Dr Natt Day

Something a bit full circle about coming back to Southampton to be a PhD examiner.

To keep up the impressive: back home, showered and in bed within 2.5 hours of landing.

With navigating a coach and 2 night buses back to SE London.

This is extraordinary.

Despite the Ryanair delay, I continue to be impressed about how fast I can get myself off the plane, through passport control and onto a coach back to central in 23 minutes.

Sad to see that @dicefm.bsky.social seem to have now become a profiteering from resale platform.

Seeing a ticket originally pre-sale at £73 jumping to £81 on their 'resale'? Big nah man.

Yes please to that!

Off for another jaunt this weekend as I head out to Riga. Would love to crowd-source some more places to see, things to do, places to eat that are tried and tested by trusted BlueSky Humans

(A lot of blog recommends seem to have been in part sponsored and I'm just a bit hmmm...)

I don't know what I've done to offend the Late Night Lizzie Line Gods but I keep arriving and there's 15+ minute waits for an Abbey Wood train and I sigh.

The fact that all my targeted ads at the moment are of the company that owns the co-working place the office is is just -__-

Nine Inch Nails, Smashing Pumpkins and Coldplay this summer

No love for the bus driver that just caned it through a puddle and drenched me (even though I had taken many a tactical step AWAY from the road and puddles)

Weird question but... Hand-luggage travellers: any recommendations for best compression packing cubes to maximise space?

Oh no to being woken up by construction work at 7:30 in the morning.

It has been a real up, down, weird kicker of a final week to January.

Thank god I'm on a long weekend in Zagreb to say goodbye to this miserable little month.

Nine Inch Nails playing at The O2 the one week I happen to be in the US this year... Solution? Fly to Amsterdam to see them the following week.

I am so annoyed at this whole thing and I don't want any of them to win any money tbh #TheTraitors

Because January seems to be lasting about 9 months at this point, I am at the point where I'm basically bribing myself with dopamine hits almost daily.

Probably not the right coping mechanism but we move.

Someone on this bus has KFC and the grumble my stomach just made in response was frankly embarrassing

Thank January for gigs and making me feel something that's not just gloom for a few hours

Oh yeah! Though he got banished pretty quickly if I recall. And also the rest of the cast being nice kind if overshadowed him. Here it's majority like that and it's setting me on edge

Trying to recall who from S1 you're referring to here as I can't remember disliking anyone as intensely as this bunch.

Honestly this group is absolutely full of selfish people who are making it very personal. Also most of them are unlikeable imo. A Traitor will definitely win as its easier to play people in this state.

S2 was golden, likeable people, tongue-in-cheek, pantomime villany

The great thing about how seriously and personal they're making it is the Roundtable becomes an absolute bloodbath #TheTraitors

Well Tyler, now you know how it feels huh? #TheTraitors

Wow, this is a real mean-spirited group this year. Like they all seem to have forgotten it's a game and are making it so personal #TheTraitors

Kas saying he's tired and honestly same #TheTraitors

I've already got to the point where I'm angry watching The Traitors because the way people are piling on Kas purely because he's intelligent and he's a Doctor.

Just utterly baffling.

Second full day of working 2025 and I'm basically just like

I have not been to any though that could be because flight prices are a bit more ££

Trying to work out where to go in Europe for a weekend break is giving me a headache. Too much choice. Don't know where to start.

Brisk morning walk on a blustery Bognor beach and we're back on another day of musical vibes!
