Very annoying when you just miss out on free shipping

I can’t help but wonder what other names were on the shortlist.

Looking far from comfortable, I attempt to control a kayak.

Looking far from comfortable, I attempt to control a kayak.

When they asked me if I wanted to go sea kayaking, I thought they meant did I want to "go see kayaking", which would have been much more boring.
Thanks for a fun day Team Halfords!

Looking magnificent, like a regal lion, Danny holds a kayak paddle like a royal standard, a crown-like bike helmet that secures his legacy as King of the Road, and for some reason a small kettle. Also not sure why he's got his foot on a plastic bucket.

Danny age 5-ish wearing his favourite Halfords BMX top he thought made him look like a big mean BMX guy.

Hard to believe it’s 20 years this summer since Yes Man was published. When they realised, my old pals at Halfords offered me a whole day of Yeses to celebrate... and when I say "old pals", I mean I literally used to dress as a member of staff when I was five.

A member of the radio show team cancelled at the last minute, so I threw the whole show out. Which meant I ended up talking about plums for one whole hour.

With a TikTok ban looming, I’m putting it out there that I will, for a small fee, send you a 19 second video of me doing a rehearsed dance to a song you’ve never heard of.

Tailoring/seamstress people, I have a question. I've got a peacoat/reefer jacket and I really wish it had a pocket on the inside left. It's got a very shallow diagonal pocket inside right but that's not deep enough to put a phone or anything in safely. Is 'adding a pocket' a faff/pricey job?

Every time I get a Meal Deal, when they ring the price up I want to say β€˜well, I think we’ve got ourselves a deal!’ and offer a handshake. I’ve not tried it, in my heart I know it wouldn’t go down well.

It felt a little orchestrated… the number of comments from the angry mock-offended seemed far higher than the tweet’s spread would warrant. Oh well!
