.

I never lie!

Looking good (but then, you always look good).

The council changed the bin schedule and several folk in the neighbourhood clearly didn’t get the message and put out the wrong bins. Should be fun and games when they get home from work.

Imagine committing an horrific crime and your punishment is to be moved into a luxury private estate and forced to use a surname.

Unbelievable and unsavoury, what has come out of Celtic Park tonight. No doubt Brendan will fire off a statement in the morning contradicting Desmond and we’ll all be treated to a very public and unedifying spat. What a shambles this season is turning into.

I might have to leave my local community FB group. The levels of stupidity from some people are starting to do my head in.

You make a compelling case.

At SWG3 waiting for Those Damn Crows to hit the stage. Been looking forward to this one for a while.

Having just watched the trailer, I feel confident in guessing it’s the latter.

A screenshot of the synopsis for a movie titled ‘The VelociPastor’. It reads: ‘After losing his parents, a priest travels to China, where he inherits a mysterious ability that allows him to turn into a dinosaur. At first horrified by this new power, a hooker convinces him to use it to fight crime. And ninjas.’

Somehow, this movie manages to sound like the greatest ever made and the worst ever made, at the same time.

Off to see them live tonight in Glasgow. Should be a great night.

Just watched the John Candy documentary - I Like Me. Cannot recommend it enough. What a beautiful human being he was. A magnificent, underrated actor too. What a gift to be so universally loved.

National Album Day today, so I had planned to visit the record fair at Candleriggs, but a points failure on the trains has scuppered that. I’d been looking forward to it, as well. Gutted.

Thanks! Wasn’t easy to get - they’re bloody fast!

A robin in mid-flight

This robin has been keeping us entertained this afternoon. I filled up the feeder and it has claimed it, chasing off coal tits and blue tits and even a magpie. It keeps flying up to the window, hovering briefly, looking in at us, then flying away. The cats are going mental! 🤣

Greece got mugged tonight, but I’m not complaining. That referee is woeful, though. No doubt the SFA will offer him a job.

Celtic need a massive clear out next summer, if not sooner. Too many players are done and the manager is living on his reputation. A complete reset is required.

About to head out to my first of two Frank Turner gigs this week. Should be a good one.

I’m starting to think Pat Bonner’s complete inability to pronounce surnames is some sort of psychological condition.

He’s had umpteen attempts at pronouncing ‘Tounekti’ today and has mangled it in a different way each time. I think my favourite was ‘Tookenicky’.

@sennydreadful.bsky.social I have literally just finished reading Titanchild - and wanted to say how much I bloody loved it! Perfect conclusion to the story and a terrific ending. Your books just keep getting better!

I also bought The Sleepless for my 13-yr-old daughter and she was delighted.

Aww that’s wonderful! Very happy for you both. Congratulations!

Russell Martin is doing an amazing job, I must say. Lovely.

Someone being an horrific excuse for a human being doesn’t give anyone the right to shoot them.

Have Celtic hired Tam Mullen as Head of PR?

Because we’re so used to getting pumped. A draw away to the top seeds in the group is a good result. I mean, we’ll probably get gubbed at Hampden, so we’ll take comfort in what we can!

I was just thinking the same thing.

That’s a decent result for Scotland, tonight. Denmark are a good team, so a point away against them is a good one.
