I set aside time to study and CloudFlare has taken the Open Uni website down. Noooo...

The Green Man Festival in Bradford on Avon has been cancelled and the Bradford Roots Folk Festival has been put on hold until 2027, which always includes a Wassail.

That's tempting fate, that.

I don't know if it's a getting older thing, or a state of the world thing, or something that's changed in me since my ASD diagnosis, but the thought of the terror that poor woman experienced made me feel sick.

When I was younger, I enjoyed true crime content. I just tried listening to a podcast and the discussion around a young woman being murdered, while a voice actor put on a grisly voice pretending to be the killer, was so upsetting that I had to just stop.

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

β€œIf my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! πŸ”₯πŸ”Š

Will Monkeys Become Britain's New Big Cats? A rational look at the looming risk of loose primates in post-licensing Britain

Did you know that in 2026 the law around keeping monkeys as pets is changing? Here, I explore what that means for the British Big Cat folklore... www.theghostgeek.com/p/will-monke...

I genuinely cannot believe the engagement with my blog in it's new home as The Ghost Geek. I've been going through some stuff, and decided to make this move as a project to focus on. The support has been so lovely.

If you’re gong to stand outside of someone’s house and argue at almost midnight, the least you can do is ensure your enunciate so that I can understand what you’re arguing about.

There is only one reason Trump directed Bondi to investigate specific names in the Epstein files.

It’s so the DOJ can stonewall growing calls for their full release.

Not long ago, the DOJ declared there was nothing to investigate.

You are witness to the most blatant coverup in American history.

When I was writing about monkeys becoming the new big cats of Britain, I genuinely had a moment where I wondered if I was tempting fate, and one morning in 2026 I'll open my curtains to find a capuchin perched on the roof beneath my window...

People are often surprised when I don’t dismiss out of hand reports that someone has seen a big cat in England. My latest post also lays out why I’m adding capuchins, spider monkeys and friends to that list.

β€œBut you’re a skeptic!”

Precisely. I follow the data. πŸ†

The mental health nurse told me I needed to start getting out of the house and going for walks. So today I went for a stupid walk for my stupid mental health, and it DID make me feel better actually so… fair enough.

I just remembered going to a first aid training course with a colleague who'd never done one before (I'd done like 6 at that point) and he asked me if we'd be practicing CPR on the other attendees, like we did bandages the day before.

I said "I bloody hope not!"

Not even the first ghost hunters I've encountered using these very murders. I face palmed when I realised.

Investigating a case involving some unethical ghost hunters who have linked their crap evidence to the real murders of children.

I hate it here.
