We’ve had Heart Christmas on in the car for a few weeks!

Mrs Norris is such a vile character.

A Starbucks gingerbread latte

First gingerbread latte of the”the season”. I’ll definitely not be having another until closer to Christmas. This one didn’t taste right.

You look…. perky!

That’s more security and lasers here than there was in the Louvre! #TraitorsUK #CelebrityTraitors

I generally wear jeans most days and for most things, including flying. However for long haul flights I wear something with an elasticated waist as you are more likely to retain fluid the longer you fly and feel bloated and jeans may not be terribly comfortable.

As in most things in life I’m slightly better than average.

Craigavon: Marlborough House 'marmite' building listed - BBC News The B1 listing is for buildings of local importance, which provide a good example of a period or style.

One of interest to @c20society.bsky.social. Personally I think it’s fantastic news.

I’m a bit better than average. Story of my life 😀

A smoked, salted chocolate tart.

Watching ‘Simply Nigella’ and she’s making her smoked, salted chocolate tart. Here’s one I made from the archives - Christmas 2015! How time flies, eh @nigella.bsky.social ?

There’s an example of one station clock going back one hour live at the end of night. It must have been in the 80s when electronic clicks arrived on TV stations (Channel 4 being the first example).

A whole generation of good Labour MPs were either unelected in 2019 or went to the backbenches/defected under Corbyn. It left Starmer with a small pool of MPs to appoint to the shadow cabinet. He then decided to keep them in post when elected to govt. Too many promoted beyond their ‘talent’.

In this day and age there’s no justification for such a truncated cast recording album. 10 songs is insulting, especially as 2 had already been released. The vinyl will be the same selection. Another example of vinyl dictating other music formats.

I had a rare opportunity to watch Newsnight last night. They were almost writing off the Caerphilly by-election as a nailed on Reform win, almost dismissing Plaid. Despite this Plaid won quite handily. Typical BBC wankfest for Reform.

After watching the Hollyoaks x Brookside edition I’ve one thought. Barry Grant maybe 64 but I still would 😂

Thank you my dear.

Time for the 2025 NI Social Media Awards. A great excuse to get dressed up.

Trying out the new Moxy Belfast. Practically brand new. It still has its new hotel smell!

A SAD lamp

I’ve purchased a SAD lamp in an effort to get through the endless dark mornings. When I do WFH it’s hard to get proper daylight and it seriously affects my mood.

This week I did my first 5 day week in the office since March 2020. I won’t be doing it again too soon!

Watching #TOTP I realise that I was too young in the 80s to appreciate how gorgeous Chris Lowe was!

Amazing first day at the Four Seasons in Buenos Aires. Recent visitors include Katy Perry & Kylie Minogue. And now us 😂

First leg of the Rainbow Tour almost complete. Off to Buenos Aires tomorrow. #ChrisJohnRainbowTour 🌈

Limited Gorka this year, but Chris Robshaw, Nitro and Lewis Cope will help fill the void! #Strictly #BBCStrictly

Time for the weekend and then just one week of work before our holiday.

The absolute clarity of the 2025 mix of Free As A Bird is amazing ❤️

Count me in!

I do like these 👍🏻

Back in our happy place in Sitges. We love El Piano 🎹 @johnmunn.bsky.social

DUB ✈️ BCN. Proxima parada…. Sitges.
