@jasonkpargin.bsky.social giant crabs (or maybe no giant crabs) spotted in my house here in the UK.

Cheeky Call My Bluff tonight!

Is @gruntleigh.bsky.social now setting cryptic clues on Only Connect?

Today I finally visited a location I've been meaning to go to since 1977 or 1983. I even took the Brig with me. And yes, I just humming the jaunty little 'Turlough steals and crashes a car' ditty as I walked around. #DoctorWho

Living in the now is for me the only way to fully embrace it , thank you all for being in it with me 🥰❤️🥰

There are a multitude of ways to win a football match. Tonight we needed * a) an inspired goal keeping performance b) resolute defending from all players c) a good goal d) brilliant corners from our captain Et voila, 3 points #BlackburnRovers * one of the list is a lie

The ever so charming concourse at Bristol City away end. If Dickens had been a stadium designer, he'd have come up with this grim monstrosity. Even the Head Steward is called Uriah Brizzlegate.

There's a rant in #Digger that is effectively that oil is more important than people. Trump has clearly taken this as an inspirational speech.

91 goals in 125 matches I wonder if Kane would have been as successful if he'd stayed as Isaac Yankem DDS

A friend and former colleague of mine is now a professional is illustrator. She's posted this on Instagram and I can't help but think of @anboa4.bsky.social 🤣 🥕 🐇

Out and about in Shrewsbury and there's a time line in the shape of the River Severn snaking Mara-like around the town, depicting the history of the Earth. Nice to see they've included the Alzarian's finest hour. @gruntleigh.bsky.social

It seems appropriate at the #LDCONF to have a cheese and onion pasty. They are delicious hot ... or cold. @markpackuk.bsky.social

Join us at the Liberal Democrat Conference #LDConf today as we discuss the public’s priorities for the NHS and social care with @ipsosintheuk.bsky.social​​. 📍 Room 1B, Brighton Centre (inside the secure zone) 🕑 13:45–14:45

Hadn't realised how stupid the NHS dentistry situation is. Nearly 4x qualified - many highly qualified - available dentists as vacancies... but can't fill them as they're not from the UK. Madness. And certain other parties policies will be even more damaging to health & social care. 🫩 #LDConf

Last time I was at the Brighton Centre was to see Harry Enfield & Paul Whitehouse. I suspect today's event will be a bit different as at the ripe old age of 57 I'm at my first ever political conference. #LDConf @libdems.org.uk @markpackuk.bsky.social

Here is the full packaging for the upcoming Mr Benn dvd release. All the cartoons have been restored & look Fabulous. There are loads of extras, including a cd of Mr Benn - The Music. We hope you love it!! Please pass the word...

I fear that my brother hasn't watched Alien:Earth !

I've been to Button Moon

We've gotta make the Monorail Simpsons episode required viewing for every city councilor in the country. Every single thing he says here is a lie. A Potemkin Village Imaginarium.

Whoever decided to include The Punisher in #Spider-man #BrandNewDay deserves a bonus. A very big bonus.

How to simply say theres a need to address social care and also protect universal health provision, avoiding the model favoured by those starting with "Re".

this should have been that new bbc campaign

Prior to getting Odeon Limitless post covid in Sept 2021 (making it sound like another virus) been to far more movies; previously was selective viewing so nothing stands out as woeful. Since then, 2 films have scored 1.5 / 10 for me - Moonfall and Iron Lung. Terrible, terrible films.

Lowe and Farage. Two peas in a pod. Both backed by Musk. Both want to scrap the ban on handguns. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

@markpackuk.bsky.social hopefully you knew this!

On my way, Clacton.

Happy 78th birthday NHS. Obviously if you want to see it celebrate its 88th (or even it's 83rd), you know which parties to avoid in a general election when it arrives in 2029. (Picture from Amnesty International UK)

If #Mbappe moved around the UK, would he be Mrolle, Mteacakee, Mbarme, Mcobe, Mstottiee, Mmuffine ?

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios

At #Utopia last weekend, @sophiealdred.bsky.social was asked to recommend a @bigfinish.bsky.social that'd make a great TV story. She suggested 'Protect & Survive' so I thought I'd get it. Should have guessed it'd be a @jonnymorris.bsky.social story. 😀 Just got to find time to listen now.

I hope the PM agrees to a peaceful transition of power and Andy Burnham doesn't end up lying on the floor in a Keir Starmer wig.

Without wanting to make any rather large hairy lumps jealous, @gruntleigh.bsky.social , today I got a hug and a kiss from the ever so lovely & the first person I clearly remember @manningofficial.bsky.social . 😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰 Always my Jo. Here she is autographing between sneaky bites of cookies.

Safely ensconced at Kents Hill ahead of #Utopia on Friday-Sunday. #DoctorWho conventions are such fun, and as its not meltingly hot unlike last year, it'll no doubt be even an better weekend from Fantom Events.

Space 1999 is one of my favourite series. I'm not sure there's ever been sets as effective or impressive in any science fiction programme than series one in particular. It's the ceilings that really make it. @gerryanderson.bsky.social

GB News is trying to gut the BBC. Their radical plan would force shows like Strictly and The Traitors to be axed or hidden behind a Netflix-style paywall. Sign the petition to say NO to a BBC subscription model: act.38degrees.org.uk/act/no-subsc...

I wonder if Ogrons react to singing like this too? @gruntleigh.bsky.social

Do you still have the badge @gruntleigh.bsky.social ? Is yours bigger than Adric's?

"This country has been sick. This country needs healing. This country needs medicine. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that what this country really needs right now, is a Doctor." Think this up and coming politician might be onto something...

Photographer Carina Letelier Baeza captured a stunning "Arctic Dragon" forming across the sky

@gruntleigh.bsky.social it'll be about who stole the nanas. It's always about who stole the nanas. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Absolutely loving the live video footage of the dark side of the Moon from the Orion spacecraft. #ArtemisII

It's fascinating how many people interact with art purely through the lens of censoring it. I'm not even talking about activists or politicians, just regular readers/viewers/etc who immediately take to the internet to say, "Why were they allowed to create this??" Just bizarre

If only it was so easy to dismiss him, eh @gruntleigh.bsky.social

The greatest Doctor's autograph added to that of the greatest producer of one of the box set of one of the greatest seasons. #DoctorWho
