Shearer, Champion and Clattenberg choosing, tonight, to believe in the super-strict interpretation of handball that they have previously, with different participants, vehemently been full "game's gone" against.

I have booked two shows between those suggested here and on Twitter. I still have plenty of windows so there's definitely a chance I'll add more. But also want to leave options open for word-of-mouth and fun flyers when I get there. Which will be tomorrow. It is time....

Last call for @edfringe.bsky.social @edfringecomedy.bsky.social @edfringefocus.bsky.social Fringe shows to see. I'm starting to buy my tickets this weekend. #edfringe

Ok, it's time. 14 days til @edfringe.bsky.social starts, 21 days until I arrive. I have an open schedule so I am after suggestions for shows to see. Mainly comedy, cabaret or theatre (preferbly not too heavy, but open to serious if it's intriguing). I promise to book at least 2 replies. 1/3

The rules: this is NOT 1st come 1st served. If I like the look it's on the shortlist, and I may or may not then decide to attend. I'll be up from 8th - 25th. I'm just a punter and wield no influence. I just want to see some good stuff that I maybe hadn't noticed in the programme. 2/3

I put out this call last year (on Twitter) and ended up buying tickets for 21 shows (out of about 80-90 people who responded). Several were ones I'd already clocked in the programme, but I also uncovered some hidden gems I'd have never otherwise seen. Pitch away! #edfringe #edinburghfringe

So I was sitting in the Pleasance Dome, just behind NZ Taskmaster's assistant & ardent Fulham fan Paul Williams watching the 1st game of the season when Joshua Zirkzee scored with 3 minutes left to steal yet another one. I slumped. He slumped. Honestly, I'll swap this for that. #MUNFUL #FACup

Look, lads. He left you. You weren't good enough for him. Stop wallowing on the stairs in your housecoat weeping into your gin. It's been ages. I guess you never forget your true love, eh? But he's moved on, somewhere better. Be happy for him, eh? You've got Tom now, who has settled for you.

The geopolitical talk started at around 7pm, just as the last Brussels sprout disappeared. It is still ongoing. Remarkably, it took until 11:30pm for talk to turn to Israel and Palestine, at which point, having contributed about 2 points, I tapped out. Merry Christmas! #joinin

Catching up on Junior #Taskmaster and, not going to be the first to say this, but in my mind I can't help making an association between peas and something else involved with Taskmaster (which is both childish and... not). #Grandaddy.

You are up to date.
