I told in person already, but it bears being put in writing, thank you for your talk - it was wonderfully joyful.

Now Iโ€™m off to look up the sexy firefighter show.

I attended the first #ffconf in 2009, and back today after a 10 year absence. Itโ€™s definitely 16! (And I feel old now)

There is a sitcom trope where a male protagonist completely changes some aspect of their identity to attract a woman, and all other characters and the audience see them as completely ridiculous and insincere, but the protagonist is blind to the ridicule.

This is not a post about the Labour Party.

I find a mindset shift in training from โ€œI am training to get fasterโ€ to โ€œI am training to make it feel easierโ€ helps. Youโ€™re not trying to run 100 miles, just to keep banking as many easy miles as you can.

Realised that Iโ€™m now treating funny viral videos in the same way footballers celebrate goals โ€”

1) initial joy,
2 sudden panic it might be AI/offside
3) lengthy investigation as joy saps away
4) conclusion, joy modulated through fatigue if proven legit/onside, but angry and gutted if AI/offside

Ed Davey, "I'm afraid Nigel Farage should be apologising for helping cause this problem in the first place"

"Before Brexit we didn't have a small boats problem because we had 27 return agreements with EU countries and we could return people"

-Maybe we should call them Farage's Brexit Boats

[me, a journalist who spends all day every day on a social media app where the discovery algorithm is personally controlled by its owner, captain birdseye] you know, a lot of people are talking about fish fingers, we should probably cover that

Would be nice to not go 1-0 down to an early defensive error every week, but 9 goals in two games is hard to argue with as a start to the season.

Itโ€™s set me to wondering if I could get into DBR shape again (or arguably for the first time) in a yearโ€ฆ

Where is the first of your photos taken then if not Crib Goch (which is what I had assumed)?

Rhinogs somewhere?

Iโ€™m envisaging Mariona hoofing long balls over the top for Russo and Kelly to feed off Katie Reid knock downs.

I might start Blackstenius over Russo for that role tbh, but the good news is that I can do that within the allowed numbering system.

Iโ€™m here for Katie Reid as an old fashioned - Duncan Ferguson-esque - โ€œtarget manโ€

My vague understanding is that it was broadly impossible to make a 3.5mm jack waterproof.

For most of these people I swear their entire understanding of sport is based on top-flight (menโ€™s) football and the Olympics.

Itโ€™s the equivalent of someone claiming to be really into music because they watch Top Of The Pops every week.
